Gangsta Lovin': An Epic Love Story
Courtney Alexandria Smith was born into a very prestigious and religious family. She’s been pressured to measure up to those same standards. She’s lived her whole life solely for God and her parents. Courtney soon becomes bored with that life and is ready for a change.
One night while out with her girls, she meets Raphael "Ray Ray" Davis. At first she’s apprehensive about getting involved with him because of his lifestyle, but decides to give him a chance only to experience the speed and spice she’s been craving, inevitably falling in love.
Raphael Davis, co-leader of the Southeast Mafia Crew, has been a member of the gang since he was 11 years old. As he approaches 27, there are a few things Raphael wants out of life—to settle down with the right woman, fall in love and have a family; and to live a life free of murders, police and rival gangs trying to take him out. He's been battling with the decision of getting out of the gang for almost two years, but never put his plan into action. That is until he meets and instantly falls in love with Courtney Smith, the very woman he’s always dreamed of.
Courtney and Raphael build their bond strictly on love—not his street credentials or her family’s wealth. The only dilemma surrounding them. . . can a well-educated Christian attorney spend her life enjoying love and affection from a gang-banger like Raphael when she knows her family, especially her father, will never accept their relationship?
Courtney has to make a choice between living her life making her family happy or living her life for herself with the man who makes her happy by showering her with all his Gangsta Lovin’.

Shaky but good for first one. Not too believable but it's fiction so okay. Ton of drama which I love but I'd really liked for it to be cleaner and smoother. It was more rough and shaky because of the way it was told. Not bad.

Good book
It's a good book. A Christian's thug redemption. By the title I thought it was going to be a little different. But it was really different then what I thought.
