Thugs Need Love 2

Rate this book
With the killing of Noble lingering over Lance's head, all his mind is focused on is revenge. He pushes everyone away, including his beloved son, Jamar. Taking to the streets, Lance has no heart, but he soon realizes this isn't him. Especially when a new person enters his life unexpected. However, Lance soon realizes it's someone close to home that's involved with Noble's murder.

Justice will do any and everything to protect Naomi and his unborn seed, even send them states apart to assure they're safe. Will the distance apart make or break them? With Diamond still his client, Justice can't stand to be around her, but when he finds out what she's been hiding for years, will his heart soften?

Indigo is in love and wants to shout it to the world. With her new man by her side, she feels invincible. The one thing in her life that isn't perfect is her boss/ best friend, Lance. Indigo will do anything to assure Lance is straight, even murder.

Diamond thought her life was over when Justice locked her out their house and after losing her best friend, but God had other plans. When God plants two angels in her life, will she see that she has to make a change? Is Kyson willing to let that happen?

In this sequel, everything isn't what it seems. Follow these thugs down the road of trying to keep the love they found.

Dang Diamond 🤦🏾‍♀️!!

I mean... I guess.
At least Diamond is in therapy. I'm pretty sure that won't matter to Justice. That's a lot of time lost. Malik, I'm guessing 2 options for him. It has to be one or 2 things.

Am I the only one who does not care too much for the Justice and Naomi match 🤔🤷🏾‍♀️🤭😂... It's just boring.
Diamond was loose but crazy. And Justice let his Mom talk about her, Mama's boy. I mean, if you chose someone loose, ride for her, and Mom needs to respect her in HER house period!! That part was too much, then he wanted to switch up, and I was not feeling him on that part. Nor, talking about hurting children.
On to the next. Seen that coming with Kelli.

This book? A straight-up emotional rollercoaster with no seatbelt. Jahquel J had my chest tight, and my jaw dropped.

Lance is spiraling, Justice is protecting his whole family by any means, Indigo’s stressing about her wedding , and Diamond? Sis can’t get it together and needs to heal after losing everything. The drama?? Unmatched. The secrets?? Disrespectful. The plot twists?? Had me irritated.

❤️❤️❤️

Felt a little rushed but overall a good book. Idk why but I don’t like Justice and Naomi together. It feels forced. I also don’t know how I feel about Iasha and Lance. It doesn’t surprise me that Kelli is pregnant either. And what is Malik hiding. I guess I better get to part 3 so it can all get wrapped up

Good read

This was a very good book . but I hop this the last one in the series. I hope Maliki is not doing anything wrong on Indigo. And I hate that Kelli is pregnant for Lance

Great follow up

Still waiting to see what Malik is hiding hopefully it's not something that will hurt Indigo. She is such a rider she deserves to be happy. Lance is a hot mess for getting involved with Kelli and then raw. Really? That is such a no no and with his status he should definitely know better. I know that he was grieving and all but come on. Iasha has some serious considering to do. Naomi and Justice need to get it together. They are such a good fit but all that back and forth is just unnecessary. That's her heart and vice versa they just need to stop being childish, Naomi especially. I'm happy for Violet and Walt they seem to mesh well together too. Can't wait to see what happens when the women find out about these men and their new found children. Need part three like yesterday!

Thug Love

This is a good story. I like a smart thug. I hate when all they do is "get paper". Lance and Justice have other businesses and goals and their women are independent also. They ball seem to be having their own share of troubles. I like how they interact as friends And couples. I was expecting a little more drama though. Something is missing. But I like the characters and am waiting for the next part. Kelli will be a problem and Indigo's man seems sneaky. Will there be some issues between Diamond and Justice now? I gotta see.

Thug Love 2

Lance finally found someone else he can give his heart too. Iasha seems to be a really lovely lady. Naomi and Justice is starting a family now a wonder how they all going to get along knowing Diamond daughter is his. Indigo needs to find out what going on with Malik before they walk down the aisle

This book picked up right where part 1 lefted off. I'm so happy that Naomi & Justice are together. Lance is a loose cannon. My favorite character is definitely Iasha. Iasha she so interesting and definitely a breath of fresh air for Lance. This jaw dropping daughter of Diamonds was a big shocker. Am so ready for part 3.

What....

So, this book was better than the last. To be completely honest it sounds like something I've heard ready. I don't know about the ending either. Didn't we already know that. Well let's see how the next one goes.

Setup

I thought Indigo was supposed t be with Lance. What curve ball is this. I know the characters take you where they want to go but then you should change your synopsis. My time is invested now.....so I'll read part 3...

I really love Jaquell's books

Her stories are so captivating and relatable. I haven't claimed a favorite yet and I'm done with 2 books out of the three. I also love how most of the characters from some other series make an appearance...... happy reading

Great read

Diamond is finally getting herself together but I still don’t really care for her. I’m glad Lance is doing better. I hope Iasha gives him a chance. Can’t wait to read part 3
