With Yoshon finding out more about Golden’s past, he has a decision to make. Does he want to continue to learn more about her? Or does he end things because she broke his one rule - don’t lie to him? Except, Yoshon hasn’t been truthful when it comes to Golden either. Will their lies bring them closer together or pull them apart? All of Yolani’s secrets are spilling out the closet and she’s not done yet. When she finds out Big Ben is coming home, more skeletons are sure to come crawling out of her closet. With her and Hazel’s relationship up in the air, does she fight to get her woman and best friend back? Or does she continue to push the people who care the most about her, out of her life? With Yoshon in the dark about Yolani’s small habit, does Pit Pat blow the whistle on her? Or does Pit Pat push it under the rug? When Golden finds out Grand is moving to New York, she tries to flee. Will Yoshon protect her or feed her to the wolf she’s been running from?

😱😱😱😱😱

Yolani done lost her mind. Grand popping back up was unexpected, but Yoshon definitely gonna make sure Golden straight. I’m interested to see if Denim has a savage side🤔. I secretly think that Grape and Mo booing, but I could be wrong. Alicia is so damm naive. I’m curious to know why Hazels mom don’t care for her. Yolani is spiraling and with the revelation about Big Ben coming home, I wonder how that will play out....

Man, this was worst than book 1... Thought it would have been better!!!

This story is definitely lacking. I mean the author does have a nice writting style and with no grammatical error or typos in sight made a huge difference but the emotional side of the story was just lame and lacking.
Everything felt forced. Take Golden and Yoshon. I mean it's ok the aged gap and difference but somethings feels so not right with these two. I mean Golden hit right out of the ball park with her reasoning regarding baby girl, while Yoshon's explanation didn't make sense since he supposedly got over his ex yet he went ahead to do something like that and will be reminded for the rest of his life of his ex, because baby girl looks just like her??? Duh.... Meanwhile, this thiing with Grand is not gonna go away and suddenly, Golden is so in love she will move for a couple months to be with Yoshon??? Man, get out of here...
Now take Hazel/ Yolani/ Denim. This truly doesn't feel right at all. Is she a lesbian or what? One minute she loves girls and the next she is so in love with Denim that nothing will change that but she goes over and gives Yolani this big proclamation of still loving her and all. Wow.. Really, stuck on stupid...
This story could have been perfect, because not everyone can tackle such a sensitive subject as lgbq and still made it fun to read for all audiences, but the ball stops there. Yoshon is a 38 year old man who is acting like a 25 year old and Yolani is just too man for anyone even herself and yet she can't handle all of those life changes, so she turn to the white friend. Then you have the grandma with so much secrets that is revealed where it leaves no choice but for Yoshon to step up and assume the position, huh..shut your mouth!!! And last but not least, you have Grand showing his true colors but no one can stop him, man this is too much and not driven enough to be enjoyable.
I don't think I am going to continue but will check out other books from this author.

What an ending to this book?? Mo told Hazel not to go alone and look what happen i hope that her and they baby are okay, Yolani needs her ass kicked for real and to lay off those drugs. I’m happy that Yoshon and Golden made it work, even though Golden was ready to throw the towel in when Yoshon said he was having a baby but i love the way they love each other can’t wait for part 3.

The story is good...

This is a good plot. The grammatical errors and lack of proofreading make it impossible to rate the book more than 3 🌟. I will repeat this until the cows come home: Jahquel J. is an extremely talented storyteller. Her creativity is great to experience. However, some of the errors were too egregious to overlook.

Now... Hazel made me mad and sad. Thank goodness Golden got her mind right. Gyan fills my heart right on up! His man to man talk with Yoshon was ao endearing. Pit Pat is the real MVP. Yolani... a devil, period. Alicia is gonna learn the hard way, I'm sure. Yoshon and Yaya 🥰🥰 a good read for real.

Yolani being the Brownsville Bully is my 13th reason. Anyone care to explain to me WHY the cover is a male? (As for the old cover- a male and a seemingly hetero woman?)
I’m genuinely confused and a tad bit pissed if I’m being honest.

Mind you everyone this has two ongoing storylines and the main one, or certainly the most interesting, is a stud woman and her childhood lover turned wife.

Loved it! Again! A must read series!

Yet another enjoyable read that I could not put down. I’m glad that Golden is finally happy...loved the relationship between Yoshon and herself. Just a match made in heaven...that is until the beast decides to show his head. So close and yet so far, poor Alicia..if she only knows. Yolani is just out of control .... something needs to be done. The end is not looking too bright for her. In this read I can’t help but to think Denim is too perfect....something is not right with him..guess we will know in book three. Fantastic job!

