I.C.Y: A Hood Type Of Love Story

Rate this book
When you think of the word Valentine you automatically think of love, compassion & appreciation. Oh, and let’s not forget about sex. Instead of Valentine being about all things heart warming, for these three sisters it’s all about the ice or should I say I.C.Y.
sis Valentine is the feisty, thick bombshell that sits at the head of the table. Being a boss chick is never easy but she makes it look like a walk in the park. Becoming tired with her night job she starts to realize she wants more out of life & only wants it with one man. Children & marriage is at the top of this hood queen’s list but when you play second string you never get first string benefits.
Charlize Valentine better known as Charli is the wild child that lives by her own rules. Quick with her trigger finger but even quicker to kick a dude out of her bed, this small beauty is nothing to play with. Like most dudes the word love isn’t in Charli’s vocabulary. After suffering from a broken heart Charli puts her heart on ice, never wanting to go through that trauma again.
Yasi Valentine is the youngest and to her nothing is easy about being the youngest amongst sisters who attract attention every where they go. Yearning for the attention her heart desires she finds herseslf in a world of trouble, trouble that might be too big for her trigger to fix.
The Valentine sisters better known as ICY aren’t your average chicks. Their smiles will mesmerize you but never get it twisted; their lips are the gun & their kisses are the trigger. Oh I ain’t tell you, label em some killers.

text KKP to 22828 for updates on new releases, Sneak Peeks, & so much more.

Kellz Kimberly 24, fell in love with urban fiction after reading 'Baby Girl' by Jihad. The was only the first of many urban fiction novels she fell in love with. Eventually Kellz took her love for reading it and redirected it to a pen & paper. Dropping her first book in 2014 Kellz Kimberly has been building a name for herself ever since. With 27 books under her belt & 9 of them being Amazon Urban Fiction Number One Best Seller, Kellz Kimberly is just getting started.

She is slowly but surly taking the Urban fiction world over by storm. She recently took home the AAMBC BreakOut Author of The Year award, solidifying her as a force to be reckon with. This is only the start for Kellz Kimberly, she is always working and coming with new material to give readers then same feeling she got when she read her first urban fiction book.

Not only is she an author but she is a publisher as well. She works with her authors to help them pursue their dreams and encourages them to tell their story in a form of another story.

At only 24 she has accomplished a lot but she's nowhere near done with her list of goals. For her writing is so much more than just telling a story. It's about being able to have a reader full in love with a set of characters so much that they feel invested in the book. For her that is the greatest feeling of.

The best way to sum up Kellz Kimberly is 'She Writes, She Grinds, She Slays"

The truth

I am so glad you wrote this book it’s very relatable in som many ways. My favorite sister is Yasi she who is trying to find herself and stand on her own. And her man Vegas is definitely a dream. Can’t wait for part 2. You did that Ms. Kimberly keep up the great work.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I couldn’t stop reading once I got started. These sisters, know they all drove me crazy. I mean they all got on my nerves🤦🏾‍♀️ Isis I don’t know what she was thinking half the time. I wanted to jump through this book and shake some sense into her. I can’t even believe that Charli was holding on to her issue for so long. I was like giiiirrrrrllll , please get over it already 🤷🏾‍♀️ Yasi wasn’t to annoying but at times she needed to just sit her a** down somewhere. The Rose brothers was the truth. Tasu.... I understood where he was coming from but he should’ve handled things differently.

ICY

These sisters, Charlize, Isis & Yasi, attidues are really I.C.Y. But they are really their sisters keepers. The girls are a hand full and all are going through their own battle after losing there mom and being raised by a dad who seems like he wants the best for them but at his choice. They all needed a reality check and the fellas Qais, Jayden & Vegas, they chose to rock with are making sure... A Reality check is top of their relationship. The book was good but the edits could have made it so much better with a good editor.

It was awesome!!!

I really really enjoyed this story. The Valentine sisters and the Rose brothers are something else. Isis got on my nerves throughout the book and acting like the youngest sibling instead of the oldest. Charli is so insecure it was becoming annoying but I'm happy she let Jux in. Yasi I like her a lot and can't wait to see what happens next with her. I like all the Rose brothers but Qais is bad. Tasu gets om my nerves with bid bipolar azz. Can't wait for book two, I loved book one.

ICY!!

Wow.. This was good.. You can tell Kellz put a lot into this book.. Not saying she doesn't with her other books because I am definitely a fan!! The sisters are cold bloodied baby they some beast. I think the men now in they life will certainly tame them. Something is up with that Silis and I can't wait till Vegas take him out!! I hope all the girls are ok.. Ready for part 2!!

Off to A great start.... It started a little slow.. the sisters are crazy.. The brothers are even worse...Wow,,, Charlize finally admitting she loved Jux, he iwas a very strong man to check her, and put her in her place.. LOL... Oasi just loved his smoothness. Vegas... hummm Jury still out on him and Yasi.... Isis wow is she a wild child.. Tasu is a soiled child... Hopefully he has nothing to do with what happend to the girls at the end.... if so...

Three confused little girls

This book was definitely different in a good way. The 3 sister's even though ruthless was very childish and confusing. I think Isis was my favorite because she owned what she did. Charli was so into getting her next sex partner she didn't really have another goal seems like. And yasi was all over the place the youngest but also the most determined to be happy. Good read

What a Ride!!

ICY met their match in the Rose brothers! All sisters finally coming into their own, but outside force won’t let them be. Vegas love for Yasi is everything. CHARLES is finally get her life with Jux, is it too late? Quasi is the Man for Isis. Can’t wait to see what happens next!!

Okay in enjoyed this test from beginning to end. The characters were well developed and it was way too keep up with the storyline. I'm so anxious to see what the hell is going on with this cliffhanger you left me with. My favorite character is Jux because he's crazier then crazy...

Not so good for me

I usually like her boojs but this was just annoying seriously. Yasi is tge epitome of entitled and I couldn't stand her at all through this book.. The other sisters i could tolerate but this just isnt my cup if tea. Couldnt get into it until the end. Again I couldn't stand Yasi at all.
