An Urban Comedy-Drama by Jeff Mills. Sharnice Johnson has never been able to keep a relationship longer than a pack of eyelashes in rain. After her latest breakup goes viral-thanks to a cheating ex, a borrowed car, and a Cheesecake Factory receipt- she swears she's choosing stability over struggle. So, when she lands a job at the Maryland Correctional Center, Sharnice believes she's finally leveling up: steady paycheck, benefits, and men who can't cheat because they literally can't leave. But inside those prison walls, Sharnice learns that charm ain't confined to the free world. Enter Marcel-smooth, handsome, articulate, and dangerously patient. He sees what Sharnice doesn't: her soft heart, her loneliness... and her usefulness. What starts as a tiny favor-mailing a "harmless" letter- spirals into a maze of manipulation, mystery packages, and whispered threats. Soon, Sharnice is tangled in a web she never meant to spin, and the line between helping and hustled gets dangerously blurry. With Internal Affairs closing in, inmate gossip swirling, and her cousin Mesha yelling "GIRL, RUN " every five minutes, Sharnice must decide whether to fold, fight, or finally free herself from the mess she walked straight into. A hilarious, heartfelt, and high-stakes rollercoaster, Her Passion, My Profit is an urban dramedy about temptation, manipulation, and one woman learning that love isn't love when your freedom is the price. Perfect for readers who love: Messy relationships with real consequences Women who fall down, get up, and fight back Urban stories with heart, danger, and comedy mixed in Sharnice survived bad boyfriends, strip-mall love, and broke poets- but can she survive a smooth-talking inmate with an agenda?
