God’s Hands

A No Tears For Black Girls Story

One night. One choice. One chance at redemption.

Fifteen-year-old Jasmine has survived Oakland's streets through desperation and instinct. But when a robbery at a corner store goes catastrophically wrong, leaving her friend Darius bleeding on the linoleum and a shotgun pointed at her chest, everything changes.

The store owner has every reason to pull the trigger. Jasmine has every reason to run.

Instead, in a moment that defies the logic of the streets, mercy breaks through violence. One word—"Go"—becomes the catalyst for a transformation that will echo far beyond this single night.

From the acclaimed No Tears For Black Girls universe comes a standalone story of raw power and unexpected grace.

God's Hands is a visceral exploration of how one act of mercy can shatter the cycle of violence, offering hope in the darkest corners of urban America. J.C. Reedburg delivers authentic street fiction with literary depth, proving that redemption can emerge from the most unlikely places.

Perfect for readers of Sister Souljah, Wahida Clark, and K'wan.
