The Most Talked About Youth Discussions
Teens Are Not Exempt from HIV
BOSTON, MA – June 15, 2015 – Author Tia
Hines is spreading a message through her YA
Urban Fiction novel series, “ That Girl is
Poison” to shed light on the most talked
about youth discussions involving the
following topics: Sex, Promiscuity, HIV,
Abuse, Teen Rape, Child Sexual Assault,
Pregnancy, and Neglect.
This sexual assault survivor is a youth mentor
that has a very fascinating way of reaching
the young generation and inspiring adults to
set goals to create dreams and never stop
striving to achieve new heights.
The first book in the two part series was
published by Urban Books in 2012, this work
is about Desire Jones, a young, hot-to-trot
teen who lives life on the edge. Abandoned
by her mother, she yearns for love and
attention. Her uncle shelters her, but life is
impossible to bear with his abusive wife. To
make things worse, she gets involved with
Malik, who shatters her hope and trust by
leaving her pregnant and infected with HIV.
So hardened, she decides to do the
unspeakable, purposely infecting people with
her disease. Of course, no one knows of her
intent, not even her best friend, Jennifer,
who unwittingly helps Desire find her
victims. Will Desire realize the error of her
ways before it's too late? The forthcoming
second book, “That Girl is Poison Too” will
follow.
“The powerful lessons in my book reflects on
respect, love, and protection. Many can
relate to my own growing pains which is
displayed in my fictional character
experiences,” said Tia Hines.
