Nassaya Edwards
When her best friend, Kimora Johnson, invites her on a trip to the Bahamas, Nassaya Edwards never imagined that the trip would shake up her entire world. She was only looking for a little sun, laughter, and a break from her usual routine. But what she got was….
LaMelo Lee - NBA player. Charmer. Trouble in a six-foot-seven frame.
LaMelo is used to getting what he wants—on and off the court. He’s no stranger to the spotlight, attention from women, or the perks that come with fame. But all of that became irrelevant when he encounters the quiet storm that is Nassaya Edwards. She didn’t chase him. She didn’t care about his status, his money, or his name, making her unforgettable.
LaMelo is everything Nassaya swore she’d avoid. Nassaya has him rethinking everything he thought he wanted. Their chemistry is undeniable. And temptation is at an all-time high. But then… one wild, drunken night changes everything. One decision. One moment. One betrayal. In Knock Up By A Billionaire Baller, love, lies, and loyalty collide under the Bahamian sun. Find out what happens when truth is reveal and the fallout that comes with it.

I stayed up at night reading this book into the early morning and omg!! 😭 this literally was a waste of time. I literally can’t, one I just want to point out the unnecessary filler words that dragged this book along to make it reach its word count.
And then you leave us with an ending like that. Which don’t make any logical sense like bffr.
Ughhhh if you read this, please spare yourself!!!
Until next time,
Thankyou 💋
I’m so mad I wasted the hours!!!

My hopes were high
Knocked Up By A Billionaire Baller follows a woman impregnated by a professional athlete. The story introduces protagonist Nas alongside key characters: her best friend Kimora, love interest LeMelo, his cousin Kendrick, and antagonist Ashton. This book, one of two in a duology, establishes the setting and central conflict.
Character development is very prevalent throughout. Every character is vividly described in each scene, though this descriptive style can feel heavy-handed. The extensive focus on clothing and appearance makes sections read like advertising. Despite the plot-driven title, the narrative is character-driven with multiple perspectives that shift between first and second person. While this dual perspective approach creates a conversational tone, it sometimes feels as though the reader is listening to a phone conversation rather than reading.
The book's greatest weakness is redundant narration. This repetition disrupts pacing, slows the story, and forces the author's intended meaning onto the reader, eliminating one of the best aspects of reading: drawing your own conclusions. I wanted to enjoy this book more because Malicia Bond clearly enjoyed creating these characters, but the execution fell short of its potential.

Definitely a must read. 💫💫💫💫💫
This book was so good Nas was a sweetheart just chilling enjoying herself. Ashton was a hater always messing with someone thinking she is God's gift but her attitude makes her really ugly. Melo was a handsome guy looking to have fun and not catch feelings unfortunately Nas has a hold of his heart unexpectedly. Kimora is the best friend of Nas and everyone is on a trip to celebrate her up coming vows. Things happen with Melo and Nas and Nas gets scared and runs away. Nas has a secret that no one knows but tragedy strikes and things get really bad of course the jealous devil Ashton is involved hurry up part 2 that ending was crazy. Job well done Malicia.

I don't like how Nas up an left like she did it was so childish on her part an look her one night stand turned into a night of making a baby. I cant wait for pt 2!

hmm
The pettiness and messiness from Ashton made me want to reach in the book and smack her. Jealous build a body under grown woman acting so childish!! Kendrick and Kimora love for one another is strong. Nas needed to let Melo know about her true feelings as well as about her being pregnant. Can’t wait to read about the drama that will be unfolding in part 2. Upset that it happened during the wedding

Please Nooo!!!!
Malicia please pull a miracle from somewhere!! Nas don't deserve that type of loss and heartache. I'm so sick of Ashton. It makes no sense how jealous hearted she is. Melo didn't want her whether he got with Nas or not. For her to be that miserable to meddle in people business is crazy. I don't blame Nas for wanting to put hands on her but I wish she would have just walked away. I hope the baby be okay.💕💕

Malicia Bond, boy you showed what a jealous person can do when. you allow someone else to get your story out before you. I love the loyalty that Kimora has for Nass. I do wish Nass would have been better at letting her feelings come out though.
Ashton is a pure example of what type of friend you never need. Although, I am sure we all have run into a few of them.
Melo is such a cool guy I need Nass back story on why she is as she is because she came across to ma as.a strong woman but she has a fear of something. I hope she recovers from this 🤗🤗🤗🤗

How you gon do us like that??
Need more info on what happened with Nas past and more about her relationship wit ole boy.
The way she jus ran off like a child was jus crazy,
she comes off as such strong women,need details on why shes soo scared of what others think and scared of her true feelings,she claims to knw her worth. Hiding a whole baby and stressing herself out for what? That is jus ridiculous!! I hope Melo dont flip out on her too much. Ashton is a real lost cause she has really no real reason to hate Nas, she jus needs to punch in her throat a few times bcuz shes miserable she wants everyone else to be too. When can we expect part 2?? Don't rush too much but just make come on quick.
Very good as

The drama of it all
The drama of it all. I love Nassaya and Kimora's sisterhood, and they had each other's backs. Jealousy is at an all time high when they're celebrating Kimora's impending wedding at the bridal party destination trip and her cousin's hatred and jealousy of Nas is very evident. But when interesting turns of events happen, it's Nas who is left reeling and her life takes an unexpected turn. But Kimora's cousin is one of those nagging gnats that won't go away, buzzing around and in everyone's business. But everything changes when one slip up is caught before all hell breaks loose. The ending is well over due but the cost might be too high. Can't wait to read what happens next.

