Summary: Potential
Review: It's a little too convenient that she just happens to have all these sexy shoes & dresses, being under her grandfather's watchful eye. Jeanette never shared how she lost her virginity. Juan became REAL corny over Angelica but female writers have the WORST habit of doing that (the main reason why I only read male authors' books). Eavesdrop on a man's conversation if you're going to attempt to talk from his perspective. But this author can entertain me because the part about Marcus was the best part of the story! I wish the author would write a story about Marcus!

Summary: For Love of Money
Review: Nina Foxx's sophomore novel, GET SOME LOVE, tells the story of southern girl Angelica Chapee. Shattered and caught off guard by the death of her beloved grandfather, Angelica is even more surprised to find out what he stipulated in his will. It appears Angelica's grandfather has left her quite a bit of money; however, she will have to meet his unconventional conditions before she can reap the benefits. Meanwhile, the Bronx native Juan Delgado is in town for a huge contract with a gospel convention for his family business, Delgado Cleaners. Juan is reluctant to take over the family business; he'd rather be a saxophonist. His best friend James, who accompanied him to Baton Rouge for the convention, seems a more likely candidate to run the dry cleaning plants after Juan's father retires. Juan and Angelica meet by happenstance. GET SOME LOVE is a novel of self-love and common sense. Intertwined with the circumstances that Angelica and Juan are dealing with is an intense and suspenseful sub-plot. The main characters were lucid and approachable in a way a good friend might be. I felt myself wanting to give them both advice on how to handle their situations. I enjoyed GET SOME LOVE, and think Nina Foxx has given her readership an entertaining and eye-opening book.

Summary: GET REAL!!!
Review: This book was cute...and that's it. The book has 2 main characters, Angelica and Juan who don't even meet until the very end! The author spends a lot of time on each character individually which makes you think that Juan is the answer to Angelica's prayers...but he turns out to be just another man. Yes she likes him but there is really nothing special that happens between them that made me like the book. Sure this book is funny at times, but it's pretty predictable. You know that her grandfather doesn't REALLY want her to lose her virginity so you know that there is a lesson to be learned. The end of the book leaves you hanging...Yea she tied all the characters together in the end but I wanted to know more. Let somone tell you about the book and read something else. It's a cute story but GET REAL!!
