In the sinful world of New Orleans, or as tourists call it, ‘the Big Easy,’ murder, madness, and mayhem slithered through the city that never sleeps. Drugs are transported near and far, city to city and state to state, even country to country, but love was never gained. Real love came with a price, your heart.
Lives lost from drug beefs, infidelity in relationships, and larceny in a lot of hearts. But nothing of what you are about to read could prepare you for the streets of New Orleans.
Grela gave her bonus sons the game but left her only biological daughter in the dark. Selling drugs, trained assassins, gun trading, just to name a few, is what they did. Love wasn’t a part of the equation. Hearts weren’t on the gameboard of chess, or was it?
What happens when matters of the heart are involved? When hearts get broken, and all sanity goes out the window when all you know is kill and how to kill? Change is not a light switch; you can’t just turn the shit on and off.
Take a ride with Endymion, Nemesis, and Zulu as they strap up and take New Orleans by storm physically and emotionally!! Enjoy
In all honesty I'm completely lost in this book and I've read it twice. Maybe I need to read a previous book or something by this author. I'm the the type when I reading I'm trying to piece things together trying to figure out the plot right now I'm lost. The book ain't bad its just that for me something ain't here or.I'm just missing it. Book two maybe🤷🏽♀️ I do what to know how everything to going play out with these crazy name characters but I'm not completely sold on it yet. Time will.tell maybe I need to read this book.for the third time bc I ain't getting Don nothing maybe in Grela
Jazzie, I thought you couldn't top Magnolia baby listen, that dang gone bomb you dropped at the end, what in the entire world? Endymion, Nemesis, and Zulu were brother's that had many demons inside of them. Haileaux, Khenzy, and Jhenga were best friends from forever. Jhenga and Nemesis had their own situation ship that no one understood but them. Zulu held a secret so close that he never thought anyone would love him for him if they found out meeting Haileaux was something that took both of them by surprise, they all came out the hood, the girls each had achieved more than was thought of them. Jhenga and Endymion's situation ship was organized by her mom Grela she and the fellows were partners in business, and Jhenga never questioned her mom motives concerning how she had her make the moves she did. Each couple have begun to peel the layers off their secrets and fears they have with letting each other find all the little things that make them tick. I'm loving these nuts, they are such gentle giants that have found their queens , will love be enough? What is Grela plan ? Will Zulu finally be able to live his life how he wants? Will Haileaux stick and stay? Great Job
I did not want this book to end. I love the way Miss Jazzie write. It's like her characters are telling you a story but also including you in it like they are directly talking to you. I just love it, make me feel like I'm talking to a family member or close friends and they telling me what's been going on in their life. Again I love all these characters but Zulu got a special place with me and I can't wait for him to tell me his story. Dymi is just what Khency needed. She was already self conscious about her skin condition and Kayku didn't make it no better. Even though Dymi got his own demons he's fighting he gonna make sure Khency is always straight and teach her how to love the skin she's in. My toxic two, Nemesis and Jhanga are a mess but I love them and they love each other even tho Nemesis has dog tendencies. But the nicca really crazy with his murder suicide solutions. Zulu got a special place with me and I believe Hails won't let him down at least I hope she won't. Although I got a notion of how Magnolia play into all this, there's a lot more to the story and I'm here for ALL OF IT.💟💟
One thing I love about this book is how the Author chose to make the characters have real life flaws. JHenga is deaf, Haileaux body is completely freckled with her hair being the color of carrot top, and Khency has vitiligo. I was glad to read about characters who you can relate to realistically. JHenga and Nemesis are toxic. I seriously was laughing at those too but Nemesis is broken. He has some demon's he's battling which keeps him from knowing how to love JHenga properly. It wasn't hard at all to figure out Zulu secret and I knew that Haileaux would be able to love him and look pass his imperfections. Khency finding about Kayku came in time. He wasn't for her. Endymion was the person I knew that would love her with his whole heart while teaching her to not hide herself but to embrace it. Endymion, Nemesis and, Zulu are not wrapped too tight. They are on the crazy side. What Grela was hiding from them and Khency had my mouth dropping at the end. The other family they were meeting with. Is just as crazy and nuttier as them. I can't wait for the second part.
