Unable to afford to stay on campus during the semester break,
18-year-old Gia Bryant is forced to return home to her junkie
mother and Harlem project building. Less than twenty-four hours
after returning, Gia's mother steals the small amount of money she
has - leaving her homeless, broke, and desperate to get back to
school. Gia's luck begins to change when a club promoter offers her
a job in New York City's hottest nightclubs. With the bark and bite
of a Pit-bull, the brains of an ivy-league scholar, and the beauty
of a hip-hop video vixen, Gia begins to use her full arsenal of
assets to get what she wants, unleashing a power she was previously
cynical of. In trading her sneakers for stilettos, and days at the
library for nights at the clubs, she begins to lose herself in a
world of fast cash, rich men, and designer labels. As she becomes
wrapped up in unexpected drama, Gia's focus blurs and the walls
she's built to conceal her painful upbringing from her promising
future begin to collapse. Will Gia's new life as the city's it girl
prevent her from returning to school and accomplishing her goals?
