A Rose Among Thorns

Rate this book
Rose, a very attractive 20 year-old, is the oldest child in her family. Circumstances force her to drop out of college to help her struggling family to survive. But, moving from the upper class suburbs of Cherry Hill, New Jersey to West Philadelphia's West Park Housing Project is a culture shock. Her move introduces her to a world where crack addicts, rape, drugs and crime are everyday facts of life. Working at the post-office by day and at Philly's number one strip club by night is hard for Rose. During her night job, she meets a street hustler named Eric. The two share personal things and reveal truths about each other they have never told anyone. As their relationship grows, Rose and Eric find one of life's most important things --true love. Follow the journey of Rose and Eric as they discover a rose among the thorns of life. FIC000000
