From hip hop kingpin and #1 New York Times bestselling author 50 Cent comes a novel that dares to tell the truth about the Life—the lovers, the haters, the guns, the money, the highs, the lows—The Street, for real.

ONE REASON TO LIVE. THREE WAYS TO DIE.

Trill Johnson has five years of jail time under his belt, two women trying to get inside his pants, and one mission: Get the suckers who sold him out. And get ’em good.

Sunni James will do anything for Trill. Lie, cheat, steal. Even risk losing her successful beauty salon to save him from the mean streets of Richmond.

Precious Pay will do anything for Trill, too. She cribbed his kid while he did his time; now she wants Trill to pay for the leg she lost in a robbery gone wrong.

But when love is a lie, who do you trust? When the deals turn dirty, who do you betray? And when the guns start blazing, who’s going down?

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.
