Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One thing is for sure, and two things are for certain, when dealing with a savage your heart just might get broken. Danger is no stranger to the heartaches of the world. After losing her adoptive mother, she almost crumbles under a domino effect of misfortune. When she meets Sleep, she thinks she’s finally found a captain to save her, but when she learns his main goal is to pimp her out, Danger wastes no time getting from under his thumb. On the run to get as far away from Sleep as possible, she lands in Dallas, where she reunites with her bestie. Free is the true definition of dangerous curves. A BBW with enough personality to steal any show, she’s quick to flash a smile that hides her own set of demons. It’s hard to be comfortable in your skin, especially when family is the main one trying to tear you down, but Free is determined to stunt on everybody that has a problem with her weight— family included. Add the kind of street smarts that make a natural born hustler, and Free is every hitta’s dream come true. Whether they can handle her is the real question. Stranger is a self-made boss in his own right, a dude whose name rings bells in the streets and commands respect even while he’s locked up. Growing up with a schizophrenic for a mother made him unbreakable, but not above the law when he gets caught slipping. Done serving his time, he only has two things on his mind: hitting the streets and getting to the money by any means necessary. After stumbling across a connect and an offer he can’t refuse, Stranger agrees to collect a blood debt in exchange for the keys to the streets. Will his decision cost him more than he’s willing to give up? Where Stranger is a silent killer, Spazz, his younger brother, leaves a path of destruction with anything he touches. Wild, rude, and reckless, he’s ready to get it poppin’ if you even look at him wrong, and there’s only one thing that can tame his temper: his five-year-old daughter. With a mouth to feed and a street legacy to claim, he’s down with no hesitation when Stranger brings him into his plan to re-claim the streets. With his brother by his side, Spazz is ready to put his city on the map. Stranger never let his heart take his focus off the money, until he meets Danger. Mesmerized by her effortless beauty, he just has to have her, but there’s one problem: she’s on the arm of the same guy he’s planning to take down. Is he willing to kill for love? Spazz always gets what he wants, and he knows Free will be his from the minute he meets her. Never being attracted to BBWs in the past, he’s powerless against Free’s hypnotizing thickness, and her confidence and slick mouth are just the type of bonus that makes her worth the chase. Will he convince Free to take a chance on a real one? Ain’t nothin’ like lovin’ a savage, and once you get inside the head of one, your life will never be the same. Take a journey with Danger, Free, Stranger, and Spazz as they try to cheat the past for the future. Nothing goes as planned in love, especially once you’re Turned out by a Savage.

Download or read book When Loyalty Becomes Betrayal written by Shelly Gisele and published by ShellyGiselePublishingLLC. This book was released on 2020-01-11 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: KADEN is a retired drug dealer and former kingpin of the streets of Miami, Florida. He had created a legacy based on power, respect, wealth, and branding his name. Today, he’s the owner of a strip club, having left the world of drugs behind. Before stepping down from his throne, Kaden taught his younger cousin, Jordan, the game before ultimately allowing him to take over his kingdom. The two men, however, were polar opposites. Jordan was younger and more reckless, a treacherous guy with a ruthless streak. Kaden was much calmer, wiser and level-headed in the way he went around his business. Jordan‘s greatest flaw was failing to change his mentality and adapt to the role of being a boss. Instead, he remained rooted in the same hood mentality of a small-time player. Rather than being respected on the streets, he made enemies of some serious players. Kaden’s future, and that of his marriage, had become threatened both by Jordan’s out-of-control behavior and his own infidelities. Could he really start over and build a new life, leaving his past behind, or is the life he had lived destined to catch up with him and destroy everything? So much hangs in the balance as a brutal turf war heats up on the mean streets, where the one certainty is that only the strong and street-smart will survive.
