Hood Love Booshie Style by Mickey Dee by Mickey Dee
Rhonda’s life took a major turn at 13 when her doctor diagnosed her with bipolar disease. Her periods of high energy and moodiness fraught with drama drove most of her boyfriends from her during her high school years in California. Rhonda had the gorgeous face reminiscent of Los Angeles models and a desirable body with curves in all the right places. She appealed to most men. Rhonda’s dating life consisted of kissing a lot of frogs and struggles with relationships, at least until she attended her community home owner’s association meeting where she first laid eyes on Alonzo. He had just inherited his late uncle’s condominium in her building where his hope was to start fresh, escaping his past. Alonzo’s past was a hard one. He’d been a ruthless and scandalous thug whose life was quickly spinning out of control and eventually landed him in prison. He’d been skilled in the art of deception and lying to attempt to sleep with as many women as he could. It helped that his physique appealed to most women. Handsome and well-proportioned, his smile could light up a room and his shoulders and six-pack had women stunned. The ladies just knew he was blessed. Could a rejuvenated yet troubled Rhonda find the sensational love she deserved? Could she tame the desire-laden cravings of Alonzo? Would the former football star/inmate revert to his old habits and have his manly way with Rhonda?
