About the author
Jessica N. Watkins
96 books1,271 followersAuthor of Urban Chick Lit, Erotica, and Contemporary Urban Fiction... Jessica N. Watkins was born April 1st in Chicago, Illinois. She obtained a Bachelors of Arts with Focus in Psychology from DePaul University and Masters of Applied Professional Studies with focus in Business Administration from the like institution. Working in Hospital Administration for the majority of her career, Watkins has also been an author of fiction literature since the young age of nine. Eventually she used writing as an outlet during her freshmen year of high school as a single parent: “In the third grade I entered a short story contest with a fiction tale of an apple tree that refused to grow despite the efforts of the darling main character. My writing evolved from apple trees to my seventh and eighth grade classmates paying me to read novels I had written about kids our age living the lives our parents wouldn’t dare let us”. At the age of twenty-eight, Watkins’ chronicles have matured into steamy, humorous, and realistic tales of women's literature. She hopes that The Epitome of Femistry series will successfully emulate ideal femininity while tackling stereotypes, familiar heartache, and relatable distress in a humorous, sophisticated, and erotic fashion.

Amazingly well written!
I had NO faith in Reek getting it together. I was really thinking this was going to be a story about Ava having to do it alone in the beginning. He redeemed himself and did a full 180. Jessica was deep in her bag when she wrote this book. I laughed, i cried sad tears, i was surprised, i cried happy tears she is truly gifted with her pen. 5 ⭐️ story. Also the way she wove in the street kings just enough to intrigue the reader to check out her next series. Chefs kiss. Can’t wait to see what the street kings get into!

I really enjoyed Reek and Ava's story. This is another 5 star in the Cartier Cartel series for me. However, "Sincerely Yours" is still my fav. I was prepared to be irritated by Reek until the end, but he proved me wrong. Can't wait until the Street Kings saga releases. Jessica N. Watkins is a great author and never misses a beat, action and romance is top tier.

Reek
Well the Cartier Cartel series has come to an end, and I am so invested now. I can't wait for the Street Kings to begin because I know we will have more cartel shenanigans from the crew. Like Prodigy said, "old kings and new kings let's show them how we get down."
Reek and Ava went through a lot to get to their happy ending. Reek was scared because of the way he was abandoned by his mother and treated poorly by his grandparents. The trauma was real, and couldn't seem to get past it. Hearing words from Legend and Icon changed the game for him. Their points of view made him realize how he was living in fear. It made him realize he loved Ava and his baby boy.
Ava's trauma came from Mercer. His love was conditional. He took away her independence while making it look like she still had it. So Ava wanted to never lose control of her life. She wanted her own identity and never had to depend on anything or anyone but herself.
But through communication and compromise, Reek and Ava realized they were better together even though they were still scared. This was a great story of growth. I loved every minute.

Loved it!!!
I could not get enough of Ava and Reek!!! I loved how his hardnesss just melted when it came to her. No matter how hard he tried to fight to owned his heart. I also loved how she stood on business and would not allow us nonsensical behavior to dictate her movement! The growth and fierce love they have for each other make this a great read. Plus the spic and the drama made this one hard to put down! Can’t wait for the Street Kings series!!!

Never Miss
Love the Cartier Cartel downnnnnn. Reek was taking me through but he finally got it together and I was so proud of him 🥰 Ava knew she played her part in the toxicity as well it wasn’t all just him. She knew what she was getting into when she did what she did. Cant wait for the Street Kings.

Reeking Havoc: the Cartier cartel 6
I'm so glad Ava found herself back home in the arms of the one man she was in love with. Reek really came through and put his fears behind him and became the man he was meant to be. He had lots of help from friends and family and over came his fears. All the bad guys are gone for good.

Well, that was that!
The end. I got so caught up with the Cartier Cartel, I just knew I was going to join in the fight with The Crown. I feel like they ain't completely gone. But I'm looking forward to The Street Kings!

Ava!!!!
I did not like Ava. During Saint and Tempo's stories, she was not my favorite person. I absolutely love that these individual stories change my views of the characters we meet. I loved this story and the growth of both Reek and Ava. I can't wait to meet the Street Kings!

LOVED it. Great ending to a great series. I have to say the last 2 books were my favorite. I liked the drama of it all and how love still prevailed in the end. Great read. I am going to read more of the authors catalog

I do recommend!! This book from start to finish kept my attention. This whole series actually. I continue to read all of her books because it’s more than the regular urban fiction.

Never disappointed
There are always lessons in her writings. Reek and Ava make you believe in possibilities, individually and as couples. You're reminded th best family doesn't have to be blood related.

Come on Reek!!!
I didn't have faith in Reek for a minute. I was proud of Ava, she wasn't gonna play with him with her feelings. Good job!
