King of the City: Even Gangstas Fall in Love, Paperback/Kia Jones

Descriere

How to love a gangsta? Rule number one...you don't. Brooklyn native, King Gibbs is the son of a ruthless ex-kingpin and proves to be just as deadly. With his good looks and slick tongue comes much deeply rooted pain. At a young age, he found himself raising his junkie mother when she was supposed to be the one providing love and care to him. But no matter how much of a screw up she was, he understood that this life only gives you one mother. After her death and a domino effect of other unfortunate situations, he packs up and moves to Texas with his step-mother and sister. There he finds more chaos but still manages until circumstances forces his hand, and he's forced to finish what his father started over twenty-one years ago. Roxanne has everything that she needs in life but not everything that she wants. Until she meets King. Every rule that she had, he broke. Each wall she built, he tore down. Clearly, he's no good for her but it's something about him that keeps her intertwined in his world. Roxanne's only wish is to turn his cold heart warm. Unbeknown to her, Kings only wish is the total opposite.
