Ugh first of all I couldn't stand Jett sorry ass! Even with all Rae endured from Jett, it took her learning of his ultimate betrayal to finally let go. I loved Caesar! Regardless of Rae giving him the cold shoulder not once did he give up. Blue need to get her life right. Playing with the feelings of two men is never good. She should've been woman enough to talk to Deon, as well as, not leading Zac on! Now that ending really got me mad at Blue. Then there's Symba trifling behind. I so wasn't expecting that. How can you try to give your suppose to be best friend advice but doing the unthinkable? Canyon was just the challenge she needed. Can't wait for part 2 to see if Jett, Ace and Roman finally get what's due to them, if the friendship between the girls can be fixed, who was on the opposite end of the barrel, will Rae be dumb and go back, and can Caesar and Canyon bounce back to save their empire.

Great read

A great book,never a dull moment from start to finish.Caesar and Canyon are the mans to be.Raelyn needs a to leave jet cheating abusive ass alone.Symba is just a freak and disloyal.Blue is so stupid to take care of a grown man,but Zach seems more her speed.So much drama when Caesar and Raelyn connect,but that ending was not expected.

A very good read!

Raelyn was in a very controlled relationship with Jett, he was abusive as well! Meeting Ceasar she really found a good man but she doesn't know the life he's living until she actually got involved totally with him. Symba, wow! Blue is also playing a dangerous game as Deon is unstable. So far a great series, some grammatical errors but I am really enjoying it so far!

It’s one thing to tell a story and it’s another to just name drop all the expensive crap that you can. In this one you have Raelyn, the good girl who was accepted to a great college. Of course, she gets pregnant, drops out of high school to be with a jack boy who cheats, controls and beats on her. Then there’s Symba, she’s the freak of the trio, have sex with whoever and drinks away her problems. Finally you have the outspoken, in a relationship but cheating on her man with a rich guy who’s constantly getting handled by her man Blue.

All we really know is that Canyon and Caesar run a drug ring and have fallen for Symba and Raelyn. Only thing besides that is we get all the expensive clothes they wear, all the expensive things they drive, purchase and how expensive their homes are. Nothing about the relationships to have you connect with the characters. Just a bunch of name dropping and flashy cars. In all the story was boring because it really wasn’t a story about the couples, more about material items the guys brought to the table.

Who really wants a high school drop out who’s engaged to a jack boy that does all the things Jett does to her? Who really wants a girl who sleeps with her best friend’s man and everyone else for that matter? I just couldn’t see the connections for them to be so head over heels for these females. Even Blue’s situation was silly, why would he deal with her when she was so stuck on her ex and the ending makes it seem as though she’s pregnant by him? I hope the next one picks up because I don’t think I can stand another name drop or mention of how expensive a t-shirt is.

Dope story

I've found my new saga. Caesar and a Canyon are a hood girl's dream. Young Boss's ready to take on any obstacles but find the time to search for love. Not afraid of taking it head on. I can't wait to read the next book.

Thugs need love and hood chicks always keep a man. But when friends realize that love ain’t fair...all hell breaks loose. While there are a couple of editing issues, the storyline would s straight for urban lit. Besides it was a free read with kindle unlimited.

What the What!!

Jett is a hot mess. Symba was beyond wrong for doing Raelyn that way. Caesar and Canyon got caught slipping. Poor Blue, can’t wait to read book 2

"When a Rich Thug Wants You" by Pebbles Starr

My Thoughts....

This was another one of this author's good reads...a good urban fiction with a little bit of it all straight from the hood! From some intriguing well development of characters...from the three friends Raelyn, Blue & Symba, then there is Jett, Caesar, Canyon, Deon, Zac, Ace, Roman to a few others will keep this storyline popping from one drama to the next crazy twist and turns and suspense to the very end. And in the end...well we will be given a cliffhanger...only leaving the reader wanting more from this authors next series....oh there will be a total of five in this series. So, what will happen next?

Very nice!!! cant wait to read part 2~ Raelyn and Caesar. Liked the development of their relationship, it wasnt rushed or anything, they didnt just fall into a relationship, they actually took the time to get to know each other. I liked that Caesar wined and dined her, very romantic and very thoughtful. caesar's behavior towards her really forced her to consider her own 'relationship' with Jett.

Jett was just uggh. especially with Symba ugghh just cant.



As for Blue she was also trifling, she wanted to have her 'broke' cake and eat it too. Want to read part 2!!

I enjoyed reading this book it was a page turner from beginning to end!! I defiantly wasn't expecting the ending though...I hope part 2 will be out soon and very soon I'm anxious to the know the outcome of Realyn & Ceaser & Symba & Canyon the outcome of Blue & Zac & the outcome of the 3 girls friendship! To ms Pebbles Starr for this to be your first book I must say u did an outstanding job & I'm looking forward to be reading more from you!!!

Crazy read

This book was crazy. It has everything lying, cheating, and a back stabbing thot that calls herself a friend. Ratchetness at its finest. Can't stand a women beater and this book has one. To say he is an asssss would be an understatement. He is as ratchet as they come. Raelyn is young and a bit naive when it comes to him. It was good seeing her step out on a limb and try to find real happiness. Hopefully everything works it self out because I am so beyond ready for Jett and his whack behind crew to get what's coming to them.

Pebbles Starr brung it with this page turner ! I absolutely loved it & can't wait for part 2 ....I'm dying to find out what's going to happen to Rae, Caesar, Canyon, Symba, Blu & Zac ! I can't stand that lowlife Jett or Deion ! Blu did something that cost her friendship & I'm wondering if it would ever be repaired ! I'm also wondering what & how they got on Canyon to arrest him & will the same fate be for Caesar ...or will Jett be the cause of his demise ! Y'all gotta get this book & part 2 will be mandatory ! The drama is crazy interesting !

The book When A Rich Thug Wants You examined 3 friends & their abusive & unhealthy relationships. Raelyn, Blue & Cymba had history with trifling men. Even after meeting guys that treated them generously, & were considerate, they were slow to move. It was interesting that the young ladies although unhappy remained until their backs were against a wall. This was a very well written book & I am looking forward to reading part 2.
