Aphrodite Greer was born and raised in the bricks—projects in Jagoda Bay. She met the love of her life, Baguette, on that very soil. The ghetto goddess had her entire life mapped out for her, and just like most life plans, things took a turn for the worse. Infidelity, losing her baby girl Athena, and constant fights with her lover's mistress turned her from a rigid, dope boy's queen to a soft, put-up businesswoman. With five years between their failed relationship, Baguette and Aphrodite remain best friends, and since Baguette has moved on, his current girlfriend has also joined their circle of friendship. Tuscany Payne is everything a reformed dope boy could want in a partner. She has beauty, personality, and brains. Not only is she the total package, but she also helped turn playboy Baguette into a man. But as time passes, Tuscany feels helpless because she can not seem to help her man get over his grief of losing his only child. In this exhilarating novel, you'll not only laugh with the characters, but you'll love with them, cry with them, and feel for them in the end. Some say three is a crowd. With secrets that go beyond Athena's grave, the saying may be true.
