Teniel Lester is the definition of beautiful, strong, and independent black woman. Her life consists of running her business and taking care of her eight-year-old brother. She doesn't have time for drama, let alone romance in her life right now. However, that is exactly what the beauty finds in the form of a dope boy named Giovanni. But will Teniel be able to let go of her independent streak, long enough to let him love her?Giovanni Ferrari is a man who gets what he wants at all costs. When he comes to Teniel's rescue, he finds himself drawn to her in a way he never expected. But Giovanni isn't your average everyday dope boy, like she thinks. Teniel sees Giovanni as her knight in shining armor, but he is really the boogeyman of many people's nightmares. With Teniel already skittish, he wonders if she can handle all that comes with loving a Ferrari; especially, when all she wanted was to love an ordinary dope boy.Will the young couple find a legendary hood love? Or will it all be too much to handle? Find out in this new, gritty, urban romance, All I Wanted Was A Dope Boy. *************************************************************************************************************************This Urban Fiction Romance is recommended for fans of Chenell Parker, Jade Jones, Jessica Watkins, Mz.

Hurt
Now I know good and damn well! What just happened didn’t just happen? I know you wouldn’t do me like that! My feelings is so hurt right now! In all that is the land of pettiness you did not even have to do me like that

O.....M.....G... THE FERRARI BROTHERS MAFIA
I'm about to jump right on off the cliff with this cliffhanger. This book was all that and a bag of Doritos. From beginning to end I loved every page and part of this book. Kalief is my favorite. I'm a sucka for psychos. There's only 2 people who can put a smile on his face. Baby Navi his niece andnd Genesis. She is the light to his darkness. Even though he did it to save her life, when he hurt her and told her what they shared meant nothing, I felt it when her heart broke. Then he chloroform and kidnapped her when she wouldn't talk to him. Navy is my least favorite because he put poor lil Harper through the ringer. She catch him and he apologize and all is well in their world again. Until she finally snaps. Now she done went Stone Cold Steve Austin on a Mafia Princess and done started a war. Giovanni is the most level headed one and the oldest. He's always trying to fix what his brothers turn upside down. I like Teniel but she stubborn and hardheaded. G trying to keep her safe and she wanna live her best life, I wonder how that's working out for her. Yasauni did a magnificent job with this book and I can't wait for part two.💖💖

Good
Second time reading this story, very glad I did because I missed a lot the first time. Those brothers were such a handful, it was really good to see them fall in love for real , Teniel's mom was a piece of work. I do loved how Genesis took over Kalief's heart and he really didn't know how or what to do with it. Harper, Teniel's and Genesis formed a true bond. I pray Karma comes for Shakima and I hope in the next part the war between Radius and the guys won't be to devastating. Good Story

Great Book Yasauni
It was great from start to finish and I loved I all.
I feel bad about how Navy was doing Harper and that he couldn't be faithful costing him his girl and Navy her mom. I loved how Kalief was with Navi and that he was somewhat letting Genesis see his softer side that only came out with his niece. Teneil is hard headed but she's used to doing things on her so it's expected that she wouldn't be used to relying on anyone. It was crazy how they found out Jacobi was a Ferrari and their brother.

Head Spinner
This story has left my head spinning. From t he beginning, Teniel has been in forced into survivor mode.
G has been forced to be the problem solver at such a young age. Now things has changed drastically causing death in the aftermath.
I can't wait to see what happens next.

A must read
First time reading something by this author. A definite page turner. All 3 brothers are crazzzzy in their own way. Navy ain’t s###. I knew he wasn’t going to get right but I didn’t think it was going to be this drastic. Terry is a hot mess. Terry should be lucky she got people watching out for her. I just know part 2 is going to get even crazier.

Loved it
I am just speechless. I can't believe Jacobi and Navi is dead alongside Harper's mother. She is going to kill herself. Taniel is real hardheaded too. Giovanni is going to go on a killing spree. I need part 2 asap. Great Read.

Ooh wee! What a story!
I love the drama and suspense in this story. Jacob and Terry are some horrible people. They have messed their kids up. Hopefully Teniel, Giovanni, Kalief, Navy, and Jacobi turn out for the better.

Good Read
This is my first read by this author, but not my last. Enjoyed it from beginning to end and I couldn't put it down. It was so full of drama and more drama. That ending had my head spinning and can't wait for the next installment. Good job Yasauni.

I loved this book...Harper was of the chain... those hands were definitely certifiable...Nave needs to get it together and I mean fast... but Harper has to give him space...Teniel got on my nerves an he I'm so over her...I think Shakima was just as Genesis stated - grimey

Exhilarating!
Wow. The sins of the mother always weigh down the children. I hope this child is strong enough to carry the weight. Good read thus far.

Great book
I loved the story plot even though I hated the way it ended. I hope book 2 is as good as book 1 was.
