Jemeker Thompson-Hairston paid a heavy price for her involvement in the drug game. Learning from her sources of a federal investigation, Jemeker went on the run. It was love for her young son that brought her back to Los Angeles, even though she knew she would be arrested. A subsequent 15-year sentence would cost her not only her legitimate business and the fortune she'd amassed through the drug trade, but the most precious thing of all: time with her child. But not all was lost. Fortunately, while Thompson-Hairston was serving out the fifteen-year sentence, one pivotal moment helped her turn her life around, setting her on a path to help and inspire others like her. Now, in QUEEN PIN, written with New York Times bestselling author David Ritz, she reveals in gripping detail her journey of redemption that readers won't soon forget.

There’s nothing better to start my day than a bubble bath.
A warm bubble bath always clears my head and calms my nerves. As long as I’m in the tub, my body is relaxed, my mind calm, my emotions at ease, and my soul at peace. I’m on the top floor of a luxury South Beach Miami hotel, overlooking the beautiful turquoise blue of the ocean.
Last night, I ended up with a man whose bed I left just hours ago—a one-night stand with one of the Kansas City Chiefs. I don’t care if I ever hear from him again. Last night wasn’t about him, it was all about me.
Suddenly the phone rings.

I’m alone and confused and unwilling to admit it. I’m not living in the deepest part of my mind. Instead, I’m living on the surface and skating over thin ice. I’m holding on to control because they’ve been chasing me. I’ve been running so that I can’t be caught. Being caught is not an option. There are no mistakes allowed. They can make mistakes. But I can’t. As long as I stay in control, I keep my freedom.
I listen to the phone ring. Could be the front desk and could be the Feds. All I know is that no one should be calling me here. So much for relaxation; my therapy session is over.
I climb out of the tub and begin to dress myself: Bob Mackie suit, Maud Frizon pumps, gold Rolex, diamond tennis bracelet, imported Italian wig. Everything that I’m not wearing is packed and ready to go.
