Book synopsis

It's hard to imagine how a person would deal with having no father, a struggling mother, an incarcerated brother, and a sister who is suffering in an abusive relationship. Add living on the relentless streets of Watts, California, unforgiving enough to be known as "Hell on Earth" to the mix, and you might be ready to give up on life and become another victim. Or would you channel your obstacles into something more positive and become a survivor? With a successful boxing career in his sights and his brother Israel and sister Taja to watch out for, Angel Williams must find a way to fill his lackluster existence with meaning and purpose. His life changes when he meets his sister's roommate, April-a woman who makes him look forward to every new day, content in his heart and mind. But as Angel strives to make a better life for himself and April, Taja and Israel lose control of theirs. Will April, Angel, and his siblings be able to bob and weave through all twelve rounds in the ring of life?
