I am woman, I am invincible, April 9, 2005
This review is from: The Connection: Murder, Money, Sex And A Warehouse Full of Cocaine (Paperback)
This book and Lust of the Flesh was referred to me and I read the good reviews and decided to buy them. They both were excellent books. Nina is a bad mother...shut your mouth. Girlfriend dodges bullets, survive blows to the head, gunshot wombs to the flesh, and being stuffed in the trunk of a car. Everybody that came in contact with her was dying. Because of her, I was hoping that her daughter and grandmother wouldn't die. I was glad that she didn't touch on that area. My only complaint is that Nina kept finding herself in tight spots and then miracles happened in each incident where she was freed. I guess it's true that God does work in mysterious ways and watches over babies and fools. In the end, she lets you know that there will be a sequel when the Mayor gets out of prison in 2 years. I highly recommend this book and Lust of the Flesh.

The Hottest Book I've Read All Year. It's that Good!!!, March 3, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: The Connection: Murder, Money, Sex And A Warehouse Full of Cocaine (Paperback)
Well, I bought this book at 9pm one night and was finished by 3am the next morning. It is that good! I love the infusion of New Orleans culture; I love the upbeat, fast-paced story-line; I love the writer's hip and modern style. The legal thriller follows a young, hip, attorney, Nina Jones, who entangles herself in the hunt for a murderer, and the writer's fresh approach to a timelessly enticing tale makes it stand out among any other thriller I have read. If you like Mary Higgins Clark, if you like John Grisham, you'll be blown away by the captivating technique of this new writer. Guaranteed thrill!! Check it out.

Legalized Hustling.........................................., March 27, 2005
This review is from: The Connection: Murder, Money, Sex And A Warehouse Full of Cocaine (Paperback)
Nina Jones abandoned by her shamefully dependent mother, was raised by Grandmaw. Like most young girls, Nina loves to party hard! Thankfully her school work isn't affected because of it. Using what she's been blessed with; Nina is able to stay laced for the next week end events with her girls Wanda, and LaTisha.
"The love of a good man changes you!" Well it helped Nina stop hustling and focus on her education as well as looking forward to her future. Now armed with a law degree, and a baby our savoir-faire attorney exploits her hustling in order to legally steal more!
No crime is too heinous for Ms. Jones, and remorse isn't an emotion she relishes in as long as the client can afford her services. That is until she meets Jerome Clark. Nina thinks of all the accolades that will come as a result of this particular trial.
It appears that Nina has stumbled onto a ruse that she isn't at all certain really exists. Startling enough Nina finds herself in a life or death situation. The clock is steadily ticking away, and the body counts rising! Is there anyone that Nina can turn to? The chances of survival become slimmer as she tries to CONNECT the missing pieces of this elaborate enigma. "Get rich or die tryin!"
The Connection: Murder, Money, Sex, And A Warehouse Full of Cocaine; appears to be completely overlooked! This book offers suspenseful plots, politics, trust, and love with some way lively characters.
S.W. Smith I look forward to reading more from you.
