This crazy Mama and her highly troublesome daughters are back and they’re making much noise. Karrine can’t keep her hands off Taffy’s main man, Honey, but falling for him will sting like an attack from a swarm of bees. Their relationship has plenty of ups and downs, but through it all, Mama will be the one who eventually saves them or tears them apart. Many of Mama’s lifelong secrets will be revealed, too, and when more people discover that she is the mastermind behind the empire Honey has successfully operated for years, plenty of heads will roll and more dead bodies will hit the streets. Mama becomes a real force to be reckoned with, but even she can be brought down. Someone close to her is plotting to do it, and unfortunately, seeking revenge may leave one of these bad divas clinging to life or living a life sentence in prison, where many believe they belong.

A snitch in the crew has dismantled the Cartel, and now disloyalty threatens to tear the family apart. Young Carter is in the fight for his life, as he faces drug kingpin charges because of the treachery of his best friend, Ace.--From publisher description.

The late, great Notorious BIG said it best, "Mo' Money, Mo' Problems". Now that Triple M has the money and the power, a gang of problems have come along with it. Garnering the attention of a money hungry, power seeking and calculating up and comer, along with his crew of equally hungry goons, they aim for the jugular. Underestimating MMM, they unleash a sh*t storm of repercussions when the boundaries that lie between business and personal are ignored; putting one of MMM's own life in imminent danger. Having to face their biggest threat thus far, will they rise to the occasion or will the Queens of the Streets be dethroned?

With money and power comes great responsibility. This lesson is especially vital for Tony “Bow” Wilds. The only reason he hopped into the fast life in the first place was to feed his kid sister Casey, but with no more worries, he’s forced to stay after partnering with Maurice. It seems as though everyone around Bow can see that Maurice is not as trust worthy as he seems, and somehow Bow is blind to it until Nicki comes home. After her sacrifice of doing a bid for Bow, she’ll stop at nothing to make sure that Bow is untouchable and is able to stack his ends without any predators lurking around the corner. Including Maurice. That is until Ebonee slithers back into the picture and drops a two-year-old at their doorstep. Being the grown woman she is, Nicki takes the punches at they come yet she becomes weary of the fight and ponders leaving the drama all behind. Being with Bow isn’t as easy as it seemed it would be, because he changed during her time away and his money comes before all else. Even her. The time comes for the pair to make the ultimate decision. They must choose whether to stick with love, or to part for the sake of the money and the cocaine that only Bow can produce in the North. For him, would it be easy just to cut off the love of his life and continue what he was doing after she took the blame and accepted four years in prison? Will Nicki finally cave under pressure and walk away from Bow after all her hard work? Or will cold steel at her temple be the indefinite reason she submits?

Productivity is hard. Accomplishing big goals is even harder, and trying to grow a business or pursue a great big goal while raising kids feels almost impossible! This book is for those of us who are mixing motherhood with other passions. We are raising babies while working tirelessly at an enormous goal. We are playing with preschoolers while pursuing our passions. It is difficult enough to manage a home and love on our children without adding impossible dreams to the mix. But we know you can do it, and this book can help! As a mamapreneur, being productive in the home is just as important as being productive with your business. The two go hand in hand because we juggle the kids, the home, and the business all day long. Using our time wisely in one area inevitably helps the other areas as well. We don't have the luxury of a 9-5 schedule where we can work exclusively on our business or big dream. Many of us are choosing to stay home with our kids and build our dream business in the snatches of time we find between carpools, bottles, and play dough. Others of us still work a traditional 9-5 job, so our margins in the hours-off must be balanced wisely to have time for our families as well as time to pursue other passions. The exhaustion of a 9-5 job fuels the fire for building a business where we can be our own boss. As moms, it's not possible to simply cross the home-front off the list and move on. Meals, laundry, and cleaning can't be put off indefinitely. Our families are more pleasant when they are fed, clean, and not living in filth. We get it. We live there. We've drawn from our own experiences, trials, and errors when writing this book. We type not from corner offices and conference rooms but from crusty couches and crumb-filled kitchens. We've gathered the best tips from other moms in the trenches too. So you'll hear not only what works for us, but what works for them too. This book is full of strategies used by real moms that help them to be as productive as possible in their day-to-day lives. When used together, these strategies will give you the margins you need to pursue your biggest passions instead of letting another year pass by wondering, "what if..."
