A Girl Like Me (Ni-Ni Girl Chronicles)
A high school beauty is out to save her troubled family when she meets a hip-hop Prince Charming in this YA urban Cinderella story.
She’s got a voice like Keisha Cole and attitude to burn. She’s the body-rockin’, Bebe-sporting girl everyone in her high school wants to be—or be with. But behind her picture-perfect image, sixteen-year-old Elite has a crack-addicted mother, no father in sight, and is secretly raising her sister and two brothers on her own.
Now a radio contest has put her up-close-and-personal with mega-hot singer Haneef and their chemistry is too sizzling for Elite to stop pretending. As the clock ticks down fast for this ‘hood Cinderella, she has only one shot to save her family and make all of her dreams come true.
