Inner Circle

The Wives Association

By: Evelyn Lozada, Courtney Parker

Narrated by: 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.

Utterly AMAZING!!!!!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Damn straight! This was a great audio book and I would recommed to everyone! Too bad it was only fiction.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Inner Circle?

The RED boots and the final BEAT DOWN!

What about Nicole Small’s performance did you like?

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!

Great read

I'm intrigued now and look forward to the next book! Way to go Evelyn and

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.

Pleasantly surprised

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