From Ratchet To Riches: A Hood Love Tale

Blood is thicker than water.
Family over everything.
Or are they really?

For the Young siblings, they are all they got. For 18 years old Mecca, the well-being of her two sisters and little brother is the only thing she is focused on and worried about. Graduating Valedictorian of her high school and getting accepted into every college she applied for, getting a secondary education is the last thing on Mecca’s mind. After a chance encounter to help out a total stranger, Mecca takes a risk that could separate her from her siblings. But will this risk serve as her downfall or a way for her to elevate their circumstances?

For 17 years old Danielle, surviving her daily hell has left a bitter taste in her mouth, giving her an “I don’t give a dayum” type of attitude and mindset. Along with Mecca, Dani looks after her baby sister and brother, trying her best to keep them safe and fed. However, she carries a dreadful secret that eats away at her beautiful core, creating a rift between the bond she shares with her big sister Mecca.

While everyone else is living their best life in nice clothes and shoes and with food to eat, the Young siblings do whatever it takes to survive the next second. When one tragedy hits, it seems like gasoline is poured on it, extending it to more areas of their lives, causing colossal damage in its quake. Will the Young siblings be able to hold on to each other and choose siblings over everything? Or will their struggle consume them, destroying their close knit relationship?

Survival mode, painful secrets, contested love, blind agendas, and familial betrayal can be found in best-selling author Patrice Balark’s debut series, From Ratchet to Riche$, under Twyla T. Presents publication. Warning: This is a series, so this book contains a cliffhanger. Book one is highly intense, gritty, and spine-tingling, leaving the reader anxious for the next part.
