Bethani Jones had the beauty, the talent, and the eye to turn fabric into money—but the fashion industry kept slamming doors in her face.
Interview after interview, boutique after boutique, Bethani was told she was too bold, too street, too much, and not the right fit. But what they really meant was they wanted her creativity without giving her a seat at the table.
Tired of rejection, Bethani stops begging the workforce to recognize her gift and takes her fashion skills straight to the streets. From custom birthday fits to clubwear, celebrity looks, and bossed-up designs for women with curves, confidence, and cash, Bethani builds a brand nobody can ignore.
The same style the industry rejected becomes the very thing that makes her rich.
But when a powerful fashion executive steals Bethani’s designs and tries to pass them off as luxury, Bethani learns the game is dirtier than she thought. Now she has to protect her name, expose the truth, and decide if she wants industry approval—or full ownership of everything she built.
No romance. No rescue. No begging.
Bethani Jones is going from overlooked to overpaid, and the people who rejected her are about to learn one thing:
The streets don’t just follow fashion. Sometimes, the streets create it.
From Rejected to Rich is a bold urban fiction novella about ambition, betrayal, fashion, money, female hustle, and one woman’s rise from rejection to wealth.
