Finding Platinum: A Magic City Memoir, is the highly anticipated novel from Sonya Taylor, who spent several years as an adult entertainer at one of the most legendary gentlemen's clubs in the world - the infamous Magic City in Atlanta, GA. Amongst the glitter and glamour of the high-priced lifestyle of exotic dancing, sex, and drugs is the poignant tale of a streetwise, coquettish young woman born and raised on the tough streets of Detroit, who migrated to the heart of the south in the late 80s and early 90s, and grew up under the dazzle of the strobe lights and the salacious eyes of men with power, money, and prestige. This book, the first in a trilogy, is a powerful love story. It revolves around the love of money, fame, and fast living. It shows how they all collided at a deadly intersection in the life of this bright, young woman. At times, her life seemed so glamorous and exciting on the outside, but it was marred by heartbreak, tragedy, and senseless murders. This book explains how life's lessons that sometimes cost so much, often show that their value is worth every dime.

Born on June 2, 1968 in Mount Clemens, Michigan, raised into poverty and welfare in the city of Detroit, Sonya Taylor knew what it was like to be underprivileged, and she knew the endurance of the struggle. Taylor decided at a young age to overcome her situations, and not forget the circumstances that brought her and her family to a place of serenity, or at least a few minutes of temporary relief. As a child, Taylor had little interest in literature, but she discovered the joy of reading and writing at the age of 12. Her preference of poetry and creative-thought writing, is what Taylor has been focusing on these past years leading up to her first book, "Finding Platinum, A Magic City Memoir."
