My Review
Love Betrayal & Dirty Money 2 was a rollercoaster ride of
suspense, action & great drama. This finale kept me intrigued til the very
last page. I truly did not want this story to end. Some of the characters I
felt for, but for some, I hated with a passion. El Loco was my least favorite
person. Him & his daughter Kimmie, got on my nerves. Rhianne appeared to be
the most innocent character in this whole book. Rodney & Ray were both just
sick, despicable bastards that deserved everything they received. All in all,
this was a great read. I'd love to see a Book 3 or a Spin-Off in the making
(hint, hint).
The betrayal exposed within this story between all the characters
& how they were connected or crossed paths, was well written & flowed
nicely. All the lies, secrets & disloyalty that took place showed just how
much those actions can tear down families & destroy people's lives. It's
sad how the drug game, love, greed & the need for money, power &
respect can turn people into complete monsters & people's world upside
down.
Great job Tysha, Ari, Quiana, Fatima & Regina! I loved this
Anthology!

Love
Betrayal & Dirty Money: A Hood Romance (Book 1)
Raymond Simmons, is a cheating, no-good thug who couldn't be faithful to
his longtime girlfriend, Tia, if his life depended on it. Just when Ray swears
off all outside chicks, he meets a sexy bombshell named Nisha, and his
born-again monogamy goes out the window. When he realizes he's gotten in too
deep with Nisha, he tries to clean up his messy life before he loses Tia for
good. Unfortunately, it's a little too late, and when Tia goes searching for
answers of her own, the streets of Houston will overflow with a bloody
vengeance.
When
Nisha's honeymoon dreams fizzle and she sees Ray's true colors, she treks her
way toward a fresh start in LA, where she meets a smooth talking
pimp-in-disguise named Mack. Her lustful desire quickly works against her as
she finds herself caught in between Mack and Major, two sworn enemies.
Major
has big plans for a brutal revenge after the death of his sister, but what will
happen once Mack unleashes his own plans of retribution? Lucci, a native New
Yorker, is happy to answer the call of duty when Mack calls in a favor. Little
does he know, his loyalty to Mack will face the ultimate test when El Loco, one
of the biggest bosses of the East and South coast, gives him an ultimatum.
Kimmie,
the exotically beautiful daughter of El Loco, has her own plans for testing the
bonds of Lucci and Mack's friendship as she draws them into her dangerous
triangle of lust. Blinded by her own desire, Kimmie commits the ultimate
betrayal against her father, leaving her no other option to flee NY for the
southern allure of Atlanta. Always a slave to desire, Kimmie quickly slips into
a deadly affair with DeJuan, a smooth-talking, Bentley-driving pimp and
hustler- turned pastor. Just as DeJuan gets knee-deep in her "heavenly
essence," his wife, Sasha makes a move to secure her spot as the last
woman standing.
When
El Loco receives word of the transgressions against his daughter, he unleashes
an angel of death on all involved- and anyone else that gets in his way. Just
as his vengeance is in full swing, he comes face-to-face with a forgotten seed
planted long ago, and has to decide which piece of him is most worth saving.
Will El Loco's reign come to an end when he turns his attention to collecting
on a blood debt?
