Young Gucci: Love at First Swipe
“Love isn’t about how much you say I love you, but how much you can prove it…”
Finding love in the club wasn’t working for Soraya after she dumped her ex for going to jail, so she tries to find love online. Thousands of women have found love with a simple click of the mouse, and she wants to test it out for herself. Just when Soraya thinks that spending hours online looking for a man is a complete waste of time, she finds YoungGucci90’s profile. Looking at his hazel eyes in his pictures, she falls in love instantly.
Though her roommate is convinced that he’s a catfish, Soraya sees him at a concert at the House of Blues in West Hollywood. Fast romance blossoms and everything seems to be too good to be true. Though he is the guy from his online profile, he hasn’t been honest about who he really is. Hiding behind a persona he’s created to keep his real identity safe, will he find it’s too late to come clean?

The book was actually a very good read. I personally didn't like the ending. Or the situation w Kaeja & Avian.It left me with soooo many questions.

This was really good! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I was entertained throughout the entire reading. However, I'm a bit disturbed by how it ended. 😔 How can you say "The end" in the middle of a statement? I thought there would be more to it, but the ending just seemed to come out of nowhere. 😑

This book was good. It's crazy how people can't handle rejection and will do things to think that going to get them back the person they want. Sometimes it's best to go be with the one that actually love you and never did nothing to you for you to leave them.
