In the ghetto, you must wait until you get your section eight, trying to survive as best as you can, but there’s no hope when living in the hood.-UnknownKera Somers has big dreams of living above her poverty-stricken community. With an alcoholic mother and two younger siblings, she’s forced to grow up a lot sooner than she imagined. Being a celebrity stylist seems so far out of reach that she’s on the verge of giving up. It’s not until she enters a freelance fashion show that her dreams start to look like reality, and seeing her childhood boyfriend is only the icing on the cake as she falls head over heels for him. But things are never as beautiful as they seem.Kamil “K Millz” Moring is a rapper who’s coming to the end of his rope with the music industry. With his contract with GMT Records coming to an end, he’s now ready to settle down and enjoy the fruits of his labor. Deciding to help his sister with her fashion career, he sees the beautiful and meek Kera Somers and never imagines she will be the one he considers settling with. However, getting her to see him for the man he is proves to be more complicated than he imagines.In Kera’s world, no good thing lasts forever. The person she sees forever with is now looking like the end for her. Feeling as though love just isn’t in the cards for her, she shuns the idea of ever falling in love again. Will Kamil be able to break through the walls she has built around her heart? Or has the very man she loved and trusted ruined her for everybody? Read more

  • Gorgeous cover, good read!
Format: Kindle
adventurous emotional reflective sad medium-paced Plot- or character-driven? A mix Strong character development? N/A Loveable characters? Yes Diverse cast of characters? Yes Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes Rating: 4.0 I enjoyed reading this novella. Rose Dior is a new author to me, this book is the first I have read from her. What gripped me first of all was the cover!! Ruined, follows the story of Kera Somers. Kera has lived a hard life in her 21 years. She is struggling to care for her two younger sisters and attend college. While they live at home, their mother has never showed them love, rather she loves her bottle. One day, Kera attends a show with her best friend, Lai. There she runs into her old childhood crush Stefan and also rapper KMillz. Both guys are interested in her, but will she be able to choose the correct guy for herself? This story ends on a cliff and I can't wait to start reading book 2. ... show more

  • Great read!
Format: Kindle
This was a really good book if you can get past the abuse. I say that because it’s really real life. I recently sat down with a young girl who is only 14 and going through this. This book is a great awareness for someone reading who is in this situation or knows of someone dealing with this kind of trauma. I hate it ended like it did and I hope there is another book to read about how things turned out. One thing the author did well was highlight how a person can change their situation even if they come out of a bad environment. ... show more

  • Emotional!!!
Format: Kindle
Kera has been going through a lot having an alcoholic mother and taking care of her sisters due to the alcohol taking over their mother's life. Kera deserved better, but unfortunately, she ran into her childhood crush, Stefan, who turned out to be a trifling a$$ 🥷🏾. I just wished Kamil was able to step to Kera first like he wanted to because it was love at first sight for him. I'm so happy that Kera did have a ride or die friend in Laila. We all need someone like Laila to hype up our life like she did Kera's. Kyla and Devin could kick rocks for all I cared and they both needed several hands. I can't wait for Kera to come to her senses and get with Kamil. Ms. Dior has written such an emotion-packed story that I'm anxiously waiting for Part 2. ... show more

  • Good
Format: Kindle
Good book, but I'm not happy it was a cliffhanger. The author should identify that. I would like to decide whether or not I want to read it before the next book is released. It sometimes takes authors too long, and I practically have read through the prior book.

  • A good read!
Format: Kindle
This was a good read, don't like how it ended, I hate to be left not knowing and having to wait but I will say this Kyla was a sad excuse for a mother or a woman, blaming her kids for having them when she's the one who got them to begin with. Also, she let Devin the suspected pedophile come back around after leaving her and her girls high and dry to live in the projects for 10 years, chile please, pitiful mother! Stefan seems like a liar and Kera better get hip to players real fast! Not sure what will happen between her and Kamill but she's silly not at least try and see! I hope the next book will be released soon if it hasn't yet! ... show more

I know after all the bull Kera has been through she not about to let this man play in her face! I'm perturbed at the moment, but I'm going to see what happens next.

Kera and her sisters have been through A LOT! This makes for a very interesting story…to be young. It’s good to know that through everything Kera has a true friend. I can’t wait to see what happens in the next installment.

  • Kera! Smh Oh Kera!
Format: Kindle
Dysfunctional households really mess with our childhood. Kera really allowed that boy to kiss her, on the lips at that, not knowing where his mouth had been smh. I thank GOD for my mother, fathers, uncles, cousins, friends, etc. She just met up with this boy and just gave him her virginity. Lack of guidance and love have these girls and boys just accepting anything from their loved ones. A man will do what you allow him to do as you are showing him how to love and treat you. If you don't love and respect yourself did why would he? That man showed her that he is living foul and she is talking about, she loves him when she doesn't even know that man smdh.... I wouldn't even be interested in her anymore if I were Kamil because she is too naive. Talking about his house is being renovated....smh And y'all don't come with that how she still in her twenties. With the life she has endured and her being supposedly guarded, that man played her too easy out of virginity. Awaiting part two... ... show more
