{"product_id":"not-jaded","title":"Not Jaded","description":"Not Jaded is a jaw dropping urban drama about survival, loyalty, love, and the unbreakable strength of a young woman who refuses to be defeated. In the heart of her Washington, DC neighborhood, Lincoln Heights, where survival is earned and innocence doesn’t last, Not Jaded throws you into a world where every choice can be your last.\n\nRaised in the shadows of addiction, with a mother lost to the streets, she becomes everything her family needs – protector, provider, and the only line between her siblings and total destruction. In a place where loyalty is tested and pain is constant, Jade learns fast: weakness gets you killed and someone wants her dead.\n\nA dangerous ex, fueled by obsession, is determined to destroy her and turn her everyday life into a fight for survival. Just as the pressure begins to break her, love enters her life, offering a glimpse of something better. But in Jade’s world, nothing is ever as perfect as it seems, and the deeper she falls, the more dangerous the truth becomes.\n\nAt the same time, her grandfather sits behind bars in DC jail, entangled in a conspiracy involving drugs, power, and military betrayal. Refusing to abandon him, Jade digs for answers, only to uncover a truth that changes everything: her aunt is a trained assassin, once working alongside her grandfather in a hidden world of secrets, danger, and deadly alliances.\n\nFrom guns to grief, from bloodshed to new life, from betrayal to a love that could either save her or ruin her, Jade is pushed to the edge again and again.\n\nJade isn’t just fighting to survive the streets; she’s fighting to survive the truth.\n\nWith enemies closing in, secrets unraveling, and her family depending on her, Jade is pushed beyond her limits into a life she never saw coming.\n\nThe odds are stacked against her, but giving up was never an option. Because in a world built to break her, she has only one choice: become stronger – or lose everything.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0GZJ5TCMJ\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.B0GZJ5TCMJ.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Cole, Janelle\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book has little sign of wear or use  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Blue Vase Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43627185504317,"sku":"BVV.B0GZJ5TCMJ.VG","price":14.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/B0GZJ5TCMJ-0.jpg?v=1789507192","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/not-jaded","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
