The 716 Back To Business

The 716
Back To Business

Death changed everything… but the streets of Buffalo never stop moving.

After a devastating loss, the women of The 716 are trying to pick up the pieces and move forward. But in the hood, pain doesn’t heal, it hardens you. And when loyalty, love, and street business collide, everybody ends up bleeding.

Anika Townson is determined to leave the chaos of the streets behind her. Pregnant and in love with Aaron, she finally believes she has a shot at the fairytale life she’s always wanted: marriage, family, peace, and a future far away from the drama tied to her family’s name. But the streets don’t let people walk away clean. Secrets from Aaron’s past and unfinished business from Anika’s own past will force them both to confront the truth about who they really are before they can ever build a future together.

Meanwhile, Monica is still doing what Monica does best: loving men, leaving them wanting more, and never letting anybody get too close. But when one unexpected encounter turns into something deeper than lust, Monica finds herself facing emotions she’s spent years running from. For the first time in her life, the woman who plays everybody else might be the one getting played by love.

Then there’s Yazz.

Returning to Buffalo after running away with Jay, Yazz is no longer the carefree girl everyone remembers. Life on the road with a street legend came with passion, danger, and lessons that changed her forever. While Jay’s love gave her strength, the street life showed her just how temporary happiness can be. Now back home, Yazz is caught between the man she loves and the growing realization that she may need to save herself before the streets destroy them both.

And what about the men?

With Que stepping deeper into the FAM’s criminal empire, power is finally within reach, but power comes with enemies, unwanted pressure, and sacrifices. Torn between his loyalty to the streets and the woman he never stopped loving, Que must decide if redemption is even possible for a man like him.

Jay, on the other hand, is desperate to keep his promise to leave the game behind for Yazz. But in Buffalo, once you’re connected to the FAM, there’s no such thing as walking away. The streets always collect what’s owed… one way or another.

Set against the soundtrack of the mid-1990s, Back to Business pulls readers deeper into the gritty world of The 716 — where love is dangerous, and survival comes at a cost. Everybody claims they’re built for the streets… until the streets start fighting back. The 716: Back to Business is the explosive second installment in the bestselling urban saga by A.A. Lewis, packed with drama, heartbreak, betrayal, hood politics, and the kind of love that can either save you… or bury you.
