The Carter Boys #2

The Return of the Carter Boys: The Carter Boys 2

Rate this book
The Carter Boys are a rap group on the rise, and their name rings loud in Atlanta. With their pretty-boy looks and take-no-prisoners demeanor, all the men want to be like them, and women will fight to be with them.

Stepping outside of his relationship with his current woman seems impossible to Trent, the preppy college boy of the Carter family, because he fought hard to make things work with Jade. But that all changes when the girl who had a childhood crush on him comes back into the picture looking totally different than he remembered. How does the smooth, smart, and prettiest of the Carter boys deal with this, especially now that he finally has tough-as-nails Jade in his life?

Still not quite understanding his quiet and dark demeanor, Noelle can't help the attraction she feels for her mysterious neighbor, Shiloh Carter. Could it be the romantic and affectionate side he shows her when no one else is around? Or is the mystery surrounding this man really a major turn on for her? Everything between the two neighbors is great until she gets a front row seat to a side of Shiloh that she never saw coming. Will Noelle stick around, or will she pack her things and move far away from Atlanta when she realizes that Shiloh is more dangerous than she thought?

Shiloh and Trent take center stage in this second installment of The Carter Boys series, but all the alluring and mysterious Carters make an appearance in this story about the sexy, powerful brothers that readers just can’t get enough of.

It’s the drama 🎭

It’s the toxicity 😵‍💫

It’s the lies 🤥

It’s the betrayal 👹

It’s the fk boy activity 🤡

It’s all the things for me because why are these Carter Boys like this?!?!!!

When I tell y’all I want Trent and Elijah’s head on silver platters!!!!

The way they are playing in my girls Jordyn and Jade’s faces has me ready to 👏🏽run 👏🏽down 👏🏽on 👏🏽them!!

I’m enjoying the dynamic between Shiloh and Noelle and can’t wait to see that relationship bloom!

As for everyone else….. I think Ringling Bros. is hiring 😒

✨Book Review✨
I’m hooked. This series is so addictive. And these brothers are WILD, to say the least.

Noelle and Shiloh- Shiloh Carter has my full attention! It’s always the mean ones that turn out to be bae, he’s so mysterious and controlled and I find that to be extremely sexy. That man, Reed Noelle like the back of his hand. 😂 I thought my girl was going keep that lying going, shit I might’ve 😂 I don't know if I could’ve told that man no 🤣🤣

Tia and Jaheim: I still don’t like Tia's ass. Fighting over a man who doesn’t want you is NUTS, but to be fighting over that man while pregnant with his brother's baby is absolutely insane. Jaheim surprised me, but then at the same time not really because I saw a little glimpse of this side of his character in book one a small glimpse, but I knew he had it in him. I’m curious to see how this relationship grows, especially since Tia still hasn’t come out and told this man that she slept with his brother. I’m curious if Trent even remembers her, I still want the baby to be Trent’s 😂

Jordyn and Elijah- These two are cute but Jordyn deserves better and I hope she gets it. Leave that hoe ass nigga right where he at and fuck that “friend” Rita, she wants to be Jordyn so bad and Elijah is paying her as dusk now. 😑 I can’t believe he slept with that girlfriend. 🤦🏾‍♀️ Him claiming to be in love with her but not wanting to admit it and still wanting to do him IS NOT LOVE SIR. Jordyn needs to DO HER for real!

Jade and Trent- I HATE THIS 🥷🏾 TRENT!! He is the worst. Pretty ass 🥷🏾 think he can just do anything I can’t believe he is about to play Jade like this because I know it’s not just going to be this one time. 😡😡 Jade better not let this gay ass 🥷🏾 play her. I hope she finds out and bounces on that ass.

Taylor- The Pretty Girl: Big Tay! She gone stay that since she a damn dummy! How do you let a 🥷🏾 who picked on you your whole childhood see you after all these years and you are soft as putty for his ass? And then to let the 🥷🏾 take your virginity, it’s gotta be crack you’re smoking, right? Because I would’ve come back on the scene and stunted on his ass and made him eat every last one of them words he ever spoke to me. But to add insult to injury, you know this man has a girlfriend, and you still choose to move this way. I can’t wait for him to play in her face. 🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️


That ending had to be STRESSED!!! 🤯😳😬These Carters are straight-up lunatics!! I was so scared for Noelle. I wonder how this is about to play out now. On to book 3

OMG

This story keep getting better and better. This book picks up from where book one left off. Familiar characters are in here with bigger problems. The new characters blend in with the old ones. I must say those Carter Boys got some problems but as Jay Z says the clean cut, a female not one. There's a lot of secrets, denial, and new love surfacing. What a great read.

All the characters talk the same, it’s like copy and paste with different names.

Oh my Goodness

I loved the second part to this series. I'm glad that Jade and Trent have gotten serious, I did not like the fact that he slept with another woman even though he claims it won't happen again. I have an inkling that that will come between him and Jade. I wish Elijah would face his feelings and tell Jordyn that he loves her. I felt terrible for her when he admitted sleeping with Rita. I'm loving Noelle and Shiloh. I also liked the fact that Trell's boyfriend finally got tired of his crap. Can't wait for part 3

5 stars all the way

Omg I feel like crying right now, like how the hell, the book ends and I'm getting to the good part, no no no I'm not happy at all. Like I hope this Author like for real hurry up and bring out book 3, like I'm dying to read what happens next. I love all the Carter boys but I think Shiloh is my favorite one, I love that he's dangerous and quiet at the same time.

Ready for part 3

This series is just to easy to read and juicy. I feel like I be reading to fast sometimes. Each page keep the juice coming. I'm starting to really like Shiloh's character. Elijah is a selfish jerk and he's annoying. Jordyn can do better. Trent, not even going to waste my time typing about him. Tay should have stayed away. Olivia is spoiled but I all the way in with her brothers on this best down.

What an ending!!!!!

Mannnn!!!!! What an ending. I can't wait for part 3. I love Noelle and Shiloh together. Jaheim and Nia are a match made in hell. I can't wait for Trent to get his heart broken. Elijah better admit he loves that girl or he is going to lose out. But back to this ending man oh man!!! I wish I could be in that kitchen when them fine azz ninjas hit that corner.

The Saga Continues

In this book we learn a lot about Shilo and Noelle. The love he has for her is real but he is a complicated man.
The drama is ramped up and leaves the reader with a "jaw dropping" cliffhanger!

OMG! These dudes are so trifling. Trent and Elijah in particular, but Trent... wow he's self-centered. Anyway, all of these guys have some massive control and infidelity issues, but these girls are no angels either. This was a good follow up

This Series!!!! If you like loyal, toxic, romance, drama, family times, dysfunction, love, generational trauma with a cast of characters unlike anything you've ever read, you still might not be ready for Them Carters!!!
