A Hustlers Wife By. Nikki Turner pgs.1-98

Throughout the story the main character Yarni and her life changes dramatically. From where she starts in life as a teenager was very good. She was an honor student, she had a good relationship with her mother, she lived in a high class neighborhood where there were hardly any African Americans living there except just a couple including her and her mom, and she was also the captain of her cheer leading squad at school. This was the life she lived and she didn't care what anyone thought of it either. All of this changed when she met the young man she met through her friend. While she was with him her life started to change and she didn't notice it until she got older. A couple years into their relationship they both got married and she was still only a teenager.Years later there was a breaking point of both of their lives.She started getting out of control, and her husband Started telling her just anything.She started going out partying and dating only for the money from men that she knew had a very high budget. So far her life went from the girl who knew to much to the ghetto girlfriend of the neighborhood drug dealer.The point of this is the life of someone can change in a flash due to the people you can just be hanging around with.
