Ready or Not

by D.A. Phillips

You can't choose who you fall in love with...All her life LaToya Morris wanted to get married, have lots of kids and take care of the household like her mother did. Raised in a Christian home in Texas she grew up in a different atmosphere, her father was a preacher and mother a high school teacher. When she moved to Charlotte, NC for college she never thought she'd fall in love with a hood nigga like Montrell Johnson. He was everything her parent's warned her against growing up: long dreads, tattoos all over his body, and a rising coke boy in the streets of Charlotte. Yet Montrell opened LaToya's eyes to a different way of life, despite his lifestyle and their differences, and families trying to tear them apart they never separated. Now, five years later they got married and are expecting their first child, everything is going great until Montrell gets arrested and LaToya is alone and pregnant, nothing could prepare LaToya for the ride she is about to endure, Montrell hates he's put her in this situation because the streets have no conscience or love, and hope she's ready.

Ready or Not

This was a very good story. The editing was atrocious. Yet the story was still good. The characters were more then a little out there and sometimes not believable. This only made the book more entertaining. I would definitely recommend this book. The best part, no sequels.

This book was so confusing. At some points the author just kept jumping around. just confusing. Could've been a really good story. Just wasn't put together well.

Stand by your Man

Toya was sheltered from Montrell life but she had to get with the program quick. Guys need to realize you can't play with someone's heart and don't expect payback.
