Rielle and Hussein: A Hustler's Fairytale

Rate this book
After spending three years in foster care, Rielle finally ages out of the system and is ready to find her way in the world. Her mother being sent to prison causes Rielle to start battling depression, but despite the dark hole that she tries to overcome daily, she begins her journey into adulthood with little obstacles. That is until a visit to her friend's apartment in the projects pushes Rielle into a darker place than she's ever been before. The support of a new person in her life is enough to keep her from going completely over the edge, but is it enough to keep her from completely self-destructing?

Hussein Jacobs wants the finer things in life, and he's willing to work for them. He knows how it feels to have nothing, but he doesn't want to risk his freedom to get what he wants. Completely satisfied with living a modest life and having a simple relationship, he's prepared to work hard at staying out of the streets until a long lost family member starts to entice him with an opportunity that not many would turn down.

Rielle's friend, Trisha, is the complete opposite of her. A wild child from the hood, like Rielle she came from foster care, and now that she's grown, she wants it all. The first thing on her list is the sexy, rich, Rico Carter. He is already spoken for, but that's not enough to deter Trisha. She wants her man and plans to get him at any cost, but once she finally does, she realizes that she bit off way more than she was prepared to chew. From a distance, the hustler lifestyle seems like a lavish one, but there is drama, lust, betrayal, and revenge at the center of it all.

Ready for the next!!

This was good and very interesting. I like Rielle and Hussein together because it seem as though they complete each other. I was really disappointed in Trisha because I feel as though she should believe she's worth more then being a side chick and Rielle being her friend tried to tell her but she wouldn't listen, now she's somewhat suffering the consequences. Rico should have just stayed faithful and he wouldn't be in this mess but I guess he's learning the hard way. This Meatcho cat is about to start so many problems just hope they catch it in time. Ready for part 2 great job Natisha Raynor

Okay read, I needed more about the characters to really connect with them. Trisha was fool but I really wanted her to suffer a little bit more seeing it’s what she asked for. I’m rooting for Claudia but not for her to be with Rico, he’s too fickle. The author comes off as young because the dollar amounts that’s bragged about are really low and the moves the guys are making don’t seem to be worth the little amounts they’re making. I’ll read the next one just to see if Trisha grows up or does something that has her being another Avi.

Good book

I love Hussein for Reille, he is there for her in every way. I hate that Reille was in the middle of Rico's mess with Claudia and Trisha. I can't wait for part 2, Meatcho is ready to avenge his sisters death and take over. I can see him causing all types of problems. I wonder if Claudia will end up pregnant too, lol, Rico has his hands full. Where has Hussein's mom been to just pop back up? Come on part 2.

A Five Star Read

This book was fiyah from the start. Hussein is a true boss and Rielle is so sweet. The characters are definitely interesting. The drama and betrayal was certainly unexpected. This book was unpredictable and this is how a good book should be. I recommend this five star read to anyone looking for a book that brings An Excellent storyline and characters. You did your thing Ms. Raynor and I look forward to part 2

Good read!

Although Rielle and Hussein was really young, they had both experienced hard lives growing up. I loved the relationship that they had, but am not sure that they’ll be able to remain together due to his lifestyle changes. Trisha, Claudia and Rico got on my nerves and I can’t wait to see how it all plays out.

You Did It Again

You are one of my Instaclick Authors so you could probably write nursery songs and I'd be here for the Lil bo peep movement. I am loving the build of this story. Can't wait for part 2.

This book is crazy... Rico has turned into a pill popper and has so much going on if he wouldn't have messed with Trisha his life wouldn't be spiraling out of control... Hussein is getting the big head but we will see what's next

Graet read!!

I swear Natisha always piss me off I dont know why she let that happen to Rielle man I cried nooooo. But I love her and Hussein relationship they really got mad love for each other but Hussein ex cheating on him made him a little cracy cracy he jealous and possessive. Now Rico done mess all rhe way up and he deserves everything he gets and Trisha should have listen to Rielle that man had a woman that was well off come on now she was young and dumb. I cant wait to see what happens next.
