A Cold Winter With A Hot Boy

Rate this book
Armani ‘Mani’ Sincere is feisty, seductive, and quick witted. For seventeen years of life she had not a care in the world because money was more than just green paper, it was a lifestyle, one in which her father dripped upon her while hiding the truths of his notorious yet dangerous life. In the blink of an eye, Armani’s entire life flips from what she’s known, to the gritty dark world opening her eyes to just how dangerous life can be. When she’s ripped away from the most important man in her life, she’s willing to do anything to be reunited with him again, even if it meant she had to reserve her soul by living in an outer body experience mindset to get the job done. Tray Harris, the fine, chocolate, blue eyed demon known to the streets as ‘Snow’ was raised into a world of guns, sex, and murder. A real hot boy in the streets, and one of the youngest bosses to do it; people respected him because he ran a smooth operation and made sure everybody was straight. With the craziness going on in his world, he didn’t have time to fall in love. If it didn’t make money it didn’t make sense. Snow always knew what he wanted; that’s until he lays eyes on the most beautiful girl he’d ever seen before. Only problem is she was under contract with the most dangerous man he’d ever known... his father. In this chilling story, Snow makes a big decision, but is he ready for what comes with it? Will Mani be willing to put her trust in Snow? It’s a dog eat dog world and you don’t have to be a player to succumb to the truths behind how the game goes. Let’s find out if she’s willing to live through one of the coldest Winters ever with a hot boy.

The Whole World Is Against Us!

S. Yvonne , this read may be old but it's new to me. I hope it all plays out. Mani has such a good life right now. Mani knows its something going on she just can't put in place. Her dad is one of the good ones. I can't wait to see what happens next.🤗🤗🤗🤗

This one captured my attention very quickly, one minute the FMC is celebrating her birthday, to being kidnapped within minutes. Whew the skeletons in this book… a brothel, bitter/jealous wife, a rough father/son dynamic. The author took me through it but I could not put it down!! There was an overwhelming amount of errors and that keeps me from giving this one 5 ⭐️.

I tell you what Snow is everything... I feel so bad for Mani, Chantel is a trashy, I can't wait to see her get hers. I don't trust True for some reason. Scar got to go... I'm glad Dru ain't as naive as Chantel thinks he is. I hope Bird is okay. I need part 2 right now.

Okae I see you snow

I can’t stand how chantel straight played mani the way she did! She suppose to be all in love with dry her husband but she playing this dangerous game of finding girls for the brothel! Then on top of that she made mani think she was dead until the night she called Chico phone! Dummy should of waited until he said hello! But then she was too dumb anyways she probably would t of been able to read between the lines! Man I’m glad Bird took a liking to mani because if she didn’t it would of all went another way! Man bird better get her money and get out! Lorraine lord why the house mom have to be his sister! However she loved mani and took care of her! I hope when this is all over she can still speak with Lorraine! Scar really wanting to start a war with his son when all he had to do was let him buy mani? Idk but she must of been bringing in the big bucks or something! Why haven’t Dru found her yet? Lord let me get to part two because I need to see how this war plays out

Amazing story

I felt so sorry for Mani when she was kidnapped taken away from her father I hope and pray that she does reunited with her father and Chantel does get kick to the curve if Dru don’t kill her first...Mani have every reason not to like her she’s a snake in the grass. I was even glad when snow save her can’t wait to see how the war between him and his father came out I hate that it had to come down to father and son beefing but I scar needs to take a step back and see why his son did what he did not gon say any about to tune into part 2 but great story love it 🥰 🥰🥰

😱 omg, five stars off the back. Now that was a good book from start to end. I couldn't put my phone down I had to finish it that's how good this book was and I don't want to give the story away. All I'm going to say is that I hope Chantel gets her butt beat smh, I don't like her at all. She's a straight you know what!!! My favorite character Mr.snow is all that and more in my eyes. I would give this book 1,000 stars if I could. I'm happy I decided to read this book. S. Yvonne you outdid yourself with this one. Great job on your book and to be honest you gain a new fan /fav life. Keep the books coming my way.

It Just Might Warm Up!!

The writer paints us a grim picture of life for a young Mani and we get the feeling that the road is going to be long and hard. But we are pleasantly surprised, when we get a look at what the light looks like. This for some is going to have some triggers and you're not going to want to continue. This was a well written and thought out story and the storyline is developed. The writer handles quite a bit about this story Sith so much class. If you are looking for excitement, mystery, A budding relationship and all the ardrelaine you can handle, then this is for you.

Must Read!!!

Whew!!! Dru should've taken heed to the fact Mani didn't like Chantel. Had her paid close attention he would've known she was jealous of his daughter and plotting. That tramp was scandalous and I can't wait until she have a date with Karma. Mani was put in a bad situation. It's deeper than what Scar claiming it to be. Scar is a sick ass bastard. It's a good thing Snow don't have none of his characteristics. Snow definitely proved he isn't anything like his father. Bird was a true Bird but even she knew Chantel crossed a line. I seriously hope she made it out safely though.

