Shot Glass Diva by Jacki Simmons is a fast-paced, page-turner that will have you on the edge of your seat waiting for the ride to stop. Meet Honey Davis, a spoiled-brat so to speak, growing up in an exceptional wealthy family; Honey does not want for anything. She is a daddy’s girl and shows signs of resentment towards her overbearing mother. Honey refuses to listen to rules and regulations and instead wants to live life on her own terms. When faced with drugs, alcohol, and an unplanned pregnancy, Honey is forced to grow up fast.

Still not willing to give her mother the benefit of the doubt that “mothers’ know best,” Honey drops out of school to get her hustle on. Meeting Sammie Lee has not only been the come-up she was looking for, but she could be falling in love with him. The catch is Sammie is married, and his wife, Lola, is not going down without a fight. Trips, expensive jewels and the home of her dreams has Honey sitting back reflecting on her life and how she got to where she is today. Thinking about how she abandoned her daughter and missing her reveals to the readers that Honey is witnessing a breakthrough; and she goes on the hunt for her daughter.

Can Honey turn her life around? Is it too late to make amends with her parents for the rebellious teen she was? Can she let Sammie be with his family and leave all that crooked mess alone? I loved this story, it was a real coming-of -age tale where the heroine comes full circle and welcomes maturity beyond our belief. I recommend this book to readers of all genres; and especially young adults.
