"How are you supposed to keep your man with your hair in that mess, Tamia?" "And has your hair been looking like that all week?" She went on talking about my hair now, considering it was blown-out instead of well kept, hot combed and straightened the way that she liked. "No, mama." I dragged, annoyed completely now with all of my peace gone in this moment. "I just got out of the shower and I just finished washing and blow-drying my hair." "I'm going to hot comb it and then flat iron it when I'm finished doing my skincare." "Yasin's not going to be home until tomorrow probably anyway." I threw in there but of course she wouldn't chastise him about why and where.

"But you don't know what it's like for me; in my skin; my body; my mind. You don't." She deeply expressed with a heavy sigh, running her hands down her hot face.

Completed ✅ *BOOK 1 in the Gang Life series. * "You are mine! Do you understand?" He says. His soft lips are right up against my ear, his hands either side of my head and my back is up against the cold wall behind me. I roll my eyes at him, looking away. He slams his hand into the wall, making me jump and the white paint crack and chip. "Did you just roll your eyes at me?" He asks, voice dangerously low. "Don't do that... unless you want to see how I handle it" He groans, his dangerous dark brown eyes bore into mine. *** When young African-American girl Adeline Carter is faced with possibly one of the most interesting business deals of her life, how will she handle it? Will she rise above the challenge? Or will she crumble to his charms first?
