You Can Only Get This Feeling From A Thug

Rate this book
True love hits different when it's coming from an enemy.

The biggest mistake in Lah’s life was sleeping with the enemy. Love is not in her plans, but it somehow found her, and not in the right place.

Young and on top of her game, Marlah also known as Lah is known for her love for her gang and business. Early in her twenties, Lah came up on a product nobody could touch, causing her to start an empire that she knows she can’t run on her own, but who can she trust?

Joseph is the man in his neighborhood, but he wears his heart on his sleeve behind closed doors. With getting money and trying to find a solid connect, he falls in love, but the woman he loves is his enemy.

Love in the fast lane is a thrill and it is deadly. But will it be a gift or a curse for Marlah and Joseph?

Man, Listen

Ace is in his feelings. He's hurt, bitter and jealous. He already took the Rolex back from Cari. Dejuan ain't do anything to Ace, but Dejuan can't die he has to get Ace back. Rich twins are hilarious, they don't have any filter. Rich has come along way too. I want to see if he's going stay true to his word and marry Chanel. MarLah is going to have big lawsuit. I want Dejuan to survive because I want to see him and Cari make it. Kesha changed her mind real quick about Rich, he caught her looking while he was sexing Chanel. Jo is a changed for his daughter and when his wife comes home.

Chile, listen 🔥

Oh my God. Normally I have my picks of liking certain characters but baby Jo, Lah, Cari, Dejuan and Rich. They all have a unique thing about them I love it. I love when the author can take me on a emotional roller coaster because I can tell they took their time writing. I’m ready for the next book.

This story had me hooked from page one! I thought Marlah was going to work my nerves but she ended up being my favorite and so did Jo-Ru. From the gate I thought he was gone turn snake but he wound up being one of the realest. I was rooting for Jo and Lah and I still am. DeJuan disappointed me with how he did Cari but she was reckless about how she chose to do her get back. I can't wait for Part 2. Robin's pen never disappoints.

What in the world

Lah needs to sue majorly. She was wrong for playing with Jo's feelings like that. She was and is in love with him. I'm glad they got Jo out of prison. Promise deserves to be with one of her parents. I want to know who snitched on her tho. Carlos could have done it. Kita should have let go and moved on with her life but nope. Death met her. Justice was dumb for playing with her life like that all because a man doesn't want you. Chanel and Rich need to watch Kesha silly behind. I already know who shot Dejuan. Cari shouldn't have been playing around either. Next part.

Jo and Lah are officially one of my favorite couples!!

Lah and Jo are everything for me!! True epitome of till death do us part and unconditional love for one another. Seeing the crew together and hearing from everyone involved makes you want to root for everyone to win and overcome all the problems that are coming their way, even if a few brought it on themselves. I was hooked from the first page to the cliffhanger at the end. I'm excited for what book 2 will bring because I need to know what's gonna happen next!!

Enjoyed it I can’t wait for the next part to drop!

This was definitely a good read. I did not see that ending coming though I can’t wait for the next part to drop!
Marlah and Joseph had me going for a minute I am glad they finally got it together in the end. I just hope everything works out for the best with them!
Rich is a straight fool but you gotta love him he goes hard for his people and holds them down but he is a straight up hoe lol.
Cari little situation has done the unthinkable instead of taking the L from her moving on and trying to be happy in her relationship I can’t wait until he gets what’s coming to him!!
Poor Dejuan after he decided to get himself together by getting therapy and asking Cari to be his wife the unthinkable happens hopefully he is ok!

Review

Two members from different gangs-both in the drug game - in love. Thanks to a hateful ex, they spent several years behind bars. The story focuses on the measures their friends took for them to be reunited. Most of the action was fast forwarded due to time jumps. I can't say that I really have a clear idea of who the characters are necessarily . There is very little chemistry between the couples . I think that is because we don't really see or did not get to experience their relationships grow . We were only told of them through individual monologues . So far the story is okay and 'm interested enough to see how things end.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

This book picked up right where things left off in Wrappin’ up the New Year With a Thug. Lah is still giving Jo a hard time about being in a relationship and Jo is determined to make Lah his wife before the baby comes. Once Lah & Jo decide to make things official, a bitter ex seeks revenge.

I can’t wait for the next book though. I loved everything about it and I can’t believe that Ace did that to DeJuan though all because he couldn’t take Cari ending things. I want Marlah home with her family. You did that with this book.

Gangster love click

This book is amazing, Jo had a real one. His wife handles business like a real G and his boy Rich and her dad helps with this business m. However it’s always a jealous one causing problems. Snakes everywhere but I’m positive they want keep striking
