From Teen Mom to Transformative Author: Realtor Kenyatta Jones-Arietta’s New Book ‘Iron Love’ Launches July 11

Real Estate In-Depth • July 9, 2025

Entrepreneur, speaker, and real estate broker Kenyatta Jones-Arietta is set to launch her highly anticipated debut book, “Iron Love: A Guide to Manifesting, Accepting, and Nurturing True Love,” on July 11. Blending memoir and self-help, the book chronicles her journey from a teenage mother and exotic dancer in Detroit to the founder of a successful multi-state real estate firm, devoted wife, and mother of three—now celebrating 25 years of marriage.

Jones-Arietta has been a contributing columnist to Real Estate In-Depth and is the founder of R2M Realty of Nyack.

More than a love story, Iron Love offers a roadmap for anyone seeking to cultivate deep, intentional relationships—starting with themselves. Through powerful storytelling, spiritual insight, and hard-earned wisdom, Jones-Arietta shares the lessons that helped her break generational cycles, manifest real love, and sustain it through life’s twists and turns.

The book launch will kick off with a celebration at the historic Nyack Bath House on Friday, July 11, followed by a multi-city East Coast book tour retracing the author’s original honeymoon route—stopping in Virginia Beach, with a quick stop in her hometown of Detroit, before continuing on to Myrtle Beach, Charleston, Savannah, St. Augustine, and Miami. Each event will include book signings, engaging talks, and heartfelt conversations centered on love, resilience, and reclaiming your personal story.

"Iron Love is not just a story—it’s an invitation to reclaim your worth, rewrite your narrative, and remember that love—real love—is always worth the work," said Jones-Arietta.

Iron Love will be available in hardcover, paperback, e-book, and audiobook formats through major retailers and independent bookstores. The book is published by Eula Rae Printing & Press, an independent publishing company founded by Jones-Arietta’s daughter, Tiera Rice-Royo.
