Product Description
by Tahari Banks (Author)
Ratchet & Reckless is a fire-starter collection of eight unforgettable stories that explore what happens when love turns lethal, loyalty cracks under pressure, and silence is no longer an option. Set against the backdrop of group chats, church pews, trap houses, and viral moments, these raw, unfiltered narratives center women who are done playing by anyone's rules but their own.
At the heart of it all are women who know how to love hard, lose louder, and come back swinging. A best friend's betrayal sparks a digital war. A plus-size beauty gets humiliated by a man who wanted her in secret and silenced in public. A preacher's daughter transforms from church girl to trap queen after falling for a kingpin with demons of his own. A side chick unravels a dead man's lies and rewrites her role in the story he tried to erase. These women aren't here to be rescued, they're reclaiming everything: their power, their voice, and their name.
From backstabbing to Birkin bags, grief to grit.
Ratchet & Reckless is about survival with edge, healing with attitude, and legacy born in chaos. These stories will make you laugh, clutch your pearls, question your friends, and root for the women society loves to judge but secretly fears. Each page turns like a confession. Each ending hits like a punchline.
If you've ever been underestimated, disrespected, or pushed past your breaking point, this is the book that sees you, speaks for you, and dares you to never shrink again.
