Tamed by His Love: The Rise of a Determined Side Chick
Meet, Nioka Breon Rowe. You’re going to either love her or hate her!
This beautiful woman has everything going for herself. She's educated, has a good job, and money in her bank account. The only thing that’s missing, is something she desperately wants, but doesn't have; a good man of her own.
After Nioka’s high school crush Cameron breaks her heart into a million pieces behind messing off with her best friend Kachobe, she not only writes love off forever, she vows to get revenge. This opportunity doesn’t take long to surface when Kachobe hooks her claws into the handsome Kaleem Jones.
Once Nioka observes Kachobe’s happiness, she immediately plots for payback, but while administering it, she gets caught up by Kaleem’s unique swagg. The way he talks, the way he walks and ‘oh, how he puts in down on her in the bedroom so good’, are all the things that turn Nioka’s revenge into an obsession.
Now ready to do whatever it takes to have Kaleem, Nioka is willing to act on bi-curious feelings as well as sharing. Thing is, eventually someone is going to feel left out. Who will that be?
Find out when you flip through these steamy pages of love, lust and betrayal. They will have you looking at your closest friends sideways!

“Nioka"
Nioka is out of her mind. She is soo obsessed with Kaleem. You don't want to like her but you can't help it. She has been through some traumatic stuff. Wow!!! I have no idea how this story is going to play out. This story is so unpredictable and I love it!!! Can't wait for pt 2.

Wow
Nioka is crazy. She takes fatal attraction to a whole different level. She put herself in so much unneeded pain. Kaleem was no good and knew it. The two of them toxic. Nothing good can come from all that she is done. I can't handle her. Good book. I would recommend this book.

This is my first read by this author, but definitely not my last. For this to be your debut Camille you came out swinging. All i can say is WOW...my mouth was wide from the first p[age to the very end. Held my attention and wouldn't release me...a page-turner. This book had so many twist and turns I didn't know what to expect next. Kept me wondering and guessing. Very well written and flowed really well. Full of lies, secrets, lust, deceit and betrayal/ I loved that it had no grammar errors. Nioka was something else and you either loved her or hated her. Then Nioka, Kaleem and Kachobe started out with Nioka getting revenge, then an obsession. But how will it all end...someone is going to get hurt. Job well done Camille. you've gained a new fan.

Decent Read
Nioka set her own self up to be put in a position to get hurt by Kaleem. She was holding on to revenge against Kachobe over something that happened when they were younger but Nioka got caught up in her feelings. I believe Nioka has the same mental illness that plaques her mother. Kachobe was just as trifling as they come. Her and Kaleem was made for each other. I'm stuck on the fact that she has turned a blind eye or pretend to not know what is going on right up under her nose. Kaleem is just like a lot of men. As long as he was getting the milk for free. There was no reason for him to buy the cow.

Wow!!
I'm convinced that Nioka is just like her mom. This book was not what I expected. It was very good but the relationship between the two best friends was kind of crazy. Even though Nioka's mother was locked down she was on point. Wachobe was really sad as well as her husband. Great writing Camille. I can hardly wait to see what part 2 holds for me.

🔥🔥🔥 awesome read
First time reading from this author but I must say she brought it. Story held ur attention from the beginning to the end. Was not disappointed. Can’t wait for pt 2 cause It’s going to be more drama. How do u go years dating ur best friend man? How u mad that he getting married? So many unanswered questions I’ll wait for pt 2 to get them.

Great Read
This book grabbed my attention from the very first page. Very well written and the character development was great. What a crazy friendship Nioka and Kachobe had. The drama between these two girls will have your head spinning. Now that Nioka has her revenge set in full motion what will happen next as she waits for everything to unfold. Cant wait for part 2.

A GOOD BOOK!!!
These girls had the craziest friendship ever. Nioka mom should have gotten help a long time again. I couldn’t have a friend like Nioka or Kachobe..there relationship was toxic and Kaleem didn’t deserve either one of them...

Obsession at its finest.
Nioka has some kind of mental illness going on with the way she acts. She is so obsessive. I love how this book is written from one perspective. It’s worth the read.

A page turner
This was a page turner from beginning to end. This is a new author, and she came off the bench swinging and hit a homerun. I will definitely add her to my list. I loved the twists and turns and oh the drama. Secrets, lies, and betrayal at every turn. A storyline like no other. I can't wait to see what's coming next.

Tamed by His Love was a very different read. It is full of lies, deceit, betrayal, lust, secrets, & toxic relationships. It focuses on a very toxic friendship between two so-called best friends, Nioka & Kachobe. I've never heard of a friendship like theirs before. I definitely wouldn't want to be friends with either of them with the way their character is. I actually felt bad for the both of them. With Nioka, you either loved or hated her. She was a straight up, no holds barred, don't give a f**k chick. She was crazily following the path of her mother, in my opinion. (Yes, her mother was really something.) Kachobe was also an interesting character. She was more so on the petty & childish side. How can two people call themselves best friends, yet hated & envied each other as they did?
And then there goes that sexy Kaleem. He basically HAD his cake & ATE it too, with no care in the world. The love triangle that he was the center of with Nioka & Kachobe was insane. The hold he had on these women was indeed believable. I mean, it happens. They both deserved so much better than him though. I’m anxious to know how things will turn out in book 2. One thing anyone, male or female, can take from this book, is to be careful of who you call your friend ...and your significant other as well. Your friend can be your biggest enemy & your significant other can be the most disrespectful and unloyal person ever to you with no regard to how you feel.
Overall this book had a good storyline. I enjoyed reading this book because I was interested in finding out what was going to happen next. Especially, if Nioka was going to finally have Kaleem to herself. It is a drama-filled read, however, there were a few grammatical errors throughout the book that sometimes caused me to re-read a few sentences more than once to make sure I got what the author was saying. I give this book four stars, would recommend it to others and I will be reading the next installment.

Very good book
This is most definitely a banging book. It is worth every star and then some. I feel as if I must warn you these people in this book will bring you out of character. I wanted to slap fire just about everyone but the kids and then lock them up somewhere. I'm not going to spoil it for anyone. You have to read it for yourself. Now I'm waiting on part 2 to see what happens.
