Introducing A New Urban Novel...DAYDREAMS, by Tonisha Jones

DESCRIPTION
Born in the projects to an addict mother and a drug-dealing father, Daydre Collins didn't have much of a start in life, but she is able to go off to Berkley College of Music in Boston, where she begins to pour her heart and soul into songwriting. With the help of her friend Monica, Daydre graduates and sets off for a career in New York City, working for K Records. It is here that her dreams really start to come true as she falls in love, writes hit songs, and rises up from her ghetto beginnings to become a successful woman. Even at the top, however, things can change at any second, and Daydre has to stay strong and rely on those around her to survive the challenges life gives her.
This urban Cinderella story shows how a driven young woman uses both the good and bad elements of her past to become a Grammy-winning songwriter. Readers may find themselves gripped by Daydre's story as it reminds them that Daydreams can become reality.
DAYDREAMS CAN BE PURCHASED AT AMAZON.COM: http://www.amazon.com/Daydreams-Tonisha-Jones/dp/1434900088
