Rate this book
Osari “O” Dixon and Kalani “Kid” Dixon are living proof that being brought into the world with mothers that held a strong addiction to crack, could still live lavishly. Even though the sisters didn’t share the same mother that didn’t come between the strong bond they formed. Together they’ve reached every milestone in life enduring every obstacle thrown their way. When tragedy strikes in more ways than one they find themselves caregivers to their two younger siblings while trying to take on life’s challenges.

Osari is a strong, beautiful woman with the worse case of luck when it comes to finding the right man. All she ever wanted was a boss that she could evolve with only to end up with scrubs. Swearing men off O focuses on working towards her and her sister’s dream goal of owning a storefront to their online boutique while caring for her little brother and sister.

Kalani has been holding down her high school sweet heart, Money, for the last five years while he does his bid. When Money’s bad behavior earns him more time behind bars Kid vows to do her own thing until he can get it right long enough to return home to her. When a small fling turns into a full blown affair, Kid finds herself in a deadly situation with no way out.

Ace, the leader of the infamous gang, THB, Trill Haitian Boys, decides to step down from his street ways to become a family man. When his wife leaves him to pick up the pieces with her first love he moves back home to the very same stomping grounds he vowed to stay away from. As the CEO/ Founder of the prominent business, Drippin’ Ice, Ace does everything in his power to stay away from the streets no matter how loudly they whisper his name. With a cold heart, Ace turns off his ability to care for any woman that is until he cross path with a lost soul.

In this gritty hood tale, there’s no limit one will reach to get what they want.

Lucinda Lucinda Lucinda you did that. I loved this book. O and Kids relationship is bomb. I love how they stepped up and was taking care of their sister and brother and each other.
I loved all the characters but I need more on Yoda. I love him. He is hilarious and a boss. I don't wanna give to much but this is a must read

Good read

Pretty interesting book. Not your typical exes drama or drug wars type stuff. But it was good and kept me turning the pages. Only critique that I have is that it was too many grammatical errors, kind of messed with the flow of the story. So I'd suggest better editing, other than that can't wait for part 2!!! Keep dropping heat Lucinda!

Savage Boss

This book pulled me in and held me hostage until the very end! Its so much drama, deceit and lies but also a lot of chemistry and love in the mix as well! Ace is definitely a savage boss but O that chick to be reckoned with too! Whew LJ does it again and I'm ready for part 2!

O.M.G...this good, real good!!! My Haitian flag is up🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹

O.M.G...what was that? This jewel hidden...a little bit too hardcore on the female side but hey, they needed to be that strong to deal with us haitians🙈🇭🇹😜....this was really, really, really good to introduce us to.
Osari, wow, what a lady. Too independent and too head strong and very stubborn but nevertheless a good woman. Was dealt a bad hand growing up, but she is the epitome boss lady.
Kalani same as Osari and as independent as ever. Stubborn as ever but as beautiful as Osari inside and out.
Ace, wow bae all day everyday 365 days a year is definitely my man. I want me an ace please.
Yoda is as ruthless as Ace and thought he was invincible, but think again. Both man very well endowed and beautiful will have their lives changed with and for a real one.
The only problem for me is that I wish there were some emotions, deep talk between the couple. More romance and less hardcore going on, but let's see what the finale is going to give, but I am mesmerized with having Haitian language and some features being put in this book...awsome...

Started off interesting, I did... Started off interesting, I didn't know where it was going and didn't like the direction it was headed. The back to back robbing guys was old fast, then for him to fall for that was hard. I'm not sure why Khalani was the one to step up when Bunny was the one pulling her into it.

Seems like she got off easy, the ending seemed about right. Now she needs to figure out how she's going to get him his back. He didn't do anything to deserve what she did to pay off something for Bunny. I'll be reading the next one. 7.8.19 209 pm

Ace & O

❤️Ace & O. Loved the bond that the sisters share. Where in the hell is Stacey? How you don’t come see your kids. Yoda has meet his match. Kalani has gotten the shock of her life. How this bih CiCi just gone pop up out if no where. Ace need to come handle her before O leave. 👑🖊Lu another great series in the works. Don’t make us wait to long for part 2. 👑📚

This was so good! Osari and Kid had been through so much but they kept pushing like it was nothing. I hate how ace’s ex did him but I was glad he was able to open his heart again. Can’t wait to see what she was on with her lil visit but I hope Osari doesn’t believe anything she says. Money has some nerve for real. Hope Kid is good. Ready for part 2!

OMG

This book started of slow but picked up. The relationship that Ace and O had was crazy and the new relationship with Kid and Yoda I can't wait to see how that turns out. The jaw dropper of this book was the ending with Money looking over Kid ready to end her. Don't leave me hanging for too long. Part 2 needed ASAP.

Savage bosses

All of them were savage bosses. It's funny how men want to do whatever but have a problem when women do the same. Ace is the king savage, elevating Osari to different levels. I love how I and Kalani have each other's back as well as their siblings. The ending was crazy, so ready for book two.

Can't wait for book 2

A real good read. I love O and Ace for each other. I hope things work out for them. I wonder what was in that envelope CiCi gave O. I hope Kid don't get hurt behind what she did to Money. I like her and Yoda together. I could see Yoda settling down with her. I'm glad Yoda spared Kid, Bunny and Bunny's unborn baby.

Great book!

I love this book! It was so realistic and captivating. I couldn’t keep my hands off of it, even while I was at work I read it. I can’t wait for part two! I hope O isn’t pregnant and that Yoda saves Kid I don’t trust Money at all.

Book flows good

Kalani done got herself in some mess with taking Money stuff. I understand she was mad and all but she had to know he was going to come for her. And Osari I hope she gives Ace time to explain about Cici before she runs off or something. Can’t wait for part two

The story was good. However, I wish there had been more of a build up to Ace and Osari’s relationship. It seemed a bit rushed to me. Nevertheless, I still enjoyed the book. I look forward to reading part 2.

Omg

That book was great. Sheesh the storyline kept you guessing what was to happen next. The characters had me hollering and yelling at them. I’m rooting for all couples to get a happy ending. You did great job we need part 2 ASAP
