Santana 2: Rise of a New Empire
Reina and Gianni were in a bad accident that left her in a coma. When she wakes up, he was right by her side. However, Reina continued being the petty person she was beforehand and drives him away.
Trying to mend her friendship with Megan didn’t work either. Instead of moving forward and accepting the loss, she does something that will make her regret opening her mouth.
Megan still had no words for Reina and considered their friendship officially over. She had no bad feelings toward her, unfortunately, Megan’s ex couldn’t move on and decided to send people after her. With her and Tae not speaking, Israel’s family show up to intimidate her, as well as offer a gift from Israel; one that may be deadly. Will Tae get to her in time or will it be too late?
Nala couldn’t catch a break when it came to her family or job. She had to move into a motel, as well as get another job. With everything crumbling around her, all she could do was hope and pray something good would come out of her pain.
Tana was taking his father’s place as the head of the Morelli Cartel and he couldn’t be happier. Everything was falling into place but his love life. His mother insisted on finding someone and when he does, their relationship will not only be threatened but tested. The person responsible for almost taking his mother and sister’s life will show his face and cause chaos amongst the organization. Tana will be forced to make a decision on saving his family and organization, or the woman he falls for.
Take another ride with the descendants of the Morelli Cartel and find out if they can find Javier and get rid of him for good.

Must Read
All these bitter and miserable exes popping up and starting s**t. Megan should've told Tae the truth about Israel. They weren't together when she was dealing with Israel and it wasn't anything for her to hide and lie about, but it definitely had Tae questioning was that his baby since Israel told that him and Megan slept together. Now with Tae whooping Israel ass and him going to jail for trying to kidnapped Megan. Israel family is after Megan for revenge. You would think Raina is Mina daughter instead of her Aunt Raina act just like Mina. Messy, disrespectful, and childish. I don't see how Gianni deal with her. I would've thought after being shot and almost dying. Raina would've changed her ways but she didn't. I don't blame Megan for checking Raina ass the way she did. Megan apology wasn't genuine. It was fake as hell. The way Kioni went off on Mina and Raina was very necessary. Raina keep saying that her mother show favoritism between her and Santana when it's not true. I'm glad Kioni knocked the hell out of Raina for her disrespect. Whether Santana mean ass want to admit it or not. He likes Nala. I'm glad he have her back when it comes to her trifling ass mother and sister. It's clear as day that Janice is jealous of Nala because of al bs she doing to hurt her. Their mother condoning Janice bs is disgusting. I can't wait until karma catch up to them. Janice scandalous as hell for lying on Nala and getting her kicked out of her place and for going to Nala job acting a damn fool. As much as Nala has whooped her ass. Janice still trying to do everything to harm her. Santana better watch his ex Daisy and his ex best friend Brian. He don't have a clue that when him and Daisy was together. Her hoe ass was plotting with Brian and was stealing from him. Santana is still on the hunt for Javiar and I can't wait until they catch him. Javiar is on a suicide mission messing with Santana. To be brutally honest. Javiar is a weak piece of s**t. He shot his own father, Javiar left Keith after Baron whooped Keith ass for trying to protect Javiar. Santana expected Javiar to show up at the party for him. However I don't think any of the Morelli family was prepared for what happened. Megan was snatched up. It seems Raina was hurt. Finding out Nala ex is Javiar was a shocker because he was known as Pinky. However I know Nala was hurt learning at one point. Santana was screwing her sister. Santana should've been honest and told her. Especially after learning everything Janice had done to Nala. Javiar made sure he let the cat out of the bag, stabbed Nala and ran her over. I hope she makes it.

🔥🔥🔥🔥
OMG part two was just as 🔥 as book one. My heart went out to Nala it seems as if every time things start to go right for her someone's out go cause harm. If I he not her sister who wanted her life then it was someone from the man she was dealing with who happens to be the best friend that betrayed Tana.
Poor Megan just when she started to feel happy things happen, glad she finally stood up to her so called best friend Raina who is selfish and delusional, foe her to treat Megan the way she has all these years especially after everything Megan has done for her, something needs to happen to her because she's the type of female that would do whatever to get her way happy her mother slapped her she needed that.
Can't wait for book 3 because Megan and Nana has to be ok I can see a genuine friendship for them

Whoa!!
Reina mama is right about her, she's childish, selfish, self-centered, messy, jealous and bitter. She went to Megan's hours to apologize and thought everything was going to be alright. Megan told her about herself. Reina just proved Megan right. She is messy because what she do go tell aunt Mina what she said. Her mama said that she is going to be by herself if doesn't change. See her and Gianni are new. Aunt Mina is jealous of Megan because Tae doesn't be dote on her like he does Megan. Lord why is Nala so gullible, and naive and don't have a back bone? She let her sister and her mammy walk all over her. Plus Nala wasn't texting Javier, that's all Janice. I thought Javier was dead already? Tana got to kill Javier. Tana is just in love but, he doesn't realize yet. With his rude azz.

Wow
You are so right, this is the cartel and anything can happen. How in the heck, was Javier Nala ex-boyfriend, now Tina you know you done messed me up with this one. I don’t understand why Janice don’t like her sister so much like leave Nala alone that girl don’t mess with no one and yall keep coming after her for no reason and lying about everything. I don’t like that. Reina is just as bad like you are in competition with your sibling for no reason as well. I hope everyone is okay. I like Megan so i hope she makes it, Tae is going to go crazy .

Great read but…
I'm tired of these cliffhangers. I knew something was up Nala’s boyfriend's name wasn't mentioned. Mina and Reina deserve that azz chewing. Megan needs to learn how to defend herself. One more thing please don't take months of Sundays to give the final installment.

This book was messy as hell and I love it I think everyone needs to take a step back it’s too much happening at one time. I think Reina needs to stay away from everybody and get herself together because she just doesn’t know what to say or do to stay in good graces with her family. And every single couple seems messy. I can’t wait to see what happens next.

Exceptionally well done!!!!
I absolutely love me some Santana Morelli!!!! I don't think he believed a word they said about Nala. If she checked the video, she would know he never had sex with her!!! Now I know they will all die, including her mama, Tana not having it!!! Waiting on part 3!!!

GOOD SERIES!!!
I’m still enjoying this series. It has been good from the beginning. I’m loving some of the characters and hating others. I wasn’t expecting that ending at all. I hope Janice gets exactly what she deserves. This is most definitely a must read. I can’t wait to read part 3.

Wonderful story! Bad editing.
Once again, the story is really good. Still, the editing needs improvement. That's why I only gave it four stars. The characters are well-written, as is the storyline. It's funny and dramatic; it has all the things except for the editing. On to book 3 of the series.
