The stakes, the deceptions, and the body count are rising in national bestselling author and urban lit superstar Kiki Swinson’s explosive new series set in South Beach and featuring the gritty, fierce, unforgettable Kira from Swinson’s bestselling Wifey novels . . . With Kira’s drug kingpin fiancé and sexy protector, Dylan, behind bars thanks to her influential father, Kira’s feeling the heat of one too many bodies being dropped on the way to raking in her fortune. But she’s not done paying the price yet . . . One of the casualties of Kira’s high-end scheming was a judge friend of her father’s. Now a homicide detective is after her—and Dylan’s most brutal rival is determined to see Kira nailed for murder. Dylan’s right-hand man may be in on the game too. Worst of all, Kira’s father plans to testify against Dylan. Feeling cornered on all sides, Kira agrees to a nuclear option: take her father out. But the cold-blooded move she thinks will end her problems may just multiply them. And her new beginning may bring her to the vicious end of a very deadly line.

With harm lurking around every corner, Kira starts equipping herself with an arsenal of manpower.

With more than four million copies sold, Wifey is Judy Blume's hilarious, moving tale of a woman who trades in her conventional wifely duties for her wildest fantasies—and learns a lot about life along the way. Sandy Pressman is a nice suburban wife whose boredom is getting the best of her. She could be making friends at the club, like her husband keeps encouraging her to do. Or working on her golf game. Or getting her hair done. But for some reason, these things don't interest her as much as the naked man on the motorcycle...

Essence® bestselling author KiKi Swinson offers up a scandalous street lit tale--and shows that no one else stands a chance when wifey runs the hustle. From the looks of things, Kira's got it all. She owns a profitable hair salon and is livin' the life in her six-hundred-thousand-dollar house with her huge diamond ring, designer clothes, and powerful husband. Kira's man Ricky buys her whatever she wants, but he's still a hustler through and through. A feared and respected drug lord, Ricky's got no shortage of baby mama drama and women on the side. He may think he's playing Kira, but Kira knows that only wifey has the pass codes to the bank account and the combination to the safe. While Kira runs the game well--that's how she became wifey in the first place--she doesn't always like it. And she's about done with Ricky's playah ways. So when one of his runners is busted and the Feds start sniffing around, Kira sees her way out. But nothing on the streets is easy, and Kira just might be in too deep. Life, money, love, and everything she's ever worked for is on the line. Will Kira say goodbye to being wifey. . .or learn to play the game even better than before?

After the deaths and arrests of his entire crew and an informant-fueled investigation into his past, the man known on the streets as Animal relocates to Texas and finds fame and stardom as the newest act signed to the notorious Big Dawg Entertainment. His girlfriend, Gucci, is thrilled when she gets the news that he's coming back to New York on a promotional tour, but when she discovers the hidden agenda behind his homecoming nothing can prepare her for the life-altering consequences that will come of it. There goes the neighborhood . . . again.
