3.0 out of 5 stars Looking for Comfort from Daddy, February 2, 2008

This review is from: Daddy's House (Paperback)

On the run for being a snitch, Candace Holmes doesn't know who to trust and she's afraid to find out. After nearly being caught by her arch enemy's goons, she agrees to move into Daddy's house, because at least she'll be safe from Big V there. The catch is, she has to become one of Daddy's girls, meaning she is expected to join his stable of ladies of leisure. At first, she protests but then she figures she can make good money in Daddy's house, making escape possible sooner than she thought. But things aren't always as they seem. DADDY'S HOUSE is full of secrets and a final showdown with Big V reveals the most devastating secret of them all. Suddenly Daddy's house is yet another place from which Candace must escape.

Azarel takes it to the streets in DADDY'S HOUSE. I couldn't help feeling like Candace ultimately got what she deserved and there isn't much depth to the story, but she does a good job describing the lifestyle of ladies of leisure.

This review is from: Daddy's House (Paperback)

A few years ago I saw this movie titled "Final Destination" it was about a group of school aged kids taking a trip; who were supposed to die in flight but instead escaped death. Soon after their escape, they begin dying one-by-one in mysterious freak accidents. The premise of "Daddy's House" is almost the same. The story is based on the old adage "what comes around goes around".

Candice obviously didn't believe in karma she made one bad decision after another with regards to the men in her life. In the end she had two powerful individuals plotting to take her life. Together they will navigate to put her down however they can.
Through it all Candice seems to remember the teachings of faith she learned from her grandma. But is she in too deep to be saved?

Daddy's House has a very unpredictable ending which will make Candice and the reader believe "what comes around goes around" I absolutely enjoyed this book LCB is really producing a lot of must reads.

This review is from: Daddy's House (Paperback)

Azarel is back with another smash hit, and it's a definite page turner. Candy is on the run from her mother because her mouth wrote a check her a$$ couldn't cash. She couldn't trust anyone, not even family, and when she finds herself at Daddy's House it's like a dream come true...if that dream were really a nightmare. Daddy is a mess, and Ms. Dottie is even worse. There are strict rules in Daddy's House and if you don't follow them you may just find your self back where you started from.
This was a different kind of situation for Azarel in a hugh way. This book was different from her previous works but she gave you that same page-turner/can't-put-down energy that she's known for. There were many surprises along the way, and I really enjoyed the story. I have to honestly say it was definitely wrapped up well and there is no need for a sequel. Make this one a part of your X-Mas wish list, You won't regret it!
