Completing the task seemed simple enough until recognition of his target hit far too close to home. Unable to pull the hit off, Siren took the target into captivity. Trying his best to keep his distance, keeping his feelings in check became harder each day. Jamila spent years infatuated with her best friend’s brother, but he never gave her the time of day. Unfortunate circumstances compels them to share the same space, where Jamila does everything in her power to get him to notice her. As she is under his arms of protection, all hope isn’t lost in the eyes of Jamila who uses this as a chance to get closer. As truths begin to unfold, Jamila’s faced with a decision that could cause her more damage than good. Unbeknownst to the world, Shelene was head over heels for her brother’s best friend.

What she didn’t expect was to actually fall in love with a guy that made the game she was playing even more dangerous. Showing up out of nowhere, everyone questioned the motives of the mysterious Philly. With a plan to take over in mind, the last thing he wanted or needed was love. Even though he was falling hard for Shells, her current situation deemed to be problematic. Not one to play games, Philly leaves her with an ultimatum that leaves their relationship in question. Unbeknownst to everyone, they all have one enemy and goal in common. But when drama, secrets, and betrayal arise, will they turn on each other and have to fight a war from within? Or will they be able to come together and take down the one person that poses a threat to them all??

Another great read!!
What can I say about this page turner. Latoya Nicole really did her thing once again. These characters literally make you fall in love with them and their shenanigans. Siren and Jammie are both beyond petty. Great storyline and great book.

Latoya Nicole hey there! You just recruited you a new reader. This book was 🔥 🔥 🔥 Look like Siren secret is out smh that fool know he didn't kill that girl wow!! I know one thang, this book had me rolling at one point 😂😂😂 When homegirl tried to give Siren head and he let out that big ass fart that stink, I hollered 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I was so happy Siren teamed up with Philly to take his brother down and I can't wait. I'm so over him. I honestly think he's the perfect fit for Siren's sis but we'll see. I hope Shelly Belly's homegirl see that Siren is the one for her. Things happen that's beyond our control sometimes. I really want them to work it out. He did it all for her and the sooner she realize it the better.This book grabbed me from the beginning and I love it 😍 Let me carry on to book 2 now cause baby look I am dying to know what's next.

Craving the love
Honey these thugs in this book got it going on but the ladies are definitely coming in close. They ain't backing down and need that thug love to go with their black girl magic attitudes. Shelly and Jammie are too cute, they aren't holding their tounge and letting each other know the real. They are funny and can definitely show their other side. Now Bink is an asshole, Philly I can definitely get use to and Siren has gotten himself in some mess. Hell I don't even know what he could do but bring her back safe cause I feel like that is the only way to get back in her good graces. Jammie has every right to be mad and upset at Siren for real. Hopefully Philly and Siren do something to get her back. Definitely great read, good laughs and great storyline.

Things are really about to heat up!
I got really pissed in the when Lay was killed and it caused me to dislike Bing in the beginning. He seems like a slimy bully to me. He, his wife and his Connect seem slimy and I can’t wait until they’re all taken out. All this time that Siren tried to keep Jammie safe just came to an end. I hope that he can save her I time. Can’t wait to read book two.

Between Siren and Jammie i don't know who's crazier. I hate the position Siren has been put in by the evilness of Bink. Siren and Jammie deserves each other and i pray Siren can orotect her from afar. Bink is so full of hatred and i hope Philly take his ego down a notch. This book is good and full of laughs and i can't wait for pt.2

Straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Let me start by saying congratulations on your first indie release. This damn book stays true to your ability to bring us crazy but relatable characters. At the same time your pin is growing because by the second page in the book you changed the game. It kept me reading and captivated and I’m patiently waiting for part 2.

Now this book was good with lots of laughter in between the drama. Bink was a nasty behind I dislike him. Jammies and siren kept me cracking up. But Bink crossed good NG up to sirens house trying to go against sirens wishes. Nothing good is complicated by from thos

A lot of scenes were moving fast with the characters meaning everything was happening back to back and I was like wait slow down lol but more secrets will be revealed and I’m gonna read part 2

Not quite....
I just couldn’t connect with this book. I downloaded it without reading the description because I always download LatoyaNicole. There didn’t seem to be any real direction. I know there’s Part 2 coming and I hope I’m able to get into it a little better.
