Bow Tie Mafia
Being the victim of a home invasion was a horrifying experience to a 5-year-old girl. Jaya and her mother were home alone that night when two men in suits, bowties, and masks invaded their Atlanta residence. Neither her nor her mother knew what was happening except that they were tied up and duct-taped, and that the goons demanded money. All young Jaya understood was that she needed her father.Years later, the nightmare still haunted her and her father was never found. Jaya Woods had grown up and nearly finished college when the man of her dreams came into her life and destroyed her world. He told her everything she wanted to hear and showered her with gifts, while the entire time she was only being used as a pawn.By the time Jaya woke up to see the reality of things, it was far too late. Now facing years in federal prison, she meets up with yet another female with the same drive and anger, with the same vengeance to retaliate against any and everyone who has ever crossed her. The bow tie symbolized the cross, and the cross was simplified only with the pistol. Together, they will stop at nothing until they were both free and have paid back all debts to all wrongs performed against them.Together, they will ensure that Bow Tie Mafia always had a clip-on.Mafia...Life.

Bow Tie Mafia
Oh wow!!! Jaya seemed naive as hell! I could tell Santonio would be trouble from the beginning and he sure proved it. He should've told Jaya what it was exactly when she began helping him. I wasn't expecting Shannon at all. Joi sure is a live wire. Really Cleve?! Dude can lie and I'm mad he tried getting out of a situation he was very well a part of. How can one more time go all wrong? Damn Shannon was in her feelings and may have messed up in a major way. Jaya and Joi together is greatness in the making. I feel sorry for all those that played a part in trying to bring them down. I do have a few questions as far as part 2. Will Jaya tell Santonio about her conversation, will Santonio realize the role Shannon played, will Amanda be able to help Jaya with her situation, and what type of havoc will Jaya and Joi cause from New York to Atlanta if they become a team?!

Smh
She didn't know what she was getting herself into. Hopefully she comes out of this without being locked away for the rest of her life. There were a few errors here and there like spelling and names wrong, so I took a star for that. Along with the fact I don't feel like there was enough about Joi and Cleve.

That's messed up
I knew Santonio was up to no good when he took her to Miami. Jaya just fell face first for him. All Santonio cares about is himself and money. Shannon needs her ass whipped. Not only did she set Jaya up but she let her know she was with Santonio. If I was Jaya I would sing like a bird. Niggas ain't shit. Can't wait till I read part two.💗💗

Waiting for part 2
Ready to see what happens next for Jaya. Shannon's actions sadly but truthfully represent large number of females these days. What will will Santiago do when he find out of her treacherous deed?

Oh
This book was repetitive for the most part. It took forever to get somewhere then when it did it ended. How could everyone in the book be so careless. Now I'm no drug dealer but who traffics drugs through a damn airport. I don't get it. Then who the hell is Santonio we knew nothing about him. All we knew was that he was handsome,loved money, and had lots of sex. He started off not caring about Jaya then all of a sudden he was in love with her, and had broken up with his girlfriend for her. There was no explanation or anything. As far as Jaya goes can't nobody be as stupid as she is.. u already have money u r attending an exceptional school, that up never went to it just seemed as if she never went to the school for real the story just said she did...I'm over it I really don't wanna read part 2 because part one didn't make no since.

Santonio and Jaya
Cole has done it again, he has given us more than 5 stars. Santonio did not expect to fall for Jaya, she was just a pawn in his game of chess. Never underestimate the power of a woman..... I really enjoyed this book, if you have not read it, you need to 1-click ASAP. I love the storyline and the characters, now all I need to know is when is part 2 coming. Love the cliffhanger, makes you anxious for more. Thx Cole, #TBRS, #WHP, #SALUTE

Good For A Short Read
My experience with short reads is that they all seem to be rushed. This started out being the kind of book I hate, but the mastery of Cole Hart came through . He pulled it off. In spite of all the grammatical errors, it was an interesting read. I did not know it was a series book. Doggone I hate these books. Now I have to read part two. Why can't we just got a full novel or at least be told that it is a series?

Ok read
The storyline was typical and there were a lot editing issues which took away from the story. I don't like when I have to figure out what is being said. I will read part two though typical it wasn't a bad read.

Bow Tie Mafia
I thought the story, Bow Tie Mafia was a good read. Jaya's willingness to do anything for Santonio has left her in a mess. Looking forward to reading pt. 2.

Good Read
This was a pretty good read but not as good as The Throne. I think this series will get better. Love the characters looking forward to following them.

This was a good read. I was a little upset about the errors tho. All in all it held my attention from beginning to end.

Ok, I gotta be honest. This started off to slow for my taste. The book jumps all over the place. The layout want great either. However, I did like the plot. Hopefully part 2 will be better.
