Deron & Nariah: A Tarnished Tale of Love
Deron, a young, handsome and successful NBA player has the entire world in his hands. With nothing to lose and everything to gain, from the outside looking in life is good. That is, until he's out of the public eye. Off the court, Deron lives a secret fast life that involves drugs, strippers, deceit, and scandals that are bound to turn his world along with everyone else’s around him upside down. But when he meets Nariah, a beautiful fashion designer, he is smitten to say the least, and willing to do anything to get and keep her by his side; even if that means including her in his dangerous affairs.Coming from a broken home and suffering from tragedies that scarred her heart, Nariah never imagined herself to become the woman of someone like Deron. After an unexpected run in and a few dates, the two quickly become an item. Being the trophy of an NBA player proves to be everything Nariah ever dreamed of, but when jealousy from an outside source begins to surface her happily ever after suddenly takes a drastic turn for the worse. Skeletons in Deron's closet that he so desperately tries to hide is brought to the forefront, and forces him to go to extreme lengths to protect what’s his. Soon after, Nariah stumbles across information that causes her to question Deron’s motives with her and everything that he thinks is fixed starts to spiral out of control.As you flip through the pages of this jaw dropping story, you will get an unparalleled premium court side experience to all of their drama. Find out if Nariah leaves the ball in Deron’s court and becomes a free agent, or if she sticks beside her man in the first quarter of Deron & A Tarnished Tale of Love!

Deron and Nariah: Twisted of Love
Deron and Nariah; A Tarnished Tale of Love by Shay Renee is excellent read. Shay Renee does a good job. She takes her time to writing this book. It’s well written and it’s phenomenal story.
Shay tells the definition of Tarnished. Tarnished is a less valuable, less respect and less love. Nariah is a good and intelligence person but she is a weak. She has a good heart and she has a good career as a Fashion Designer but she allows Deron manipulating in her mind. She should pay attention to the red flags from Deron. She’s definition of A Tarnished Tale of Love. Deron is a con-artist. He is controlling and manipulating. Allyson is a dumb chick. Troy is a bad news.
I can’t wait to reread part two of this book. If you haven’t read this book, it’s available on Amazon and support your girl. I’ll definitely continue to support and read more from this author.

Shady
I'm giving this storyline the side eye for now because it's a good book. The characters are unbelievable with the fact that he's a NBA ball player with no security. The fact that his only right hand man and so called brother is shady and setting him up. Noraih be aggressive yet dumb enough to think he only messing with her is the reason I gave it 3 stars. This book has the potential to be a 5 star I just need to read on and hope Nick isn't Deron downfall. Allyson really ain't the problem because he keep playing with her.

Lots of backstabbing!
Everyone seemed to have an agenda and was plotting on each other. I really wanted to see Deron’s and Nariah’s relationship flourish, but Deron seemed to have a lot of issues going on. Allison and Nick were true snakes and I can’t wait to see what kind of visit that they receive from Karma.

Relationship Drama
Crazy dude alert! Deron definitely has issues and me reading just to see what crazy situation or woman he'd encounter next. Nariah seems just as confused and messed up and needs to deal with her past so she can prepare for her future. Not sure about this couple, but looking forward to part 2 to see what happens next.

Great read
Another page turner. This book will have you wide open. Deron is jekyll and Hyde. You're rooting for their relationship one minute then telling Nariah to move on. But Nariah isn't as innocent as she wants us to believe. You're going to want to read book 2 to know how these characters unravel

Once again Shay Renee has done it
You have thoroughly outdone yourself with this book. Allyson and Nariah are irritating. If a man hits you once get out of that relationship. I actually think Deron is bipolar. Until he gets help no body will ever be happy. Waiting for the sequel.

Great read! Wow, what is up with Deron, one minute he’s this nice person and then when he’s angry he’s putting his hands on a female! I don’t understand Allyson, why is she so bent over Deron but already married! I think Nariah need to hurry up and get away from Deron! Can’t wait for part 2!

Ain't no way in hell I would keep putting up with Deron's ass especially when he can't keep his hands to hisself. Nariah is crazy for staying. Can't wait for part two.

I loved it but Deron needs done serious help. Mariah needs to get herself together. I know that Deron is doing her wrong but sleeping with Nick us not the solution. He is family. I can't wait to read part 2.
