Only 16: Volumes 1 & 2 Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
Tasha Marshall and Mannie Brown, are two 16 year old teenagers with completely different stories that will make you ache to save them. Tasha a sheltered only child of the great Governor Marshall, has had her life given to her on a silver platter. Whatever her heart desired was at her fingertips. Blessed with two parents that invested time and money into her becoming the perfect image of a child that anyone would want to call their own, comes to naught when their princess began to experience the reality of how harsh it can be to be a teenager and not being properly prepared to handle life. Mannie, also known in the streets as the baddest chick, is a troubled young teen who grew up in a two parent home but not with her natural Father. She wanders dangerously through the temptations of life without the guidance she needs. Her mother completely oblivious to what she is yearning for has to deal with her child when Mannie choices catch up with her in ways that she nor the drama in her life can no longer be ignored.

Thank you!! I have to say Mannie's issues made me look at my youngest daughters relationship with her stepdad. We discussed it and decided they should do more things one on one. She needs to know he loves her. No she's not in the streets like Mannie was but she does act funny when we ask her the simplest question like how was her day, and sometimes she just looks like she's screaming for his attention without quite saying something. You touched on issues a lot of young girls are feeling every day.
In "Only 16", La'Kisha Lott-Wells masterfully tells the tale of what it means to "come of age" in the 21st Century. The challenges and pressures faced by young women in their transition to adulthood have become much more complicated in this modern world. This author provides a very powerful glimpse into the minds of two young women struggling to find their place in their families, and in their world. The book is divided into two volumes, which provides a great insight into the two distinct lives and challenges, and is indicative of the distinct challenges faced by today's youth. I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to see through their eyes and to grow with them as they reconciled the values and beliefs of their parents to form the basis of their independent belief system. I look forward to "the rest of the story".

This was a greet read. I really enjoyed reading it. This would be a great gift for a troubled teen. Even though, I am far from a teenager, it was very insightful. I look forward to any future books from this writer.
Excellent story. I could relate to these well rounded characters. I felt their pain. The fact that the author connects spirituality instead of religion is a plus. Thank you for such an awesome book. I'm going to let my 16 year old grandson read it.
Awesome book; I would recommend it to others & especially teenage girls because this book can show you that no matter what situations you are facing in life; God can see you through it. I look forward to reading any future books La'Kisha Lott-Wells.
