If I Was Your Woman: A BBW Camden Love Story
Twenty year old Shante hasn't had an easy life growing up with a drug addicted mother that belittled her into thinking that she'd never amount to anything in life. However, when Shante is reunited with her sisters, on top of finally meeting the perfect guy, Kasan, she starts to feel like everything is looking up for her. Will things stay that way or will lies, deceit, and secrets ruin her new found happiness?
Camille is Shante's best friend. She lives with an over protective mother and is in love with Mark, the love of her life. However, Mark just can't seem to get it right. Camille finds herself in a difficult situation. Will she forgive Mark and go against her mother's wishes or will she wash her hands of him and his shady ways?

Good Stuff
Okay this was fun from the beginning to the very end which leads to a cliffhanger,that you not going to mad about.The writer gives us a very like group of young people.The dialogue is good but could be just a little better.The character development is on point but I would love to see a little bit more about our two guys.This was all around just good ,you are going to be entertained from the first chapter to the last.There are some heavy subjects touched on and the writer hints and moves on not to make light but in good fashion as not to weight the story down.So looking forward to the next installment because there are questions too be answered.

Oh no she can't die
This book is filled with drama, lies deceit & jealousy. I was glad the truth came out bout Mark & Angel bc she really was on same shady shid as for Keisha i'm glad she was found out also. I had a feeling Carlos was Shante's father & now tht she's been shot they both r gonna b out for revenge & it's gonna b hell to pay. Now onto part 2 to c who did the shooting & y

Man...
As much as I enjoy the storyline, the writing is rushed and the editing is horrible. The author can’t even keep the timeline straight.

Great read
This was a great read. Shante is a BBW who had a really tough life. This book takes you on a journey into that life and all of her ups and downs. There is plenty of lies, deceit and secrets to go around. Then there is her best friend Camille, but that's a whole different story. Will they both have their happy ending with the men of their dreams, you have to read it to see. The ending is something that has me wanting to read part 2 asap.

Loved it
This book was beyond crazy. The drama and the plot was were on point. Loved the bond between Camille and Shante. Shante's mom was a hot mess. Can't believe she's had to go through so much. Hope that everything works or for her and that she makes it. Can't wait to start part 2.

Mz. Toni has outdone herself on this book. The storyline is amazing and the twist and turns keeps the reader is suspense. I can't wait for the next book.
