RAW Rating: 4.0 (out of 5)

This sequel to PAYBACK IS A MUTHA begins just after a devastated Brianna responded desperately after receiving life-altering news. Pregnant and alone, Shan is left to deal with her best friend Brianna’s fate and the uncertainty of her own future.

A devastated Shan moves to Detroit to start a new life. A bittersweet twist of luck lands her with an unexpected love interest from her past named Briggen, and Shan feels happier than she has for a long time. She continues to be hopeful that her new location and job will help her forget her troubled past, but a former love interest won’t let sleeping dogs lie.

In the meantime, Shan’s faithful brother, Peanut, has his own relationship issues with love interest Nyla. Unaware of Nyla’s true identity, Peanut lets his guard down and opens his heart to Nyla and her daughter. As the story unfolds, Shan, Briggen, Peanut and Nyla learn how their lives are intertwined and how their relationships will cause havoc—and even death—within their families.

In Wahida Clark fashion, PAYBACK WITH YA LIFE is a fast-paced urban lit story that keeps fans turning the pages. Clark is a talented author, and it’s good to see her come back on the writing scene with this much-anticipated sequel.
