Book Review- Sunshine and Rain

Two young ladies with opposite names but the same goal… never let the streets take you under.

Meet two young women from the hood who are destined to meet and sure to win your hearts. When Sunshine learns that her mother is dying from AIDS she thinks that her world in coming to and end, not realizing that it is just beginning. When she gives her mother her last kiss goodbye, she is then introduced to her fly caseworker Ms. Waters who takes her to her new foster home where she meets Cathy.

Cathy is a very beautiful woman that knows how to hold it together. A beautiful home, a nice car, and full of love... but there is a secret life that allows her to be at the top and that is something she doesn’t want to share with anyone… especially her new foster child.

When Rain and her two young brothers wake up to prepare themselves for the day ahead, they know something is wrong when their father’s door is locked and Rain’s receives a call that he doesn’t show up for work. What could have happened to cause Rain and her brothers to be thrown in foster care, her brother placed in juvie, and their separation for a long period of time?

When Sunshine and Rain meet, there is a bit of jealousy but nothing compared to what they goes down when Sunshine has an encounter with the dude that Rain adores… Terrance. While this wannabe hustler Terrance plays games with Rain, he never mentions the connection nor the disdain that he has for their foster mother Cathy. What could be the beef between the two that could cost people their lives? You will never know until you read the book!

Although the book has a rushed ending you will be surprised as to how it ends. A book two is definitely in order.

Sunshine and Rain is an awesome page turner that captures your interest from the very start.
