"Soldier man a wicked!"
That's what Shantoya Sinclair keeps telling herself. Over and over. But words start to lose their power when the heart wants what it shouldn't.

Shantoya Sinclair looks like she has it all together, a third-year university student in Tourism and Hospitality Management with big dreams of building a brighter future. But behind her polished smile is a girl weighed down by family burdens, scars of broken relationships, and a quiet fear that she'll never be enough.
When her mother's battle with cancer forces Shantoya to abandon her studies, her carefully built world begins to unravel. Her older sister calls her worthless, her younger brother struggles with depression, and Shantoya finds herself drowning in guilt, regret, and financial strain.
Desperate to help her family, she gives in to the pressure of her friends and takes a path she swore she never would, dancing at Friday night clubs for money.
What feels like survival quickly turns into danger when she catches the attention of a man she should never want: Kymani Knight, a soldier, commanding and dangerously handsome... and worse, her best friend's cousin.
Now, Shantoya stands at a crossroads. Every move she makes risks shattering the fragile relationships she has left. Can she save her family without losing herself? Or will her secrets drag her deeper into a world she was never meant to enter?
A story of ambition, betrayal, love, and sacrifice, Pretty Little Shantoya explores the price of survival and the thin line between choosing yourself and losing everything.
