Book Description
Jonessy Price is high on life. Although the death of her father is tragic, it’s a rebirth for the oldest Price daughter. Jonessy steps into her purpose, with her steps turning into strides as she juggles her relationship with Casanova and moving again after her world has remained still for so long. Just as she's settling into the rhythm of her new life, tragedy strikes, and the lives of both the Wildes and Prices are changed forever. The sturdy bond formed between the two families is shattered by a scorned ex playing a clever hand. With his identity rooted in his command over the streets, Casanova is forced to deal with a rebirth of his own, one that might lead him on a path to self-destruction unless he removes the hate in his heart for the woman he loves. In the end, Jonessy has to decide whether she will fight to keep Casanova in her life or move on. On the other side of this love story is the silent Blanc, who shares a face with his twin brother, but not the double life he's been living. On the other side of town is a piece of Blanc unknown to the rest of the world, hidden from view due to one reckless night. Blanc's vow to remain chaste is one of devotion which he plans to carry out until the end of time. What he doesn’t expect is for the turbulent Mali Price to get under his skin. As beautiful as she is seductive, Mali has eyes for Blanc, but after several rebuffs from the oldest Wilde twin, she takes a chance on the charismatic Maciej Hines. Unbeknownst to her, there's a possibility that Maciej possesses a darker side, one responsible for the death of her father. In the second installment of The Lovin’ He Wants the Thuggin’ She Needs, the strength of the Wilde/Price families are tested by outside forces looking to destroy the bond they’ve created through death. New loves are tested by old enemies, unlikely alliances are formed, and in the end a wildcard appears, making the stakes higher than ever.

Book Description
From the age of twelve, Jonessy Price has been the backbone of her family, picking up where her mother left off after walking out on her father seventeen years ago. Unlike most of the women her age, Jonessy is burdened with caring for her mentally handicapped sister, Persia, and hustling up law school tuition for the middle Price, Mali, while running Price Funeral Home. Jonessy isn't content with the life she leads, but she sticks to it because she knows her sisters need her. However, one night and four bullets change her entire family’s dynamic. When tragedy strikes, Jonessy is forced to lean on a trio of infamous family friends, the notorious Damage Wilde and his trigger happy twin brothers, Casanova and Casablanca. What starts as a promise to a loyal friend to keep his daughters safe quickly turns into a love story. With an unorthodox takeover story, the Wilde Brothers have reigned over Brooklyn for over a decade. Their reach spans further than the borough, with solidified relationships throughout the city’s underworld that make them a force to deal with in the financial world. At the helm of the operation is Damage, whose mysterious nature is felt more on the streets than he is seen. Casablanca is a moving shadow, content with being the action behind his brothers’ words. A trap ethicist with a trigger finger as lethal as his heart, Casanova Wilde lives up to his surname, commanding the streets with a presence that the reclusive Damage lacks and picking up the role of mouthpiece that Casablanca has rejected. When Damage proposes they take in the Price Sisters after the murder of their father, Casanova is convinced the trio moving in will make for an uncomfortable living situation. His assumption proves to be right; there’s static between him Jonessy from the jump. What he doesn’t bank on is that static turning into the pursuit of the first woman to ever leave a warm impression on his cold heart. In the midst of Casanova and Jonessy’s love affair is an unknown enemy hiding in plain sight. Leon's death acts as not only the end of life as the Price Sisters know it, but the beginning of a war standing to destroy everything the Wilde Brothers have built.

Book Description
In the days when France was pursuing a vigorous forward policy in Africa, a policy started by General Faidherbe and carried on by subsequent governors, one of the bravest among her pioneer soldiers was Colonel Raoul Le Breton. He was a big, handsome man with a swarthy complexion, coal-black hair and dark, fiery eyes, by nature impetuous and reckless. With a trio of white sergeants and a hundred Senegalese soldiers, he would attempt—and accomplish—things that no man with ten times his following would have attempted. But there came a day when even his luck failed. He left St. Louis, in Senegal, and went upwards to the north-east, intending to pierce the heart of the Sahara. From that expedition, however, he never returned.

