Reviewed by: Angela Coleman

Mya and Diamond are friends to the end. Growing up in the projects they were as thick as thieves. Who knew that's what they would turn into as adults? Mya wants top dog status in the ATL drug game and is prepared to get there by any means necessary. Diamond, wants to finish hair school and own a salon. Mya decides to put Diamond down with her hustle to get money. She teaches Diamond how to pick out the top dog in a crew, and to use her sex appeal to lure him in and get all his possessions at the end of the night.

With their biggest set up to date, Mya puts Diamond on her target but doesn't tell Diamond everything she knows about him but hopefully just enough to get him for half of what he's worth. When the plan goes wrong all hell breaks loose.

I must say I was very pleased with this story. The plot was well put together and the drama had you on the edge of your seat trying to figure out what in the world Mya would do next. Good luck to Ms. Ridley in the future; she truly has a talent for story telling.

1. What did you like best about this book?
What I like best about the book was the fact that all the characters were fully developed. Each chapter made you want to know what was going to happen next, she didn't leave any stone unturned and that made it a more interesting read.

2. What did you dislike about this book?
Honestly, I didn't dislike anything at all. It was put together and told really well.

3. How can the author improve this book?
The repetitiveness.

Yo, this book was off the hook...I coudn't put this book down for nothing...Yo, Mya, was one crazy B*tch, fo' real. She took ATL by storm, and was more ruthless than the dudes in the book...and Diamond, I loved her character, because she was getting her and did what she had to do to make her career happening....if you haven't read this book yet, please to...you will not be dissapointed...believe me...

I have to agree with the reviewer and give Talk of The Town five stars. This book was very well written, and also flowed. If anyone likes street fiction I suggest they pick up a copy of this hot title. Great job Tonya Ridley...
