In this, page-turning prequel to the Playing Dirty and Notorious
duology, national bestselling author Kiki Swinson never lets up with
her high-octane depictions of striving and scheming in the Dirty South,
taking readers on a wild ride to the early days of Yoshi Lomax, when she
was an ambitious law student making her way in the privileged circles of
academia...
The perfect edge...
Brilliant, calculating, and reckless, Yoshi hungers to be a great
lawyer, to make a difference--and to make her hard-working mother proud.
But her prestigious law school is a rigged system of overwhelming work
and hostile professors. On the outs with her best friend, and on the
verge of flunking out, she soon finds a shortcut that could make all her
dreams come true.
The perfect elite...
The school's wealthiest students live in a world where they make their
own rules, are born into priceless connections, and enjoy endless
entitlement. And Yoshi wastes no time infiltrating their privileged
circle, learning their ways, adopting their bad habits--and getting much
too close.
The perfect trap...
Until Yoshi discovers that every little lie, dirty secret, and easy
betrayal is hiding a secret even she isn't willing to keep. Now with
everything she cares about on the line, she must make a wrenching choice
that could cost her more than her life . . .
