When A Thug Loves You Better
Lira thought arranged marriages were a thing of the past until it happened to her. At the tender age of ten, her parents promised her hand in marriage in exchange for financial stability. As the wedding date vastly approaches, she searches for a way out, not realizing she’d already found it.
Beau is forbidden fruit. In her eyes, he’s God in human form. In the midst of all the chaos, he’s her peace—her safe place, but no one wants to see them together.
Wade is terrified of commitment and has been ever since his mother walked out on him and his father. What happens when the timid, bookworm Noel’s world collides with playboy Wade and she gives him her most prized possession?

Nice standalone
This was action packed which made me want to read at a fast pace just to see what would happen next. I loved that Lira was so tough and hated that her family put her in this predicament. At some point everyone from her mom and dad sister and brother irked me with how they dealt with her. Once she met Beau I was rooting for them. There were so many twists and turns and before long I found myself rooting for Noel and Wade too!

YES YES YES
Beau and Lira need another book. It was refreshing to read about a grown man being just that. Beau gave me life honestly. He didn’t have a bunch of women in and out. You got to see him and Lira become a Boss Couple. Andre was a creep. His mother needed to be checked along with the sister. I want to find out more about Wade and Noel as well as Wade Sr. and Clara. I even want learn more about Darian...Give Beau and Lira another book.

Really good read full of drama!! I really enjoyed this book. I like the bond Lira and Noel have with one another. That darn Nolan got exactly what he deserve and so did Andrea. I hope Momma Clara get her man cause he still loves her. Monica and Robyn got on my last nerve. Good job Taniece

Good read! I love the characters. I liked how the 2 love stories flowed. I would love a story about Darian it seems a lot to unpack there. Maybe a little novella about Wade and Noel too!

Good Standalone
A good well written story. Great characters that are both likeable and entertaining. The drama, secrets and lies make for a dramatic read. I definitely couldn't put it down until the last page. Can't wait to see what this author brings next.

Great quickie
I enjoyed this book. It was quick and sweet. Nolan was an idiot. Andre and his family were garbage. Noel and Wade were too cute. Loved Beau and old girl too. This is a feel good book. ❤

Good read
This book moved pretty quickly. I didn’t expect it to move that fast nor the ending. Boss and Forbes are reunited! I don’t remember the book ever saying why they really didn’t like each other

Awesome
This was a good read. I just hated how they tried to force her to marry someone that didn't mean her any good. I'm glad she got her man and is beyond happy

This was a great storyline, full of twist and turns. I couldn't put it down. I was happy Beau wouldn't give on Lira. Noel was exactly what Wade needed. Nolan and Andre were both b*tch boys and both got what they deserved. I was hoping someone stomped a mud hole in Nolan. I was so happy Lira and Noel got they got the men they loved. Good job💯

Arranged marriage with a twist. It would be nice to read a spin off with Noel & Wade. Lira went through so much but made out on top. A definite must read!

A good read that is well written, with just the right amount of drama, secrets, lies, and deceit. The characters ate likeable, naive, young, and all dealing with the past hindering their futures. With a good storyline that has a few twist I enjoyed this read.