I don't understand how Yolani was mad at Hazel, when she was the one that f-ed everything up. Yolani wanted to have her cake, and eat it too. First, she wanted the streets, then she wanted to cheat, and finally put her hands on Hazel when she felt like it. Hazel had a man that adored her, that loved her in the way she needed to be loved, so what was a girl to do? I understood that it wasn't all on Lani, but most of it was.

Hazel deserved better than what Lani was giving her. Hazel was wrong for sleeping with both Denim and Lani at the same time, but when she loved Lani, she loved her, and it wasn't reciprocated, and that wasn't fair to Hazel. Denim was the best person for Hazel, and it didn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out. Lani had to get over the fact that she lost in her little game, and that she lost the best thing that ever happened to her. Lani needed help fast, before she hurt herself, or worse, hurt someone that didn't deserve it. I also hope that the baby is ok.

I absolutley loved the storyline of Golden and Yoshon..... they were relationship goals. The way that Yoshon loved Golden, was exactly how she deserved to be loved. The love was gentle, admirable, and it came at the perfect time. The relationship between Gyan and Yoshon was a very beautiful thing, and it gave me life. If anyone deserved love, it was both Golden and Yoshon. Now with Yoshon being the heir to be the head of the cartel, I wondered would his mentality change? Would his position, interfere with the love he had for Golden?

This second installment dives deeper into the emotional fallout of the first book, shifting the focus from survival to trust, truth, and consequences. The story leans heavily into relationship tension and character flaws, making it a dramatic and sometimes frustrating but very engaging read.

Golden and Yoshon’s relationship is tested as secrets and half-truths come to light. The love is present, but so is fear, fear of abandonment, betrayal, and the past repeating itself. Yoshon is forced to confront what he’s willing to forgive, while Golden struggles between staying and running when danger resurfaces.

Meanwhile, Yolani’s storyline adds another layer of emotional complexity. Her unresolved issues and poor decisions strain her relationship with Hazel, showing how avoidance and pride can damage even the strongest bonds. These parallel storylines reinforce the idea that love alone isn’t enough honesty and accountability matter just as much.

The return of threats from Golden’s past raises the stakes and reminds readers that escaping trauma isn’t always as confirming as starting over. Tension steadily builds, leading to a cliffhanger that makes it clear this story is far from over.

Overall, this installment is messy, emotional, and raw in the way urban romance often is. The characters are deeply flawed, the drama is intense, and the ending leaves you needing answers. Fans of the series will appreciate the depth and buildup, even when some character decisions are hard to watch.

lOVING some Pit Pat.... Everyone should have a grandmother like her... The bomb she just dropped on Yosh / Lani omg. As ususal Yolani looked at things all wrong, she just likes the coke and power. I would have turned all my back on her, as drugs are an issue, but her mentality is way Effed up. Gyan is a little charmer, and they way he spoke to Yoshan about his mommy about not hurting her, Golden has raised him correctly, as she worries about him and her safety. Yoshan, he is a great dude to the people around him, and he and Golden share something really really special, and their bond is good, eventhough he may have handled her reaction about thebaby wrong, she was able to make him understand, why she felt the way she did. Hazel... I hope she does not loose Denim's baby, but she was so blinded in trying to be in love with Yolani, she ignored all the signs that Yolani had issues, and she knew about yolani's hand problem. what happened to Cherry, and why has no one addressed her "accident" (GRAPE). Why are women so set on getting the bag, and how to be upgraded in some imaginary circle to impress others, that you are willing to settle on a man with a bunch a kids, believing everything he says about his past? Alicia is a pregnant dummy, Your lips got bitten with blood, but you are still there?? I really like this series, book one almost made me not want to read 2, but I am glad I did!!!! GREAT JOB, WAITING ON BOOK 3

Yolani 😱 NOOOOOOOO!!!!

Ok Yolani’s butt has completely lost her forever drug abused mind. Lani needs to seriously seek help because her secret is out and her family is not the ones thats going to deal with her addiction. I’m glad that Hazel went on about her business and had a prompt unexpected wedding to Denim and she got her baby. When Hazel went to Lani to clear the air and talk it out, Hazel saw that Lani came to the door higher than a kite, she should have followed her first mind and tried that conversation another day with another person going with her. I pray Hazel and the baby is ok.

