http://www.romancenoveljunkies.com for readers

BRIEF SUMMARY

Raven grew up the princess of Flint, MI. With her father being Benjamin Atkins, no one touched her, until her path crosses with Mizan, an up and coming hustler. Mizan manipulates everything around him to get what he wants and what he wants is Raven and her father’s thorn as the top kingpin in Flint.

THOUGHTS

A great novel, but I cringe and detest the ending because selfishly it’s not what I wanted....more

(3.5)Raven lives a sheltered life, which I think her downfall b/c she doesn’t see how manipulating Mizan is towards her. Raven is the daughter of a kingpin; she gets everything she wants w/out even asking. Her father soft on her b/c she is his first born. He tries to convince her Mizan is bad news, he knows he trouble from the start, but Raven won’t listen and gets sucked into his manipulating ways.

Mizan wants to be on top, where Raven’s father is now and he’ll do anything to get the...more

This was a really decent read. In the beginning, it kind of put me in the mind of The Coldest Winter Ever with a little twist. I'm really picky about reading books that have errors in them and this book had quite a few. I was able to ignor them in the beginning, but towards the end, I was frustrated. There weren't many, but after building up, I just got a little annoyed (that's just me though). With all the things Raven went thru with Mizan, I surprisingly didn't find myself judging her for her ...more

Playing with fire you’re sure to get burned.
A Street novel! Moth to a Flame was exactly that, but this book was more than just a story of the ups and downs and wrong turns of a young girl who had it all. I, like so many other teenagers can relate to this book. It had so many heated moments from the beginning it was filled with page turning detail and never ending drama. New York Times bestselling author Ashley Antoinette captured all the obstac...more

Wow this book was phenomenal. From beginning to end it held my interest. I am so very sad though the way it ended. It seemed Raven never had a full chance at life. It's like her life was stolen at such a young age. It goes to show you how you precious life can be stolen by one wrong decision. So many women get themselves caught in that same trap, they get infatuated by one guy and he turns out to be the devil. I really would have liked it to have ended much happier but hey, it was awesome still....more

I have read every Ashley and Jaquavis book to date, and I always find them to be a very good read. I also read this book in less than 2 days and found myself getting caught up in Raven's love affair...I was SOOOOOO rooting for her and Ethic! The reason why i rated it a 3 is because I felt this book had the same ending as Dirty Money, one of their first books. If I would not have already read the other book, I'm sure I would have given this book a higher rating.

Finish this book in two days. It was so Good! but of course it was, It's by Ashley, and her& JaQuavis books are off the chain and If you haven't starting reading any of there books then you are seriously missing out!:) "Get on top of your Reading Game"...

Mizan was Evil as any low-down dirty man could get, Raven like most young "in love dumb girls" had to find out the hard way.
Zaneta Powell
i loved loved loved this book. i would give it 10 stars if they were available. its about a young girl named Raven who feel like shes shes grown and wants to make grown up decisions about what she thinks is love . These decisions that may cause alot of hurt and grieve to more than herself. will she ever grow up and realize that what true love is?

I started this book and then had to put it down and wait a couple of days and begin reading it again. Raven Is the daughter of a kingpin. She asks for nothing. She has everything she could every ask for.That is until she meets Mizan. Mizan is the stick up kid who wants Raven's Father's place. Raven's actions prove to be the answer to Mizans wants. While the book was good and quick to read, i hate books where the characters do not show any growth. I wanted to shake her and say "GET A GRIP!"...more

All young women should read this novel. I believe it is the best work Ashley Snell has written to date. I am a fan of all her works and I believe this is her best independent work.

Chandra
This book was good, but also sad. Here I was thinking that no one could ever compare to Carter in the Cartel.I was wrong......Ethic was so appealing to me and attractive! Even with the way the described him after the accident, I was still loving him. I loved his character he was laid back, not flashy! Enjoyed it!

I love everything she writes but it was hard to get into Raven the main character because she was truly the dumbest girl I have ever read about. It was a lot of valuable lessons in the book. I suggest every young girl read this book.
Cheryll
I haven't finished the book yet but..............OH MY GOD!!!!! This book is the best I've read all year.( i know that the year just got started.:)
Ashley Antoinette Snell is quickly taking over the book game.
Later for the REAL review.

Mizan was a complete asshole from the beginning. Raven was too rebellious and naive and stupid to notice anything. Ethic was the bomb diggity. Nikki, poor thing.
