Book excerpt: A New York Times Bestseller Award-winning Vanity Fair writer Nancy Jo Sales crisscrossed the country talking to more than two hundred girls between the ages of thirteen and nineteen about their experiences online and off. They are coming of age online in a hypersexualized culture that has normalized extreme behavior, from pornography to the casual exchange of nude photographs; a culture rife with a virulent new strain of sexism; a culture in which teenagers are spending so much time on technology and social media that they are not developing basic communication skills. The dominant force in the lives of girls coming of age in America today is social media: Instagram, Whisper, Vine, Youtube, Kik, Ask.fm, Tinder. Provocative, explosive, and urgent, American Girls will ignite much-needed conversation about how we can help our daughters and sons negotiate the new social and sexual norms that govern their lives.

She didn’t have a chance to talk to JD before she left, but their lust-filled night still lingered in her mind. She wasn’t quite ready to deal with her feelings toward him, and being with Cypher was the perfect distraction she needed. Willow wasn’t sure about the intentions that Cypher kept politicking about, and his actions while on tour caused her to question not only his intentions toward her, but whether or not he was really a gangsta. Cypher was excited to have his new bae on tour with him, but not everyone shared his sentiment. Indigo was jealous as hell and made it her personal mission to disrupt Cypher and Willow’s plans to have a good time. She planned on using the information that Shaggy armed her with to expose Cypher as a fake studio gangster to Willow. However, an incident that occurred at the end of the tour made Willow take a second look at Cypher and question her feelings for him. O’Bannon was in rage that Willow helped JD jump him. JD had been a thorn in his side ever since he started taking care of Willow. O’Bannon always thought it was puppy love between them, but the older they got, he started to notice he was mistaken. He planned on convincing Willow that it would be a mistake if she continued to play this silly little game, and the only obstacle that was standing in his way, as he saw it, was JD. Having Willow out of town for a few weeks gave him time to plot and plan how he was going to get her back. Taking out JD was top priority, but to JD, taking O’Bannon out was necessary! It was obvious that Willow was the one person on everyone’s priority list, but there was only one gangsta that she wanted.

While she hated to believe that her boyfriend was anything like her father, she continued a downhill relationship with the very fine, sexy, but also very married, Moses Malone. Moses. Unlike her father, Moses never rendered promises to leave his wife, but Egypt plans to do anything necessary to leave her side chick status behind and become the main chick on the arm of her man. Little does she know, Moses’ wife, Marlee, is a force to be reckoned with and will not give up her man so easily. Doing anything she has to do to ensure she never loses her husband, Marlee is willing to use secrets from Moses’ past and present to make sure no one, including the side chick, steals what is rightfully hers. Just like side piece status had a meaning to Egypt, wifey status took reign in Marlee’s eyes. Paris James, the middle sister, hot-headed, determined, and a fashion boutique owner was hell on wheels. What happened between her mother and father left her drained, disgusted, and bitter. She was hell bent on never being anyone’s side chick, and in order to make sure of it, she swore off men period. Promising herself she’d never deal with a man and risk dealing with heartbreak like her father had inflicted on their mother, she lived her life dating and sexing women only. Would this secure her heart, or will she discover that even females knew how to play the same games as niggas did? London James, the baby girl of the bunch, was always sheltered and protected by her older siblings, but unbeknownst to them, just like the fall out of their parents wreaked havoc on them, it did the same to her. Keeping her personal life low key from her siblings and grandparents, London found herself swooped in by an older man who plays on her naivety and her innocence. While everyone deals with their own issues, the baby of the family deals with inner demons and outward sins in private, driving her to make some choices that no young girl should have to face alone. While each of these young women struggle to find out who they are as women, everything goes back to the choices made in their childhood. Were they old enough to know better and do better now? Yes, they were, but what they saw and experienced in their daily lives had molded them into what they became. And what each of them saw in their early years was their mother put on the back burner for their father’s wife and other kids. In this nail-biting, gripping, on the edge urban tale of three sisters, who based what they knew about love from their side chick mother and unfaithful father, they learn quickly that their past can make or break them. Secrets, lies, and betrayal will either rip them apart or make them stick together like glue. Let’s take a ride and see how side chick secrets can change lives... especially when you want someone else’s man!
