South Bay High's Jayd Jackson finally has her own ride, but that sure doesn't mean her troubles are over. . .
These days, Jayd just can't seem to get a break. Her car is more trouble than it's worth; her girl Mickey is being forced to attend continuation school; and Rah and his ex Sandy are still arguing.
Despite these distractions, Jayd concentrates on making potions for hair and developing her own signature braid technique, which is getting her a lot of respect and money. But then school starts up again, and with it comes more drama. If Jayd wants to keep it all under control, she'll have to look deep into herself and take her destiny into her own hands. . .

Library Journal
April 20, 2009
Verdict: The eighth installment in the author's wildly popular "Drama High" series alternates between inner-city Compton and nearby California beaches, touching on teen parenthood and interracial dating. Her characters' hip teenspeak, laced with mild profanity, is spot-on. Essential for all urban teen shelves. Background: Jayd Jackson keeps herself movin' and is determined not to get dragged down by ex-boyfriends, haters, or her vodka-swilling aunt. Jealousy builds inside her circle until a gun is pulled; Jayd rightfully wonders how one minute they can be kicking it and dancing and the next running from gunshots.Copyright 2009 Library Journal, LLC Used with permission.
