Just Kickin' It

Beschreibung

Can you be a sneakerhead without sneakers? Jesse has been living with his grandfather ever since his parents were killed in an accident. When the insurance money runs out and his grandfather's Wi-Fi is cut off, Jesse hands over his savings to pay the bill. So much for the new kicks he was dreaming of. Then smooth-talking Derick rolls into town with a shiny Mustang and fresh threads. He shows Jesse that there's more than one way to get what you want...if you're willing to pay the price.
