TRUST AND BELIEVE EVERYBODY IS BOUND TO CRASH ON THE ROAD TO THE TOP AND THE FALL TO THE BOTTOM. BLAKE KARRINGTON TAKES YOU BACK DOWN THE SOUTHERN STREETS THAT MADE HIM THE KING OF THE LITERARY SOUTH.
Blake Karrington is more than an author. He’s a storyteller who places his readers in action-filled moments. It’s in these creative spaces that readers are allowed to get to know his complex characters as if they’re really alive.
Most of Blake’s titles are in the South in urban settings that are often overlooked by the mainstream. But through Blake’s eyes, readers quickly learn that places like Charlotte, NC can be as gritty as they come. It’s in these streets of this oft overlooked world where Blake portrays murderers and thieves alike as believable characters. Without judgement, he weaves humanizing backstories that serve up compelling reasons for why a drug dealer might choose a life of crime.
Readers of speak of the roller coaster ride of emotions that ensues from feeling anger at empathetic characters who always seem to do the wrong thing at the right to keep the story moving forward.
In terms of setting,Blake’s stories introduce his readers to spaces they may or may not be used to - streetscapes with unkept, cracked sidewalks where poverty prevails, times are depressed and people are broke and desperate. In Blake storytelling space, morality is so curved that rooting for bad guys to get away with murder can sometimes seem like the right thing for the reader to do - even when it’s not.
Readers who connect with Blake find him to be relatable. Likening him to a bad-boy gone good, they see a storyteller who writes as if he’s lived in world’s he generously shares, readily conveying his message that humanity is everywhere, especially in the unlikely, mean streets of cities like Charlotte.
I'm so glad that Gwen and Niya are back as a team. Together they are a force to be reckoned with! I hate that Gwen and Chad lost their son but I believe she's pregnant. Can't wait to see what happens in the next book!
Rose who once a detective, now is Mhb she felt thepower of respect loyalty and family Niya knew once she went into the house everyone coming together especially with Gwen is a good thing
I couldn't put this book down because I enjoyed reading Country Girls 3. I have learned a lot from this book. I like the concept and vibe in this book. This book is dealing with a lot of money, drug, sex, family and other. Country Girls 3 picks up from Country Girls 2.
I'm happy that Gwen and Niya are back to friends. I felt sorry for what's happen to Zion. My prayer goes to Gwen, Chad and her mom because Zion didn't deserve what happen to him. I had to stop reading at the part because its hard for me to reading. The situation is really Gwen fault. I hope he is still alive. I'm happy that MHB is a independent, and strong group of women.
So far, Country Girls 3 is good book. Once again, Blake Karrington did a good job. He is a good and author for this book. He takes his time to writing for this book. This is my fourth book reading from this author.
I choose the rating of 20.5 stars because both book and author deserve the stars. It's really a good book and it's always on point. I'm looking forward reading another book from this author.
Mr Karrington does not disappoint in this companion to the the Country Boys trilogy.. The ending was a little weak and kind of biased undertone. Leaving room for lots of scenarios in this crave for female dominance in a male dominated "game" of life!! It is almost a guarantee a fourth novella is coming..
s disappointed in this book...what the hell happened it like reading a totally different story what does these characters have to do with part 1&2 I've read half of the book and still do get the connection it's like the characters from 1-2 have just disappeared. I'm so bored with book I can't read anymore part 3 sucks!!!
This book and the other book have me moved. I eat sleep and breathe COUNTRY GIRLS. I love it. when I finish reading this book, I have to find something new to feed my desire for MHB
This series just keeps getting better and better...a few surprises I didn't see coming and I'm overly anxious to see what's about to happen next. About to 1-CLICK book #4
Action on every page. Loyalty among MHB is something you don't see anymore. They fight , they argue but in the end loyalty reigns true. You will enjoy this series.
