Confessions of a Hustla's Daughter
Daddy’s girl isn’t a little girl anymore. Juleena always knew she wanted to go away to college; she just didn’t know it would be New York. That was until she met and fell in love with her boyfriend, Mooski, a few summers ago. Juleena knew she wanted to be close to him, so she applied to every college possible in the tristate area just so she could be close to him. Ju’s plan was to always attend NYU, so when she got accepted into Fordham university, she felt herself straying from her life’s path that she planned for herself. Juleena thought moving to New York would make she and Mooski closer. Instead, the two of them couldn’t be further apart. With Juleena being in college and having a newfound freedom, she ends up meeting the star football player at her school, Shaheed Hall. Juleena has always had eyes for Mooski. He’s her first love and the one she wants to spend her life with. The thought of Shaheed is something she can’t seem to shake, and his feelings are mutual. How will Juleena manage college, an older boyfriend and being miles away from her father?
Sidney thought she had died and gone to heaven when Meech moved her in with him. Norma, her mother, had always taught her to use what she had to get whatever she wanted. Sidney thought she finally got what she wanted – Meech. The things that used to make her happy as a seventeen-year-old just doesn’t do it anymore. What was once glitter and gold quickly turns into shit and flies. While Meech just tosses material things at her, she craves his time and energy. For her 20th birthday, Meech sends Sidney to Miami with her girls. While he's trying to get Sidney out of his sight for a few days, Sidney ends up in the sights of another man – Big Reem

And these are their confessions…
My girl Ju Ju is transitioning into a college woman and with that comes the demand of maturity on all levels.
This book is like the old stencil on car rear view mirrors, “Objects in the mirror are closer than where they appear.”
I loved each and every page of this tale!

Review
This installment was focused on the children. Juleena was the primary focus. It picked up shortly after the end of the original series. The children were in college with Juleena being 17. There were some very real-world situations so much so that I forgot how young they were.
At any rate, the brothers Meech & Mooski were ummm something else. There were 2 "oh sh*t" moments that make me ready for part 2. Good job on the

Wow
This well written story is full of drama. Juliana has made a mess. Planning her life around her relationship with Mooski. She was all about him and he is all about someone else. Her cousin Sydney has been led astray by listening to her sorry excuse of a mother. A mother that is only using her and doesn't give a damn about her daughter. I can't wait for part two of this fire read.

That ending thou…….🤯🤯🤯😲😲😲

Whewwwww chile
I KNEW ITTTTTTTTTT. I had a feeling this whole time that Mooski was RJ side piece. I just hope Ju leaves him alone and continues to take things slow with Sha. I really hope this was a wake-up call for Sidney to leave Meech alone and really give Reem a chance because a baby and sleeping with her momma Norma, it's no coming back from that. This read was too good. I'm shocked right now, Jahquel.

I knew it was going to be somebody that he was sleeping with that she knew that was close to her. Man he's scandalous and RJ is too. No wonder he wants her to leave Mooski alone. Big Reem is bae. I hope he takes Sidney away from Meech. Don't get me started on her trifling a** mother of hers she all to be ashamed of herself. Hurry up part two.

SHEESH!!!!!!!!
When I found out this was a spin-off I almost didn’t want to read it but so glad that I did. Norma is a piece of work and I’m glad Sid finally knows the truth about who her father is and Meech. Although I knew there was something going on with Mooski, never would have guessed it was RJ. Can’t wait to get book 2.

When it rain it storm.
For these to be some young ladies, they are experiencing some things that older women’s has never. From dating to family problems. All of this is a lot for nineteen and twenty year old. I can’t wait to part two cause I’m just stuck on at all of this that’s going on with the young ladies at early age.

I knew
they were messing around in the previous series just from his reaction to the name RJ… just saying. It wasn’t a surprise at all for me.
Now… what I don’t understand about this author’s old books is why she thinks a man is the reason a woman can be happy. I don’t get why she believe women need a man to make them happy, but to each their own 🤦🏽♀️

Whoa, I felt that!!!
I felt he might've been on the low and that it might be RJ. That had to be crushing to Juleena, I hope he doesn't try to hurt her like his father did his mom. Loved it and waiting on part 2.
