Cold Blooded: A Hardcore Novel

by The Urban Griot

Omar Tyree -- writing as The Urban Griot -- delivers a thrilling novel about a jaded college girl who when scorned becomes more lethal than the hardened criminal with whom she falls in love. When Janeia Goode, a beautiful undergrad studying psychology at Chicago State University, meets Warren Hamilton, known as Molasses --or Moe for short -- she knows he is dangerous, and yet she finds him to be exciting, mysterious, and undeniably sexy. Janeia realizes that she is a good girl in love with a bad boy -- and she must keep his life as a hit man a secret, or else. Although Moe does reveal to Janeia his life as a paid killer, and she seems to accept it, his skill as a notorious womanizer proves to be his most dangerous habit. After an attempt on Moe's life lands him in an emergency room, he begins to reconsider his many enemies, but he does not take into account the scorned women he has manipulated over the years, up to and including his current love, Janeia. Soon Moe and Janeia are locked in a deadly game ruled by pride, passion, and the desire for love, loyalty, and vengeance. Cold Blooded will thrill readers who are already hooked on Tyree's racy tales of urban reality and romance.

This is very fast to get through and very basic. I have to admit that I expected MUCH more from an author who is as well known as Tyree. I got the distinct impression that he needed or wanted to publish something and didn't have anything..... so he sat down and wrote this.
It's suspenseful - that's the best thing I can say for it. It doesn't suck but it's nothing to get excited over at all. If this is what his others are like won't be wasting my time.
At times this didn't even make any sense, the relationships between the characters I mean. I don't know if Tyree was sniffing something or what but it was almost alien at times.....

I don't really read "street" novels, but did because it was by Omar Tyree. Not too bad. It was a relatively short book. It's about a hit man and his life, and finding love with the right crazy woman who is freaked out by that career choice! Lol. But it's entertaining.

I wish there was a sequel. I would've loved to see where it goes next.
