KADEN is a retired drug dealer and former kingpin of the streets of Miami, Florida. He had created a legacy based on power, respect, wealth, and branding his name. Today, he’s the owner of a strip club, having left the world of drugs behind. Before stepping down from his throne, Kaden taught his younger cousin, Jordan, the game before ultimately allowing him to take over his kingdom. The two men, however, were polar opposites. Jordan was younger and more reckless, a treacherous guy with a ruthless streak. Kaden was much calmer, wiser and level-headed in the way he went around his business. Jordan‘s greatest flaw was failing to change his mentality and adapt to the role of being a boss. Instead, he remained rooted in the same hood mentality of a small-time player. Rather than being respected on the streets, he made enemies of some serious players. Kaden’s future, and that of his marriage, had become threatened both by Jordan’s out-of-control behavior and his own infidelities. Could he really start over and build a new life, leaving his past behind, or is the life he had lived destined to catch up with him and destroy everything? So much hangs in the balance as a brutal turf war heats up on the mean streets, where the one certainty is that only the strong and street-smart will survive.

Amoral, cunning, ruthless, and instructive, this multi-million-copy New York Times bestseller is the definitive manual for anyone interested in gaining, observing, or defending against ultimate control – from the author of The Laws of Human Nature. In the book that People magazine proclaimed “beguiling” and “fascinating,” Robert Greene and Joost Elffers have distilled three thousand years of the history of power into 48 essential laws by drawing from the philosophies of Machiavelli, Sun Tzu, and Carl Von Clausewitz and also from the lives of figures ranging from Henry Kissinger to P.T. Barnum. Some laws teach the need for prudence (“Law 1: Never Outshine the Master”), others teach the value of confidence (“Law 28: Enter Action with Boldness”), and many recommend absolute self-preservation (“Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally”). Every law, though, has one thing in common: an interest in total domination. In a bold and arresting two-color package, The 48 Laws of Power is ideal whether your aim is conquest, self-defense, or simply to understand the rules of the game.

Part 1 For some, trust, love, and loyalty is a matter of perspective. To others, it's a way of life... After a lifelong friendship, Lailani and Simba are finally getting married. They've faced many obstacles together, but right when Lailani thinks everything is calm, they're faced with more problems. A blast from the past threatens to ruin the life they built together and thought they'd always have. Lailani and Simba promised to hold on and never let each other go, but will their loyalty be tested yet again? Exactly how far will they go to protect their peace and their union? Melanie and Quincy have gone through the storm and rain together, including facing the death of their first child. They were once a couple who had everything and thought they'd be together forever, but trust issues got in the way. Circumstances in life brought them together again, but not as a couple. They seem to have a love-hate thing going on, but is it to only cover the true feelings they still have for each other? Unfortunately, more trust issues arise and it can affect everything, including their ability to participate in Simba and Lailani's wedding together. Lauren has done well getting her life back on track after overcoming a drug addiction and doing a bid in prison. However, one of her weaknesses has always been making hasty decisions involving relationships. She finds herself struggling with her feelings for Darian and not allowing them to put her back at square one. She's a woman in love, but she also has too much to lose if things go wrong. She's faced with a decision between letting love win or giving in to other people's demands on how she should live her life. Charisma is a single mother who wants three important things: trust, love, and loyalty. While that's not too much for her to ask, she seems to break the code of all three. She's fortunate to have Vamp step up and help her raise a child that's not his, but she still has feelings for him. In an effort to break up his relationship with Keyani, she hooks up with his enemy, thinking that'll make him come back to her. She has a lot more growing up to do and her friends Lailani, Melanie, and Lauren aren't afraid to let her know that. Will she take heed before she finds herself involved in a dangerous situation? These four friends have formed an amazing sisterhood, but their drama is thick and their issues with trust, love, and loyalty can impact something they all care about; Simba and Lailani's wedding. Part 2 Loyalty is everything. Betrayal is the ultimate sin... Simba has to put his life and freedom on the line as he goes on one final mission to find out who crashed his wedding and wants to take him out. He's determined to get to the bottom of things once and for all so he can live at peace with his new wife, Lailani, and their children. Secrets begin to unravel that will not only have him on edge but question the loyalty of everyone around him. Who can he trust? Quincy is just as determined as Simba to find out who was responsible for wreaking havoc in their lives. Like Simba, he's also begun to look at everyone sideways and doesn't have confidence in anyone's loyalty. Melanie and his cousin, Brandon, warn him about getting involved. Against his better judgment, he does anyway. Before he knows it, things backfire and he's in a fight for his life. Will he be able to protect himself and his family from an unknown enemy? Vamp and Darian get on board with helping Simba and Quincy, but at the expense of betraying the trust of their loved ones. Keyani becomes suspicious of Vamp as he comes up with lie after lie to cover his involvement. Will she stick around or will she leave? Darian also faces issues with Lauren, but he has even bigger problems of his own. These four friends get caught up in proving their loyalty, but will it be the death of them?
