Life is hard growing up and being a teen mother, especially when you live in a bad neighborhood. That's how it is for 14 year-old Gayle. She is an African American who has two brothers, a sister and no father. This story is full of drama and romance.

The author's purpose for writing this book is to show young adults how it's like to be a pregnant teen. It's also about living a rough life and trying to stay out of trouble. Gayle found out she was having a second child and she was six weeks pregnant. Her mom found out and took her to a clinic to get an abortion. After that Gayle moved to her uncle's farm, she turned her life around. When I finished reading this book I felt sorry, sad and happy at the same time.

In this book the author made me realize that if you get in trouble you have to pay a price. I found this book rather interesting, because a few parts were hurtful and exciting. It also taught me not to take things for granted.

I would recommend this book to anybody, why? Because it tells you that pregnancy should wait and you should stat out of trouble or you'll regret it later. This book will help you if you're going through rough times.
