Real Wifeys: Get Money

by Mink, Meesha

  Acknowledgments

  I have dreamed of being an author since I was a little girl, and to see that dream accomplished took the support, respect, and guidance of many special people in my life. Every day and with every book, I grow as a writer, and I will continue to grow and improve until I type “The End” on my very last book.

  To my editor, Allegra Ben-Amotz: Words cannot express how thankful and impressed I am at your hard work, insight, and speed on this project. Thank you times a million to you and the entire Touchstone team.

  To my agent, Claudia Menza: Thanks for helping me keep every layer of my hectic writing career in order, and thank you for taking time to answer all of my questions about the business. I adore you.

  To my family, friends, associates (and even my enemies)—thank you. I see every experience in life as a learning lesson and you all have taught me something. Ha!

  Of course huge thanks to the readers, book clubs, bookstores/vendors, bloggers, and reviewers that support all works of fiction.

  Lastly, here’s to those before me who had dreams that they worked hard to make a reality and inspired me to do the same.

  Dear Readers,

  Two stories down and one to go in the Real Wifeys trilogy about three wifeys who each face their own issues and struggles in three separate hoods in my hometown of Newark, New Jersey.

  In Real Wifeys: On the Grind, Goldie, a stripper living in low-rise projects, the long-term girlfriend of an older man, had to learn that her self-respect was more important than money and power.

  In Real Wifeys: Get Money, Luscious, an ex-stripper/college dropout living in a luxury apartment in downtown Newark, is the wifey of a platinum selling rap artist. Tormented by her blazing desire for payback, she almost destroys herself in her bitter quest for revenge against Goldie.

  Last up in the trilogy is the story of Sophie Alvarez, aka Suga. There’s more info to come on this wifey of a man deep into a criminal lifestyle.

  Just wait until you read the story of Luscious’ ex-childhood friend who adds a twist to the trilogy that brings it full circle and ends it all with a bang.

  I can’t wait.

  MM
