Captured By A Street King's Love: An African American Romance

Rate this book
From new author Myeisha Newton comes an enthralling, pipping hot, new urban romance series. The drama filled novel, Captured By A Street King's Love, will have you hooked from the first page until the last. Tahirah Dorsey is a typical example of what it is to be a good girl, a golden child. Her whole life she was always sheltered by her parents. Yet, she always knew exactly what it was they was trying to shelter her away from. During her rebellious and sneaky teen phase, she fell in love with Jirani McKnight. Well, what she believed to be love at the time. But when it comes to this thing called first love, first heartbreak shortly follows. Heartbroken and devastated, Tahirah tried her hardest to keep her head held high — remembering, she still has a bright future ahead of her.   As fate tends to work, Tahirah ends up crossing paths with the one and only Jagger McKnight. Who she learned is one of Jirani’s older brothers that she didn’t even know he had. To make matters worse, Jagger is known to be a powerful man within the drug world. Tahirah was raised to stay away from men like him. Especially with her parents both having careers centered around law and order.   A spark between them happened so effortlessly, but it’s a spark that in no possible way should ignite. Jagger and Tahirah know they shouldn’t fall for one another. It’s a line to not be crossed, yet, it does not stop them from crossing it. A deep connection forms between one another, and before they know it, they are in love. It becomes unbearable for them not to act upon it. Once spark, now turned into a strong burning fire.   Jagger McKnight made a decision to part ways from the lifestyle he’s known his whole life. However, when a very tragic event occurs, he's forced to make a choice. A choice that could jeopardize the relationship he has with Tahirah. These two will be tested beyond measure from those that are against them.   Will Tahirah risk it all? Throwing away her bright future to take on a life that she never dreamed of having — for the man of her dreams and the one she’s helplessly in love with. Or Will Jagger conclude on his own that the real love Tahirah is giving, he’s far from deserving, and that she deserves better of a man than he could ever be?

Standing Ovation

This book so good I want to read it again. Jezek is a bish nicca. The way he did Nayeli was uncalled for. I glad he was killed before the truth came out about the baby. The way he did his baby brothers was messed up. Everyone that lost their life the blame rest in his, Bonita and Angela's hands. I don't know were Angela got her mothering skills from but she should try again. I literally cried when she jumped on Tahirah. Not to mention what she knew was happening to Nay by her own brother. She is just plain evil and I can't wait till her cookie crumbles. I kinda feel bad for Jarani because I believe he did love her but he was trying to protect her from Jezek. Maybe if he'd been honest with her from the start things would have been different. I love Jagger and so does Tahirah. I hate that he got caught up but when he finds out Nayeli and Tahirah are hurt all hell gonna break loose. I don't know how to feel about Zinnia right now but I do hope she gets them to some help before it's to late.💞💞

I need more!!!!!!!!!

Not gonna lie at first I couldn't get into this book. I hate when I'm reading and it feels like someone is reading to me I need that feel as if I'm actually a character in the book but I'm glad that I kept reading tho bc now I'm left With my anxiety acting up and needing more.. I hope Tahirah bosses up and shows her mom/Angela she choose the wrong person to play with. I don't like this b!tch/Angela at all. I don't want to give the book away with my review so I'm going to leave at this. Myeisha Newton come with all the drama in the next installment yes its sweet and nice to read about Jagger and Tahirah but I'm not completely sold on Zinna being a true friend just yet and then there's Bonita old underhanded butt 🙄🙄🙄

I can't really say what I want without posting any spoilers but I will say one click and takes this ride in the streets of Philly!!!

Good Read

This is a new author for me it was a good read. I was expecting a little more drama but it was good a lot of good jewels was dropped for young love. Tahirah momma was a real B. I can't believe what she did . Nayeli just needed to love her self more she been through so much . That oldest brother was just evil he needs to let go some skeletons. The poor other two brothers was just trying to live their life. Dennis I was so disappointed in . she new who her family was and she went against it all SMH. Jag was Bae I loved him he had Trump loyalty.

Tahirah was wrong for dealing with brothers, but the heart wants what it wants. Jirani just wasn’t the man for her. Jagger made her heart flutter.
Her evil mammy Angela makes he sick. I hope she gets everything coming to her. She thinks being a commissioner gives her access to treat people any way she wants. It’s time to knock her off of her high horse once and for all. I want Tahirah and Nayeli to do it while helping Jagger with his situation.

This book was a true definition of how love can be so wrong but feels and is real! This story pulls all your emotions out of you. You don’t know if you want to fight or cry! This book is one of the best love stories I have read in a while! I definitely need a Jagger in my life! If you want to read a story about Love,Deception and Jealousy this is the book for you to read!

Fire

This book is a great read. It is filled with so much drama. I love Jagger. He is a true babe! Jezek was straight stupid. Angela is the worst mother of the Year. I wouldn't be surprised if Jezek is still alive and working with Angela. I hate Jirani feels like Jagger is dead to him. He should have been a respectful young man when he was with Tayriah.I hate Jahzeel lost his life. I can't wait for part 2. Great job!!

Interesting read

Jagger and tahirah have a long road ahead of them! With all the possible enemies against them, there is one that I'm praying isn't on that list!! I can't wait until Angelas world comes crashing down. Tahirah already read her like an open book 😂 Lets hope everything goes the way tahirah has it planned in her head, because that ending says otherwise 😔

Good read

Slow start but when I tell you that this book turned out to be everything! Tahirah was naive in some aspects but was so mature in others. Jagger got a prize with her. Angela need her head checked! No mother should feel or do the things she has done. Zinnia was full of surprises. M. Newton great job

Just Tired

I like reading your books but I had enough of your unfinished endings. If your going to end you stories like this and having to wait for the
next book to continue the story,. This is the second book I read by this author and I dislike that she never finish her books with a follow-up to a conclusion. She has left the book unsatisfied to want to read.

OUTSTANDING

This was one heck of a story. It had so my twists and turns. It had some thought evoking moments. Past rejections can ruins so many lives. I know I had to have visuals, so I played music from the story, researched clothing. Man, I was living in the moment with these characters. Great, Great Great!!!
