Rate this book
You ever loved a man more than you loved yourself? To the point where accepting his lies, abuse, and mistresses, were second nature. How far are you willing to go in the name of love? When is enough, enough? Have you convinced yourself that’s it’s okay because you are the main chick? The one who is where home is always at. That's exactly the situation Twenty-Three-year-old Tommie Knowles found herself in with her boyfriend, Rodney. After tragic events lead her to flee the city she runs into bad boy Ghost who is also the man to see if you trying to move anything in and out the state.
Rodney was sure Tommie would never leave him. He figured all he had to do was hit her with some dope sex a few new designer clothes and she would be putty in his hands. With the girl everybody wanted on his arms, a slew of girls at his beck and call, and the streets of ATL on lock, Rodney was sure nothing could disrupt his perfect world until a series of events leaves him feeling how Tommie has felt for years; alone. What will happen when he finds out she has run into the arms of another? Will he once again charm her back? Or has his luck with her finally run out?
After his father passes the throne down to him, Ghost is now the plug and is supplying everything from the east coast to the west coast. Having already had love in these streets before he became the plug made it very easy for him to step into the position with no problem. Everything in his life seemed to be falling into place except his love life. What will happen when one day he runs into the woman of his dreams, Tommie and can't seem to get her off his mind. Will she turn out to be what he's been searching for? Or will she be just another waste of his time?
Secrets hit close to home when everyone’s worlds begin to collide and the outcome is bound to leave a few bodies in its wake. Take a ride with Tommie, Ghost, and Rodney as they find out all is fair in Love and Hennessy.

I almost didn't get this book, but I'm so glad that I did! Tommie is the epitome of a battered woman. But as time passes she finds the strength to move on to a healthier situation. I must say that I really like the chemistry between her and Landon. I also hope that Rodney will get what is coming his way soon enough. On to book 2 for me!

Tommie is STUPID!!!!

The book is actually good it’s just that Tommie so doggone dumb it’s making my head hurt. I know that there are really females out here taking this kind of a Ouse but they’re not in my circle so just reading about it burns me up. No woman should allow a man to break her. I love GHOST. He’s the bomb and he rides hard for his.

The Drama!!!!!

Amber is a whole bum chick out here. Who does that. I pray Tommie and Ghost get together. I love Jasmine and the way she loves her sister even though they didn’t grow up together.

Ugh

Bruh I knew Rodney was Amber’s baby daddy. So what’s Chelsea’s beef with Tommie? Do she want her friend to be with him?

WTF?!?!

I didn't see that coming! I can't wait for part two, because I'm so confused. Who's really Karter's father, and how does Rodney know Ghost?! It's really a very small world!

Part 2 ASAP

I am seriously tired of story lines with weak a$$ women. Tommie is stuck on stupid. Running behind a man that doesn't respect, care or like her is insane. No way wld I claim that monster as my child's father. I love Landon and Tommie however I can tell she about to loose him running behind somebody thats for everybody. Hopefully after this last betrayal Tommie Will get a backbone & move on. Will ghost choose love over family? Hmmm part 2 please.

Needs work but interesting to follow…
I was so ready to be done with this seeing as how Tommie came off as a plumb fool. Keeping it pushing turned out to be worth it because the story switched up and became really interesting. I’d follow with the next one.
