Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:In the second novel from the authors of Desperate Hoodwives, four women will try to escape Bentley Manor — a place no one has ever left unscathed... • Keisha married the high school basketball star, but now Smokey's addicted to crack. Unable to feed her children, Keisha feels that she's not only hit bottom but has taken her children with her. When Smokey's brother offers to help, will it come at the ultimate price? • Takiah abruptly fled her pimp husband with her baby. Desperate to start over, she finds a hiding place. Living with Grandma Cleo means returning to church — but Takiah's salvation is the last thing on the pastor's mind... • Princess is lucky to have found a ride-or-die friend in Lucky, who helps protect her from her mom's abusive ways. With a voice to rival Mary J. and Whitney, at just seventeen Princess holds a ticket out. But when Lucky is gone, will she have the courage to follow her dreams? • Woo Woo has escaped the projects with her suburban husband — the type of man every woman wants. But she can't resist sneaking back to Bentley Manor for steamy sexcapades with her drug dealer boyfriend. It's not only WooWoo who has a secret... Review:"The women of Desperate Housewives and The Real Housewives of New York City have nothing on the shameless ladies of Atlanta's Bentley Manor. This follow-up to Desperate Hoodwives finds Miz Cleo and Miz Osceola still reigning over an enclave haunted by poverty and crime, and there's plenty to talk about. Miz Cleo's crack-addicted granddaughter, Takiah Ray, and her baby, Tanana, return to Bentley to get away from Takiah's husband, who has begun pimping her out. Jamillah 'Princess' Unger, long abused by her mother and a string of deadbeat men, may be able to use her musical talent to finally break free. Keisha Williamson, an aspiring beautician, cares for four children while her husband, Smokey, struggles with drug addiction, and Keisha seeks dangerous solace in his brother's arms. Woo Woo Moore moves to the burbs after marrying a dentist, but an affair with a drug dealer from the hood may destroy her new life. Mink and Diamond tell it like it is with breathless passion."

Drama and scandal have moved to Bentley Manor."-- Danielle Santiago, author of Little Ghetto Girl and Grindin' Review:"A can't-miss new series."-- Essence Review:"A sexy tale that will keep you gasping as you turn the pages..."-- Miasha, author of Sistah for Sale, Mommy's Angel, Diary of a Mistress, and Secret Society Synopsis:From the authors of "Desperate Hoodwives" comes the second novel in an unforgettable series that chronicles four women with sins too shameless to bear.
