“Move over Wisteria Lane! Drama and scandal have permanently moved
to Bentley Manor. Sassy, smart, and unadulterated!” —Danielle
Santiago, author of Little Ghetto Girl and Grindin’
“A wonderfully written story with coloful characters that will keep
you flipping the pages—I loved it.” —K’wan,
Essence bestselling author of Hood Rat, Gangsta, and Street
Dreams
From Publishers Weekly "The title only hints at the freaky-deaky content in the first installment
of a street lit series that could also qualify as urban erotic horror. In Atlanta,
Bentley Manor is a cage for four young women. Aisha, whose pampered lifestyle
takes a big hit after her dealer husband gets locked up, goes to dangerous lengths
to keep up her ghetto fab image. Devani is single and, at her mother's direction,
plans on tricking NFL star Tyrik Jefferson into marrying her by getting pregnant.
Lexi has five kids by four men and hopes Luther, the man who finally married her,
will buy them a house, but will his sub-par sack performance tank her dreams?
Molly is the white trash wife of oversexed, abusive and often absentee Junior;
she, like the other women, dreams of getting up out Bentley Manor. The authors,
who also publish under Niobia Bryant and Adrianne Byrd, hold back little in this
cautionary tale dripping with sex, vice and yearning."(Feb)
