Nothing Like His Down South Loving


Rikenya Hunter - 2018
    Cherry wasn’t sure how she would be able to go on with life, but her daughter, Angel, and her boyfriend of two years, Devonte, gave her the strength to go on. Devonte was Cherry’s first love and first everything. He was all she knew. Her mother couldn’t stand him and often voiced her opinion, feeling as if her daughter deserved better, but Cherry lived and breathed Devonte. Besides her daughter, Devonte was her life. That was until she ran into an unforgettable bad boy, Javi. Not able to get him out of her mind, Cherry does everything in her power to forget about the mystery man who has caught her eye, but everywhere she turns, Javi is there. Can she stay faithful to the one guy who everyone seems to hate yet she loves? Can she avoid temptation? Javi wasn’t your average man. Decorated in tattoos from head to toe, tall, decked out in the flyest and finest jewelry and fashion, no kids, muscular and downright fine, he would stop any woman dead in her tracks. Not one for relationships, Javi also wasn’t the one for love. Being the man in the streets, he was always about his paper. Growing up poor, he refused to ever struggle again in life. He was content with just his cars and his money, but bumping into Cherry made him rethink everything pertaining to women, but there was just one thing stopping him: her boyfriend. Cherry’s best friend Kabrina is madly in love with a guy who doesn’t want her, so when she found herself pregnant, alone and confused, she contemplated whether to keep her baby. Having an unfaithful baby daddy certainly didn’t help. Plagued by drama, secrets and lies, will Kabrina keep her baby? You haven’t lived yet until you get a man from the dirty south. After all, there’s nothing like some down south loving.
