Love and Basketball

By: Jhon L. Rose

Narrated by: Emmanuel Ingram

When young TaSean Prince is unexpectedly summoned to Miami by a cousin he hasn’t seen since childhood for a basketball tournament, the lure of a sizable cash prize winds up being too lucrative an offer to pass up.

Once in town, the Brooklyn-born baller catches the eye of stunning local model Nina Ortiz. The two hit it off somewhat, but TaSean quickly falls back after learning Nina is taken, deciding instead to turn his affections toward an equally good-looking mixed girl he meets later on named Alexus.

Alexus, as it turns out, is also a Brooklyn native, much to TaSean’s delight. The two soon begin dating, a move that provokes Nina’s melancholy. Despite already being in a relationship, she just can’t seem to shake her ever-growing feelings for TaSean. Meanwhile, as the tournament commences, TaSean is approached by a few NBA scouts, wanting to offer him the opportunity of a lifetime - an opportunity that may be put in jeopardy by his new girlfriend’s dark secrets.

Why the cliffhanger?

For the most part, everything was going good until the end ending why the cliffhanger? One of my favorite narrator is the reason I chose this book not please ending!!!

The things I do for Emmanuel

I only listened this because I have exhausted Emmanuel catalog. I am so over terrible narration that Emmanuel and Wesleigh are my pallet cleansers.

It's funny that in the description it says Alexus is mixed, but the book says she's white. anyway this book is inconsistent and only worth it because of the narration.

?

I didn’t like Alexis calling TaSean the n-word or the fact that she was a white woman using the n-word PERIOD! This really could have been a good story....a lot was missing to me...simply put, the story was incomplete...I enjoyed this narrator, he’s narrated a few other stories I’ve enjoyed.

Where's the rest 😔

Some of the story line was not realistic. And the cliffhanger end was a little weird. But Emmanuel made it worth listening to 🥰.

unfinished story

Narrator was good other than that the story wasn't finished get you hooked to leave you not knowing the end results.
