Reviews

[Tia · Rating 4 out of 5]

I’m undecided between a 3.5 and 4 rating. It was a pretty solid action packed read. I liked seeing more of Sarge, Daeema showing her sensitive side with Tank and her mentoring and defending Mya. I had issues with some of the subplots. Murk and the rapper girl really didn’t go any where and were distracting to the storyline. I understand why they were put in the story, but they needed to be fleshed out or left out.

It’s late and I’m writing this as notes.

Great read!

I could not put this book down. A true page turner, for real. If you read this book you will not be disappointed.

The Queen is Here to Stay

Meesha Mink has once again graced the writing stage with another fashionable urban glance into the present day models of today's society. “All Hail the Queen” unveils the multiple hats worn by today's woman while cat-walking the stage with the modern day designs of life. In this sequel Naeema must once again allow Queen to emerge and help filter things as she dons the hats of real life urbanization.

Naeema first puts on her hat as a woman just shy of vulnerability exposing raw feelings of violation after someone breaks into her home. She now sports her fitted cap as she ventures out to find the offender. In the process, Naeema befriends Mya, a young girl heading down the same road as Naeema strolled as a promiscuous teen. Naeema nurtures, molds, and schools Mya on the do's and don'ts she wished she had listened to all while still working at the barbershop, reprimanding her old soldier roommate Sarge, sidelining her dealer, and love/hating her husband until the unthinkable happens. Naeema unleashes Queen, who straps on her hard hat and stands ready to take on or out anyone. Naeema Queen Cole won’t stop until she has her form of justice.
I give this book 5 stars. It was action packed and a great sequel.

I felt like this one was a little more all over the place conpared to the first one. Still a good read, but I wish it had been a little more cohesive.

Didn't even know this book was the book after Kiss the Ring! It was a good read also. Naeema aka Queen strikes again! This time to kill who tried to kill her husband Tank. Didn't see it coming on who did it but Queen figured it out. The way the book ends, it could be another one. Really enjoyed the story and the main characters.

A very quick read that's filled with action and suspense for the main characters, Naeema/Queen and her husband, Tank.

Booooooooorrrrrrriiiiiiinnnnnggg
I didnt care for it at all
Wasn't my cup of tea

[Rise · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is the first book I've read by this author and it was good, however Naeema's character was written as being too independent and not willing to ask for help. For her to go out on her own to find out who murdered her son was a risk that she too, but her relationship with Tank I felt was like she didn't need him for anything other than sex. It was okay to be the heroine in this story, but who doesn't need help with finding things out besides needing a copy of a police report. I'm looking forward to reading the next book to see what changes Naeema have made and if her and Tank's relationship still remains the same.
