Inner Circle

The Wives Association

De: Evelyn Lozada, Courtney Parker

Narrado por: Nicole Small

Evelyn Lozada, the breakout star of VH1’s hit reality show Basketball Wives, brings you her first novel in the hot new series the Wives Association. Inner Circle is a jaw-dropping peek into the lives of a group of women married to professional athletes. It will be impossible to determine where real life ends and fiction begins in this gripping novel. Inner Circle depicts the life of Evelyn Lozada’s off-camera alter ego, Eve Inez. Much like The Basketball Wives, Inner Circle reveals everything athletes’ wives live through, complete with the cheating, scandal, manipulation, and gossip. And this time, nothing is being held back.

None of the wives are prepared for how addictive their rich lifestyles can be, and they find themselves stooping to unimaginable levels of deception to preserve their social status. Eve encourages the wives to band together and becomes the mastermind behind the drastic measures these women take to maintain their celebrity - until she herself comes face to face with a reality that shakes her to the core. The riveting ending will leave listeners dying for more.

Evelyn Lozada was born in Brooklyn and always aspired to break out of her relatively small world. She now lives in Miami, co-owns Dulce, an upscale shoe boutique, and is engaged to New England Patriots wide receiver Chad Ochocinco. She takes great pride in being a devoted mother and businesswoman.

The RED boots and the final BEAT DOWN!

Ms Nicole was why the book was so amazing, she changed accents on point. Great job!

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

it made me laugh and cry. Others around me were wondering why such a response, it was like listening to a soap opera, there were thrills, chills and RED Boots! I'm very vocal and animated, I was doing a lot of "Hell Yeah's, Damn Straight's and OMG What the HELLs!"

Any additional comments?

Can't wait until the next book comes out, looking forward to it, hurry up Eve!

Pleasantly Surprized

What did you love best about Inner Circle?

I expected it to be quite pitiful but I liked it in the end.

What other book might you compare Inner Circle to and why?

Any book by Luticia Lovely. Scandal within wealthy African American society.

Have you listened to any of Nicole Small’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

no

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, I did during work instead of music.

Any additional comments?

I kinda wished They kept the "non MF factor " reference out. Since I also watch Basketball wives, it made it a bit predicable for me. Evelyn lost a bit of original creativity.

enjoyable read

i could barely stop listening. I Ioved the sound effects. the narrator was also good.

Pleasantly surprised

Very good storyline, believable, and vibrant characters. I could not put it down and was craving more.

Surprised but delightful

I am simply amazed that these reality stars are able to put together such a good story lines. This book was a good read and was well put together it kept me engaged and wanting to find out what will happen next. I know that I want to read the next book to find out what will happen to the main character and her best friend. There are vivid sexual scenes but this book isn't raunchy but is along the lines of being classy and interesting. The Narrator was very good and the twist and turns in the book will make you say WOW I wasn't expecting that.

Could not stop listening to it!!!
