Rate this book
Love is never simple, especially when loyalty and heartbreak are at war. Just when Taylen thinks she’s finally found a safe haven in Ace’s arms, his so-called baby mama, Kamry, makes a disruptive entrance. Her past wounds ripped wide open, Taylen feels that familiar sting of betrayal creeping in, forcing her to question whether she’s destined to be played again. Determined not to lose herself in another messy love, Taylen decides she’s done for good. But will her heart truly let go of a man like Ace?

Ace isn’t the type to give up easily. Known as one of the city’s richest and most ruthless dope boys, he’s used to handling any threat that stands in his way—especially when it comes to love. But with Kamry bringing new enemies into his world, Ace is forced to fight harder than ever. He made Taylen a promise, to be the man who’d shield her from hurt. Now, he’ll go to any lengths to prove it, but only if she’ll give him that one last chance to make things right.

And then there’s Chris, who’s struggling with a heartbreak of his own. After years with Autumn, he never thought she’d walk away so quickly. With her eyes now on a new love, Chris’s desperate pleas fall on deaf ears. Can he bring her back to what they once had, or has he lost his girl to a new contender?

Prepare yourself for a wild journey through passion, betrayal, and the raw realities of hood love. If you're drawn to stories of project chicks and dope boys, rich Alpha men, and unforgettable hood love stories, "It’s Always That One Project Chick 2" by Jenica Johnson will pull you in from page one.

Ace is a good man, but his controlling ways is suffocating at times. I can see me and him bumping heads. For some crazy reason, I love Shiesty. Autumn really messed up, and I didn't feel sorry for her at all. She didn't make Chris work hard at all. Hopefully, they get it together. Looking forward to seeing what happens to Kamry.

Oooh Whee

Ace and Taylen were doing good even with Kamry starting unnecessary drama after she had the baby and even before. Her and her mama were on ba bc she had to know that baby wasn’t Ace’s from the beginning. What do you do when you grow attached to someone and find out they are of no relation to you? You try to fall back but Taylen wasn’t letting that happen at all. I thought Bryson was on his ten but it turns it he was on bs and didn’t care to change his ways. His irresponsible behavior cost him & Taylen dearly and I hate that for Taylen. Chris was pissing me off the entire book like he got a whole wife and expects Autumn to play the role she been playing for years nah my boy. I loved how Zachery opened up to & for Autumn and they became close it was great to see bc he deserves happiness just as well as she does but when a hater don’t like the fact that the person they had their hooks in ain’t hooked no more that’s when problems arise. Keshawn was messy as hell but karma got her real quick and I ain’t even mad. Ace really is the man bc he keeps his wordand loves Taylen and the kids like no one else can. I suspected Keese was a plant from the rip and I’m glad I was right. This book had me all over the place and that cliffhanger, boo you definitely did that. If yall ain’t heard about Jenica Johnson what you waiting for

Satisfied Reader

I guess Kamry's time is finally up, and she's about to get some well-deserved karma. She must be a special type of evil to leave her newborn baby in the hospital while fighting for his life, and to laugh at another mother's loss is egregious. My heart broke for Taylen; her firstborn didn't deserve that outcome. Taylen is so strong, and I love how she loves baby AJ. I won't say Ace is wrong for how he now feels about AJ, but the baby is innocent regardless of who his parents are. I really like Zachary, and I hate how Autumn hurt him, but she didn't deserve what Chris did to her. I really think Ace needs to take a closer look at his mother before it's too late, or Kamry's mother.💝💝

Please just stop playing!!!!

I don’t know why Chris, Camry, Bryson all keep playing with Ace when I say it is going to be just my knowing part two. I’m glad Autumn is finally finding her way and getting away from being that side chick. She deserves so much more and I believe it’s coming her way but she been a mess it up. I love the way ace protects Taylen, but I can see how it could be perceived as being controlling. The Author did her thing in this one and is so much. Anyone that has experience what Taylor and Ace and the family is going to go through in this part two but I’m on my way to part three.

