Rate this book
“Lord, please protect my baby” Those were the final words that left Charlie’s mouth before she passed out after learning that someone had taken her most prized possession, which is her beautiful daughter, China. Living the life of a rapper’s wife, wasn’t easy. Someone was always lurking, wanting to take her place, her man, and now her child. Toya and Dre are one of Miami’s hottest couples, but does Toya have what it takes to keep a cocky man like Dre? Can she handle all of the issues that come with being Diandre’s number one? Or will she let outsiders drive her away and keep her from her happiness? The 305 Lovin’ crew is back, and this time with more drama than the first two installments. Filled with that southern love, drama, and secrets that pop out left and right. This book will keep you on the edge of your seat and have you craving for more of that 305 Lovin’.

Wow. I honestly can say that I anxiously anticipated pt. 3 to this book. I really enjoyed pt.1 and I liked part 2 but I'm not sure what happened with part 3. Let's begin at the beginning. The tone of the story has completely changed. When the females were originally introduced in this saga the one thing that endeared them to me was the sense of them knowing who they were as women and what they would and would not accept from their men. That seems to have been lost somewhere along the way. Part 2 ended with China being kidnapped and Charlie ending up in the hospital. We quickly see that we are not reading about mastermind criminals in Tracy and Chantel. Thankfully we are able to see this come to a positive conclusion. Then fast forward and we see Charlie in the hospital pregnant dealing with the guilt of not trusting her instincts. Now I know that Quan is this big time rapper, frayed around the edges, and still very much possesses a street mentality but for him to enter into his pregnant WIFE's hospital room and speak to her as if she was just some random woman on the street I took a huge issue with his demeanor. Long gone was the Quan that we had witnessed previously who treasured Charlie and respected pretty much the ground that she walked on. Even in anger and fright, I understand emotions were high but to threaten her and to tell her if something were to happen to their child he would never forgive her. Then to ultimately get China back and not call his again PREGNANT WIFE to allow her mind to be put at ease was completely out of character. Moving on to Toya and her debacle I just don't understand how she went from being so tough, self-assured, and full of self-confidence to this jealous rattled woman who thought that she needed to scream on every single female that looked at Dre wrong. Then to allow him to speak to her and "punish" her for being disloyal about something that clearly was well within her rights to do was just unfathomable to me. Lastly, his manner of allowing her out of the doghouse was absolutely despicable and completely did not track with the Toya that we'd been previously introduced to. I'm just not sure what went wrong with this installment the story just wasn't the same and it was almost as if I was reading about different characters with the same names. The lack of follow-thru on many situations where we were just left hanging with no clue as to what happened was simply not something that has happened in the previous books. The Chantel pregnancy was one example of this, the incident that occurred with Toya and James is another clear example of this. Ms. Johnson is a very good writer and although this story has several issues, I'm convinced that Ms. Johnson does possess the skill set to provide us with one heck of a comeback with the next installment.

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I'm really praying that everybody get back on track to loving one another again. I really hope Toya make the best decision for herself but not without talking it over with Dre. I really think that they need to come to a solid decision on this situation together. I really hope Quay and Monae get there shit together. I can't believe he's calling her immature when he clearly wasnt mature at all, because in my opinion he didn't man up to tell Quan that he was feeling his sister. I hope Quan and Charlie relationship grows stronger because this girl Shantell is ruthless in hurt
ing their relationship by any means necessary. I want them all happy in their journey of discovery of themselves as well as their significant others. On to the finale. Awesome Read thus far. ReneeG 👍

These Men Are Ugh

These leading men are selfish, controlling and just ugh. Dre getting mad about bc and forcing his fantasy on Toya was the worst for me. Jaquan finally stop cheating but all he do is lie and Charlie give in every time for sex. These women seem to be weak just because a man took their virginity and I don’t like that frfr can they get some type of get back cause they deserve it. I hate what happened to Toya though like wow that sucks but hopefully James gets his soon. I guess Quay good but it wasn’t much said about him and Monae so we’ll see

ok read

This was just ok to me. The men in this book were controlling and selfish. Take Dre for example, he goes out and cheats and not expects toya to get mad, but she sneaks and takes birth control pills and he gets pissed off and tell her they need to take a break. I hate how they b having women so weak n these books.

Wow

This keeps getting better and better. I hope it's Dre because if not he's going to be hurt again for the second time. This book here is crazy especially since Chantel is still roaming around as well as Tracy they need to get them and James he got something coming for his ass I can't wait.

Toya and Dre

Life is already hard but to not have either parents, I couldn’t imagine. So I sympathize with Toya and Dre too hard but he has a big heart. I’m confused at the choices Toya makes because she should know better however things get heated real fast. Charlie and Quan are a mess and I love them. This book is great can’t wait for more

Getting to the good parts

James is a dirty ninja. I want him to die slow and painful. His father is the reason for a lot of his behavior. I know this is about to get real real in these Miami streets.

Disappointed

Toya was a damn fool to allow some stuff like that to happen to get out of the doghouse with dre. What man requires that of their woman. She was stupid for doing it. It's one thing if she wanted to but to be made to do it is a whole other. I didn't like dress nor did I think he was a good dude. Toys lost herself in dre. That Ness with him being mad and breaking up with her because she was taking birth control was too much and she should have been done with him. It's her body and her right to take birth control. Who wants a baby after being with a man for only a month? He sounded stupid asking her something like that. He was not a good dude at all I don't care how much he supposedly loved toya. The women in this book were too over the top, too insecure for me. A lot of stuff was too far fetched. I actually didn't care for any of the characters in the book. No one was likable. Charlie irked me. None of these couples should have been together too much dirt had been done. They were always testing each other and each other's love. No one should have to go through any test to prove their love. Too many games . What happened to this tough toys in the beginning who didn't take any mess from a man? How u go from being this strong mind died strong willed woman to being weak and will do anything for the sake of a man. I was really turned off by the actions of dre with the masseuse. The fact she went through with something so degrading. It's like the author forgot about the type of characters she initially introduced in the book. Even with China being kidnapped was so far fetched. Quran this famous rapper, Charlie knowing they r not regular people would allow their daughter to stay the night with someone they don't know personally? That makes no sense, who even does that in real life. She saw red flags and didn't trust her instinct, too far fetched. Being that quan is this famous rapper r we really supposed to believe his daughter would be going to school with regular children? Usually rich people send their kids to school with other rich kids, not ones whose parents work at Wal-Mart. U think north west and blue ivy would be going to school with any of our children? Too far fetched and unbelievable. Toys gets raped by James and ends up pregnant, the issue I have is with the pregnancy. When u r raped they give u the plan b pill in the hospital to avoid an unwanted pregnancy by ur rapist. As an author u have to do your research when you put certain topics in your books. I know this is fiction and there are going to be some far fetched things but not to this extent. Especially when u change who the characters use to be. I don't know if I care to read a part f our. What is the author going to let Tonya keep her rapist baby? Hated the ending.

Good book

I chose this rating because it kept me interested throughout the story. I will say I hope this cliffhanger doesn't go on past 4 because you start losing people after so long because the next book takes too long to be published. Other than that this was a good book can't wait for the next one

305 lovin 3

This book was good. It did had some editing issue but overall it was good. I didn't see that James was going to do what he did and need to be dealt with. I can't wait for part 4 to see what happen next.