DNF
Nas childish as hell and she annoying. This a grown woman with the mentality of a teenager. She as a grown woman made a grown woman decision and slept with a man she didnt know. But she’s crushing on him. Her solution after sleeping with him? Run away and avoid him in hopes of her getting over her crush. VERY CHILDISH mind set. “Oh no I slept with him, now I’m afraid to face him” FOH. No man would be interested in a woman with a mentality like that. She’s giving vibes like she’s slow and that’s what I feel like I’m reading about, a mentally challenged woman. She done mentioned twice she like him with a nonsense “but” behind it. I ain’t want to read it a third time.

It was ok, but
It was ok, but I would have liked it better if it would have been a story about Nassaya (Nas) and LeMelo and not everybody in her friends wedding party. The story is told in the point of view of Nas, LeMelo, Kimora (Nas’s best friend who’s getting married), and Ashton (Kimora’s female cousin who hates Nas). I was confused as to why the story kept switching from someone else’s point of view every chapter, that was annoying, especially when I was sold on a story about Nas and Lemelo! And honestly, this could have been one book, ain’t nobody got time for a part 2, just to get more of Ashton’s thirsty tail!

Lord
From the beginning I knew Nas had a good heart. Everyone around her knew it but of course that one jealous person ruined it all. I don’t see how anyone could deal with Ashton’s attitude! Definitely no one to talk about! I was so happy to see Kimora and Kendrick have their moment but I was even happier to see things unfold! I love how everybody was with it with trying to get Melo and Nas together! I can’t wait to see what happens and I hope their last moment turns into something so good and beautiful for them! I’m ready for the next book already!

Ok series
I hope Nassaya is doing well and that she and Melo can resolve their issues. Ashton got what she deserved, and I hope she faces the consequences of her actions. Kimora should have known that her cousin would bring drama, so it was a mistake to put her and her best friend together; it was bound to end badly. As for Ashton's mother, she isn't any better; the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Overall, it was a great book, and I'm eager to see what happens in part 2!

So good
I loved the book. Kimora and Kendrick’s weeding sounded like it was beautiful. I loved Nas and Melo’s chemistry. I hope he can forgive her not telling him. That hoe Ashton was a hater for real and I hope she gets what she deserves if Nas loses that baby. She hated that girl so bad over a 🥷 who wasn’t even checking for her at all. All the bridesmaids should jump her. Ready for part 2.

Page turner
Ashton and her mom was bitter and some haters. Ashton couldn’t even be happy for her cousin Kimora on her upcoming wedding. Ashton hated Nas and Kimora friendship but hated Nas more when Melo didn’t want her but spent time with Nas. Nas should have considered her baby instead of fighting Ashton in the bathroom because Ashton was already jealous Melo rejected her for Nas and Nas was carrying a piece of Melo.

Review
I really enjoyed reading this book. It showed that a jealous person (Ashton) has no boundaries. The things she did to try to get Melo were tasteless. I’m glad he let her know she wasn’t who he wanted. What she did at the end of the book to Nas had me ready to detach her head from her doctored up body.

Melo has the right to be mad....
However, Nas did just find out and she was going to tell him. If Ashton thought Melo didn't like her before he dang sure not about to like her if his baby dies. They let Ashton have too much freedom around someone she hates and I don't understand what the hate is about when you built your body like bob the builder.

awesome
I loved this book since the beginning. I’m still trying to figure out why Ashton doesn’t like Nas. She is a true hater for real. I love the relationship that Kimora and Kendrick have. They are so funny. Nas and Kimora’s friendship is wonderful they know exactly when something is off with the other.

Ok
This is a pretty ok read. It's just a little long-winded. Plus, I don't like it when characters' looks are compared to real people. Also, the characters' names threw me off a little.
Nassaya(Nas), Kimora, LeMelo, Ashton. All named after well known people. So even if they were described. I have a visual of the real people when I see the name🤷🏾♀️

I’m enjoying this but…
The story is developing and really well might O add, my only gripe is that the side characters are getting too much read time. I hope more focus is on out MMC and FMC moving into book 2. With that being said the cousin on my last damn nerve! And I pray Melo is chill in book 2 ready to jump right end now that he knows the truth.
