This book was really good. It was different style of writing for Mz lady put none the less it was still good. I so mad at Jay because of that ending he didn't even try figure out what happen. I hope in part 2 he listen to her and hear her out. I can't wait for part 3.

Wow!

Never expected that twist at the end! Jayceon is crazy and I can't believe he hit her and asked about his stuff instead of hugging her are trying to get her out of there. Glad that Sky and Tech are out about what has been going on with them. Rock and Tina are at it like teenagers, I love it.

I didn’t like the ending smh…jayceon knows better than to think Bella had any parts in what was going on. You put her life in danger with no protection to get your stuff and now you mad that someone kidnapped her & turned her out?? I’m mad but like the book junkie that I am I’m going to keep reading…on to part 2.

Love Was the Case That They Gave Me, was one of the best reads....this book definitely gave me life.
Jayceon was a thug that met a beautiful real estate agent, Bella. Bella was the complete opposite of Jayceon. She was spoiled, and she was very independent. She didn't have to depend on a man for anything, she had her own business, courteous of her parents, and she was hidden from the evils of the world, but she was naive when it came to the streets. She felt that Jayceon was her knight in shining armor.
Jayceon had an alter ego, Blakka, and he was a force to be reckon with. Blakka was a stone, cold-hearted killer, that robbed banks for a living. He wasn't a small town stick-up kid, but a professional robber, that made millions, that didn't care who he hurt along the way. Jayceon was a straight gentlemen, that loved him some Bella, and he didn't know if Bella was going to accept what he did for a living, or his thug side, Blakka. Jayceon did everything for Bella, and treated her like a precious jewel.
Everything that Bella thought that she knew, she was in for a rude awakening. The man that she fell in love with, was a perfect stranger. There was a turn in events, when one of the places that was robbed, Bella was there, not knowing, that the love of her life was behind the entire incident.
Through the change of events, there was more drama that woke Bella up from her naive state. She had been through everything that a woman could possibly go through. ..rape, kidnapped, pimped out, beaten, and everything in between. She loved Jayceon so much, that she lost herself along the way. The price of love is priceless!

Must Read

I recommend this book because it is so good and if you want a book filled with action, love, betrayal, sex, and drama this is it!!!. The characters are all well defined, flaws and all. This book will have you laughing, crying, angry, sad and in suspense!!! I love all the couple's, especially Tech and Sky, I wish them luck, Bella is one women but she need some balls to deal with Jayceon, who I HATE!!!!. This is worth all the emotions you will go through, all the people you will ignore, it will be worth it!!!..click it, you won't regret it.

OMG!!

OMG! Mz. Lady P did it again. This book is different from her other books, it started off kinda slow but once it picked up it was great. I absolutely love Bella & Jayceon together. Jayceon is so different from all her other male characters. This book had me in my feelings more than a few times, I can't wait to read part 2. There's no way Jayceon reacted the way he did w/o some type of explanation.

I like, I like!!

Of course Mz. Lady P pen game is on point as usual. The characters.... well let's just say this they will have you in your feelings, in a good way. Bella, seems like she can't catch a break to save her life, and Jayceon things look like they about to go from bad to worse. Only thing I didn't care for was the term "seed" the men constantly used to refer to their kids. Anxiously awaiting for part 2.

Love Was the Case That They Gave Me

Lots of love, twist and turns to the relationships that Jayceon/Blocko & Bella; Tina & Rocko; plus baby girl & Tyrin share. But what's up with the Russian mafia guy being in control of a scumbag like India? Perhaps it's karma for her and for Fatima...lol. Great storyline and characters in this novel. Cannot wait to read the follow-up to this Mz. Lady P and it gets 5***** from me!

Good read!

I tried my best not to read this book until part 2 came out. I can't say I was disappointed. Part 2 Bella better bring the heat and shake blokka's world up. I'm want her to come back with a vengeance.