Yoshon and Golden are the cutest couple. It seems like they are moving fast as a road runner with their relationship, him being a father figure to her son, and now he is a father to his first child. I was really surprised at my girl Golden for being accepting and standing by her man to care for his daughter. Now, let’s talk about Golden’s ex-husband Grand. Oh boy, if Grand only knew to just gone on ahead and tuck his tail between his leg and bow out gracefully, it would be in his best interest. Yoshon I know is going to get Grand all the way together when it comes down to him disrupting Golden and her son’s life. Yoshon and Golden is a match made in heaven and I pray that they make it and continue to thrive as a family.

Omg.... Wow... Wth....

I can't believe that Yolanie pushed Hazel down the stairs like that. She really like pried her hands from the banister then put her foot in her back n kicked her down the stairs wow. Then really like stepped over her to go back to sniffing coke like ain't nothing happened. She didn't even bother to check to see if she was okay. I knew Hazel should have bounced when Yolanie looked high when she came to the door smh. Denim is going to have a freaking fit whenever he finds out n no telling wat he might do either. I just hope that Hazel n the baby r okay. She should have took someone wit her at least. I'm so happy for Yoshan wit his new baby girl. I'm glad that things r going well for him n Golden. I'm glad that they were able to make up n stay together cuz I know that Grand is just waiting in the wings to just start some more trouble man. I want her to tell Yoshan about them phone calls he been making to her phone. I just pray that he doesn't catch her out n about n try to do something to her man. I'm damn happy that Hazel left Yolanie ass cuz she don't deserve her at all. Denim makes her so happy n caters to her as he should. Man this series is so damn good man. Great job! This was fire right here! Can't wait to read part 3! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Brownsville 2

Denim seems like he into them alternative relationships by the verbage his friend is using....."let her have a boyfriend".......he may be very controlling, but he lying bout something.

Hazel is someone that needs to learn what it truly means to be single and flourishing. She putting so much trust in Denim when there are to many red flags waving in her face.

Yolani gurl you not who you
playing to be. You saw your loved one be taken from you and now she running around like she has no feelings. This is always a recipe for alternative unhealthy vices....poor Cherry

Chile, Alicia gonna be in for it with the fool she think is a prince.

Yoshon and Golden dont have as much drama as the rest of these folks. He is learning that he is the head of his famiklly and must learn what it takes to lead it. Golden is dealing with the reemergence of someone from her past/present.

Lawd!!!!

Drama drama drama! Why are people so hard headed, why do they ignore the signs that are right in their face. Hate to say Hazel is dumb because I actually like Hazel but baby girl is naive, she's stuck in the past not realizing the Yolani she knew and loved is no more.
And poor Yolani I just feel so bad for her, probably the only person who does but i do. She dropped a major bomb that has me waiting poor part 3.
I love Yoshon and Golden and the way they love on one another, seems like their story took a back burner to Hazel and Yolani's a little. Like they became an after thought....at one point I think Golden had a POV that was only a page in a half.
Book reads well and the flow is very good just a lot of errors, which caused me to take off a star. Definitely would recommend, definitely waiting for part 3.

Sigh, I’m trying to like this series but…

Book two was slow, just like the first. Hazel continues to be all over the place being pregnant and then randomly marrying Denim. A new character, Alicia (Hazel’s cousin), is introduced, and she’s now dating Grant, Golden’s husband, which adds a layer that wasn’t really explored.

Despite these developments, not much actually happens in this book. Yoshan discovers that his family is involved in a cartel and is expecting a baby via surrogate, and Yolani is still using drugs. There isn’t much momentum, I’m literally only continuing to read to see what happens in book three. But honestly this series is definitely not one of my favorites. Overall, it lacked the excitement or depth to make it a strong sequel. And the cliff hanger at the end was predictable so it wasn’t surprising.

Decent Sequel

There is a lot to unpack. First Yolani’s dust bunny a** I really can’t stand her and the ending was predictable I knew that would happen. Hazel was too naive because what do you mean ole girl is harmless? And that she wouldn’t harm you as if SHE HAS NEVER ATTEMPTED TO HARM YOU? Like what. *rolleyes* I don’t think she and Denim should have rushed into marriage idk he seems too perfect.

No Yoshon he is a sweetheart and does show up for everyone. But I understood where Golden was coming from. You went and created a baby with your dead fiancée. That’s a lot and now the whole cartel situation. Granted she does have baggage to the crazy baby daddy of hers it’s just a lot.

Jahquel strikes again!!

