Double Dose
Have being selfish ever cost you? Do you ever regret being foolishly in love? Why is it that when we know something isn't good for us we indulge until it makes us sick? These are the questions Nivea, Coco, and Brandy ask.
Nivea has two lovers and she loves them both the same. No matter how hard she tries to live up to her marriage vows to JayVon Deeds, her desire for another seems to make it impossible. Will Nivea’s betrayal destroy her perfect marriage?
Some would say that Coco is the baby-momma from hell. She's insecure and quick to fly off-the-handle, but blame it on the man who she’s given her all to—TrayVon Deeds. He's disrespectful; he neglects her; and he loves her, but he’s not in love with her. He may not have come out and said it, but his actions prove it all. Will Coco get tired of his selfishness, lies, and disrespect, or will she ride until the wheels fall off?
Brandy lives to be the best mother she can be to her son. Her desire is to give him what she had as a child—love—and what she didn't have a—two-parent home. She works as an RN for the County of Los Angles, and she and her baby-daddy live together. Unfortunately, she's a casualty of generational curses; just like her mom, she's in an unhealthy relationship. She can’t decide if she wants out . . . Until she meets one of the Deeds brothers, and he begins to remind her of her worth. Will his words of wisdom be enough to make her want out?
These three women have different stories; however, they have one thing in common: the Deeds brothers—JayVon and TrayVon.

Three women find themselves having a double dose.
Nivea has a great life with a great husband. She is very happy but one night of comfort gets her in a lifetime full of trouble. Will she be able to live happily ever after
CoCo the ghetto babymoma cant seem to keep it together. All she wants is to have her baby daddy love her. Trying everything to get his attention she sees that he will never be a one women man how will she handle the situation.
Brandy has a good job, own car and house. Trying to have a two parent home for her son, she find herself unhappy and abused by the hands of her son father.Tried of the drama she finds herself falling for a man that has all these women in a bind. A Deed brother!
A good short read. The storyline was very interesting.I must say that it was a few errors and words missing but it didn't take away from the storyline. The ending also just has a sudden cliffhanger. I will continue on to part two.

I love JayVon!!! But his twin, TrayVon.... I have a love/hate feeling towards him. I like how the authors wrote something for each character to show their softer likeable side even if for most of them it was easy to really dislike them. It at least showed how whoever they were dealing with saw something in them to entice them. Very few errors written, the story flowed well and definitely held my attention. I will be reading part 2 to see what is to come from the skeletons that seemed to be falling out of the closet at the end of the book. If you like drama mixed with some ratchet, a sprinkle of "bougie", rolled in some thug behavior then you'll enjoy this read.

Nivea has the man of her dreams and the life that many people could only dream of. After an unfortunate accident goes down with her husband she begins to get closer to his twin brother. She knows that it's the worse form of betrayal but something just won't let her stop. What will it take for her to move on and cut all ties from her brother in law?
I really enjoyed reading this book. Double Dose is full of betrayals, twists, turns, and drama overload. I couldn't wait to see what was next and how secrets would be uncovered. Unfortunately I will have to wait until book 2 to see how things unfold. I do believe that things could have been wrapped up in this one book preventing a series.

The title, Double Dose most certainly fits this read to the t. Nivea is a beautiful woman who lives a good life and has a solid marriage to a wonderful man, JayVon Deeds. Too bad not all pictures stay perfect and when something goes terribly wrong, she seeks to drown her pain in a 'Double Dose'. Throw in baby mama drama, 'double crosses' and too many concidences to count and you have yourself an enjoyable, fast-paced read.
I read this pretty fast so it was filled with its fair share of drama. Though the storyline is trite, it still had good action and the character development was on point too. There were some editing issues but not enough to take away from the read itself. I wish the plot was a little more orginal but nonetheless, still a good read. I look forward to reading part two.

Sexin' and Flexin'!!
This drama filled page turner was hard to put down! I enjoyed every page and loved seeing the twins in my mind based on their descriptions! Love, lust, betrayal, revenge.....Double Dose has it all! There were a few typos along the way but the storyline held my interest to look past them. The cliffhanger ending left me speechless! I need to know what happens next? The break ups, the hookups, who's getting knocked up or knocked off!!!??? I look forward to reading the sequel!

Just got finished reading Double dose.My only issue And why i didn't give it 5 stars was because i was confused With the past & Present. It started out with the present Then goes back in the past I found it hard to follow didnt know if what i was reading was now or then.When i did figure it out the book was over. .It was a very Good read held my interest and the Storyline was Different.Some of the chracters could of been developed a lil better but hoping part 2 will clear That up.

This book is so off the chain. Started This book yesterday and finished it this afternoon at work. If is a hard book to put down, but it also hits go e how we as women let me dog is the way von was doing to coco. It is ok for .com to sleep around with all the women that he wants but then he gets mad when coco gives him a taste of his own medicicne. Nice is a hot mess ha e a good husband but going after von and sleeping with him while her husband was in a coma and von wrong for sleeping with his brothers wife. Brandy needs to stop going back to and crying over that broke ads rob. She should have left the first time he hit her, she knows the outcome of staying in a abusive relationship, she should have learned that from when her father killed her mother. Com is also abusing to the way he be hitting g on coco and coming her. It was a bell of a read on book two now.

Great read! This book took me on a wild ride. It wasn't predictable and that's what I liked best. I fished this book anticipating that Brandy will end up with Jay. She deserves it with all of the hell she went through with Robert. Nivea really messed up. If Jay finds about about her slip up with his brother, it's the end. I was so happy to finally see Brandy stand up and leave. Domestic violence is difficult to deal with and when you're put in that position you don't know if you'll ever be the same but she dealt with it and if book two spawns it will be a joy to see her live a happy strong life. I enjoyed this read so much!

The book Double Dose by Aleta L. Williams & Apryl Cox was a tangled web of infidelity. Von was a pure mess & his sister-in-law Nivea was the worse wife. I'm sure it's just a matter of time before she is busted. This was a good page turner with plenty of excitement. Looking forward to reading part 2
