Jaylin: A Naughty Aftermath
Naughty is what Naughty always does, and Jaylin Jerome Rogers never disappoints. The aftermath to The Naughty Series picks up nearly three years later, where the tables have clearly turned. For the first time ever, Nokea has found true love with another man, while Jaylin remains on the outside, wondering how it has come to this. He could never imagine Nokea falling out of love with him, but Dr. Travis L. Cooper has it all from A to Z. He’s perfectly fine with Nokea and Jaylin being just friends, but getting too comfortable may become a setback or a setup for major things to come. Everyone struggles to stay in their own lane, even Scorpio who finally prepares herself to walk down the aisle. But before that happens, all she desires is one final night, just one, with the man who continues to hold a grip on her heart. Every woman knows that one night with Jaylin can be a game changer, and as Scorpio predicts, their heated sex session concludes with a bang. The only person ready to aim and shoot, however, is Scorpio’s man, Mario, whose loyal family has ties to the Mafia. Betrayal isn’t something he’s comfortable with, and with a billionaire status, Mario is forced to keep his eyes on the money and his woman. Scorpio is way in over her head, and unfortunately, so is Nokea who gets blindsided by a twist that no one sees coming.

I'm so exhausted...but a good exhausted. When a book keeps you up late and wakes you up through the night to sneak a few more pages in... The Author has done you justice...
I hate spoilers...so just know...this is a MUST READ. Jaylin's Mouf was as reckless as ever. His Confidence and Arrogance was on 1,000,000!!! I so love and hate Jaylin.....but I am so glad he is fictional.. I don't think I could take him in real life...
Thanks Brenda Hampton for writing such an enjoyable read and for enduring my rants and raves in your DM's as I read this. I definitely needed someone to hold my hands.
Also shout out to my two reading partners who read ahead of me...but was there along the way MeMe and Vic!

I loved it! I loved him! I loved them! I'm going to my Jaylin & the Family! There wasn't enough stars to rate this book. I'm ready for a spin off, just so I can see what they are doing.

Great read
I love this series. I'm sad to see it come to an end. I love to see how the characters lives progress. Jaylen- omg!!! Loved it!

Loved loved loved this final book. I hate that Nokea had to endure so much in all of her relationships, I felt bad that she lost her father which was very touching. Now moving along going back to the beginning I never liked Scorpio with Jaylin and how she came into the relationship although the fault wasn't entirely all hers. Still she knew that Jaylin was in a relationship with Nokea when she met her. On the other hand what is there to say about Jay baby.... I'm going to leave that alone although I loved his honesty from the door. He made no mistake about what was expected so the women had choices up front. Although I say Nokea as being a little weak in the beginning of the series she was a much better woman than the rest of them. I liked how she never did anything to get revenge she was the better woman in all of this and just stepped back and allowed Jaylin to do him. End the end I'm just glad that Nokea got her HEA. Even if Jaylin upset me at times I will still say that he was ALWAYS honest about everything. I hate the series has ended, but it went out with a BIG BANG.

What a great ending to an awesome!
I must say Ms. Hampton did not disappoint with this final installment of the Naughty Series! I screamed, wanted to cry, wanted to smack some folks and laughed my butt off! I really loved how Brenda wrapped up the series. I think Jay Baby summed it up perfectly at the end and I was well pleased. You will definitely enjoy this novel. Scorpio was live as usual, Nokea was still in denial, Shane makes his presence known, Travis & Mario are trips and the kids are still too cute. Nanny B is still hilarious and will let you know she's still in control! It is a fast paced read, one that I finished in several hours and all I can say is I'm sad to see it end but it's been a great ride and I look for nothing but more greatness from Brenda in the future! Looking forward to the discussion on next week. All I can say is thank you for an outstanding series and keep them coming, I'll keep reading. Love you girl!!!!!!

The Best book in the Naughty Series!!
Yes that Crazy Jaylin Jerome Rogers is back again with his fine self causing all kinds of trouble in Nokea & Scorpio relationships. If you've read previous Naughty books you should know Jaylin is Truly a self centered egotistic Millionaire that gets what he wants you find yourself loving to hate him all over again. When a book keeps you up half the night because you can't tear yourself away from it, you know you have did your job as a author.
Brenda Hampton thank you for a excellent series I wouldn't want it to end no other way. You Did That Girl
Nothing but Perfection.

Ok read
Ok read, not as good as the rest in the series. I am not surprised about Jaylin and Nokea. One thing that bothered me was not having closure on the Travis situation. He flips out on Nokea and that s just it. No hindsight on why he became that way. Was it something in his past. Why was he an alcoholic? Having his mom speak with Jokes would have been good. Jaylin was cruel to Scorpio. He didn't have to take her money and saying she's dead to him. The children ate way out of control and I was hoping Jaylin had evolved more. I never cared for his character. But he's an interesting chatacyer. I loved Shane . would love to see where they all are at now.

