The Dopeman's Wife

by JaQuavis Coleman

Book Overview

Once the streets pull you in, they own you. Or at least that's the way it's been for Nautica. Growing up in the hood, all she's ever known is the fast life--fast money ill-gotten through scandals and relentless scheming.

Review only on the condition of the book

It's definitely an older worn copy. It was in okay condition with personal items still left inside.

Couldnt get any better than this!!!

This book was so hot,I cant even explain how I feel right now after reading this! All I have to say is that Jaquavis did an EXCELLENT job and the ending was great and very unpredictable...finally a book with an actual ending!This is one book that u will not want to put down!

The life of a Dopeman's Wife....

I have always loved the novels by Ashely & Jaquavis. Jaquavis did his thing in this solo effort. I literally could not put this book down it was HOT!!! Nautica starts off as a stripper/fast food worker who is looking for a way to come up. Nautica hits the jackpot,scores some major cash and has to flee Flint in a hurry. Nautica heads to Baltimore and soon meets and falls in love with Tical Manny, Tical is the MAN in BMORE and he is holding down the drug game and making millions in the process. Nautica and Tical are soon in love and living together. Only Tical thinks Nautica is sweet and naive to the street life. Nautica's past will come knocking at her door and she will go to great lengths to keep Tical from knowing the truth!! I can't say anything about this novel that wasn't already said but it is worth the money and it is a good read! I am hoping that there will be a sequel if possible! The ending caught me off gaurd and was shocking!! This is what I call real street fiction!

Great book by one of the best!!!!!!!!

This book from page 1, grabs you and doesn't let you go. JaQuavis Coleman is a great writer and this one is a classic. Tical was a man that I fell in love with and the twist at the end i couldn't never guess. Hated the way it ended, but in all it was a great book. JaQuavis did a great job on his first solo project. I love everything Ashley and JaQuavis do, together or apart. GO BUY THIS BOOK!! It was worth every penny

Astonishing ending!!!

I enjoyed the novel. The ending was outy of the norm. Great mind to do dsomething like that. I will be buying more of his books.

What! What!

Dopeman's Wife was str8 fiya! There is no other way to describe this fantastic read. From the very first page when naughty Nautica was scheming to the very last sentence I was into this book. It was glued to my hand and I did not put it down until it was over. This book is like a roller coaster ride. It played with my emotions and made my heart drop in the process and the twists and turns kept me in suspense. Just when I thought I knew what would happen next the entire book would change pace and throw me for a loop. Tical was my favorite character. He was so smooth and so fine. He was a thug with a business man's finesse and made all the girl's panties get wet, but he only had eyes for his leading lady Nautica. Unfortunately for Nautica sleeping dogs wouldn't lie because her past came back to bite her in the butt big time. When Loon showed up at her man's door the blackmail and torture began. This was an original read and there was not a bland moment in the book. Don't sleep on this one. JaQuavis is one of the best authors out. Hands down, the best book of the year so far!
