Knocked Up By A Kingpin
Money and power were all things, Daytron "Deno" Dinkins had. What he didn't have was a family of his own. At the age of twenty-six, Deno yearns for a family after losing both parents in a plane crash.
Aminah Woods had a sassy mouth that got her in a lot of trouble on the streets of Baltimore. She spoke her mind and didn't care who feelings she hurt. At the age of twenty-two, the young heiress didn't care all about life, after the loss of her mother.
When a situation occurred, Deno was there to protect Aminah from any harm that was brought her way. Even giving her place to lay her head. Things didn’t come easy with the couple, and they found themselves arguing more and more.
When Aminah found out she was pregnant, she never knew drama would follow behind her where Deno was concern. Being the most powerful man in the streets of Baltimore, Deno has enemies that are out to get him. Would Aminah and Deno relationship survive the hurricane that brews right before their eyes or will Aminah found out how life turns out when she got knocked up by a kingpin?
*If you're not into violence or profanity this book is not for you. Strong profanity is in this book. Thank you, Nikqua*

Happy endings
Omg I loved this story. The relationship that Deno and Aminah has was perfect for them. They went through so much. I am a sucka for happy endings and I am glad everyone got what they deserved this was truly a 5 star read

Ok
This was a good read but I wish when authors write a book that they at least try to make the story believable. Like the books states it was about 3 weeks and Aminah went to the doctor and found out she was pregnant. Not long after she went to the club saw Deno spilled the beans about being pregnant and about a week after he was rubbing her baby bump, ahh a baby bump don't show so dam early, like dam do some research about topics if you don't know, sheesh. Other than that the book was ok, I'm happy there's not a book 2 thou.

Yes this was a great read
This was a great read and it kept me interested from beginning to end. Deno is that BAE. He did not play and was real with his sh**t. I like how he handled Aminah and her mouth. They leveled each other out. I'm glad he wanted a strong queen beside him. I like how he stepped straight back in when hi found out that Aminah was pregnant. He wanted a girlfriend and not just a baby mama.

Great Read
This was a really good read. Enjoyed the storyline and these characters and I couldn't put it down. I flowed really well at a fast yet steady pace. Held my attention from beginning to end. Loved Aminah and Demo relationship with their crazy behinds. Sparks between them flamed from the moment they meet, they were made for each other. Beautiful love story. Highly recommend this great standalone. Good job Nikqua.

Nice story
I liked how this story just flowed without any hiccups. I liked how she was his beauty to his beast and it wasn't all of this back and forth with the cheating. Who knew one person could be so jealous over nothing. This was an enjoyable read and I'm more than sure you won't be disappointed.

Love in the air
Love this story. Love the closeness of the characters and through everything they were still there for each other at the end. The friendships were real. The love they had was real. This was just one of those romance stories that make you believe in love. For all the fighting they still found love. This is a must read. Great job

Great read.
Okay, so I’m a fan of Nikqua and I enjoyed this book the only complaint I have is I feel like the characters falling for each other was a little rushed and the story wasn’t as developed as her usual books. However it was fast paced and didn’t drag, which I liked. But it was still a great read. Deno and Aminah were hilarious and crazy and I enjoyed reading.

I enjoyed reading about how Aminah and Deno became one. They had me in stitches with their antics because both of them were feisty, hard headed, and stubborn. Through it all, they made it.

I liked the relationship between Deno and Aminah. Also I think all the friends had good genuine friendships even when they had their disagreements. This book held my attention with the action and the love as well as the laughter.

5 Star Read
I really enjoyed this book. He tried to keep her safe and ended up being I love. I loves the chemaitry between Aminah and Deno. Glad Deno got a 2nd chance to get it right. I read this book at an even, not too many plots and twist. Just the right about drama.

I loved how Deno just held Aminah hostage in his condo after he saved her in the alley. I also loved how Aminah protected him & made everyone leave when they started talking negatively after Deno got shot.

Fast pace love story.
Although the book went pretty fast I enjoyed the book. All of the characters had to find a balance and I’m glad that they was able to find it. Good story line just wished it would have been brought out more.

This is the first book that I read of tours and I am glad that I did. You are a natural. All I could think about was how we as women can be so hard as rocj and the right man comes along and turns us into cotton candy. I enjoyed Aminah and Deno story.

Great book with a great ending. Amiyah was getting on every nerve in my body, I’m so glad she finally got it together. Deno was my favorite character, straight no chaser.

Not your typical story
I loved this book for the simple fact that it had all the twists and turns of a rollercoaster. Just when you thought what was coming up, something totally different hits you. I loved it tremendously

Shortly and Deno hilarious couple. They just don't know what to do with themselves. It was touch and go. There was some spots I skipped over, because I didn't think it was relative to the story. But all in all a good read.

Awesomeness....
I loved this story.... From the beginning to the end, a true hood love story. I have never read anything from this author before. However, as much as I enjoyed this book I'm definitely looking forward to his next.
