THE LONELY POLE - A TWO PART MEGA NOVEL BY TAKERRA ALLEN!

We’ve all got dreams… How far are you willing to go for yours?

Baby, Nyema, Portia, and Rocsi couldn’t have any less in common than what meets the eye.

But under dire circumstances and through different walks of life, they all end up in the same place.

Dreamz, a seedy strip joint in the backstreets of Dirty Jerz, conceals some of the darkest secrets and holds captive the souls of many pretty girls lost.

In a day and age where the strip life is glamourized and celebrated, take a walk with four women who will tell the tale a bit differently.

Lost loves, broken hearts, dreams deferred, all in the name of the almighty dollar and it’s only a pop, twerk, and grind away.

But how far is too far, and when do you know you’ve gotten there? And even more important, how can you find your way back?

At the sad realization that the pole has no mercy, these women must come to grips with their reality.

The pole is cold, the pole is greedy, the pole is wicked, the pole is deceiving, the pole… is lonely.","format",{"_19":102,"_84":103,"_104":105,"_106":46},"publisher","Angelic Script Publishing","page_count",287,"duration","published_date","pub_date","March 27","isbn","asin","B00JBL4NOS","hex_code","#080808","language","English","purchase_links",[],"playlist_links",[],"cover","https://cdn.blackauthored.com/books/149i/69fda30b-6279-4662-b14b-0787eb7de6e0.jpg","thumb","https://img.blackauthored.com/?preset=poster_thumb&image=https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.blackauthored.com%2Fbooks%2F149i%2F69fda30b-6279-4662-b14b-0787eb7de6e0.jpg","rating_distribution",{"_95":96,"_97":98},"tags",[83],{"_19":30,"_84":85,"_86":87,"_52":-5,"_50":88,"_89":90,"_91":46,"_92":46,"_93":94},"name","Romance","category","genre","romance","url","/genres/romance","selectable","sensitive","position",0,"ratings",{},"recommend",{"_99":30,"_100":94,"_101":94},"yes","no","maybe",3,"Kindle","type","digital","audio",{"_19":108,"_84":109,"_50":110,"_111":112,"_113":114,"_115":116,"_117":118,"_119":120},"e2b88e31-18b1-442f-876f-a3072495e629","Takerra Allen","20-takerra-allen","biography","
