Every Thug Needs a Lady

New York Times bestselling author Wahida Clark's iconic Thug series takes readers into the streets-and into the heart of a criminal world where even love can be a dangerous choice... Having escaped from the hard streets where deals go down on the corner and shots ring out in the night, sexy, beautiful Roz-friend of Angel, Jaz, and Kyra, who've all loved thugs of their own-is on her way to a professional career in physical therapy. She doesn't need to make a U-turn back to the ghetto. But then she meets Trae, who's still after the bling and fast money of drugs. He's hard, hot, irresistible-and trouble. Soon Roz is wild for a brother whose world is filled with dark schemes and deadly desires. But blinded by her passion, she can't see the heartbreak ahead-where the hood has a law of its own and its own brand of revenge . . .
