Trice O'Neal and her husband, Troy, only had prize money on their minds when they signed up for the reality show Trading Wives--a knock-off of Wife Swap. The fact that they were swapping with a couple they knew, Leon and Charlene, made it seem harmless. But that couldn't have been further from the truth.
Now Trice is recovering from a gunshot wound and harboring a life-changing secret. Leon is behind bars . . . Troy is out for blood . . . and two marriages are broken. Leon's only hope of gaining his freedom from prison--and from Charlene--is to lay on the charm and make sure to juggle both women's visiting schedules so they never run into each other. But Charlene has a plan of her own, a scheme that will bring everyone to their knees, one by one . . .

Kiki Swinson was born and raised in Portsmouth, Virginia. She discovered her flair for writing after completing her first novel, Mad Shambles, while serving a five-year sentence at a federal prison. After being released in December 1996, Kiki later went on to self-publish Mad Shambles. Her passion for writing didn't stop there. Writing feverishly into the wee hours of the night, she completed her second novel, Wifey, which was published by Melodrama Publishing. After the success of Wifey, Kiki penned the sequels I'm Still Wifey and Life After Wifey, as well as The Candy Shop and A Sticky Situation.
This is a very good series but only gave it four stars because the first 2 installments were free, now I have to pay for the other two. The author knew you would get hooked and need to know the outcome so you will pay to know,could have been one book I can't stand when they do that. Never the last can't not their hustle lol😃
Is it ironic to say that this book was better then the first one ??? I can't wait to get reloaded - part 3
This book had me like WOOOW . First off let me say that Charlene is a sneaky ass bitch and trice is a survivor . Some people died in this book that had me questioning WHY .
Trice is still caught between her feelings of Leon and she is pregnant now . Leon swears up and down that its his baby but you see later on in the book that it's a spitting image of Troy . But it's way to late then. She is secretly sneaking around to see Leon. For what ?? He damn near killed shorty . That's a no go.. She does end up caught and red handed and there is no turning back from that one .
Troy .. He got some guts this time go around he was so stuck up trice ass and trying to save his marriage that when he found out the truth and what she was doing he couldn't handle it and he took all the wrong routes . He damn near gave up half of his retirement money for a hit man to kill his wife so he can get the insurance money.. He goes through with Charlene & that's goes south and he ends up getting shot , going to trial and getting life in prison for trying to get his wife killed and the murder of his unborn baby
Charlene . Irkful . She was so shiesty but had everyone fooled as if she was dumb .. She was riding with Leon up until she found out that he was still fcking around with trice and that trice was pregnant with his baby .., Charlene is the one that got her cousin dray into the Murder / hit of trice.. She ended up saying Fck everyone and took off with Troy money . Troy ended up getting her got ..
Leon .. He is what I would call a pimp gone poor he ended up losing both the females from how side and often caused Trouble in the jail . . He ended up dying after Charlene hired some niggas to beat him up ..
This type had the idiotic one coming back for revenge and I'm so ready for part 3 can only get worse from here !!
i liked part two better than the first there was more action and it was sorta intense. even though Leon started to get on my nerves in this book i wasn't expecting him to die so soon. karma is a bad bitch and trice sees that now she could've did things so differently. I didn't believe her and Leon loved each other i think they were in love with the idea of what each missed out on their marriage and what they saw in each other i didn't see them together in the end. troy and Charlene are jus lost causes. after receiving the life sentence you think he would've just took it and mourned his days for killing his own child but nigga goes after trice again. i hope part three is as good as this can't wait
This was a really good read it started right where the first one left off. The characters in this book were crazy as fruit cakes. They were so busy trying to get revenge that they didn't see the bigger picture which was death and prison time. I was really upset about the situation that happen just broke my heart. That's what happens when you don't think some innocent person gets hurt. This was one of the hardest books that I had to read in a long time. I give this book 5 stars. I can't wait to read part 3...
The beginning starts off slow...but after it picked up, it was a drama filled...that dang Charlene is a mess and definitely back for revenge. She is so wrapped up in her thirst for revenge that she doesnt understand the severity of her actions. Action packed!!!
Wow this book was crazy as hell.I def wasn't expecting all the betrayal and lies and drama that it brought.Im in shock at Troy forreal.I wanted to cry for Trice that was awful forreal.Now I hated that ending but I def can't wait for part three
It was a good read it wasnt what I exected, but I really enjoyed it. I would love to hear more from the second story from the first wifey extraordinaire.
