About the book

When Zya's boyfriend, Jules, is sentenced to a five-year-bid, he temporarily hands his operation over to her. With little street knowledge, Zya turns his small operation into an untouchable empire. She becomes connected to a Cuban drug lord, and the sky is the limit. Zya begins an underground network called Supreme Clientele with an elite roundtable. Released from prison, Jules wants back what is rightfully his -- but Zya isn't ready to hang it up and play wifey.
