Betrayal, divided loyalties, and revenge

Ridah’s choices place her at the center of overlapping personal and legal crises: a pregnancy with uncertain paternity, a relationship with K.J. complicated by her involvement with his cousin, and a trial as her circumstances deteriorate. Lanka’s efforts to separate Ridah and K.J. turn their conflict into a more direct threat, while the death of Ridah’s close friend gives her a reason to seek revenge. The plot brings romantic entanglements, hidden secrets, and escalating danger together, with trust itself in question as Ridah faces the consequences of her decisions.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in urban fiction centered on romantic entanglements and betrayal.
  • Readers who enjoy stories combining relationship conflict, legal jeopardy, and revenge.

Book overview

Ridah is faced with the dire consequences of her choices, messing with the hood's finest. She is no stranger to betrayals and backstabbing, and the stakes keep rising... When Ridah discovers being pregnant, she prays that God will somehow favor her, and the child she is carrying will turn out to be K.J.'s. But Ridah knows it is almost impossible, especially after sleeping with his cousin, Smirky. After the lines are crossed between Ridah and K.J., Lanka is willing to do anything within her power to disconnect any bond Ridah and K.J. have built, and she makes attempts on Ridah's life in fear of her exposing her secrets to the only man she has ever loved, K.J. As Ridah awaits trial, her life continues to unravel after unexpected tragedies. Ridah starts to wonder if sleeping with K.J. was worth the drama that comes along with dealing with him. Her ongoing beef with Lanka is now personal after Lanka kills her close friend in cold blood. With the stakes high and Ridah losing people who were once dear to her, she vows to exact revenge for her fallen loved ones. Everyone is not who they claim to be. The truth is staring them boldly in the face, and if they're not paying attention, they may be next.
