Heart of a Goon

De: Jahquel J.

Narrado por: Wesleigh Siobhan, Winston James

Zoya:

Ever saw a dead body?

I’ll ask again.

Ever saw a dead body walking among us?

I’ve been dead on the inside since my parents were taken away from me, and I was forced to move out the only home I knew.

Never truly ever knowing love or what it felt like. Always witnessing everyone else have what you wished your heart could do.

Love.

That word love could walk up on me, snatch me up, and I wouldn’t have ever known. Me and that word didn’t exist, and I had come to terms with that when I watched them fighting to save my boyfriend’s life, after my brother nearly took it from him.

Again, love was never meant for me… Zoya Caselli.

Even the big dawg eventually got tired too…

Goon:

There was always love around.

My mother was a single mother to two boys, but there was always enough love to go around. Never being able to leave the house without giving her a kiss on the cheek or saying I love you. Even now, if I hadn’t spoken to her in a few days, she would call to remind me that she loved me.

Physical touch was my love language.

I needed it.

Had to have that shit.

I was Ms. Lawyer’s opposite in every way.

The way she avoided my touch ’cause she knew she would fall off the bones. She was scared to tap into that side of her heart. Shit was rusty because she avoided it at all costs. It was too dangerous for her to feel the love she knew she secretly desired.

Little did she know, I was coming for that heart, love, marriage, and those chocolate babies.

Zoya Caselli was gonna open her heart to me and become Zoya Wraithe.

Word to Sharon.

Omgoodness!!! My Cousin NEVER DISAPPOINTS

I’ve been purposely and patiently waiting for this book and it’s chef’s kiss!! Absolutely 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Comedy, drama, plot twist… it’s EVERYTHING!!! Jahquel does it again!!!

Cliff Hanger

How you do me like this??? I was on the edge of my seat and it ended. Loved this and all the books in the series… Goon was my guy!!

This is so good!

I have been waiting for this release, and I wasn’t disappointed. Two of my favorite narrators were on this so I know it was only good. There is a cliffhanger just so you know! Can’t wait for the next book.

Amazing writing

Jahquel does her big one again. I love a man who knows what he wants and doesn’t mind doing the work to get it. Zoya annoyed me with her dramatics and bratty ways but I guess some of it could be warranted because of her upbringing. I love menace and his bizarre ways of thinking, he makes me laugh.

The cliffhanger!!

I love the vulnerability and reassurance in this book. Talk about pressure applied! Breaking rules for “the one”. Goon is such a grade A book husband, and the way he talks her through it 🌶️🌶️🌶️ Geralddd. Soya has so much passion, high functioning depression and childhood trauma. She finally lets that man love her and begin healing her, she is worth it!
