Hoodwinked

All her life, Jasmine has been groomed in Atlanta’s high society to be the perfect woman of wealth. Soon to be married off to Percy Hugo Milton to keep money circulating between black families, she realizes she’s stuck in a dead-end relationship where he basically “ain’t shit”. Money matters most, marriage is nothing but a business deal, and love is nonexistent in Percy’s eyes. Not to mention he finds her particularly boring and uninspiring. Jasmine becomes desperate when she seeks the help of a spiritual guide, an eccentric witch named Delilah Skye who grants her three things she wants in life. Friendship, great sex, and true love. Yet, the reading doesn’t go as planned when Delilah informs Jasmine that everything she wants is hidden in the man she hates the most: Percy.

After a wild, drunken night in Atlanta a few years ago with some girl he never planned on seeing again, Homer Skye thought he had life figured out. He had the plans laid out to propose to his longtime girlfriend, Nasia Stewart, move her into a house, and start his family immediately. The all-American dream. That is, until he runs into his one-night stand, Pia Milton, and their two-year-old daughter he knew nothing about.

With the moon becoming full almost every night in Atlanta, things start to turn upside down as these two stories collide at the hands of black magic, family ties, and messy drama. Determined to find true love, Jasmine takes matters into her own hands by proposing a deal to her cheating fiancé. Pia has to come to terms with tolerating her child’s father and the black magic that runs deep in his crazy family. While Homer struggles with the thought of this woman who lied about their daughter for two years, she might just be the one he’s meant to be with all along.

Fine print: This story contains a little magic, belief in the impossible, and a few other random things and people that make up the story. Might be some hood shit in here, too, I don’t know. I say, just listen to it.

The storyline is good

I love this book, but could not get over the reader... took me a very long time to get through it. The reading fluency struggled to say the least and had me over correcting her in my head. I’d much rather read the actual book. If this series has the same reader for the next book, I’ll just take the two days to read it vs the 4 months it took to listen.

The Narrator Almost Ruined the Story

I read this book prior to the purchase of the audiobook and truly enjoyed it. 5 stars for the story itself however the narrator pronunciation of words took me completely out of the story instead of enhancing. In parts it felt like it was the first read through on the recording instead of a performance of the words. Very disappointing. I hope the author produces more audiobooks but with more focus on the quality and performance of the book.

LOVE LOVE LOVE

I love everything about this book, the narrators, the story everything. I can not wait to read the rest.

Need a sequel

This book kept me awake. Please tell me there will be a sequel because it’s necessary!

Great read

The book is amazing ! The narrator did it no good. I’ve read this book several times. It’s my comfort series . Definitely needs a new narrator. I love how chaotic this series is.
