Niemals hätte Annegret gedacht, dass jemand ihre Rinderrouladen verschmähen könnte. Aber seit sie Witwe ist, ist alles anders. Und nun muss sie auch noch raus aus ihrem Haus. Unterschlupf findet sie bei ihrer Enkelin Isi in deren Berliner Studenten-WG. Für Annegret eine fremde Welt, in der sie nicht mal mit ihrem Gulasch bei den Mitbewohnern punkten kann. Denn die leben vegan. Überhaupt entpuppt sich die WG als ein Minenfeld der Missverständnisse: Gendern? Containern? Und LGBTQ ist gar keine Grillsauce? Annegret schwirrt der Kopf. Doch je länger sie in der Berliner WG wohnt, desto mehr blüht sie auf.

Camy has what you'd call a hopelessly in-love soul, so falling for the smooth-talking, laid-back playboy Malik is so easy for her to do. But now, she's faced with the problem of getting him to recognize her true love for him and taking claim of her heart, not just her bed.

June Hanson: Calix Moore was like nothing I’d ever experienced in this life. He stormed in with no regard for what it might do to my heart, only his own. I wanted to open up and give him a chance, same as I had the first night we met—the night we threw all caution to the wind and spent twelve passionate hours behind closed doors. But when the sky brightened, and I looked next to me, I knew I could never allow him to see me again. Except fate had other plans and now he’s standing in front of me, at my place of business, with a knowing smirk pulling at his lips.

August Hanson was the silent type, the kind who spoke through his actions and not his words. He possessed enough power to make me feel safe and secure. I was ready to open up and share the parts of myself I’d never shared with another, and then I got hit with a truth that changed everything. There was a slight chance he’d still want me, only he had to accept our baby, too.

The unforgettable narrator of this compelling, thought-provoking debut goes by two names in his two worlds. At the university he attends, he’s Gabriel, a seemingly ordinary, partying student learning about morality at a distance. But in his life outside the classroom, he’s Snoopz, a hard-living member of London’s gangs, well-acquainted with drugs, guns, stabbings, and robbery. Navigating these sides of himself, dealing with loving parents at the same time as treacherous, endangering friends and the looming threat of prison, he is forced to come to terms with who he really is.

Seven years ago, Zella Grisham came home to find her man, Harry Tangelo, in bed with her friend. The weekend before, $6.8 million had been stolen from Rutgers Assurance Corp., whose offices are across the street from where Zella worked. Zella didn't remember shooting Harry, but she didn't deny it either. The district attorney was inclined to call it temporary insanity - until the police found $80,000 from the Rutgers heist hidden in her storage space.

El atropello de Chico B, un acontecimiento demasiado habitual en el entorno hostil donde transcurre la novela, es el detonante de un cambio en los dos protagonistas de esta historia: el narrador y el barrio.
