About this ebook

Four smart young women looking for love navigate the smooth-talking players of New Jersey’s infamous Brick City in this gritty urban series debut.
 
Stunning, sweet, and pampered as a princess, Sasha is a hood’s treasure. So why did the love of her life suddenly cut her loose? And if she knew the answer, would she be strong enough to stay away?
 
Flawless, fashionable, and strong, Tatum swore she'd never let herself love the wrong man. But she can’t help falling for a calm, cool, connected, killer.
 
Originally from LA, Neli’s got a Valley Girl drawl and a deceptively innocent beauty. There’s one East Coast dude she's got more than her eye on—and who cares if he belongs to someone else?
 
Thick in all the right places, Kim is ghetto fabulous and she knows it. And she doesn’t give it away for free. A leader at nineteen, you don't want to get on her bad side.
 
Over one hot summer, these girlfriends rely on each other to get through—but when secrets and betrayals are exposed, can they survive the truth?
 
“Thicker Than Water is an urban chick flick waiting to happen. Takerra paints a gritty, true-to-life portrayal of friendship and betrayal.” —Dutch (Kwame Teague, author of the Dutch Trilogy)

Ratings and reviews

Ive never read a book that kept me up all night until the wee hours of the day reading. I never wanted to put the book down.... a very good read

This book feels like reality how we always look for a fairytale in our relationships, in life and then reality hits you. Nothing will be perfect and you have a choice to live the life how you want it. A definite read! Cop book 2 so glad its a sequel

This was the best book of books. Long and very well thought out. Write another I'd Def pay for it. I've read all in just 2 days couldn't stop
