Hustle & Honey II

THE SEQUEL TO THE BESTSELLING HUSTLE & HONEY.They survived the streets. Now somebody wants the ground beneath them.Nyah 'Ny' Carter and Quinton 'Q' Banks found love on a North Omaha block where sweetness and danger share the same corner. They fought for it, bled for it, and made it out the other side - married, building a life, a baby on the way. Safe, for once.They should have known better. The block always teaches you the same lesson twice.This time the threat doesn’t come with guns. It comes with a smile, a slideshow, and a flyer that calls your grandmother’s house undervalued. A faceless company is buying up the neighborhood one block at a time, dressing up erasure as a brighter future - and the closer they get, the more it becomes clear they aren’t really after the land at all.They’re after Q.Because Q’s past didn’t die when he ran from it. It followed him home. And everything he buried to build this life is clawing its way back up through the soil - threatening the shop, the block, the woman he loves, and the child who hasn’t even taken a first breath yet.To protect his family, Q will have to become the man he swore he’d never be again. And Nyah will learn a harder truth than any the streets ever taught her: the most dangerous secrets aren’t the ones the streets keep - they’re the ones kept by the person lying next to you.Gentrification is just a slow bullet. And on this block, nothing worth keeping ever grows without blood in the soil.A gripping, emotional urban saga about love, legacy, family, and the fight to hold onto the only ground that ever loved you back - perfect for readers of gritty street-lit romance who want their happily-ever-afters earned in full.Nobody plants here but us.From Ellington 'RIXX' Bass Sr., author of the By Any Means trilogy, Burnt Toast, and The Capricorn Code.
