Justin Mackenzie is what your parents call a bad example. But some people cut out the bad part of him, even if bad is all he is. Maybe it was the bad gene that caught Addison Nickel- the new girl's attention. Having just moved from New York and into her dads apartment, Addison finds that the back streets of her new town in Georgia are a hub for money making. Drug lords and pimps are often referred to as being the same job. Addison's not sure how to fit in with her nicer things, but Justin seems to be inclined to take her under his wing and show her the ropes. But like they say, there's a price you gotta pay for finer things... And there's always blood involved. New Kid On The Block is a book about greed, lust, love, addiction, and overcoming trials. With characters that have a narrow vocabulary but wide personality, there's a character for everyone to love. From the top to the bottom, this book shows a teenage girl's experience of her own little hell... That doubles as her home.
