SHEMAR is born and BRED BY THE SLUMS of Cloverland, in Houston Texas. From the start, he did whatever it took to break into the game, overcoming deadly challenges while surviving attacks from many enemies gained on his ascent to the top. After receiving the key to the streets from TAURUS, a powerful drug lord, Taurus becomes the target of vicious, young savages who are hell bent on dethroning the new street king. Not only must Shemar fight off the clique of murderous young boys, he must eliminate a gang of crazy Haitians who want his power and hood prestige. While embattled by a drug war, Shemar must also navigate the troublesome fight for his heart that is waged by SIMONE and PURITY. Then, there is a new, unexpected development that emerges! The road to riches has never been paved with so much deadly suspense, intrigue and deception. Will Shemar persevere? Or will his distractions ultimately cost him everything, including his life?

Twists and Turns

There were a lot of twists and turns that made you want to keep reading. Taboos is just that...taboo which is those lines should have never been crossed. I was so hoping that Shemar would have gotten his sister under control before it was too late! based on the title.....I would have never expected this eneding.....even though I suspected that someone would have a melt down. Over all the story was well written, and I would have given it 5 🌟 s if I had just a little more action at the end with Shemar and Taurus.

Good read

I like the series as far as it being more street. I like the author too, I just don't understand why he is so obsessed with incest. Its weird. The last couple series I have read by him have been about incest relationships. It's like he is trying to make it seem normal. I don't know about the south, but up north that Shit is not normal. I read this book slower than I usually read book because I was over all that incest Shit. If I read another book by him and it has incest, I'm just going stop reading this authors books.

What an ending

This was a good series even though it contained incest but I can understand why Shemar was confusing sex with love bc that's what he was taught from the age of 13, and Purity was taught u can only love n have sex with ur male family. Both if them were physically and mentally damage by their adopted parents. I would like to know did Shemar survive and what happened to baby Jr

Wow

I think this one was the best one yet. I'm just speechless. I know that Shemar caused all of that. I don't want to give the book away but I highly recommend this book to everyone who reads.

What a book

Ghost you have definitely done it again. Another page turner, what a twist tale of love and pain with a lot of street life added. You are definitely one of my favorite urban writers.

Awesome page turner!!!#

The ending was the best of the series. I fault Shemar, that forbidden fruit was his downfall. He was so young and nieve. It caused him to loose it all.

Lines crossed and no returns

I can definitely say this is a very powerful emotionally filled read. It has so much mayhem and illicit desires that it's a must read. I've actually read this series twice. One click!
