The Lou is heading for a storm. After the judicial system fails to keep him behind bars, Kiley Jacoby Abrams in How Can I Be Down?, can be described as a weapon of mass destruction. Almost ten years later, he's made his way back home and searches for the ones who deceived him and plotted to bring him down. Staying on the right track, this time around, is not on his agenda. When Quincy's release date is near, due to the detective's screw-ups that led to his arrest, all hell is going to break loose. Without no justice, there certainly won't be no peace. Desmon, Kiley's now fifteen-year-old son, is determined to make sure there is no peace. He's furious about the life that was chosen for him, but continues to follow in his father's footsteps. Unable to keep his own self out of trouble, Kiley's life is bound to take a turn for the worst. His trust and love for women continue to be his downfall, but will he allow it to bring him down once again? He'll realize the power of his freedom, but by then, it just might be too late.

THIS BOOK LIVES UP TO IT'S TITLE,
By Beatrice Taylor "beauti4one" (St. Louis, MO United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: No Justice No Peace (Paperback)
No Justice, and no, there wasn't much peace. Only the gifted and talented Miss Brenda Hampton could pull off a book like this. That is why I appreciate her writing more than others because she can go from a lover boy novel, to writing a novel as gangsta-fied and realistic as this. There wasn't no sugar-coating or glorifying the events in this book. Killey's life was what he made it, and Miss Brenda sure didn't lie when she stated your heart will skip a beat. Mine surely did and I read this story in one day. I couldn't stop the tears from flowing down my face and the last time I can recall a work of fiction having such an impact on me was while watching Boyz In The Hood. It took my breath away when Morris Chestnut's character was shot, and this book made me feel the same way. I won't give details, but since Ms Hampton has a way of bringing readers into the story, I felt every bit of the drama, drama, and more drama. (The sex scenes were nice too. Poor Anna. If she couldn't hang then she should have given him to a sister who could)! I was there all the way to the end, as if Kiley was my man and Dezmon was my son. What a brave and unforgettable story. Great job, and once again, my applause to Miss Hampton for creating novels that will stay with readers forever.

By Rochelle "rwalton35" (Chicago/St Louis) - See all my reviews
This review is from: No Justice No Peace (Paperback)
What is there left to be said about Miss Brenda and her way of writing? EXCELLENT, OUTSTANDING, ENJOYABLE, REALISTIC, THE BOMB, OFF THE CHAIN, CREATIVE, GIFTED, TALENTED, RAW, GUTSY, DRAMA FILLED, AWESOME, AND SEXY, SEXY, SEXY. Of course, all of this has been said before about the lady who will deliver no matter what the genre is. I attached myself to No justice no Peace and right after I read it, I picked up How Can I Be Down and read it again. My weekend was enjoyalbe and I topped it off with Zane's latest read, Afterburn. I love these authors to the fullest. Their books are INCREDIBLALLYDELICIOUS! Now, that's a new word to add to the list of the greatest reads:

yet again,
By bookworms@home "miemie" (cleveland, ohio) - See all my reviews
This review is from: No Justice No Peace (Paperback)
this book will have you laughing, crying and wanting to choke the S*** out of Ginger. This book keeps you turning the pages. It is strongly suggested that you read this when you know you have the time and no one can bother you because you are not going to want to be bothered. This is a good enjoyment and a good read.
