Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Back in the hood but movin' on up, Tasha and Trae Macklin have reformed somewhat but are still in urban grit mode. In Clark's latest street lit, her fourth novel in the Thug series, the couple's moved to L.A. although Trae briefly returns to the East Coast for some revenge killing after his cousin Shaheem's murdered. Three years later, Tasha has three children and it's all good except Trace opens up a flashy nightspot, Club New York. To do this, he makes a connection with Charles Li, a Chinese mobster, and his dangerous daughter, Charli. Then Sabeerah, a devious young witness to Trae's New Jersey crime, moves to L.A. and tries to blackmail Trae. In another plot line Det. Rick Bryant, the couple's neighbor, gets involved with Kyra, Tasha's old friend, whose hubby, Marvin, is using drugs. Clark, who started her writing career while incarcerated, depicts Tasha's travails and Kyra's problems with a brutally honest squint, but it's hard to care about extra thuggy Trae. (Aug.)

Not so surprising progression of the primaries in this book; horrible narration(sorry)

ByILoveMyAudibleKindleon January 5, 2016

Format: Audible Audio EditionVerified Purchase

The characters fell victim to the pitfalls of greed and the author did what she was supposed to do. Show the "ugly" side of greed, infidelty and abuse. I know the physical abuse is what stood out for alot in this book. However, I thought Trae and Tasha had a warped/slightly verbally abusive relationship. I may think a bit different I'm sure. I know some don't see the use of the n-word and telling someone to shut up or the bullying the women to "obey" in the name of love or the biting of the cheek until a mark is left , all those things to some are not signs of abuse. Because Trae says he loves her, his heart is in the right place and he spoils her, it makes everything ok? I can honestly say I was not shocked when Trae put his hands on her. It just seemed like it had to happen with those two. I saw Tasha's infidelty as her acting out against the constant bullying she received from Trae. I say bullying, because while she had a hand in getting pregnant- Trae told her to not get the shot after they knew pills did not work for her. Trae told her that her dreams of a clinic needed to be put on hold a little bit longer yet again. So the progression of the abuse did not shock me, nor did the extreme way Tasha acted out. You know when women are fed up, we strike for blood. I know many won't agree with me. Trust my small book club had a lively debate over the things I pointed out as instances that could be considered abuse. I was more distracted by the narration of this book. Cary Hite has narrated the other books and the characters had individual personalities. The narration drew you in to the characters and the story. The narration of this book was extremely rough. It completely changed the way I looked at the characters as well.

Great Read!!!

ByTurquoise Bon September 30, 2016

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Let me say that I will always be a Wahida fan. I have read all of her books. I fell in love with Trae, Tasha, Kaylin, Angel and the rest of the crew in the first 3 books. Those characters are not recognizable in Thug Lovin'. I hated Trae, was disappointed in Tasha, disgusted by Marvin and saddened by Kyra. What Trae did to Tasha at the end of the book was unacceptable. Why take such a loved character and have him beat his wife the way he did? The Tasha that we know would never have accepted that behavior from him.The characters fell victim to greed, lust, pride and disrespect. Overall the book was awesome.

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Trae and Tasha really disappointed me in this book. That bitch Charlie Li was a bold one. But whahida you pulled it off again. Trae messed up royally , but Tasha really went the extra mile. I have read all the Thug series book hard copy, I had to get every last one on kindle. They are ALL good. You want be able to sit the book down.

Great, great book

BySierra Lon August 6, 2015

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Ms. Clark!!!!! Girl you killin me but I am enjoying it! Great, great book, I have been meaning to read the rest of the series but I always forgot about it. I am glad I got with it though because I was missing out. I love all of the characters but, from the first book to the rest, I have notice how the second to this book the story has been kind of focused on Roz and Angel. I miss hearing about Jaz, and Kyla and what going on with them (even though Kayla is more in this book). Great book!!! THUMPS UP!

P.S. check out her payback series, great as well.

D@mn Shame!!!!!

ByMsCharmyon February 25, 2010

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I wanna start like alot of others did and say i am the biggest wahida clark fan. I have read all the books they were all fabulous she is my favorite author and this book was just a damn shame. They turned are trusted characters into people that we can't stand the love between these chaaracters in the last three books was so strong so passinate and then to read this book and it was completley the oppisite Trae was the most dissipointing to me cheating always lying and beating on tasha come on thats not him atleast not the trae we all knew an loved. Angel and Kaylin fell off the face of the earth in this book they were barely in here this book was all about lies cheating and deception. They turned are sexy smart women into weak selfish hoes who let guys they barely know get between there legs. Thats not the characters we knew and loved this makes me like dang is the next book worth it. This book was just a damn shame I cant belive it wahida come on this really. Then that phyco in the middle of the book she wasnt even important she coulda been left out. This was a utter disipointmet my sister told me to get it from the librarey but i wanted to own it with this book i wish i would have listened to her I'm sorry wahida to bash your work like this but your my favorite author please next time step your game up we all know you can do better than this disaster you called Thug Lovin there was no love in this book at all
