Hittin’ the Bricks
Sintesi dell'editore
Have you ever been betrayed by those you love? Violated in the worst kind of way? And no matter how hard you tried to fight your way out of a trick bag, no matter how tall you tried to walk, did the cold streets of life lead you right back to your grimy destiny?
The bestselling author of G-Spot and Candy Licker, Noire pens the intense tale of Eva Patterson, a tragic daughter of the ghetto who finds peril on the streets of New York. With an abusive mother and a heroin monkey on her back, Eva experiences a series of traumatizing events, forcing her to flee her Brooklyn tenement and seek refuge with her beloved cousin Fiyah in Harlem.
But fate is not done wreaking havoc in Eva's life yet. Poised on the brink of progress, Eva meets King Brody, a vicious Harlem drug lord who runs Bricks, the hottest rap club in town. Unbeknownst to Eva, her cousin's thirst for glory leads him to cut a killer deal with Brody. A trade-off is arranged: Fiyah gets a recording contract - and Brody gets Eva.
The problem is, Eva already has a man: Ice Mello Williams, a hot Harlem rapper who has a bitter feud going with Fiyah and is determined to seize his recording contract.
Torn between the man she loves and a violent kingpin, Eva becomes an unwilling pawn in a deadly game of cat and mouse. Can Fiyah and Mello help her elude the sadistic jaws of Brody, or will she end up losing her life in his brutal trap?
Noire is an author from the streets of New York, a #1 Essence bestselling author, and the editor-in-chief of NoireMagazine.com.

garbage. promotes child rape, human trafficking,
this is not an erotica novel. it's a snuff book. it promotes children being raped and beaten as sexy romance scenes. "14 year old being double fisted in the ass and hit with a cattle prong" or grown man molesting an 8 year old while she sleeps is not erotica. this author promotes malignant masculinity. not to mention the role of women and girls in this book is only sex. the men are ignorant stereotypes, drug dealer, ghetto rapper, fake ass king pin. corney vernacular like. "his raps was so fire he had them (the audience) coming on his dick" this author promotes domestic violence, torture, rape, violence against women and child porn, child trafficking as erotica. do better. the narrator read well.

Sad story
The story was traumatic and sad. Half of the sexual encounters are brutal and there is to much violence. Though this book wasn't for me.. I was committed to listening out to the end only to find out how it ended and to see if Brody got what he deserved... to die.

Could and would not finish this!
Right from Chapter 1 I was questioning who could think of and write such horrific things. This book was so hard to listen to that I could not even finish it.

Addiction and fear is crazy
This book was good. I hate to see or hear about parents not protecting their kids. It’s disgusting. I was glad that Eva overcame that but it’s said to see family throw you under the bus or drag you into mess. Overall the book was pretty good. It was short and straight to the point.

what a tear jerker
I was praying for the girl to make it, even though I knew it's work of fiction. somehow, I was wanting this little girl to make it through all the hell she went thru, which she did for a minute but it just wasn't long enough
