Simone Smith is a 21 year old stripper. Never in her life did she think stripping would be her source of income. But since she was a kid in the system since the age of 16, she's been fighting her way through life with very few options. Until one day she reconnects with a her old friend and next door neighbor, who is currently a new singer- August Alsina.

To give you a brief summary on what's going on, 7 years ago I was a Senior at Palm Moore High school in L.A. California along with my BestFriend, Lucas Coly. We also have other friends that go by the names of Ziann, Trey, Trinity, Nesto, and Jayy. No this is not a "How I feel in love with my Bestfriend" story. Lucas and I arnt like that. Our friendship is more important to us than making a relationship out of it. Then what would be the point of being friends in the first place you know? Anyways, that's what friendships about. Trust, Commitments, Honesty, and Loyalty. What would you do for your best-friend? Would you Bail them out of trouble? Would you make as many as sacrifices you could possibly make? Would you hurt someone you love? Would you kill someone? This isn't my story... This isn't his story... This is OUR story... As BestFriends.

Nicki is a girl that went through SOO much in life and now the odds are in her favor when she meets some that's going to give her that love she always been missing and in return she becomes his rider (August Alsina story) ENJOY:) DO NOT COPY WRITE !! This is the original RIDER!!!!
