Her only income is receiving babysitting checks from the state for watching her sister’s five children & selling trash weed with her boyfriend Brick in the local lounge. Tired of the bottom feeder’s lifestyle & the threat of government funds being cut, Zara makes a vow on Dec. 31st. The pledge is to stay in her bag no matter what in the upcoming year. Kwame Rasoul enters Zara’s life as a reformed criminal & high-level thief. Together they amassed a fortune by finessing people on social media using direct sales marketing tactics. As the couple ascends to “relationship goals” status is when the skeletons start to fall out of the closet. Can Zara maintain the illusion of wealth without getting busted, or will Kwame’s scammer vibes lead them behind bars? THIS IS A STANDALONE NOVELLA.