Pages : 223
Book Description
Some wounds never heal, and for Jonessy Price, the reemergence of her mother is a unscabbing scar, rejecting time’s insistence that it heals. Though she can woo Mali with old memories and acting as the mother Persia has always desired, Jonessy isn’t moved by Willona Price. However, she has no choice but to rearrange her life for the Price Matriarch. As if dealing with her mother isn’t troublesome enough, Jonessy struggles to become whole after a piece of her was taken away abruptly. She throws herself into taking care of everyone, neglecting herself. The one place she finds solace is in her artwork. Although slow, her healing begins, and just as she makes strides they come to a halt at the possibility that the person responsible for shattering her world is alive, flittering in and out of her life in an unexpected way. Jonessy’s best friend Envy has gone from writing the book baes of her dreams to sleeping with a nameless, faceless one referred to as “Stranger.” What she doesn’t know is that he’s the catalyst for past and future events. Casanova Wilde’s identity has revolved not around his money, the harem of women he once entertained, or even the respect he garners on the street. Without the use of his legs he struggles with being a man, specifically being the man he promised Jonessy Price he would be. No longer the source of affection for most and a threat to the rest, Nova navigates life searching for his purpose, only to find his condition hasn’t changed his circumstances; he has. Refusing to stand in his own way, Casanova Wilde works on returning to full form, which he realizes doesn’t mean reverting to his old ways, simply amplifying the same heartless thug Jonessy fell in love with. As Nova goes on a journey to match his mental and physical, Blanc discovers the detriment to keeping the world on his shoulders. Chaos unfolds as Casablanca Wilde searches for Leon Price’s killers, leaving a path of chaos and destruction. In the midst of it, Blanc learns the cost of being the hero when his loved ones are placed in the line of fire due to his careless mistakes. With no one to turn to, an unlikely ally teams up with the coldest Wilde Brother to complete a story of sex, money, and murder. At the center of the impending war between the Wilde and Hines Brothers is Mali Price, who pays for her sins at every turn. Walking the tight rope between doing the right thing and remaining complacent for the sake of acceptance, Mali has her own traumas to unpack, especially when they threaten the very people who have kept her head above water whenever she was drowning. Will she risk everything to absolve herself of her previous transgressions? Or is it too little, too late?

Book Description
"After watching my mother be beaten in the name of love, I always dreamed of having my own perfect love story void of pain. One where my very own Prince Charming would sweep me off of my feet. And then I met Quade, who showed me that love should be everything but perfect.” Yara Samuels has experienced her fair share of hurt in life. Growing up in a home ridden with domestic violence, Yara was taught at a young age that if it isn’t painful, then it isn’t love. It takes watching her mother be beaten to death by her stepfather for young Yara to learn that love taps shouldn’t send you to the grave. All grown up, she searches for a man who knows how to love a woman with his heart and not his fists. After years of looking, Yara believes that she finds the embodiment of this philosophy in her boyfriend, Amir, until she discovers that while he may provide physical peace, the mental isn’t there. With her sense of self-worth challenged, Yara is content with loving Amir when Quade comes hurtling into her life. The youngest of the infamous Townsend Brothers, Quade isn’t your run-of-the-mill hustler. A walking oxymoron, Quade has a baby face with a heart bred cold courtesy of the streets. Quade has been given the gift of sticky fingers, a trap king philosophy, and a trigger finger that hasn’t missed a target yet. When his aim leads him straight into the path of Yara while in the midst of a hit, Quade's heart melts and he's drawn to the mysterious Yara, who for some reason unbeknownst to him, can't stand him. Never one to back down from a challenge, Quade pursues Yara with the same recklessness that he handles business, and it makes for the start of a memorable love affair. Beneath her expensive clothing and designer handbags, Yara's best friend, Cashmere, is a woman tired of being kept at the expense of her sanity. While putting on a brave face for the world, Cash hides her frustration with her boyfriend behind her Chanel sunglasses. There's nothing picture perfect about the couple, and with each of Vito’s antics worse than the last, Cash finds herself seeking a backup plan in the event that her days of being a hustler’s princess are cut short. When Cash is greeted with an opportunity to secure the bag, she jumps at it immediately and finds herself on the path to becoming the queenpin that the streets have been begging for. What's standing in her way? Savion Townsend. Cash has got it bad for one of the Townsend Brothers, but between forming her own empire and her complicated relationship with Vito, Cash has to decide if she's willing to risk it all in the name of love.

Pages : 271
Book Description
In the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries, cultural, economic, and political changes, as well as increased geographic mobility, placed strains upon British society. But by cultivating friendships and alliances, women worked to socially cohere Britain and its colonies. In the first book-length historical study of female friendship and alliance for the early modern period, Amanda Herbert draws on a series of interlocking microhistorical studies to demonstrate the vitality and importance of bonds formed between British women in the long eighteenth century. She shows that while these alliances were central to women’s lives, they were also instrumental in building the British Atlantic world.
