Tooley Times

Between the ages of 21-26, Britney Greene goes from a rather innocent/na ve girl to a highly promiscuous woman. Somewhat of an emotional masochist, Britney is obsessed with male attention and acceptance, despite her already being engaged to a God fearing man. Although raised in a low income household and poverty stricken city, Britney begins to beat the odds and create an escape route by landing a coveted job at one of the most prestigious law firms in the country. Being used and abandoned by a former teenage lover, sexual advances made by her boss, and the death of her absentee father are all factors that lead to her unraveling. Whether you are for her demise or against it, this roller coaster of an urban fiction novel will take you through an emotional journey of love, opportunity, and growth. (Britney's story also parallels the gentrification and restructuring of the fictional city of Tooley, Missouri. Even Britney realizes she is a lot like the crime ridden city she calls home).
