Rate this book
All Nova knows is the streets... A crew passed down to her because of her parent’s death was not what she wanted, but she stepped up to the plate because it’s what she has always done... It hasn’t always been easy, especially dealing with an incompetent brother who does the crew more harm than good. His latest mess has thrown Nova into the arms of a man she is lusting over, but obviously has secrets. Without even thinking, she has thrown herself in the middle but has no idea what she has gotten herself into.

One fatal night caused Major to walk away from the streets and go legit, at least from what the eyes can see. His back door dealings and things from his past are threatening to tear down everything he has worked hard for. Nothing seemed to be going right until he met Nova. A perfect match, and now crazy in love, they had no idea they both were carrying a secret that can and will destroy the other.

Marlowe has always been second... in relationships and friendships. A series of events forced her to toughen up and do some things she normally wouldn’t do. Sent on a mission, Marlowe could never fathom falling for the wrong man, Dro. As happy as she was, someone from her past, came back and may have altered her life and relationship for good.

Never the one to care about much, Hydro lived his life in the fast lanes. Only trusting his brother, he never allowed anyone to get too close to him. His lifestyle and the women he chose to date made it easy for him to stay unattached. Until he met Marlowe. The girl that took his soul and his heart, and with one bad decision, shattered it.

Skeletons always find a way to come out of the closet, and secrets are always revealed, find out what happens when the love you’re blinded by, tears your world apart.

Satisfied Reader

With these two authors collaborating is a set up for laughter and a great story. I haven't been so entertained by so many characters in one book. Will Nova make the right decision and follow her heart or will she help and send the man she's grown to like away for a long time. Major has his hands full with Chase. That boy needs a good ole fashioned whooping. Dro fell for Marlowe after showing what those kegels could do. How many KO's wil Nigel need to know its over and Dro aint playing with him. Where did Chasity come from and how will Major handle things now. Pt.2 me ASAP

WOW!!!

I can’t believe you ladies did that to us with that ending. My mouth is still wide open..Y’all never ceases to amaze me. This book was so darn good and funny. I have never laughed so much in my life. This whole family is crazy..Chase can’t help but to act like he does, it started with that Mama..This is one of my favorite series...I highly recommend everyone to read this book. If you don’t read it you are definitely missing out on a great one. This is most definitely a must read right now. I can’t wait to read part 3...you ladies definitely deserve way more than these 5 stars...It was AWESOME!!!!

I must say that I was not ready for that ending and will be feigning for book two. I really love both of these authors and the two of them together had me laughing my butt off. That darn Chase needed his behind torn out the frame. I don’t know what Nova said or did to him, but he completely changed. Now that so called mafia or whatever they were, were incompetent as I don’t know what. How many times are you going to try to kill someone and fail? I’m actually rooting for a relationship between Money and Nova, along with Dro and Marlowe. Great job ladies!

Starting to wonder

Mannnnn look I’m not bout to keep fooling with y’all unstable creatures like this. Between Chase and. Dro I don’t know who is worse 🤦🏽‍♀️. And y’all know y’all probably going to have a serious conversation with the big guy upstairs right. I’m seriously starting to wonder if the grandmother is smoking on some of those tricky greens. I’m starting to wonder about y’all mental stability at times got my nerves bad. Phenomenal job as always.

WTH!!!

I have absolutely no words for real for this ending. This whole book has taken me on a rollercoaster for real. I love that the jokes are endless no matter what they are going through. The madness continues with characters but I have no clue what will happen. Part 3 should be bomb!!!

What is really going on!!

These masters of the pen have done it again. Just when I think everything is ok. Something big happens. Major and Nova can't seem to get it together. Chase has me literally in tears laughing he really is bad. Marlowe and Dro are both too stubborn. This storyline is so good. These characters are the best. I can hardly wait for part 3.

Ok

It started out really good I really liked the plot of the book but It just was a little over the top so Chase went from being 6 months to 5 years old putting crack in his teachers food some parts were really ridiculous especially when it came to 5 year old Chase. It was a ok story all in all

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This book was so good. I was so ready to smack Marlowe🙄 I was like you can’t be that dang dumb over no d**k. That Marlowe took the cake boy🤬 Chase was bad asf😂 but I felt bad for him. Dro was a hot a** mess and I loved him for Marlowe. Major and Nova just need to talk and get it together, they not doing nothing but making things worse for each other.

So Freaking Good

So Chase ass is bad but very funny. Major and Nova are good for each other but there are so many things trying to keeping them apart. I really hope Marlowe pulls through this situation so she give Dro his soul back.

Never seems to let me down!


This woman always amazes me and gets guaranteed laughs as I read her novels, I'm liking the characters Chase and OMG Mama Harris is a trip. This review is short because I'm dying to see how this all plays out in book two. But I really enjoyed reading this book.
