Fresh out of a 15-year bid, Amerie Jackson steps back onto the South Side of Chicago—a stranger in the city she once called home.
 
She left young, wild, and reckless. Now, in a world that’s moved on without her, Amerie’s trying to catch up on lost time, lost money, and lost love. But the streets don’t remember her the way she remembers them. Her old crew? Either dead, locked up, or ghosts of their former selves. With nowhere else to turn, she leans on God, hoping He still listens.
 
A second chance appears—steady work, a roof over her head, and a good man who sees more than her rap sheet. But just when things start to look up, Amerie faces her hardest battle yet: her teenage daughter, who’s walking the same crooked line Amerie once ran down.
 
Can Amerie build the bond she never had with her child? Or will old habits, old wounds, and the Wild 100’s drag her right back under?
