The pen is in my hand, so why would I give it to anyone else?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJudy Torres is a Bronx legend, a freestyle music icon, and a voice that helped define a generation. Known as the Queen of Freestyle, Judy rose to fame in the late 1980s with club staples like \"No Reason to Cry,\" \"Come Into My Arms,\" and \"Love You, Will You Love Me.\" She is one of the most recognized and respected figures in the freestyle genre. Her powerful vocals have kept her a fixture of freestyle and dance pop through decades of touring and radio play, and her talent and charisma have simultaneously cemented her as an actress and a beloved New York radio personality. In her memoir, \u003ci\u003eNo Reason to Cry\u003c\/i\u003e, Judy traces her path from a Bronx childhood to a record deal during the explosion of the freestyle phenomenon--and, for the first time in print, she bravely exposes the behind-the-scenes battles she fought along the way. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePeeling back the curtain with shocking candor and grace, Judy gives voice to the parts of her life most people have never seen, including domestic troubles, moments of doubt, and hard-won comebacks. Judy's story is marked by challenges, traumas, disappointments, betrayals, and pain, but it is also a story of hope, resilience, redemption, and a determination to rise above. \u003ci\u003eNo Reason to Cry\u003c\/i\u003e is a lifeline for women who've weathered similar trials and tribulations, offering the lesson Judy learned the hard way: Despite what happens to you in life, you decide how to handle it. YOU are the author of your story.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Judy Torres\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1971678066\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781971678061\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ballast Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/29\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 246\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.00d","brand":"Judy Torres","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":49002188341503,"sku":"9781971678061","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/no-reason-to-cry-judy-torres-9781971678061","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
