With a foreword by New York Times bestselling author Wahida Clark
It’s Christmas in Newark, rent is due, and Vee is officially over it. Over being broke. Over bad men with big dreams. Over a city that never cuts her a break.
Then one reckless move puts a duffel bag in her hands—one she was never supposed to touch. What’s inside could fix everything… or ruin her completely.
Now Vee’s on the run with ‘exit money,’ an obsessive ex who won’t mind his business, and the full attention of Bunny Vasquez—the woman who runs Newark like it’s her personal spreadsheet. Everybody wants their cut, everybody has opinions, and December in Newark does not play fair.
Between house parties, trap houses, and icy city streets, Vee has to decide: give the bag back and go back to scraping by—or keep moving and see just how far this lucky break can take her.
Fast, funny, and full of hustle, Rent Money is an urban thriller with bite, heart, and humor—about choosing yourself, betting on chaos, and finding out freedom never comes with a receipt.
Genre: Urban Fiction