After waiting so long for Amazon to finally release the book it was well worth the wait!!! Yoshan is bae 😍😍. The way he loves Golden, Gyan and Pit Pat is amazing and now Baby Yashleigh. I just love the dynamics of Golden & Yoshon and Gyan & Yoshon. Yolani is a piece of work but I have a feeling Big Ben is going to be the one to put her in her place. It’s time for her to face her demons and I feel that he will be the one to help her. Grand needs to be handled and Yoshon will do just that. I’m really hoping Denim is a good guy 🤔 and Hazel gets the happiness she deserves. Patiently waiting for 6/29!!

Jahquel is you don't stop playing right now we gonna have problems!!!!! Yolani azz is craaaazzy but why would Hazel go over there alone? She pointed a gun at you when she didn't know you were pregnant, why in the heck would you say all that and think you where going to walk outta there unharmed?! Smh.... I still love me some Yoshon and Golden and can't wait to read more about them. Grand is really unstable and I'm ready for him to get a bullet to the head ASAP! Question : What's going on with Denim? Something seems fishy.... I bet he's got secrets.
Hurry up and finish this, I can't keep waiting.
Great Job!

I don't even know what to say about the characters in this series, but the one thing I do know is that I'm ready to see how things end. There is just so much going on and I feel like everything is getting brushed off lightly and moved on to the next. However, if things go the way I think they will with Hazel after that cliffhanger ending, I'm going to need her to handle Lani some type of way because this is too much. Addict or not she needs to get hers because everyone is letting her get away with too much. The secrets and surprises keep popping out everywhere and I have a feeling it's not done yet. This was a good read but I'm ready for the end.

a great read

Hazel .. What is the matter with her? Why would she go to her ex home to try to gather her stuff knowing how yolini state of mind is at this point . Hazel completely inconsiderate of her newborn baby inside her stomach just to sacrifice someone else’s feelings about her on and took her for granted. Hazel and golden they aren’t thinking smartly at all they both are compromising their relationships. Now Hazel’s husband Denim is going to be pissed off. She might lose the baby because it her stupidity. Golden need to be honest with Yoshan About her ex been grand phone calls.. everything is coming so close everyone is in the circle and they don’t realize it.

Danggg!

I'm sick of Yolani! She only thinks about herself, I really hope Hazel doesn't lose the baby she deserves to be happy. Hazel should have not went over there by herself, and definitely should've told her about getting married nor the baby. I know the real side of Grand is going to come out and I hope he doesn't hurt Golden and there son and hopefully Alicia won't have to feel his wrath. I love the type of man Yashon is he and Golden deserve each other. Why I think Mo is dating Grape? Hmmm

OMG how could she do this to Hazel

Hazel and Yolani has broken up and she is married to Denim and expecting their first child. Please don't let her lose her baby after Yolania pushing her down the stairs. Yolania is spriling out of control and losing herself with her drug addiction. And it taking over life and she is emotionally damaged and very selfish. Golden and Yoshon are now parents to new baby and her son Guyan. So much darma and pain . Can't wait to read Married To Brownsville Bully 3 Love this series

To see what can happen when you don't face the demons inside. Hazel is a good woman but so mixed up. A heart wants what the heart wants no matter how or what the relationship does to you. Denim seems to be a good guy. Is his heart strong enough to uphold Hazel?
What is going on with Yolani? Golden and Yoshon are gonna be in for a new ride. Yolani fights with herself over the secrets she has hidden. This ride is hard, focused and hopeful. Once, these folk get everything out in the open healing will begin🤗🤗🤗🤗

WHO GOT THAT GOOD, GOOD!

Wowwwww Fear is Grand, Golden’s husband (should be her ex)! Terrified her and son Guyan look like they just saw a ghost but it was the devil. Yoshan and Grape get those thangs ready and GMA PitPat are trying to understand what is going on? Meanwhile Hazel found out Yolani has a secret that is going to get her killed. As the crew fly out to Vegas, Yoshan lets the family know about baby Yashleigh and he confronts Yolani. Hazel finds out she is not married to getting married! Part 3 has to be super crazy!!!!!

Part 2
Hazel needs to read the red flags, first with Yolani and now I’m side eyeing Denim. What in the world was she gonna do? Hazel knew Yolani had a temper.

Golden, poor Golden. I’m glad she has support but she needs to lean on that support because Grand aka Fear, just arrived. Grand needed to meet his match.

Pit Pat is the grandmother I needed in my life. She is such a strong and wise woman.

Yoshon is a new book bae. Yoshon becoming a daddy is bittersweet. ❤️❤️

I feel so bad for Hazel she really fell for the they love me so they could never hurt me routine! Forgetting the number 1 rule hurt people hurt people! Outstanding job yet again
