Diamond's Pearl is a blunt but urban epic, starring Diamond. Diamond is a young girl whose life was turned inside out because of her mother's austere rules, and the fact that the felt like the black sheep of the family.

Diamond always thought she had to have a man in her bed, it didn't matter whose man as long as he kept her sexually satisified. Diamond had a baby at a young age and hr mother didn't allow her to do anything but take care of her daughter Nikki. Once Diamond moved out she went buck-wild and was sleeping with everything that looked like a stick and was given more than she bargined for. She was given several chances, she even moved to Ohio for a better life, but will she learn? 

Excerpt

CHAPTER -1

Regina and Diamond are three years apart, but Regina wouldn’t dare allow Diamond to hang out with her, and when she had a problem, Regina had no time to listen or give her advise like a big sister should. Regina worked two jobs, but when she wasn’t at work she was either with her friends or on a date with some guy. Diamond usually sat outside her sister’s bedroom door acting as if she was reading a book while she watched her get ready for a date. She usually put on a tight pair of jeans that showed her curvy shape or a short skirt that showed her big legs. Regina had what you call a “sha-dunk-a-dunk,” a straight up ghetto booty. Diamond always wished she was just like her sister and able to do the things that she did. She had all of the latest clothes, kept her hair and nails done and a ton of associates, unlike Diamond who only had a couple of females that she associated with. Diamond couldn’t wait for Regina to leave so that she could go into her room and put on her make up and her fancy clothes.
“Oh, I look nice, but not as nice as Regina,” Diamond thought. All Diamond wanted from Regina was a little of her time, but all they did was argue and fist fight.

Diamond ended up getting pregnant when she was fourteen, she hid it from her mother as long as she could, but her mother began to notice her not having a period after the third month of ‘faking it’. Diamond had started to forget to wrap unused pads in toilet tissue and throw them in the trash, and with the temperature in Cottonwood, Arizona reaching one hundred and ten degrees most days, she couldn’t wear big clothes to hide her once flat stomach.
“Come on Diamond, we’re going on a road trip,” her mother said. Diamond’s mother, Rosetta, didn’t play and she knew it, so she didn’t ask any questions because she knew that it would only cause more drama. Rosetta took
