To know me is to love me. My identity begins with my name but makes a statement with my pen. I'm a mother of two and a wife of one. My love for writing began at the age of two. That's right I first wrote my name at the age of two and I've been writing ever since. Growing up I always felt invisible. I suffered from that 'Middle Child Syndrome', so when my voice wasn't heard, I made my own story.
My journal and my pen became my companion. I would write stories where my characters looked like me (thick, tall, and pretty), they loved to read, was educated, and realistic. The older I got the more my imagination grew, which caused my stories to be more diverse.
Becoming an author came about in an unintentional way. I've been through many things in my adult life. My husband, who's my backbone, has always admired my strength. We suffered a devastating loss, our daughter. My husband urged me to tell my story, to be a light for someone else. I took him up on his advice and wrote my pains and truths.
I love weaving stories, touching readers with relatable characters and situations. I give life lessons, unconditional love, dedication, a little crazy, and a whole lot of truth. I have a saying that I live by; 'I don't just write books;I tell stories'.

Excellent writing

This was so good.. I laughed so hard at Hood. He is rude and crazy but definitely can be bae. Him and Stoney are perfect for each other. I knew he was going to do something to them birth control pills. Buck don't tske no mess either. I'm glad he came clean to Brye about his past. And she was still able to accept him. They make a good couple also. Now that ending got me thinking hard like who is that at the door.. Probably that nut Chrissy. Can't wait for part two..

I enjoyed this from start to finish. I loved they Hood treats Stoney, even though he rude af he's very loving, protective and always compliments her. Buck & Brye were adorable, Buck was romantic but he's that silent crazy you have to watch out for because he's all action. Ready for pt2. Great job.

Humm, a little bit too slow but ended up fast and good...

This was a little bit too slow starting but ended up being good at the end; fast and energetic...
Stoney, a plus size thickums strong intelligent black woman was truly a fresh of breath air. So different and so down to earth, she truly was a good people albeit too confrontanal, too gun-ho, but hey it was entertaining in every form.
Havoc "hood" man, he is bae and bae all the way, 365 days of the year and he is not apologizing for nothing. Alpha, thug, gangster and just strong and handsome plus very well endowed, the epitome of any man you want to stand by you, to protect you and to love you... I need me some hood...
Brye, well I though she was going to be my fav, but still came second to Stoney. Something is just too simple, too boring with her and just to blah. She is though the best BFF anyone can and should have with a good woman aura.
Zesus "buck" we'll definitely the beta to hood's alpha and this dynamic is the bomb. A slight frown is what happened to him where I just hope he was truly not that gullible, stupid or that naive to have let someone do that to him like that, Humm, not what a man needed to be in.
Any who, this story was good because it's nice to read about plus sized women and see from their point of view how life is for them and how they take care of themselves. The only problem that I have is how I don't see them every fear for their health and all because all they talk about is food, eating and all. I hope one of these stories will actually show how w ll they take care of the,selves and for us to see the prosperity going along.

The start

I loved them for real. Stoney and Brye's relationship is so freaking cute. They are different bit the same and get along so well because it's a no judgement zone. Things that need to be said are said but not in a harsh or uncaring way. Now Sammy really got her issue but it's only woth herself. Hood and Buck are crazy for real. I can see why they are friends because they are so much alike. They whoop ass for real it's just Buck ask no questions and Hood let you know why he knocking you out. Both Hood and Stoney are so funny because they both be ready to knock heads off about each other. Brye and Buck just fit for real. They got crazy exes but that is not stopping their relationship. Definitely have to see about part 2!!

That main thang!

Stoney and Bryce just want some real men and when they meet Havoc and Buck...everything is real! These brothers do not take no mess and will not tolerate the disrespect. Bryce was with Doug and he dogged her and treated her bad but the ultimate is when her new man Buck has to put Doug in his place. Stoney is all e woman Havoc aka Hood an his son Haus needs and he will prove it every day for this rest of his life. Stoney’s boogie sister is something else. When Hood wants a baby will Stoney. Imply? Doug attacked Bryce, will he make it out alive? These ladies are living their best lives but when the party for Buck an unexpected visitor may stop it all!!!! Part 2

Another 5 ***** read. Kendra has yet to disappoint.
Loved how Buck and Brye worked out their differences. That Ex-wife was loony for real. What she did will affect Buck for the rest of his life.
Stoney and Hood were made for each other. Hood took control from Day 1 and didn’t let up.
Samantha was living a fake miserable life, so materialistic but was living a lie.
When Hood read her from top to bottom, it was too funny.
No explanation for Doug, he persistently was putting himself in situations where he had no WINS.
The scene with Hood explaining to Hauss about women was everything
Can’t wait for Part 2….. Who is at the door Doug or Chrissy??

Great work.. Im on to part 2

Omg Hood is something else honey!!! A street nigga is not up for debate honey. Im happy he messed Jaxson he to disrespectful. Then to talk to her parents they way they dis is crazy. Sammy is a pitiful, dick whipped, nose in the air, bougie bitch that needs to get her nose out the clouds! She needs to realize that tge marriage she got is not love. Sammy needs to leave them babies alone they're just kids. If she keep treating them like that they gone grow up to hate her. Doug is a whole h** for hurting Bryee. Why are some people so trifling? Im glade Sammy pregnant.I wonder who at the door?

Yassssss

I love Stoney and Byre friendship. Hood and Zeus omg. Hood is just everything. He blunt, rude, arrogant and cocky. I love it. My heart broke for Zeus and what he was going through. The way she did him is messed up on 95 levels. Sammy Sammy Sammy. Poor tink tink. She needs a reality check and Hood gave it to her. Now Hood baby Mama thotisha I don’t like her. Stoney didn’t play any games and thotisha doesn’t stand a chance. Great read can’t wait for part two.

So what's the date on the sequel?

I'm so in love with Kendra's style of writing that it's never a miss for me. And then she's quick with her pen so she never leaves me for long. Now on to Stoney, the latest in her lineup of fabulously strong female lead characters. I loved how she only allows Good to get away with what can take and then it's like no sir sit down with that foolishness. I can't wait to see when her sister has to reach out.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Baby this was my first read by this author but it will not be my last. Stoney and Hood are my type of people. When I tell you that Hood is bae. I love a man who stands up for what he believes in and his woman. Now that is my kind of man. I can’t wait for part 2. One of the best books I have read in a while.

Hmmmm

I enjoyed the book and I love the characters! Hood and Buck are two straight fools! I can't wait to see how the story develop in part two! I was wondering about the men past women! Doug got what he deserved! The ladies deserve to be happy and I'm glad they have two men that love them! Stony and Byre are awesome!

Oh oh, who’s that at the door !!!!!

I wonder if it’s Remy, she’s been way to quiet. Hood is just a nut but I love the way he caters to Thickums. Buck I’m glad he told Bre the truth his mother she’s some kind of special, why would you want your child around someone who brings them harm.....

Hood love

Stoney and Hood belong together because neither one of them know what to say out their mouth. Brye and Buck both had troubled relationships in the past so they are trying to rebuild their lives together. I am ready for part 2 to find out who was as the door and does it affect these couples.

Great read

First time reading this author and it was a good book and it kept me engaged throughout. Hood was crazy but so funny. He loved Stoney and they made a cute couple. Buck went through a lot and his mother was wrong for selling him out. I can't wait too see what happens next!
