About this listen
"Stay Scheming"
Kiki Swinson
Karlie Houston is broke, betrayed - and running from a bounty on her head. Turns out the real owners of the payday loan office she ripped off weren't cool with her idea of employment bennies. With her lover and friends gone, she's forced to take refuge with her cold-hearted grandmother. But with enemies closing in, Karlie's last chance to flip a killer script is ticking down to slim, none - and dead.
"Who Can You Trust?"
Saundra
Struggling bank teller Porsha has no time for Cinderella fantasies. She's working overtime to keep her tragedy-struck family off the streets. But her new boyfriend, Game, is smart, seductive - and sure-thing successful. So why not work his rock-solid plan to steal from her bank? All she's got to lose is more than she can possibly imagine.

Pretty good
The first book was a little all over the place I enjoyed it but it didn't end properly it was missing information so I was still caught up mentally from that first three hours then the second half book was slow starting but once it got going it was pretty good somewhere towards the The middle I begin to see the plot when everyone was introduced I could feel tension that somebody was shady most likely Sasha but I didn't want her to go along with the heist but I have to admit it was not what I had pictured as far as the ending I anticipated her dying or going to jail after they taking the money from the bank but to find out he was married to Keisha and messing with Sacha it was just a twisted tale but overall I gave it the four stars because I love Kiki Swinson the ending was happy that surprised me. Good read overall
