A Product of the System (Out for Self Series) by Ms. Michel Moore    384 pages

The best laid plans.   When Simone gets pregnant she sees a money making opportunity, she can easily manipulate two of the men she has been messing with.   One of the gangbangers is a good man at heart who wants to take care of her and "his" son.   He provides for her by buying groceries, paying her rent/bills, buying her clothes, furniture, jewelry, whatever she wants.   The other gangbanger she is playing is dangerous.  His temper is easily set off.   She gentles him with pampering and sensual pleasures which keeps him coming around and buying her clothes, jewelry, drinks, but if something sets him off he will beat her down and the baby, too, without a second thought nor any remorse.   Add to all that the two baby daddies are in rival gangs.  How Simeone managed to keep the two men from running into each other in her apartment ... oh wait, she didn't!   It is all about to explode and she and the baby are right in the center of it all!  Good story!  Readers won't be able to put this one down.    I recommend this one to mature teens (for content, language and violence) on up to seniors.   If you like an edge to your stories you will like this one.
