Product Description
If you make it through the gates which house Emerald City, one of D.C. s deadliest projects, you ll run into four women with colorful ski coats and designer jeans. And if you don t belong, you ll quickly find out what they have nestled inside the Marc Jacob or Louis Vuitton purses they keep closely to them. These females aren t just pretty faces. They were taken out of their beds and placed on the throne by the hustler s they loved. Their only request was that the Emerald City squad remain true. But when Thick, the self proclaimed leader of the clique decides to bring an outside chick into the picture, to floss using the money their girlfriends earned, the security of the operation is jeopardized, sides are chosen and all hell breaks loose. Immediately they decide to remove the gang-stresses from power to prevent their emotions from interfering with business. But it s easier said than done and their ungratefulness only insights their fury. Once they shared their beds together, now they fought a war against one another for the ownership of a million dollar empire. Four women against their ex men. Who will reign supreme? The men who taught them everything they knew about the game? Or the Pitbulls In A Skirt?

 Loyalty Tested!!! July 29, 2009
~Minah~ (VA, USA)
Where should your loyalty lie? With your significant other or business? Which one will be there in the end?
The answers to these questions is what the players of Emerald City have to face. Yvette, Mercedes, Carissa, and Kenyetta, the four thoroughest chics, has to juggle holding down the fort and maintaining their relationships and families. They are hoping that the men of their lives and business partners are doing the same. Everything is running rather smoothly until an unforseen tragedy occurs, that will change their lives. Will the drama continue, could they hold and keep it together, or would they eventually have to choose sides? If so, who will end up on top?
Mikal Malone has definitely blessed us a five star, shocking, and appealing page turner.

One of the Best Books of 08 January 12, 2009
Tiffany Y. Brutus (MD)
WOW! I am speechless! I am so upset that it took me so long to read this book. I enjoyed every single page of this book. It was good to see a different angle of street lit. The women were ruling the streets in Pitbulls In A Skirt. I can't wait to read part 2.
Must read December 20, 2008
Ms. Cutie who loves to read (Miami, Florida)
This book left me with my mouth wide open. I had been back and forth with myself on should I read this book. I finally did and this book is a page turner, I read it in less than one day. This book is not normally the type of book I read,but those were some bad chicks. Can't wait to the sequel comes out. If you have not read Pittbulls in A Skirt go out and pick it up.
Emerald City Gate Keepers!!!!! December 9, 2008
Hotchklate (Bronx, N.Y.)
Behind every strong man lies a strong woman and no woman embodied that saying more than Yvette, Mercedes, Carissa and Kenyetta. But these ladies did way more than just stand behind their men; they took ride or die chick mentality to the next level and literally hugged the block for Thick, Cameron, Lavelle and Dyson! They entrusted their better halves to hold down D.C.'s Emerald City Projects which they did willingly to help their families make it out of the hood.
But when Thick's relationship with Yvette sours once he gets caught cheating, in a test of loyalty Thick convinces Cameron, Lavelle and Dyson to turn their backs on the women. But after single-handedly running Emerald City there's no way the ladies are just gonna turn it over to the men who turned their backs on them. Will the women be able to outsmart the same men that taught them the game?
Author Mikal Malone delivers with Pitbulls in a Skirt! The characters are realistic and the struggle to control Emerald City will have readers captivated. Cartel Publications has yet another hit on its hands because Pitbulls in a Skirt will definitely make it on to many readers' top reads for 2008 list as it did for mine!!!!!
 Loved it! December 5, 2008