Dru ain gon stop til he get his daughter back. I hate it for chantel wen he find out her role. My dude snow don stepped in and declared and its finna go down in Da Towers. I waitin for the ratchet michelle to sho up and deliver a blow to scars ego. She shows as the timid wife, but i kno betta!! Come on wit da next part 🧡

MUST READ

Info this book was everything! I hated how mani had to endure so much pain but seeing as thought snow was her knight in shining armor made everything else ok 😂 I’m glad he came in & saved her when he did & how he did! It’s a vibe for me💯🗣‼️ i can’t wait to see how things play out between scar & snow.....especially the father & chantel cuz she’s deceitful I’ll be glad when somebody off her honestly 🤷🏽‍♀️😂 but on another note can’t wait for book 2 to see everything that’ll unfold right before our eyes‼️ but until then keep these hits coming back to back❤️💯🗣‼️

Loved it

Good from the start to finish. It’s funny because as soon as I finished it, I went to search for a Part 2 (my expectations for my favorite authors may be way too high 😩🤣), and it appeared in the search bar before I finished typing. That tells me that I’m not the only one who was hooked and ready to see what’s next. Chantel has to go. Scar is evil like the lion. True surprised me, but maybe her crazy will kick in later. I like Bird. I think she is genuine. We shall see💜 I can’t wait 🥰

A Hot Boy

Ok so I really didn't know what to expect with this one, it could have went either way. See Mani is definitely the victim in all of this but so is her father. Just like Scar said you put your trust in the wrong people and stuff start happening. I am glad she didn't lose herself with what she has t ok do and even though Bird has her ways she definitely showed up when needed. I love how solid Snow is. He not faking how he feels about nobody, a real stand up guy. My only real question is how will Scar's wife and Snow mama feel?

🔥 🔥 🔥

I would give this book 100 stars if I could.. This book was fire right from the beginning.. I always believed you could never trust no one and this book is the truth to everyday life.. Chantel is a money hungry hoe. How you jealous over a mans daughter. She wrong for what she did to Mani she must die.. I cried for her Mani didn't deserve that. And to loose her childhood friend really hurt.. I pray her and her dad are reunited. I love Snow.. But Scar is one evil monster and he deserves to be torched then killed. Be back soon with part 2

Girrrrllll

This book is everything and it's kind of different and I like it. This Snow character is a beast and Scar crazy. Manis dad Dru needs to get his emotions together to help get his daughter back. Chantel playing all sides and it's definitely going to backfire on her. Bird appears to be Kool chick regardless of her thing for doing anything for money that's just the hustle in her.You get it how you live it and it may not be for everybody but thats life and you have to live it the best way you can. Bird has a good heart she showed that toward Mani. On to part2.

Just wow

Come on now! I know you didn’t just do us like this. Please tell me it’s coming soon. This series is everything I knew it was gonna be just by the title. I’m in love with Snow lol young self. I love how he always kept his people safe and how he locked down the whole projects just to keep everyone safe and sound. Michelle should’ve let Snow plant and bullet in Scar ass, I knew he wasn’t gonna stop coming for Snow. I loved Mani’s energy and how pure she is even after everything happened to her. I am officially feigning for the next part so come on with it

Wow-eee-Wow

My oh my it’s no fun when the rabbit got the gun…I think Scar got angry at Dru because Chantel fell in love with him and Scar no longer had his bottom B**ch…I’m also thinking Chantel is the one who had simmering to do with Dru’s warehouse getting hit…Maybe her and Scar were in on it together…Her hatred for Mani is sickening all because you wanted all of her father’s attention and love…That just sad…I can’t wait to read the rest of this series along with the spin-offs

It's Cold!

Finally! I have been stuck in some terrible books lately but this book had revitalized me! This story was full of secrets and surprises! I hope we get the chance to see Mani and her father reunite. And Scar and Chantel receive their just desserts. I would live to see Snow's mom more involved...I bet she a real one! Waiting very impatiently for the next installment! Great job!

Great Read!!!

Omg where is part 2, i can’t wait to see what happens to Snow and his disgusting daddy Scar. I’m glad he went for Mani and saved her but now i wanna know what this war is going to look like. Mani’s daddy is going to be so happy that she is alive but he is going to kill his wife once he finds out that she was apart of the reason things happened the way it did. This was a great read and i cannot wait for the next part to be released.

Can’t Wait!

This book has drama from the beginning to the end! Armani can’t catch a break and Scar won’t let her. I’m unsure what his real issue is with her but the one he telling seems suspect to me. There is no love between anyone and no one can be trusted. Snow has proven love means nothing when it comes to doing what’s right. Or maybe it takes the right kind of love like what he might find in Armani. Can’t wait for part 2!

Snow came thru there like a winter mutha f@cking storm. So when exactly will somebody beat da fuck outta Chantel? Plus make our day by making sure she takes her last breath? She has to be the most disrespectful ass hoe I done seent. Scar what can I say about him? He just doesn't give a damn about a human life. What is he had a daughter and someone took his daughter and made her work at a brothel? How would you feel then?

Whew chile.

This was book had me engrossed from the very beginning. I loved the author's character development and how the story flowed. Its a cold world outside and snow stayed prepared. Sometimes you just never know who to trust cuz the betrayal these people went through was crazy.. The craziness these characters possessed tho was unmatched. Overall a wonderful introduction to this author I cant wait to whats about to come.

Wow! I could kick myself for taking this long to read it....

Man, this right here is the bomb. I could kick myself to have waited so long to finally read this story, but it’s all good...
No spoilers yet and no full review yet because it’s continuing but I can safely say if you have this start now and if you are thinking about it, stop and get it now you will not be sorry....
Let’s go Snow!!!

Oh man that was good

Man do I need a snow in my life. Poor Mani daddy’s princess unknowingly being targeted by a jealous gold dogging stepmom. Too bad Manis dad is in a world win of depression bcz his princess is missing. He’s beginning to have second thoughts about his wife’s sorrow, I feel like he’s watching her and she doesn’t know. Anyhow Snow done saved the day and caused a war with his daddy who was holding Mani,I hope this turns into a dope love.
Happy reading
