Rotten Oranges: Miami's Finest

Rate this book
The Rotten fruit franchise takes us to beautiful Miami, Florida. Khawan and Kharese grew up on different sides of the notorious Pork and Bean projects. They had been mortal enemies until they realized how much they had in common.
Once the girls combine their smarts and looks, they become thick as thieves and began to leave their old friends behind. Easier said than done since crabs in a barrel tend to pull each other down instead of lift each other up.
 Can Kharese and Khawan overcome their surroundings or be swallowed up by them? Will they become more products of their ghetto environment or, become two of Miami's Finest with a bright future ahead of them?

GREAT READ

This Author never disappoint when he pens a story. It will have you on the edge of your seat from the beginning to the end. Doris and Sharona had more in common than being excited best friends and stripping buddies. They both shared Khyrie which came between their friendship and had them beefing along with their two daughter's. With Khyrie out of the pictures. Both women realized that their beef was petty and that their daughter's has squashed theirs as well. Kharese and Khawan soon learned who Khyrie really was. The two formed a bond when their so called friends threw them under the bus after a incident. Both are products of their environment but with semi level head's. Both mother's and daughter's are hustlers but in that type of game. It will breed envy. Doris and Sharona got caught up. Kharese and Khawan good life is about to take a turn for the worst. I'm looking forward to part two.

DON'T JUST READ BUY A MUST HAVE

Awe! Okay. You showing out now. I'm really feeling this series. My favorite so far. The storyline, plot. This read felt different from the others. It was captivating from beginning to end. The Peaches was the Body. The Apple's was the Mind. But these Oranges is the Soul. And I'm feeling the flavor. Sweet and Tart!! Can't wait to see what's next in this installment.

LOVED IT

This was really good, did not put it down. I liked that it was two instead of four. Being sisters gives it another plus. Can't wait until the next episode.
