Book Review: Secret Service by Brenda L Thomas

Bryce Goodman is a very successful ticket broker, that left Morgan Stanley and opened his own office, much to the chagrin of his ex-fiancé. He loves to secretly watch women…in the most inopportune time. This leads to a weird situationship, that turns everything topsy turvy.

Once again, I enjoyed this Philadelphia based 💎💎💎💎💎book by @livingoutyourdreams. If you are into voyeurism, then this might be the short story for you.

*Book of the Day*

Today’s book is a Ganton Hills Romance by @aubreepynn.

The course of life has no regard for our plans. This was a lesson that Jamis and Kamya learned once their worlds came into orbit. While mending themselves and coming to terms that they aren’t in control of their destiny, will they fight it or give in?

Book Review: The Remnants Love Left Behind by Aubreé Pynn

At first glance, Janis was attracted to Kamya. At second glance, he wanted to get to know her better. By third glance, he had to have her! What’s even better is…she wants him, too!

What I loved about this book is the relationship between Janis and Kamya’s daughter, Kamara. This young lady was hugely disappointed in her biological father, so she was very receptive to the genuine attention that Jamis was giving her.

Unfortunately, I can only give the book 💎💎💎💎, due to minor grammatical errors. I’m looking forward to more visits to the Hills (Ganton Hills, that is). Good job @aubreepynn!

Book Review: Rabbit (The Autobiography of Ms. Pat) by Patricia Williams and Jeannine Amber

Young Patricia Williams aka Rabbit grew up in Atlanta, Georgia surrounded by an family…each with their own issues. As the family begins to fall apart, she is left with a crack addicted mother, who turned a blind eye to her hungry, ill cared for children.

A single mother of two, at the age of fifteen, Rabbit turned to a life of shoplifting, stolen credit cards and eventually selling drugs. Thru it all, she was blessed with angels on earth, that helped mold her into something more than the street life.

I loved the way she took in family members and their children, when she was just a child herself. I was also elated by the fact that she finally found true happiness, which eventually led to life as a stand-up comedienne.

Prior to reading this book, I had no idea of who Ms. Pat was, but now I have a new-found respect for this woman. I also plan to watch her show.

Please do yourself a favor and go pick up this 💎💎💎💎💎book by @comediennemspat. I hope that enjoyed it as much as I did.

*Book of the Day*

Today’s book is a story of struggle to triumph by @comediennemspat.

Born and raised in Atlanta at the height of the crack epidemic, Patricia Williams (aka Ms. Pat) watched as her mother struggled to raise five children on charity, cons, and petty crimes. At age seven, Pat, known as Rabbit, was taught to roll drunks for money. At twelve, she was targeted for sex by an older man. By thirteen, she was pregnant. By fifteen, Pat was a mother of two. Alone at sixteen, Pat was determined to make a better life for her children. But with only an eighth-grade education, she had limited options. She learned quickly that hustling and humor were the only tools she had to survive. Rabbit is an unflinching memoir of cinematic scope, wisdom, and unexpected humor that gives us a rare glimpse of what it’s really like to struggle and thrive in America.

Today’s book is another page Turner from @allisonhobbsbestsellingauthor.

Affairs, deceit, scheming, murder, and sex—it’s all here in this spicy, suspenseful read that will have fans of bestselling author Allison Hobbs both fascinated and disturbed by one hot murderess.

Fiery vixen Silk Moreaux will do anything to get what she wants. Lying, stealing, and even killing don’t weigh on her conscience. But when a prophetess, Big Mama, warns her that she’ll come to a tragic end if she doesn’t change her wicked ways, Silk moves to a small town in Pennsylvania to reinvent herself.

With a sweet, loving, childlike temperament, Silk endears herself to the community—especially the men, who slyly compete for her affection, bearing gifts and offering money for just a little bit of her time. She becomes especially close with grieving widower Raymond Dixon, who expects a hefty insurance payout. When Raymond receives his windfall, Silk rushes him to the altar. But when the money begins to dwindle, she devises a scheme—involving a handsome hustler, Tate Simmons—to ensure that she maintains the comfortable lifestyle she’s become accustomed to. Together, Silk and Tate plot a callous murder that could be their biggest payday ever.

Can Silk’s greed ever be satisfied or will the karmic scale finally tip, resulting in her prophesied destruction?

*Book of the Day*

Silk Moreax was determined to use her womanly ways to get the things that she wants out of life. Raised by a medicine woman, she has been exposed to too much at a young age. Tragedy strikes and she flees to a small town in Pennsylvania. Once there, her conniving ways are brought to the forefront. In the midst of it all, Silk forgets the parting hex of Big Mama.

The overall message conveyed in this book is KARMA. Silk lied, used people and destroyed families without thinking about the aftermath. I think someone failed to tell her that what goes around, comes back around.

Once again, I was blown away by the creative pen of @allisonhobbsbestsellingauthor. This was not at all what I expected, and I couldn’t put it down. I highly recommend this 💎💎💎💎💎book.
