by Nako

This is a re-release with a new ending! This book now includes IF WE RULED THE WORLD 1 & 2 When you have your eye on the prize, any little thing will try to come and knock you off your square. Mayor Antwon Young, former hot boy in the city of Atlanta, Georgia has his eyes on a bigger prize… becoming the President of the United States. Antwon has never let his past define his future or his goals, yet he will never forget where he has come from. Ella, a soft-spoken college student by day and exotic dancer by night captures Antwon’s attention, and he doesn’t know how to handle it. Antwon has always done things by the book, careful not to ruin his perfect image in the eyes of financial supporters who will one day fund his dreams of living in the White House. Ella comes in and allows his mind and heart to travel places it has never been before. Will Antwon let the pole distract him from politics? Or will he walk away from the only real thing he has ever known just to chase his dreams?

Confused

This book had me confused at some points. Cause Keisha would go from 3 kids to 2 kids back to 3 to four like huh. One kid was missing for like the whole year I’m like where is Kori every time the other kids around? And Keisha needed her ass handed to her twice. I love Antwon and Ella’s relationship. It surprised me that it took so long for them to find out that Ella was a stripper. She put up with a lot of bull shit from Antwon and the White House. There was a lot of misspelled words as well. But I overall love the book.

Ok read

This was an ok read. It could have been better, it was slow paced and sometimes boring. I however liked the way they were there for each other and never gave up. The love they had for each other was what made them a powerful couple.

[Chante Sands]

This was an ok read. I don't want to go to in depth and spoil the book for others but the story didn't flow as flawlessly as the other Nako books I've read in my opinion . It could be because this is an older book. But i reccomend you read and just for yourself.

Atlanta Mayor, Antwon Young has always had his eyes set on becoming the President of the United States, and is determined to get it. He graduated at the top of his class and focused on his goals, leaving little to no time for romance. Until, he walks into a local strip club and is intrigued by the mysterious woman, whom he comes to know as Ella. They bond over childhood trauma, as well as common goals.

But, life as they know it, begin to change, once the campaign starts and they are forced to deal with life changing issues. It all comes full circle when they become the First Family of the United States.

This story is unconventional, yet it provides hope to the reader. It encourages them to follow their dreams…no matter what. There were times when I had to remind myself that this is a fictional story with fictional characters. My favorite is Antwon, because he was a no nonsense individual who did not play about his family. My least favorite would have to be his assistant. I feel like she had a hidden agenda. This is one book that I will recommend over and over again.
There were a few minor errors that did not take away from the amazing story.

Very good

I was lucky enough to read this for the first time this weekend. It was a pleasure to read books 1 and 2 together. I loved that Antwon stayed true to his humble beginnings and I love the way he fell in love with Ella unexpectedly and unashamedly. They were so real together and didn’t hold back on their emotions with one another. I cried real tears as they reached new levels and made new accomplishments together. Great read!

Enlightening read

Way to go Nako, this book portrays that everyone has a dream that only they can make come true! The way you wrote the struggles of everyone’s lives to success was so intriguing. The love, sacrificial struggles the Young’s overcame was phenomenal. From the streets to the White House and unbreakable love, struggles and endurance; whew a great read and job 💪🏾💪🏾👍🏾👍🏾

[S. Reid]

Was completely taken off guard by the political storyline due to preparing for something I thought it was that turned out to be something I wasn't anticipating.
In a different political climate I might have been more intrigued by what this book offered, but after the last 6 months of dealing with a wannabe Dictator in the White House I have absolutely NO INTEREST OR ENERGY IN Political topics ! Reading FICTION is MY ESCAPE at least for the foreseeable future.

[Jessica Stines]

Amazing

Everything that Nako touches turns to gold. She is a phenomenal author and this book was exceptional. It was a very different type of book then the usual urban fiction. It was refreshing to read a different type of story. Thank you Nako. For all your hard work. May you continue to produce such beautiful masterpieces.

[Miriam Adams]

If We,Ruled the World

This book showed another side of this talented author. The topics covered included everything we face in 2018. The challenges the main characters faced were so relatable as reader you couldn't help but feel as though you lived it. Nako is definitely an author to follow.

Not what I expected...

This book had a lot going on. I was rocking with it at first when Ella was a law student, however I was disappointed with the falling in love with a stripper storyline as it has been overused. Antwon’s experience as the Mayor of Atlanta was entertaining. Yet, his rise to the US Presidency was somewhat unbelievable.

The power of #blacklove

I loved how author depicts the ambition of Ella and Antwon. I was so glad that she put a focus on mental illness where readers will understand that even with a mental illness there is no limit of what you can do in your life, as well as impacting others. Check out "the real "First Lady in this read!! Strongly suggested 😉

[Majesti]

Really good read!

I enjoyed the saga of Ella and Antwon as they navigated love, social issues, politics, parenthood and more. It was detailed and followed easily. The love scenes kept me engaged and although I'm not a very politic person I loved the depiction of intellectual black people standing firm together.

[Cyndi Williams]

Enjoyable

Politics. Not something you normally find as a plot line in urban fiction and I really enjoyed it.

I found the characters interesting and the story fast paced. A definite good read.

[Shanie B.]

Part 1 was good and interesting. The second half of the book was long, boring and repetitive. Too much back and forth and the same arguments with zero growth. Also, the grammatical and spelling errors were annoying, especially since it’s a re-release.

[Jacqueline Alexander]

Good Read

This was a good read but I have to give it a 3 because it was so many miss spelled word😞. I’m like this is the first for me I’ve read most of Nako books , so maybe some one new is doing her spell check 😬

[tayara tate]

Loved this book

I can't believe i waited all this time to read this series. It was great and I've read most of her books. So much truth went on in this story that i got emotional with the characters but it was well worth my tears and laughing.

[Tan H.]

Nako is def an author that I enjoy! It took me a minute to get through this book but I did enjoy the story. I loved the way Antwon loved Ella and remained true to himself. There were several misspelled words..letters being transposed.

[Demetrius]

⭐️⭐️⭐️

[Cola]

Whew

These few lil lines will do nothing to describe this book! I wish I could give it more. 👑👑👑Nako is the Beyonce of Urban Fiction. There isn't an author alive in the genre that can tell a story like Nako does. For those of you who will read this book do me a favor and read it without expectations. Its unlike anything you've ever read and I ensure you you're not going to be disappointed! The Romance between Ella and Antoine is simply beautiful. Kudos Queen 🍷to another #1

[Ashley Henderson]

Loveeee the Young's

This story is so slept on this is one of your best books hands down and it takes you away from the everyday hood drama and shows you the political side of things....Amazing job I hope other readers receive this

[Dionna Malone]

King and Queen

I could go on and on about Nako pen game but one word stands out "Profound "! She writes with so much knowledge and wisdom that I always learn something from her story plot! In this series I've learned never put the ones you love on the back burner when you're striving to reach your goals and sucess, their your biggest support!

[Shelima Theresa Maynard]

Loved it.

I enjoyed this book with the twist at the end. You showed real life things that can happen when you are responsible for a lot of people and their lives. Nano you are the best! Keep the books and good stories coming.

[Tasha]
