Excerpt:
Princess
“Shut the fuck up bitch!” I went off, grabbed the gun from Daren and pointed it in Mira's face. “You just don’t know what the fuck I went through keeping that shit from you! I lost fucking sleep and weight over that shit! You know how I feel about bein’ thick bitch! I ain’t never want to be skinny! I cared about Ace and I fuckin’ loved you! That crazy ass mufucka was there to kill me and Tre! I was wrong to keep it from you, but I’m damn glad my man saved my life that night! If he hadn’t neither of us would be here. Your brother would be here of course, but I guess that’s all your selfish ass wants. Tre wouldn’t have ever killed him over me! He didn’t even know about us! Fuck this shit! If I turn you in I don’t trust that you won’t tell the police about what happened to Ace. I’m not stupid. I know that there is no statute of limitations on murder. I can’t chance that shit!”

Juicy!
I have learned over the years that there are other perceptions besides your own. With that being said, I can't make people agree with me. But I really thought that Yanna should have been the one to grovel to get back in Ablos good graces. I mean she did sleep with the enemy that could have potentially been her baby daddy! Yeah I know he cheated a million times, but cheating with enemy damn!!!!

Great saga
I didn't like yanna or darren in this part of the saga..they started too much drama for no reason..i loved that they did get happy endings..it seems like the drama doesn't stop with these characters and those affiliated with them..they should be exhausted..i guess i'll check out part 6..good saga overall

Book Review: Nika Michelle's Forbidden Fruit Series
I'm reviewing the entire series due to my eagerly turning the last page in one book and immediately turning the first page in another! I just could not stop myself long enough to write reviews in between so I will be posting this review for each book in the entire series! Forbidden Fruit was the first piece of work I had the opportunity to read by this author and I enjoyed it so much until I breezed through all five books in less than a weeks time! Nika Michelle is the real deal! I cannot believe I had her books all this time and had never cracked the cover and now I see I have been cheating myself because this was the first time I actually sat down and breezed through an entire series back to back in one swoop in a very long time! She took no time pulling me into this story immediately and I could not stop until I was finished! When I initially started reading, I had no idea this was a series until I got to the end of book one and then I had to know what was happening next, so I eagerly jumped into the other books in the series! She picked up each installment right where the other left off, so she did not miss a beat with the flow of the story!
The bonds and loyalties between the friends in this story were unbreakable! The one thing I really liked about this series was the fact that she left no loose ends dangling at the end! The men were true soldiers, loyal to their ladies and their friends and would do anything to protect them and their families by any and all means necessary! The ladies proved they could be just as deadly if you decided to threaten them and all they held near and dear! The ladies added a new meaning to the term ride or die as they had their men's back when they were young and continued to hold them down as they became older! As they grew older and had children their views changed and the life of fast money, glam and danger were no longer appealing! As the the climate became more dangerous, everyone scrambled to mitigate the damages and threats. If anyone could be considered an imminent threat to their safety and security in the future, they were dealt with in the present no matter who they were or how much love was out there! Family always came first! When we speak of family, many folks think of biological, however, these friends forged bonds and friendships closer than those coming from the same womb! When they loved, they loved hard! When they engaged in battle, they fought hard and together! Always having each other's back! Loyalty was indeed a must! When loyalty does come into question, anger and dismissal are the first courses of action, until those affected had a chance to digest the entire situation and realize, you cannot just turn love on and off like a water faucet! True love will always prevail if it is true, so when mistakes where made, it took a minute but all was eventually worked out and forgiven! I could actually go on and on and break this story down even further and then you will be reading my novel on a novel, so I will end by saying, I really enjoyed this is a series I believe you would definitely enjoy reading it as well.
This was definitely a five star read, so if you have not read any of this author's work let me introduce you to the author Nika Michelle!

SForbidden Fruit 5
Some books aren't meant to go on and on and on. Forbidden Fruit 3 should been the last story. I wish I could get my money back. I found the story boring and a complete waste of my money. Excessive killing did not work. Too much. Even my boy Tre couldn't save this. The only good part was Blo coming to his senses. If you want to read up on the old Crew, this is definitely recommended. Other than that, Not.

Happy Endings!!!
This book was a great ending to the F.F. saga. To see our our beloved characters grow and change over time was amazing. Nika Michelle once again has written an excellent book, this author has shown such growth since this story began. This is a creative genesis at work, can't wait to read Zy and Mackie's story....just let us know about Ablo and Yanna. Congrats on another 5 star novel!!!!

Great ending to the FF saga. I'm sad to see it go!
Some tough choices were made in Forbidden Fruit 5. Friendships were ended and relationships were tested. I'm glad that Diablo finally opened his heart and expressed his undying love for Yanna. He made fall for him all over again even though he made me mad in FF4. I really hated how things ended with Mira and who knew Tati was looney after all? I definitely enjoyed this book and look forward to reading more from Nika Michelle!
