Description
Taliyah Russo seems to be living the perfect middle class suburban life: supportive parents, good school, devoted friends…but appearances can be deceiving, and when her family’s dark secrets come to light, the façade of perfection crumbles. Taliyah leaves Long Island to live with her grandmother in Red Hook Brooklyn, where she meets two mysterious, treacherous but alluring men who vie for her attention. Avery spends lavishly on her, wooing Taliyah with designer clothes, fast cars, and expensive jewelry. Demarco offers a sympathetic ear when she needs to vent. Caught up in the middle of a twisted love triangle, things get explosive when Taliyah ultimately makes the decision to recklessly ignore the rules of love and keep them both. Turning to these men for the love and support she feels her family has withdrawn, she is quickly pulled into a sordid underworld of drugs, theft and prostitution. As her life spirals out of control, Taliyah searches desperately for a way out of her increasingly perilous situation. A dangerous face-off between the two men results in tragedy for Taliyah. Will she survive to find freedom and love, or is it too late?
About the author
Fanchon Stylezz was born on February 17 in Far Rockaway, Queens. She and her mother relocated several times before settling down in Long Island, New York. While studying Business Ownership and Money Marketing in high school, Stylezz discovered her true passion for writing. Throughout the years she toyed around with the idea of writing movies, but life had other plans for her. As a single mother of two teens and pregnant with her third child, she decided to take medical classes at Hunter Business School. Fanchon graduated two weeks ahead of her class with a 3.9 GPA, and shortly afterwards gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. What should have been a normal recovery changed Stylezz life forever. Two weeks after giving birth she suffered a massive heart attack and was diagnosed with Coronary Artery Disease and Congestive Heart Failure. An Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator was installed in her chest just to keep her alive. Fanchon Stylezz is a survivor and an advocate for Heart Disease treatment and research. She remains strong-willed and outspoken. Having plenty of free time on her hands, she dug back into her bag of many talents and started writing again.
