4.0 out of 5 stars (RAW Rating: 3.5) - On My Own, January 1, 2006

This review is from: King of Spades (Paperback)
KING OF SPADES by Kiniesha Gayle is a story of sex, drugs and murder. Andre Chin is a well-known drug lord who is living life to the fullest. He has a fancy house, plenty of nice clothes and more money than he knows what to do with. The drug game has been good to him. His girlfriend Porsha, an attorney, is assisting Chin in making all of his business endeavors legal. Although he is still in the drug game, he also is the owner of a restaurant and a record company. In the midst of his conversion, someone is robbing him of his drugs, which is causing him to lose money. Chin and his partner, Tony Moreno, are determined to find out who is behind the robberies if it's the last thing they do. Chin has done a lot of dirt in the past, and has a list of several people who could be out to get him. Will the sins of his past hinder his future from prospering?

Natalie Smith, affectionately known as Baby Girl, is determined to find her parents' killer. Having lived a hard knock life after the death of her parents, Baby Girl will not have peace until their murder is resolved. She was there when they were murdered and remembers vivid details of the killer. Since the police haven't solved the case, she decides to take matters in her own hands. She gets caught up in the life she swore she would steer clear from, and, in the process comes into contact with Chin. As charming as Chin is, Baby Girl almost loses sight of her goal, but it doesn't take her long to get back on track. And once she does, an opportunity arises that allows her to seek control over Chin's expanding business and get the revenge the she has sought for a long time. Will she succeed in avenging her parents' deaths?

KING OF SPADES is a suspenseful tale of a man's attempt to turn from his wicked ways and a young girl's struggle to seek justice. The characters were well-developed, gritty and real. The adversity that they overcame to come out on top was inspiring, as was their desire to achieve their goals by any means necessary. If you are in the market for a tale full of unsuspecting twists and turns, don't hesitate to pick this book up.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Heart of A Man Is The Soul of A Woman, November 17, 2005
This review is from: King of Spades (Paperback)
Kinieshia Gayle brings you the drug game like never before not only does she go to the limit letting you know how the game is played but she goes as far as to even show you how a woman can be a man's downfall.

Andre Chin was sitting on top of the world or so he thought his women Porsche Hilton was a prestigious lawyer trying to make his game flow legit. When Chin allowed his manhood to get the best of him and started swaying and playing the game. He finds himself in a whole lot of trouble with a triangle of females all around him: Baby Girl, Chyna, & Porsche. Porsche Hilton fell in love with a thug by the name of André Chin he treated her like a queen while she did her best to make his illegal business are made into a legit situation but when she finds out that both Baby Girl and Chyna Porsche allows her jealous raise to get the best of her almost causing her very own life. Chyna was down for whatever but when her man gets locked up she finds herself in Chin's arms and allowing her to do all those things Pitbull did for her before being on locked down but when Chin makes her make a decision she swears on vengeances for what's hers. Natalie "Baby Girl" Smith was on the mission of finding her parent's killers and she would go through hell to make them pay even if it meant taking her own life to the edge to get payback. She is determine to get vengeances with the surroundings of her best friends or her so called friends Dimples & Sandy. She gets herself involved in the street game but her mission was to come out on top.

After taking deadly beatings, Porsche, Dimples, & Baby Girl put into action the perfect plan to take over the empire that Chin has built leaving a Queen and a King but all fear would come from the sister with a vengeance but would her King question her. Kiniesha Gayle writes the near perfect tale. The story kept me wanting to know more I would have given the book a five accept for the minor editing problem through out the book but Ms. Gayle is said to have a sequel to King of Spades that I defiantly can't wait to read.
