Synopsis

Carin Douglas is a fearless young girl, thrust into the role of a stickup kid alongside Brooklyn’s most notorious thugs. She learns to fight, to survive, and ultimately to shine through a series of events that take her from a young girl on the verge to a designer-clad diva with a hot car, an even hotter man, and a million deadly skeletons in her closet. When Carin meets Monty, aka “Money Monty,” he sweeps her off her feet with one romantic gesture after another. Monty is a sexy, powerful man with that legendary Brooklyn swagger and more money than most of his peers in the street. Their urban fairytale soon erupts into passionate sex, bold power moves, and eventually, devastating physical violence between them. When things get explosive, Carin is reminded of the love she knows Monty feels for her and the lavish lifestyle he’s showered her with. But will that be enough to save them? Carin and Monty’s love comes full circle in this epic story of love, loss, pain, and forgiveness. In Ayana Ellis’ second novel, she raises the bar, exposes some ugly truths, and shines a spotlight on the painful reality of domestic abuse. All that glitters isn’t gold in this new novel that is sure to have listeners talking for years to come.