Whew lawd!!! The Krewe of Endymion is sumn else. Dymi is the overprotective big brother that makes sure errbody str8. He is a boss in his own rights. Nemesis is the wild child fighting demons from his past. Those same demons may cause him to fuk over the very person that is able to help him heal! Zulu the baby of the bunch and introvert. His secrets keep him from finding true love and has both his head and heart fighting a never-ending battle. Khenzy is the odd girl; self conscious bc of her skin condition. Jhenga the firecracker!! This child got more screws loose than her better half. Haileaux def the cool laid back friend. These couples and the surprises in this cliffhanger def bout to show out in Cali, NOLA style. The family secrets are either gonna make this crew stronger or break them to their core. 💜💜💜
OMGeeee! This book was invigorating! Where do I start? Endyimon (Dymi the Don) and Khency (Kizzy) what a match together! Nemesis (Chu Chu) and Zhenga (Poochy) are firecrackers together! Zulu (ZuBae) and Halieaux (Haze) are a match made in heaven. I loved how the three brothers never allowed each other to deal with any outside grief alone they were ten toes down for each other. I loved how the girls were able to love and accept them for what and who they were. One thing for sho' and two things for certain it's getting ready to be some smoke in the city with Magnolia and Jahare' being on the scene. Can't wait for book 2 to drop! Anxiety is at an all time high.
I so fell in love with these characters omg and love me some Zulu and Endymion just love their names by the way and I was so heartbroken at the beginning for what they went through with losing their parents…Now let me get on ms Jhenga I understand why she was upset with Nemesis but spitting on that man was just nasty to me I would have just beat his behind then spit on him like a child 🤦🏾♀️ now that ending I have not seen that coming and I can’t wait to read part two but I really enjoy it to the fullest thank you for introducing these amazing characters to us #TeamEndy andKhy 🥰🥰
This is far the best book I have ever read Miss Jazzie you have done your thing girl I have really fell in love with the characters…I love me some Zulu and Endymion their names definitely fits them lol and Nemesis he really needs to get it together he got a good woman that is behind him but he gon end up losing her to another man if he I mean I get it that he been through so much at a young age but theirs no excuses for hurting the ones that love you and really down for you now as for Jhengi she know she wrong for spitting on that man I was like omg no she didn’t do that girl I scream 😭 all I’m gon say is I can’t wait to part 2 and I love Endymion and Khency relationship cute couple alert 🥰
I’m a little biased by Miss Jazzie, I love her name so I read a lot of her stuff. But I’m going to keep it all honest…
What attracts me to Miss Jazzie is her unique characters. Her body positivity is everything. Being “Zebra Print Thick” is my identity and the fact that Miss Jazzie writes on it makes reading her content easy.
This is not my favorite by this writer but I’ve got hope that the rest of the series will be better. The introduction of characters from “A NOLA Boss Saved Me” has me ready to for the next book in series.
I’m giving this book a 3 because hopefully it gets better and I have faith that it will.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
While the writer gives us a story riddled with mystery, we get a kook at the leading cast and its a dozy! Thus story is centered around some old secrets and some new ones that are going to come to light. I love that our Krewe is not street savvy but book smart as well,I jyst wish we had just a little tone down on the gangster from the women.I love the issues that are being dealt with by the group and I must say they are handling things and addressing them like old married people. This was a well thought story and moves at a pace where there isn't any down time. Hope it doesn't take long for the next episode.
Dymi the Don, Nemesis and Zulu are nothing nice and what they endured as kids really put them in a place where they are guarded, non-committal, psychotic at times but love their family! Each one has their own secret and sharing with their ladies , but at what cost? Their ladies Kizzy, Hazel and Jengha have it going on. They all know they have some good guys who love extremely hard. Dymi is partners with Grela who is as ruthless as him and when she makes him an offer he cannot refuse he happily takes it. Grela is looking at retiring and when the crew and their ladies take a trip to Cali everything will fall into place all thanks to Grela!
Baby…here go these parents with these secrets. I knew Grela was going to bring out something big when they got to California. I cannot wait to see how all of this is going to play out!!!! She bringing my man Magnolia back into this with Jahare’, Endymion, Zulu, & Nemesis. I know it’s about to be some stuff. And with the girls. I can’t wait to see what’s going to happen! I need part 2 right now!!! Because the secrets that came out from the brothers were enough. And now I gotta wait to see what else is going to be revealed….🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Fire and this isn’t for show the enter story had me gone. I’m not going tell it all but what I will say is Jazzie you had my stomach crunchy lord help me cause Nemesis & Jhenga are crazy the spit in the face. I knew it was a wrap 😂😂. Zulu didn’t see it coming lol read people and now Endymion is with Khency it’s a lot to be some mess indeed cause you had to Bring Magnolia and the Gang at the end wow u bring the heat with this series CANT choice right now until I read part 2🔥outstanding
I didn’t think it could get any better than Magnolia! But baby I could be wrong! Jazzie know she was dead wrong for giving me baes it’s hard to choose from. But I think I’m going with Endy! It’s something about the way he handles her! But speaks life into at the same time! Like yes zaddy! And talk about a plot twist! I’m still trying to pick my jaw up off the floor! She most definitely has some explaining to do! Thien she done brung in Him! Oh yes I’m going to need part to like this week! Play entirely to much! Sensational !
