They have done it again!!!! Classic Ashley and Jaquavis
Ashley and Jaquavis have proven themselves once again in this sequel. It will glue you to the seat your in and pull you right in. I got lost in the world of Diamond family and the murder mamis. Straight from page one you are refreshed with a quick recap and then thrusted right into the story to the very shocking end. I don't read and tell so get it for yourself and i promise you won't be disappointed. Can you say Classic. Well, I can so get ready to ride with the Cartel on another heart thumping ride through another page turner. Great jobs once again to these two fantabulous authors.

Full of Drama -- and won't disappoint!
First let me say that the last 1 1/2 pages of the book really shocked me . . . and i'm not sure if it was in a good or bad way.

Having said that, I also have to say that Ashley and Jaquavis really put it down! This is definitely one of the best sequels I've seen in long time, and I'm thrilled that Cartel is actually being turned into a series!

Cartel 2 finally gives us the background on Miramor, the dark heroine of the first book. We all kno that Miramor is a member of the Murder Mamas, and now we kno how and why she became an assasin, and how the Murder Mamas started.

Thanks to the this book, Miramor becomes an even more sympathetic character, as we learn about her childhood, and understand fully the bond between her and her sister, Anisa. And the bittersweet romance between Zyir and Breeze becomes even more bittersweet!

And for those who loved Carter, well . . . let me say that a nu male character has been introduced in this book that we females are also going to fall in love with. And older characters step up their game even more.

Ashley and Jaquavis do an EXCELLENT job of giving us extensive background on the charaters, but at the same time moving the story forward. It's wonderful when a writer can give character development without it getting in the way of the plot, and Ashley and Jaquavis are indeed masters.

I also like the fact that they incorporated different locales in this book. . . New York, Miami, Jamaica. It makes it easy for readers from different parts of the country to easily relate to what's going on.

Have I alreay said I can't wait for Cartel 3? My only disappointment is I'll have to wait so long. It's not due to come out until June.

AAAAgh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
