Allison Hobbs

Allison and Karen brings it on home with a perfect balance of scandal, drama and sex.

Ain't I saying she a gold digger but Cheryl had psychic powers and saw what the future held when she met Randy. She kept him close, worked what her momma gave her and got him to put a ring on it before the dust could settle. Playing the part of the ride or die, she had his back all the way to the bank.

Karma always finds a way to bite you in the ass and the skeleton in the closet name is Sexy. Making a name show more of her own ruffles feathers intentionally and Sexy has no shame to her game. Drama unfolds in broad daylight but only Cheryl knows how the puzzle is truly put together. show less

I am a long-time Allison Hobbs fan, from way back. This book for me was a short, quick read. (I devour books,so I read it in one day.) It was filled with drama, (I didn't know which character I wanted to smack the most, it kept alternating.) The character I rooted for the most was Nadia, I really empathized with her.
Although this book had some typos and a couple small grammar issues, they didn't really detract in a major way from the story. The plot twists were good, (especially loved the show more one with Reggie at the dinner table towards the end of the book.) It's sexy, full of drama, relatable characters, (we all know someone like Lauryn, Nadia, and funky ol' Reggie - can you tell I don't like him? LOL)

I would recommend this book to anyone (age-appropriate of course). show less

Going to Chapel

Harlow, Nivea and Vangie are friends with the same goal - to walk down the aisle; by any means necessary. Harlow, a beautiful woman, is engaged to her dream guy. Her only concern is if he will still want to make the trip to the altar if he finds out about her sordid past. When she gets a glimpse into some of his business dealings, she has to ask herself if he really is a dream.

Nivea, a successful businesswoman, is planning an extravagant wedding to her blue-collar fiancé, show more Eric. She has paid for everything, including her ring, when she discovers he has a secret life. She has to decide to accept this revelation or be upstaged by her younger sister.

Vangie, a single mother, is lonely and slightly jealous of her friends’ pending nuptials. She wishes Shawn, her son’s father, would get his act together and help her raise their son. It seems Vangie’s wish comes true when Shawn starts contributing more and rekindles their relationship. The only problem is he doesn’t believe in marriage. Vangie has to decide if playing house is enough.

“Put a Ring On It” is well-written and flows nicely. However, it is another story about desperate, middle aged, funny named black woman who seem to think they will be made whole if they have a man. I was not impressed. I enjoyed Harlow’s side story better than the woes of the woman trying to get down the aisle. I give it a three.

No Boundaries by Allison Hobbs is a hot erotic read; it takes you on a wild ride into the world of BDSM. Make no mistakes, it is not for the faint of heart, nor those who are easily embarrassed by sexy dialogue, and straight to the point hot & steamy sex. I put this book away in one night, it was that good!
