Middle-class life meets hip-hop culture in Franklin White's compelling story of a woman on a mission to change her life -- and the price she must pay for her success. Synthia Gage lives a very hectic life. While running a household and parenting a teenage daughter, she is also one of New York City's top literary agents -- promoting the work of celebrity authors and bringing in millions of dollars. Although her career is at the height of success, by Synthia's own standards her life is at a standstill: the live-in agreement with her ex-husband has expired, her daughter is preparing for college, and her best friend's never-ending problems are more than she can handle. Ready to shake up her life and reach her full potential, Synthia agrees to represent hip-hop's notorious female rapper Lil' Shae -- despite the star's raunchy lyrics and lewd dress code.
