A Thug'z Luv is a gripping story with a natural street language, centering around Jason Blue, who at the tender age of six, lost his father to drugs and crime in the streets of Fort Worth, Texas. Now living with his single white mother, Paris Blue, in an all Black Community on the South Side of Town; he has to learn to deal with life on a level far beyond an average kid his age.
