Connecticut Kings, Book 1

De: Love Belvin

Narrado por: Elyce Anthony, Winston James

Meet Trent Bailey, who is fighting for the right to continue his stellar professional football career after enduring striking legal woes in the recent past. Trent cannot and will not blow his second chance for anyone; after all, this is the blessing he's been praying for. After receiving confirmation that staying focused is all he needs, it's what he aims to do. No distractions. That's until he bumps into two unexpected overnight guests.

Jade Matthews is doing everything she can for herself and her young son, Kyree. After journeying through her own bumps in the road, she's finally getting it together. She's doing what she has to do to make sure her family of two stays afloat. Life's setbacks won't stop Jade from providing for her little one, even though she fumbles each pass thrown at her.

What starts out as a temporary favor turns into rapid passion. There's one agenda here, but getting to the same meeting point has never been more difficult. Fighting their way through trust and self-esteem issues, the two must meet in the right zone; the red zone, where you may think you're safe, but life has a way of intercepting blessings and . . . turning the tide.

Contains mature themes.

Love Belvin is the GOAT.

I originally read this book after exhausting all my LB options on audio. Yes, this woman made me an actual reader again because I simply could not get enough. This book was a bit different than her regular style in the fact that she built them up in the one book vs the serials.
getting to it....
I love me some TB.... Jade on the other hand, not so much. I don't like how she won at failing! she left her upper middle class house to be a hood rat and teenage baby momma, pinning her life on a dope boy, failed at that and then won by finding a professional athlete to pin her life on. She forced herself on him when he was just being a good guy helping her out. I aint saying she's a gold digger. but.... Not only that she then decides (after putting on a facade that she wants to do something with her life for herself) she just wants to be a homemaker and not go to work. She is a, manipulative liar.

**And this grievance is me being petty-- I can't stand when a man is more than 10 inches taller than his partner. it's just a waste of height and man for a 6'5" fide to be with a 5' woman.

Now I understand that Trent needs someone in his life that goes hard for him, and That's part of Jades personality, or whatever.

I'll see if I like Jade, when End zone comes to audio. I originally skipped rhat one because, Jade.

now the narration. Winston is always a solid choice. I'm pretty sure he pronounced Ragee's name wrong. that irked me.
the female narration was weird. that's all.

But overall the writing is masterful and emotion producing, I'm happy to be apart of Trents journey.

Trent & Jade

I believe this was my first Love Belvin story & first intro to Pastor ☺️

Trent and Jade story is filled with everything found family, 2nd chances, healing and redemption, blended family. Several characters from other story pop in. I can’t wait for part II to come to audio.

So awesome!

The narrators make you feel like you're watching a movie. They really did a great job with telling the story of Trenton and Jade. I enjoyed it immensely.

Another great story!!

This was another hit!! Trent is added to my nook bae list...lol .Love Belvin has my ears in a chokehold!! I loved this story and the progression of Trent and Jade. Jade worked my nerves for a min, Loved the narration Winston is the reason I chose this book!! go ahead use the credit!! You will not be disappointed!!🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️

Good Read

Love Belvin haven't disappointed me yet. I have heard about Trent in a lot of story's and he story wasn't what I expected. I thought it would be more like passionate like Ragee. But i still love the delivery.

The Narration

I liked the story but not the female narrator. Wesleigh Siobhan would have been much better.

Another One

LB is the GOAT jus phenomenal writing always. She don’t miss I love Red Zone like I loved all the others.

Love The Baileys

Looooove Trent & Jade….Love this story….Love’s pen is wicked! Winston is phenomenal as always with his narration and voicing Trent….BUT, that female narrator wasn’t it! Winston saved my story

Love in the Redzone 💕🏈

I was so excited to see one of my favorite book series by one of my favorite authors coming to audio and was not disappointed. The narration was on point and flowed beautifully. I love Winston James and Elyce Anthony as narrators, so having them voice Trent and Jade was an absolute pleasure.

This is a story of redemption, growth, and insta-love. Jade and Trent had a lot of learning and growing to do when it came to trusting someone with the most vulnerable parts of themselves. From difficult family dynamics to interference from the media and ex-lovers, they had a lot stacked against them. It's refreshing to see a love story that doesn't shy away from depicting the ups and downs of a relationship: the good, the bad, and the ugly. Highly recommended.

Roughing the passer

Jade is a go-getter. She maybe down but she most definitely is not out. And Trent is just sweet, thrown away by the ones that should have treasured him the most.
