Gangsta (The Berotte Family Book 15) by Monica Walters

Gangsta is a state of mind and a state of being… Everything I do is gangsta.

Joel Knight, although the righthand of a kingpin, is a boss in his own right. Being raised by his father, who was a part of a kingpin’s inner circle, afforded him knowledge of the streets. His name is feared simply because he has followed in his father’s footsteps. He’s never known his mother and has no desire to even know who she is. Recently leaving the game behind and traveling the world, he’s determined to find out what his next steps should be. While in Puerto Rico, he takes part in what he believes is an island rendezvous. However, when he sees her two years later in Houston, she smooths out his rough demeanor and has him questioning life as it is.

I need a gangsta to always be down for me… handling me like I’m the only woman that matters.

Losing her father at a young age, Keondra Mott has learned to make things happen on her own. Observing the code of the streets from the small amount of time she had with him proves to serve her well. She’s a no-nonsense type of woman and feels like if a man can do it, so can she, especially regarding her love life. While she’s looking for love, she’s far from being desperate. She’s about her money and about experiencing the pleasures life has to offer. All that comes to a screeching halt when she reconnects with a fling from a vacation two years prior. While hiding her true emotions to guard her heart, being around him makes her weak.

Gangsta loving at its best… that’s what’s required.

Fighting the feeling is the type of time Joel is on, and Keondra doesn’t mind following suit. He doesn’t know how to accept his emotions for what they are, because he’s always had to be hard and unapproachable. Keondra doesn’t want just another notch on her studded belt, but she refuses to accept his potential to be better and refuses to wait for him to fulfill it. Joel has a decision to make, but will he have the ability to make the right one?

Marriage proposal or business proposition? 

When Charisse steps out of a job interview, she’s met with an offer that blurs the lines between the boardroom and the altar. Dru Martin, a billionaire married to his job, proposes a deal rather than a romance—a marriage of convenience to fulfill family obligations.

But here I am, contemplating a contract that could change my life. I need the money, and Dru seems nice enough. Yet, the closer I get to Dru, the more I wonder if my heart is part of the bargain.

Dru Martin
Running an empire is easy; it’s love that’s complicated. So, when my mother gave me an ultimatum to settle down or forfeit the family empire, I did what any savvy businessman would do—I proposed a deal: a simple contract of marriage to Charisse, a woman intriguing enough to make this charade bearable. If we follow the plan with scheduled kisses and coordinated social media posts, we can convince everyone we’re in love. But when the lines start to blur, I’m left questioning whether this arrangement is just about business, or something more.

How Do You Want It by Kennedy B.

Ten years was a long time, an even longer time to carry pain and resentment; the longest time to hold a grudge. Rhumani never dreamed she’d be faced with the history she spent the last decade of her life trying to bury. That was until she got set up and history was standing at the end of the table in need.

They said if you loved something, let it go. If it comes back; it was always yours. But if it doesn’t? It never was. Kaleem wondered if that still stood even though he hadn’t willingly let her go. Kaleem had his fair share of abandonment—first his mother and father, then her. The last thing he wanted was help from the very person who’d abandoned him ten years ago after doing the unthinkable, or so he thought.

History had a way of flipping things and most of all giving a bullhorn to trauma. With these two anything was possible, but only a few things were plausible. Was forgiveness on the table or had ten years just been too long?
