Rate this book
Born and raised in the crippling streets of St. Louis, Shanti has managed not to look like what she has been dragged through. She has been hit hard with life since she graced the world with her presence, making her more than meets the eye. At the tender age of eight, she loses her mother and goes to live with her uncle, Big Lu. From the streets to a lavish life of privilege, Shanti quickly grew accustomed to her drug dealer uncle’s way of life. His daughter, Orianna, was her closest confidant. They have a sisterly bond that keeps them close as they come of age together.

All grown up, the two are on their own, but still watched over with a close eye from the man who raised them. Orianna’s one night of irresponsibility comes back to haunt her, and now she must contemplate co-parenting with someone she barely knows.

Orianna’s would be child’s father, Cocky, sends his brother, Shotty, to watch over Orianna in his absence. Shanti takes one look at Shotty and decides he is the finest man she’s ever seen. Shotty was only supposed to stop by and drop off food, but that all went out the window when he lays eyes on Miss Shanti.

With new a love interest, there are always bumps and hurdles just waiting to tear love apart. Shotty has problems on the home front, which threatens what he is trying to build with Shanti. Cocky and Orianna overcome obstacle after obstacle to be together, but the secret that Cocky is holding on to may slit them apart for good. Orianna and Shanti find out fast how much love they really hold for two rich thugs.

Loved It

I loved everything about this book. It was so well written it closed perfectly and I could not put it down. Cocky is just that cocky. He loved Ori but HAD a crazy way of showing it but I love them together. I just think she needs to grow up a little of she is going to deal with a man like him. Now Shotty is Bae but he also has some growing to do him and Shanti can have something special but he got to stop hiding things. Hopefully everything is good with him. Shanti is going to need him to handle the things she is going thru. Overall this book was all that and I'm anxiously awaiting the next installment.

Another Banger🔥🔥

I just recently started reading Coco Shawnde books and I have yet to be disappointed. Shanti and Shotty were such a cute couple, I hope everything works out for them. Now Cocky and Ori had to be my favorite couple. Cocky didn’t play about Ori and school. Shotty baby mama is so out of line for the mess she trying to pull. I hope he wake up soon, I can’t wait to see how all this unfolds⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was so good from beginning to the very end. Loved the storyline and plot in this very well written book that flowed at such a steady pace. This book had it all lies, secrets, drama, action and the suspense. Fall in love with these characters and loved their development. I feel Shotty needs some growth and I can see it coming. Can't wait to see what happens next. Awesome job Coco Shawnde.

She got Love for A Rich Thug

The end was tragic. I need for someone to beat Reyna ass. I know her sneaky self had something to do with Ori being kidnapped. And Shanti had been through so much it's crazy. Her whole life been a lie.

This was definitely a 5 Star Book. There were many lessons learned in this book. It’s just gotten hotter. I’m not feeling Reyna. It’s something about her. Impatiently waiting for part 2

I thought that Shotty was different. I believe Rena had something to do with what's happen to Ori. How they know she was coming out of the Hospital. Shank don't play. She got some shocking news can't wait to see is Shotty alright in Partb2

Hmm

I already know Reyna had something today with Ori getting kidnapped. Shanti has to much on her mind right now ,Shotty need to wake up so he can be there for her. Cocky is going to lose his mind when he find out about Ori missing.
