The Dopeman's Wife
Once the streets pull you in, they own you. Or at least that’s the way it’s been for Nautica. Growing up in the ‘hood, all she’s ever known is the fast life—fast money ill-gotten through scandals and relentless scheming. But when a big scam nearly finishes her off, she decides to seek more out of life than the “hustle” and tries to make a new life for herself on the East Coast. It isn’t long, though, before she falls in with Manny, a drug kingpin, who sweeps her off her feet. He promises to marry her and make her “Queen of the Street.” Then everything falls apart. As their relationship unravels, both of their dark secrets are uncovered, pitting them against each other in this exciting tale of love and deception.

I knew Ashley & JaQuavis were BADDDD together when I read The Cartel (1-3)but I must say he is a killah all by himself. I can't wait to read more from him and more of them together. I couldn't put the book down until I finished then I read it again.

After reading a few books by this author and his co-author, I have found that the books pretty much have the same premise. However, they have all been very good. This book, on the other hand, was just okay to me. There were several typos, which probably meant it was a rush job. It was slow in the beginning but picked up almost toward the end. Hopefully, "Dopefiend" will be a better read. This author is too good for me to give up on him after one mediocre book.
