Mad

I am so mad on how the book ended. I know you have to have a cliffhanger ughhhh. The girls loved their thugs and kept giving them chance after chance. Bishop seemed as if we was different and can’t wait to see what happens with him TJ and Bangga.

Ummm

I honestly don't know what to say or where to even begin! This book, IN MY OWN OPINION, had soooo much potential but it was poorly written. Vague and rushed when details were needed and slow and drawn out on parts that should have less detail. The writing style was a bit confusing but u was able to keep track of what was going on. I don't know if the authors all picked a character and decided to tell the stories how they seen fit! I WILL read part 2 just to see where the series goes. I just hope the editing and storytelling gets better.

Wow

These guys are so damn ratchet its crazy. Being a thug is one thing, bring a hoe assed thug is another. That's exactly what these dummies were. I loved the leading ladies and the tight bond they had with each other. They held each other down regardless of the situation unlike the women you normally see backstabbing, lying, and hating on each other. Hope the guys grow up and that the ladies continue to be there for each other.

This book was hella good.It had me on the edge of my seat.It was drama filled on every page.The couples were so cute.Bangga and Amora were my favorite I think,I feel so bad for the drama they went thru and wat her family did to her.Then Shanice and Money were next,they went thru a lot too but I'm glad that everything was getting worked out for them.Then Jaecia and TJ were also cute that ending was hella cray to me I can't wait for part two that can't be the end of TJ

Thug Love

Amora, Shan, & Jae they went through a lot together. Jae needed a mother figure and she wasn't their for her. Amora had a mother but put a man before her child. Shan just wanted to be loved. Money, Bangga, & Tj need to realize when a woman feed up she is done with that bullshit

Every Girl Need a Thug

Huh? Good God... that's the ultimate, family love is a virtue , then there's money. Now, that dollar shouldn't have changed my man Bangaa but it did. Uh, so over that particular character! The storyline for the ladies shows growth through their experiences and education. I want to see the luscious men entice the reader with the same.

This book was HORRIBLE!!

This story was all over the place. The storyline and the plot would have been GREAT, if it was put together correctly. To many errors and the back and forth with each of the ladies had me lost.

Confusing

This book was very confusing. The story has a good setting but the book was confusing because you were trying to keep up with three different character lives when a lot of the events they were doing together.

Omg

This book was boring at first then once the action happened it got very excited I also dislike how it jumps all over the place and it's confusing jumping back and forth with different characters but I'm ready for part 2
