Dear Yvette (Throwback Diaries)

Dear Yvette (Throwback Diaries)

All sixteen year old Yvette Simmons wanted was to disappear. Problem is: she has too many demons for that. Yvetteâ€™s life changed forever after a street fight over a boy ended in a second degree murder charge. Forced to start all over again, sheâ€™s sentenced to live in a group home far from anything or anyone sheâ€™s ever known. She manages to keep her past hidden, until a local cutie, known as Brooklyn, steps in. Slowly, Yvette lets him into her heart and he gives her the summer of her dreams...
Â
But in Yvetteâ€™s world things are never as they seem.
Â
Brooklyn has a few secrets of his own and Yvetteâ€™s past comes back with a vengeance. Will she face life head-on? Will she return to her old ways? Or will an unexpected letter decide her fate?

â€œSimoneâ€™s story is reminiscent of Sistah Souljahâ€™s groundbreaking The Coldest Winter Everâ€¦a hard hitting tale of the inner cityâ€™s unforgiving streets.â€ â€”Library Journal
Â
â€œSimone knows how to tell a storyâ€¦and she can also bring the drama.â€ â€”RT Book Reviews