You dropped that bomb that i didn't see coming. Haze is my girl and she was team Zulu no matter what and that made him love her more. Jhenga and Nemesis is two kinds of crazy which is unmatched. But they're perfect for each other. Lady Bug and Endymion had me awe. He loved her no matter what the skin she was. There was so many secrets being told and so many to surface. With Magnolia and Jahere in the picture i don't think I'm ready for this blow up. Great Job‼️‼️‼️
Lots of characters in this book. These brothers have gone through their own separate mental issues. You have a level head, a extremely hot temper and a sensitive one. They've lived in a very abusive environment when they were young boys. Dymi made sure all of them had a good education. Each of these brothers found women who loved them with all their flaw because they also had flaws they were struggling with themselves. As I read this story, there was one surprise I was not expecting. There's some parts of the story I'm not understanding and hoping the 2nd book will give me clarity.
What a web we weave! ... I that zulu confession left my jaw hanging. I wonder what other secrets about to be exposed with the way magnolia spilled the beans. I can't wait to read what happens in part 2. All of the characters in this books is crazy as hell. This book caught and kept my attention from beginning to end in the midst of a love story. There was drama. Great read
This book held my attention from the beginning to end it will keep you at the edge of your seat wanting to see what happens next Zulu, Endymion & Nemesis are brother they all have childhood trauma & secrets but will they be able to heal from it all & learn to love & be loved I can't wait to read part 2 to see how it all plays out I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who's looking for a five star read
This book was good from beginning to end. Held my attention and I couldn't put it down. Its so many secrets with the twist and turns, that kept me wondering what's happening next. Enjoying the storyline and these characters are something else. I'm loving all their vibes and chemistry together, they're exactly what each other needs. Now, with that ending, I can't wait to see what happens next. Great job Miss Jazzie.
Y'all bout to stop doing me like this. Soon as the book gets extra interesting y'all end the shit. Now I gotta wait for part 2. So we already know that the Krewe is crazy. So now they bout to hook up with Mason Boys. Shit bout to be kitty. Once again you did that Miss Jazzie. I've yet to be disappointed with any of your books. Keep it up Lady. You have a fan for life!!!!
This story is the epitome of if you thought you knew, then think again in a good way
The secrets, spontaneous sex scenes, the brotherhood and sisterhood better the brothers and the girls, and wondering what will happen next will leave you glued to this story. I'm ready to see what part 2 brings, because the last two chapters will have your mouth on the floor and wondering what will come to light next
I see this series is gonna be lit. My girls had hooked up with some fine brothers. So all of this confusion going on got me hype for book 2 to see their outcome. And lady bug mom always got something up her sleeve. U did good on yet another book and I’m looking forward to reading more of them. Sitting here patting my feet while sipping on Pepsi and eating popcorn while waiting on the next book to read
Man on man this is soooo juicey, nemises was a girl magnolia is kencey brother best friends
With the same baby daddy who passed away everybody is bout to be one big family hope all goes well without any problems too big they can't get pass love all the characters that girl theies was a scank how u got a husband but ask your side dude for a baby when you knew u was married and pregnant by your husband everybody need to get this series
Ok I wasn’t ready when I got to the end of this book (Zulu). I know it’s gonna be explained but I needs more lol. Loved all the characters. Loved how The Don told Khen how he felt towards her skin. I can’t wait till book 2 to find out what these two families bout to get into!!!
I can’t wait to read book 2 because things are about to get real interesting. The brothers had their share of secrets just like the ladies had their own issues. I was shocked by something’s that came out because I honestly would have never guessed. Mixing the old crew with the new crew is about to be real funny!
My oh my…. Where to begin!? I’m in love with the Krewe!!! They handle business and when they love, they love HARD! Can’t wait to see what’s in store in part 2 knowing they’re linking up with my other favorite crew!! It’s going to be interesting if nothing else!! Zulu is definitely my favorite out of them all though.
This book was good that was definitely a shocker with Zulu I can imagine haze face when she found out what she was messing with..endymion is a trip for the demands they had to make to be married and make her his that fast he better be lucky she fell for it fast..definitely enjoyed the read
This book was good from the beginning to the end. I hope khenzy embrace her vitiligo. Nemesis and jhenga are crazy they belong together. Zulu and halieaux when Zulu said he was a girl I was no way.khenzy and endymion are my favorite couple in this book.i can't wait to read part two.
Jazzie you did the darn thing with this book. It was great from beginning to end. I absolutely loved it. I'm loving the guys and girls. Zulu secret blew my mind, I wasn't expecting that. I definitely wasn't expecting that ending. This is most definitely a must read. I can't wait to read part 2...
Damn what the help is going on here seems like all of the brothers and Grela got some secrets. I know the nxt part is gonna be filled with drama all around bc it too many secrets, that's why I can't wait to read part 2 to see what's gonna happen when everything is out in the open
