I would say just about any book by Omar Tyree. A lot of his books start off slow and just end up disappointing me but Flyy Girl was off the hook!! That was the best book he ever wrote and For The Love of Money was the worst

^^^Yeah, Flyy Girl was definately his claim to fame. And the sequal, "For The Love of Money" was hot boo boo. And another one by him, "Just Say NO" about this singer dude, was a big NO NO itself. lol.

I liked "Just Say No"...it was sad at the end though.

I didn't like "For the Love of Money" or "Yo-Yo Love."

I understand that we all have our own opinions but how can you say Yo-Yo love and B-More careful were horrible.I think they were good books. The characters had issues but overall they were good!! I have to agree with everyone that didn't care for Thieves Paradise it was a disappointment after reading his other work but I actually liked Between Lovers.
