Have A Baby By Me, Baby, Be A Millionaire
Kingston Royal has everything money can buy - a real estate empire, a supermodel wife, a mansion behind gates that never open without his permission, and a smile that's convinced an entire city he's the best thing to happen to Black Atlanta in a generation. What he doesn't have is an heir.
When his wife Simone learns she can never carry a child, the Royals go looking for a surrogate - and find Naomi Brooks, a broke, exhausted social worker drowning in medical debt she didn't even rack up herself. The money is life-changing. The contract is airtight. The rules are simple: no attachments, no exceptions, nine months, done.
Nothing about it stays simple.
Moved into a guest house wired with cameras she didn't ask for, behind a gate that won't open when she wants to leave, Naomi finds an unlikely friend in the last woman she expected - the wife she was hired to help. As the two women start comparing notes on the man they both depend on, they uncover the same ugly truth from two different directions: a hidden mistress, a pattern of people who've quietly vanished from Kingston's orbit, and a fortune built on decades of buried family secrets that go back long before either of them signed anything.
By the time a homicide detective starts connecting the dots, a defense attorney starts building his own case, and someone in the house makes a move nobody saw coming, the only question left is who's going to survive Kingston Royal - and who's going to walk away richer than they ever imagined, for reasons that have nothing to do with love.
A domestic thriller about money, motherhood, and exactly what it costs to sit at a rich man's table.
Fans of The Perfect Marriage, Behind Closed Doors, and Blackout will devour this fast-paced, twist-filled ride through Atlanta's Black elite - where every gala hides a secret, every marriage hides a ledger, and every promise has a price tag nobody mentions until it's already too late to walk away.
