Korporate's Pleasure
The Strong family. A family filled with hustlers, breadwinners, and stone-cold killers. They run one of the biggest drug operations to ever come out of Miami, Florida. The business dates back to the 1940s when Kamil Strong created it with his blood, sweat, and tears. So here we are, well over 80 years later, and the business is now in the hands of Korporate Strong, the great-grandson of Kamil Strong. Alongside Korporate is his mother, Shadae Strong, wife of the late Kato Strong, who felt compelled to leave the business to his wife and oldest son. Of course, not everyone was in agreement with Kato’s choice, which contributed to the ongoing family drama. Korporate is the oldest son of three boys. His brothers, Kaotic and Kody, are well-known party boys, but when the family needs them, it’s all business.
Next to every good man is a good woman. Married to Korporate for ten years, Pleasure Strong is from the slums of Miami. Right after high school, she became an exotic dancer and went by the name, Fantasy. Many of Korporate’s family and friends have had the pleasure of witnessing Fantasy dance on stage. Although her dancing days are long over, some people refuse to recognize the young businesswoman she’s become.
This book is filled with so many secrets and lies. A lot of drama happens within the family business, along with new enemies popping up left and right. Take a ride on this long journey with the Strong family and see how dirty this family can get down.

Literally, I didn’t do anything but laugh this whole book because the things that came out of the characters’ mouths in this book were nonsense and hilarious . I do not like the flow of the book at all and how it transitions into different characters, and all of the characters’ names sound exactly like I can’t tell you who’s who besides the two main characters, and the author has a way of repeating the same information throughout the book multiple times like we get it. And because I’m messy, I have to read the next book because it ends on a cliffhanger.

Didn't like at all!
I really wanted to like this book since it was by Diamond Johnson but it wasn't doing anything for me! It reminded me of other books she's written with the same descriptions of sex scenes, lots of cussing which I didn't like and too repetitive with the descriptions of body parts, etc! I couldn't finish this one! Sorry Diamond, I'm going to have to pass on this series!

It was an okay read. Not Diamond's best work and I'm sorry, but the sex scenes lasting for five plus pages is becoming too much for me. I'm undecided if I will read the next book.

Yessssssss love it
Wowwwwwwww what a way to end this book. You know, for some reason, I felt like something like this was going to happen. I'm just trying to figure out when the other secret about Kyle and Shandra going to come out. I'm about to read part 2. Good job, Diamond

Long winded book!!
This story was all over the place at first and I just can't believe it took me a week to read one of my favorite authors books. Baby when I tell you she dropped a cliffhanger on us with that young man popping up, whew Chile just read this. I can't even get into Korporate or his wife character because my mouth is still on the floor. You won't see it coming. Very good read once it flows.

Love It
Diamond has done it again! Korporate and Pleasure are strong individuals who were bound to be together! I love their relationship and the respect they had for each other! Family was kind of broken but Love each other in their own way. Corporate was the perfect example why his father left everything to him and his mother! I'm hopeful that Shadae indiscretion with her late husband brother don't come out, but I know it will. That ending though, I hope Pleasure understands that Korporate had no idea he had a son!

Great Read
Korporate and Pleasure will be okay because the child was before her. She's hurting right now, but she'll eventually forgive him. He didn't even know about his son. Kyle is definitely going to make Korporate hurt him due to his betrayal. He doesn't know when to stop. Korporate will always protect his family and business first and his brothers will be there to help. Great read.

WOW
This story was good from beginning to end. The Strong Organization is about their business and taking care of those who cross them. But with every family business, there is always one person who wants to be a top dog. I love Korporate and Pleasure's relationship. This family has so many secrets that are bound to come out, and with that new revelation at the end, will Pleasure and Korporate's relationship survive.

Meet Korporate and Pleasure. Pleasure hung up her dancing shoes, and became the wife.
Both of them experienced trauma in their young lives, but did not seek any assistance, therefore, after years this still affects them.
Of course there are several secrets that will come to light and cannot wait to see how those individuals will handle them!
Not too surprised at the ending because there were some hints, but I’m sure Pleasure will be regretting doing so much vacuuming IJS!

Wow
How did I know by Korporate mentioning Zavia and not using protection she was going to come in the picture with a baby. Well this changes so much now. Pleasure can’t be mad because this was before her. She’s going to have to deal with it. BB boys seems as if they can be wiped out and I’m thinking why are the Strong crew waiting for them to keep making moves first. On to the next book because I’m buckled up for the ride.

Hard To Put Down
Pleasure and Korporate living their best lives in this drug world. The love these two shared is deep and they have no desire for no one else. Korporate’s love and care for Pleasure can’t be mistaken by anyone. He would go to the ends of the world for her! Pleasure is the same way for Korporate. Then there is the family…loved how this book provided the details of each family member, preparing you for book 2. Great read! Now let’s buckle up.

I can read more. seeing where it takes me.
More dialogue would be nice. This book read like a long book of soliloquies where the characters speak to the audience in second person. Good story line, but I would have like it to be read more like a book. Lots of explicit scenes between Korporate and Pleasure… I just knew there was going to be a bombshell at the end. The dialogue had me predicting the ending before it arrived.

You never ever disappoint me when you put a book out. This book was everything and I most definitely can’t wait for the next book. I just hope that Korporate and Pleasure and get through this with him having a son. I want them to come out on top with everything that they have going on. I love them together though.

This is the first book I’ve read by Diamond (and I’ve read them ALL) that really didn’t move me. It’s not holding my interest and that’s disappointing because when I see her name I know I’ll get a good read. Not this time. Hopefully the next book in the series will be better. 🤞🏾

The uncle who slept with Shadae he needs sorting out, he will be causing problems soon. Can't wait for part two, with all of this and the problems with the BB boys things are looking to be FIRE.

Goodt!!
Ran across this book, never heard of the author. After reading the first review I saw I was intrigued. Gave it a try and I’m glad I did. I was hooked after the first couple pages. Finished it in 1 day. The main characters go fit so well. Baby the drama! I love it. Great read I’m off to read 2 and 3! Ok Bye!!

Strong Korporation
Another excellent story by Ms. Diamond D! 💎 Korporarte and Pleasure Strong had been wed for ten years, and there was no one in Miami who was deeper in the narcotics game than he was! Now, Korporarte had enemies coming from all directions, but the one thing that keeps him grounded is his Pleasure!

Thoroughly Enjoyed
At first, I skipped to part 2 to see if the drama would pick up a bit then continued to read. Korporate and Pleasure have been married for 10+ years and throughout the book stuff starts to hit the fan but their love and bond is real. There are moments where you’re like, “IDK how she deals with this man!!”
On to officially read part 2
