Rate this book
23-year-old Courtney Adams is dating one of the highest paid plugs in the city. That is until she’s introduced to his boss, the connect, Adric “AD” Hernandez. Her best friend Britin was the one to introduce them, for her own selfish motives. They say, you never know who’s your real friend until you meet a man that gives you the world. Will Courtney and Britin’s friendship overcome Britin’s jealousy for the way that men love Courtney?

Paiton “Slade” Perez is one of the most successful drug dealers to come out of the Perez Cartel Organization, but he must give credit for his success to his connect, Adric Hernandez. His day one, Jeremiah, is a wolf in sheep’s clothing, wanting Courtney for himself, and going against Slade’s wishes.

Adric “AD” Hernandez is every girl’s problem solver. He’s charismatic, fit, fine, and swimming in money. Yet, no woman in Atlanta can bag him, except for simple ass Courtney Adams. When word gets out that she’s the one that he’s chosen to be with, his ex and her nemesis starts plotting heavily on how to break things up between them. He knows who and what he wants but will their love story be too hood to survive the secrets that stand in between them?

Take a read inside to find out the fate of these lovers and their friendships.

Satisfied Reader

Britin,Daisha and Teamber are all haters. They hate on the next girl cuz they couldn't keep a man. Courtney is a good girl and she's being tormented by these nothing azz women. Jeremiah was pathetic. Slade was low down the way he played Courtney. But she could've said no. So she was just as guilty. Adric should've came clean and now he prolly lost the best thing for him. Khari is probably the only sane one in the book

Confused

Maybe it’s just me but I could not get through the entire book. Too many point of views. I lost focus on who were the main characters. Some people I didn’t care to hear from. It felt like I was reliving the same situation because the situation was told from 5 different views.

Part 2

Give them a reason to hate you , definitely fit this books description of characters. Disloyalty, trust and deception all the twist turns and lies I was soo upset wit Slade character he was a womanizer, then we had weird ass Jeremiah he creeped me out the most! The best thing Slade did was off him.
