Yet, no amount of labels, diamonds, or luxurious cars can blind her to the fact that she is very much unhappy. Her constant search for real unconditional love pushes her back into the arms of old heartbreak and leads her down a course of trickery and dishonesty. While struggling with the choice of being comfortable or genuinely happy, trouble is right under her nose and waiting for her to slip. Vic has returned with old problems, but new solutions. She is determined to keep her past from effecting her present, by any means necessary. With a revelation that would shake any woman to her core, will Vic let the truth of her past heal or harm her future? Though Star is serving a fifteen year sentence in Michigan State Women’s Prison, she is still susceptible to the stresses of a free woman. Her past as an escort and hustler have taught her how to survive in prison using her feminine wiles. However, as always, those feminine wiles get her caught up in the most peculiar dilemma. In the end, the biggest question will be, will Star find an answer to this dilemma fast enough to save her life? Join Jessica N. Watkins on the next cycle of this series! Once again, the ladies of Femistry are back with lives that will keep you on the edge of your seat and with an ending that will leave you wanting so much more.

About the author

Author of Urban Chick Lit, Erotica, and Contemporary Urban Fiction... Jessica N. Watkins was born April 1st in Chicago, Illinois. She obtained a Bachelors of Arts with Focus in Psychology from DePaul University and Masters of Applied Professional Studies with focus in Business Administration from the like institution. Working in Hospital Administration for the majority of her career, Watkins has also been an author of fiction literature since the young age of nine. Eventually she used writing as an outlet during her freshmen year of high school as a single parent: “In the third grade I entered a short story contest with a fiction tale of an apple tree that refused to grow despite the efforts of the darling main character. My writing evolved from apple trees to my seventh and eighth grade classmates paying me to read novels I had written about kids our age living the lives our parents wouldn’t dare let us”. At the age of twenty-eight, Watkins’ chronicles have matured into steamy, humorous, and realistic tales of women's literature. She hopes that The Epitome of Femistry series will successfully emulate ideal femininity while tackling stereotypes, familiar heartache, and relatable distress in a humorous, sophisticated, and erotic fashion.

In book seven of the Femistry series, Love Drug by Jessica N. Watkins, roles have changed and consequences have been put into place. Tricey is a mother who always has her daughter’s best interest at heart. Tricey’s problem is that she has become comfortable with being taken care of, but don’t get me wrong, she is loyal to a point to her man. When Tricey’s past enters the picture and starts making demands, Tricey is forced to make a decision.

Victoria is caught off guard when Vince breaks up with her and she is determined to move on. Victoria’s heart is aching but she will not let anything stand in her way of happiness. Victoria soon finds a new hobby that helps her take her mind off of her break up and old habits.

Star is holding her own while serving a 15 year sentence in a women’s prison. Star is a survivor and uses her art of seduction to stay ahead. Star soon realizes that life on the inside is not all that different than life on the outside. When Star finds herself in a new predicament, she will have to think fast to make sure her secret is kept.

Love Drug, like the others in this series, was entertaining, suspenseful and drama filled. These characters seem to be drawn to nothing but trouble and it is a thrill to read. The author has done a wonderful job helping readers connect with the characters. This book did have some minor grammatical errors, but this did not take away from the story. I look forward to the next book.

This series is one that regardless of the reading time elapsed between books, I can always remember the previous & pick up where I left off--due to the memorable characters & great storyline... The girls have each found loves that's proving to be detrimental to their well being...Star, Vic & Tricey are dealing with circumstances that seems to have gone beyond their control. Not much mention of Lyric--which was fine because she's my least favorite character...Overall this series continues to remain one of my favs as I look forward to reading the next part--Bang

Great twist

I am intrigued at the turn of events as Derrick, Devin, and Iyana are really undercover officers....definitely keeps the interest at this point!
