From the moment she was born to the gritty south side of Chicago, Mocha and her saucy attitude had always found a way to survive. But, when a summer trip to the south leaves her abandoned and alone, she's forced to encounter the true hardships of life-hardships that even the rough streets of Chicago couldn't prepare her for. As her life spirals out of control, Mocha hopelessly withdraws. That is, until she crosses paths with Tommy Girl, an untamable loner withdrama pumping through her veins. The two quickly form an inseparable bond. However, Mocha soon finds herself on a destructive path that will put her to the ultimate test-a test of her values and even her faith in God-leaving her struggling to deal with the outcome of her decisions.
Years later, thousands of miles from a world of dark secrets and selfish actions that she'd dared not speak of, Mocha's convinced herself that time would heal all things; if she buried the past, it'd all go away-but would it?
When an early morning call awakens Mocha with dreadful news, she's forced to revisit the tumultuous past that unfortunately still lies in wait for her return.