This book had a lot going on. I was a bit thrown off by the Dre situation. As protective as Tay is about the kids why would she let them go with Bryson when everyone is telling her he’s down bad on Percs? I’m loving getting to know more about Sheisty. I feel bad for him but I hope him and Autumn work it out. Kim seems like she’s getting what she deserves. Ace’s mama needs her a@@ beat.

Ms. JJ!

Jenica Johnson, you are an amazing writer! "It's Always That One Project Chick 2" continues Taylen and Ace's story and this story can't be touched! Part 2 really took you there with twists and shockers that knocked you off your feet! Ms. JJ, you did not have to go there! Please🙏 don't take too long for part 3!

Karma

All these dirty muthas getting their karma. Chris got his and hopefully Kamry about to get hers. I don’t like Ace’s momma. She is so bitter and trifling that her kids don’t even want to be bothered with her. I hope Shiesty and Autumn figure things out after the loss of their baby. Part 3 me soon.

OMG

This was so good. I always read the reviews first and I saw a few that said this wasn’t as good as the first😫 I disagree. I had a feeling about Chris🤧 The drama between him, Sheisty, and Autumn was off the chain. And I was in tears about the Dre situation. So good… now on to part 3!

Everyone is Dumb AF!

Man, I’m trying hard to finish this series. However, this book is close to going on my DNR list. Every last character in this book, contradicts their words with their actions. They all say one thing but do the total opposite. For them to be grown they’re childish as hell with no communication skills. I need at least one character to stand on business!

Unsure

It’s still a good read but it’s definitely not as good as the first book. I still enjoyed it and it definitely takes you on an emotional roller coaster.

Must Read!!!

The apple didn't fall far from the tree. Kamry had no idea the telling her mother who was behind her brother's murder was dumb. Her mother confronting Ace didn't go well. Kamry truly was a selfish ass trifling hoe. When she left her son in the Hospital after delivering him. I was digusted. Leaving Miami to go to Atlanta didn't go well for her either because she ended up sucking d**k and screwing different men for a few pennies out of a raggedy motel. I also think her meeting Keese isn't a coincidence. I have a feeling Keese knows Ace. Taylen got on my nerves a lil bit. Ace have done everything he could to prove to her that he wasn't anything like Bryson but her insecurities kept showing up. True enough Ace should've told her why he moved Kamry in. I kind of see why Ace thinks Taylen is trying to save Bryson. Taylen keep saying it's for their son's. However judging how Bryson has turned into a alcoholic and popping pills. He don't need to be anywhere around him and Taylen two son's. Something was bound to happen and it did. I know Taylen feels guilty about what happened to her young son Dre but it wasn't her fault. Bryson is to blame. I love the way Taylen chose to take in AJ after Kamry left him in the Hospital. At first Ace was in his feelings finding out AJ wasn't his son but learning who child it could be left Ace with ill feelings. I had a feeling Keshawn knew about Chris and Autumn. It took for Taylen to point it out before Autumn realized it was true. I'm glad to see Sheisty come out of his shell. He didn't talk much. Being around Ace had him speaking more. I was also happy that him and Autumn got together and she stopped allowing Chris to use her as his side chick. Chris jealousy towards Sheisty was shown from the moment Ace introduced them. However Sheisty dgaf. Chris had no clue how dangerous Sheisty but he was definitely going to find out. Chris and his wife Keshawn are both dumb. I laughed when Keshawn said Chris tell her everything because even knew that was a lie. Keshawn telling Ace about Chris and Kamry had Ace ready to kill Chris for being disloyal. Especially with her doing it at Taylen son Birthday party. I'm wondering who is behind trying to kill Taylen. I believe it's Autumn and Ace mother Jamie. She's a damn mess. Her dislike for Taylen is unwarranted. Jamie like Kamry because she's scandalous like her. I was glad when Taylen checked her ass. I also believe Taylen when she said Autumn and Ace mother had their father set up and killed.
