The Gonnabe's is a story about 3 teen girls who grew up in Richmond, CA and is experiencing their first year of high school at a private school. Richmond is not the safest neighborhood in the Bay Area but it's home to Deja, Trenise, and Shauna. They're used to being around people who look and behave like them so when their parents tell them that they're going to the new private school they don't understand why. Private school is for bougie, rich people, right? Not for girls who grew up in the hood, in single parent households, right? So how will they ever fit in? Well, Deja, Trenise, and Shauna are about to find out exactly how girls from the hood can (or can't) fit in at Paradise Academy. Between navigating the halls of Paradise Academy High, dealing with family drama, and trying to be the new baddies on campus, Deja, Trenise, and Shauna have a lot to learn about being a teenager and staying true to who they think they are.