An awesome Naughty update
Brenda Hampton never disappoints. We get to revisit Jaylin and Nokea and see what is going on. Nokea seems to have moved on with Dr. Travis and is truly in love with him until he let's his insecurities get the best of him. The conclusion of this series also brought Scorpio back who is still Scorpio but is marrying Mario. You will not be disappointed in the conclusion of the Naughty series. It will take you on a roller coaster of emotions. Enjoy this ride with our favorite characters

I can read almost anything, but this was an ugly story with ugly people. Clearly I am in the minority. Don't get how the ex wife could keep calling the ex husband to help her out. I am not a fan of violence to wives. Maybe I'm getting too old for this type of book. The cover sucked me in!! I would never call it a romance. But to each his/her own in book selection.

This book was phenomenal from beginning to end. I’ve been a fan of the naughty series from the beginning. I haven’t always liked the things that Jaylin has done but you can’t help but love him. He’s the realest playa you will ever know. Lol. I was always rooting for Nokea and I’m glad that the book ended the way it did.

A great series. In through all the drama, that darn Jaylin gets his love! It was a true roller coaster. You want to hate him one minute, love him the next, then feel a bit of pity for him in the end. This series was a heart wrenching saga! Glad it is over. Couldn't take anymore. Great listen!

Jaylin: A Naughty Aftermath (The Naughty Series 7)
Happy to know that Jaylin Rogers got his HEA with Nokea, Scorpio got her HEA with Mr. Money too. Lol... But the best part was KARMA came for Travis and my man Shane had a hand in it or maybe not.

This series ended perfect I like the way it ended. The story was captivating from beginning to end. They had ups and downs and lots of drama. I'm just glad it was a wrap up book and the series ended like it should. It was worth the read.

This series was so GOOD. I hated to see it come to an end. I loved these books so much. That Jaylin Jerome Rogers is a real piece of work. Now I have to find a new book to obsess over. It will be hard for my next read to follow this one for sure!

Ms Hampton has done it again. I love love love this series. Jay Baby and Nokea what a love story. Excellent read as always.

Finally!!
I'm so glad that there was a happily ever after without giving away the details. You never know how someone feels until you actually put yourself in THEIR shoes.

After 8 books the key players are back where they started. It was a wild ride. Jaylin has come a long way.

I really wanted Jaylin to be with Scorpio
November 17, 2023
Ugh, I wish Jaylin and Nokea the best. He did redeem himself somewhat in this book. Still narcissistic and controlling.
Scorpio girl, I was rooting for you but you just can’t help yourself.

One of my favorite series, but this one fell short. Hot and steamy read, but I didn't find the storyline all that interesting. Predictable at times and not as much drama as the other books in this series
March 8, 2017
Oh my Gawd. This was a phenomenal ending to an amazing series. I Love Love Love each book this author growth is nothing short of fabulous. I HIGHLY recommend this ENTIRE series. I'm speechless kudos Brenda

Wonderful
This book was amazing, so much that I found myself picking it up every few minutes to finish it. It is now 1:00 AM in the morning and I am completing this book as if I do not have to get up for work in a few hours. So glad they FINALLY ended up together, but I would have settled for Travis being jailed instead. I felt her pain when her Dad died, but I also thought Travis was involved for a second, would have been a nice angle.

In the eighth installment of the Naughty series, we catch up with Jaylin, Nokea, Scorpio, Shane, Nanny B and the kids. Everyone has gone their separate ways, but still remain in each others lives…for the kids sake.
Scorpio has found a wealthy Italian named Mario and busy planning her happily ever after…or is it?
Nokea has settled down with a physician named Travis, with a closet full of secrets and an even darker past. Will Jaylin finally let her go,in order to have a life of her own?
I highly recommend this book, because @brendahampton_1 did a phenomenal job of wrapping this series up. My emotions went from heart palpitations (Jaylin grew an extra set of cohunas in this one) to a morning full of mourning. I mourned for the numerous women who have endured physical abuse at the hand of someone who claims to love them. It reminded to thank God for delivering me from a very toxic relationship. I look forward to reading many more books from Brenda. I give it

Black Love!!!
Jaylin Jerome Rogers the epitome of cockiness,is back in the final installment of the Naughty series. The unorthodox family
of Nokea, Scorpio and his kids has become drama free because everyone has moved on ,or had they? When tragedy hits and mistakes are made ,who will get their happy ever after in the Naughty Aftermath?
Wow! What another great book to add on to this five star series. Page after page of Jaylin's cocky antics and usual stubbornness had me unable to put this book down. Brenda Hampton never disappoints when bringing a story to life and making you feel every emotion the characters feel . Although it's the ending of one of the best series written,I anticipate more five star books from one of my faves .These characters will be sorely missed, however the exceptional ending of this book provided contentment. Thank you Mrs. Hampton for introducing Jaylin and taking us on this wild and drama -filled journey ,he had given me some of my best reading years.
