Death Before Dishonor by Nikki Turner
The first time Sunni fell in love, it landed her in jail - facing forty years along with her so-called thug love, swearing on a stack of bibles that the drugs weren’t hers. When she got out of prison, she beat the odds by opening a one of a kind, 24-hour beauty salon where both money and gossip flowed freely. And although she now could afford a lavish lifestyle, all those riches didn’t keep her bed or body warm at night. Stanley “Trill” Johnson served five years in a high security prison for selling drugs, taking the rap for some other dude. Trill opted to keep his mouth shut and do his time—while envisioning the payback he’d deliver later on. While in prison, Trill’s ultra-sexy girlfriend and aspiring model Precious Pay took care of his son, knowing that when he got out of jail, he would owe her the high fashion lifestyle she always craved. Throughout this compelling story, they all discover the same hard truths about life on the streets: loyalty is a precious but scarce thing.
