Ready & ABLE Teens: Ebony's Bad Habit (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781453616062)

Has a good girl gone bad or is it just a classic case of opposites attract? Ebony Pearson has not had an easy life. After her mother dies from AIDS, Ebony is forced to leave her hometown of Atlanta, Georgia and move to Rochester, New York to live with her aging grandmother. Being a survivor, she quickly takes on a part-time job and becomes like a mother to her younger sister Kayla. Determined to make something positive out of her life, Ebony joins ABLE (Adolescent Black Leaders & Entrepreneurs), vowing to keep her grades up and her nose clean . . . that is until she meets Jaylen Tisdale. Jaylen is cute, fun, has a nice car, and is seemingly supportive; however, the word on the street is that he is nothing but trouble. Ebony's best friend Fawn is certain that Jaylen is bad news and is willing to sacrifice everything to protect Ebony, including their friendship. In the midst of school, work, problems at home, an upcoming talent show, a budding relationship, and a dying friendship, Ebony just wants to escape . . . and thinks she might have found the perfect way to do so.
