| Publisher Description: "Nikki Turner has truly brought the female hustlers to light. Fellas betta watch out, because the Girls in the Game are taking over " -LaJill Hunt, author of Drama Queen and No More Drama A collection of explosive stories handpicked by the undisputed "queen of hip-hop fiction," Girls in the Game presents an all-women crew of urban-lit divas. The game here is survival, and every ghetto-hardened gangsta in these tales does what she's gotta do to make it on-or off-the mean streets. Call them what you will, but until you've faced their reality you'll never know what you would do if you were in their pumps. Just remember: It's a dirty game, and women are usually the best players. "The game ain't to be told but sold. If that's so, the women in Girls in the Game should be millionaires " -KaShamba Williams, author of Mind Games "She's baaaaaaaack Nikki Turner has returned, bringing with her the new divas of urban fiction. These ladies raise the bar as they chronicle the streets like never before. Get ready for a literary treat." -Tracy Brown, author of White Lines |
