Power

De: Kenya Wright

Narrado por: Kevin T. Collins, Angel Cochrane

Mary Jane, a struggling comedienne, stumbled into the wrong club at the wrong time. She didn't notice the gangster gripping the gun and the two scary men on his sides. She just jumped on the stage, tested the microphone, and went into her routine. And that's where things got interesting.

Noah was the gangster that gripped the gun. The beast of Din City. The boss of the streets. The one who ruled them all from the North to the South. Not liking to murder women, he'd now been thrown into an uncomfortable situation. She'd accidentally become a witness to something she shouldn't have seen. She'd now become a problem.

Yet, their gazes met, and their hearts faltered, thump, thumping in their chest like a tune beat out from bullets slicing through the air and bodies crashing to the ground. Their gazes met, and things would never be the same for him or her - or the streets. Their gazes met, and he decided not to kill her; instead, he took her on a journey where sex meets the rhythm of the streets, high to low, smooth to rough, growing inside of them both until they're not sure if any of them will survive - him, her, or those bloody streets.

Awesome gangsta love story!

The story itself was fire! It was insane reading how Mary Jane had not only the hardest sexiest Crime Kingpin wrapped around her little finger, but she got his most loyal killers looking at her like the little sister they must protect!
The strange jokes that start each chapter were crazy!
I truly felt bad for Noah. The choice he was faced with in the beginning wasn't an easy one. Thank goodness Mary Jane stepped in when she did.
I wasn't to crazy about the narrators. Their voices didn't really do much for the story. I guess, I was to used to the narrators from her other story, Redemption.
All in all, it was amazing!

This book is sooooo good

There is nothing I didn’t like about this book. I enjoyed it from the Beginning and ending of this personal story. I just finished it today and I’m so sad I wanted more. I don’t want this book to end it soooo good. I’m losing so much sleep, but Kenya Wright books are so worth it!

A little dark and very humorous

MJ and Noah are hilarious. Their inner dialogues had me cracking up throughout the entire book. I see some mixed reviews with the other reviewers. People seem to either love this book or hate it.
First of all, the writing was awesome. It is a good read. I think the problem some people has with this audio version is the narration. I actually liked Angel Cochrane's performance of MJ. And Kevin's performance of Noah reminded me of Wentworth Miller's (Prison Break) portrayal of Leonard Snart in DC Legends of Tomorrow. So now that is how I see Noah. Some may not have liked it but I felt the contrast of the narrators' voices made the book enjoyable as they both gave you a picture in your mind of how the characters may look.

Anyway, I found the book to be very humorous. The way MJ even came into Noah's life was hilarious and the scene with her and Fuji when she tried to escape had my side hurting. It was also a hot listen. Their chemistry with each other was really good. The only thing I didn't care for was MJ's jokes. They were a tiny bit foul but not that bad. Just not my cup of tea.

The overall plot was good girl changes bad boy but the journey of their unconventional romance made for a very interesting read. For those that didn't like it because of what they perceive to be unrealistic, get over it. It is a work of fiction and comes from the mind of a writer. If this story is not for you, thats okay. Just say its not for you. No need to call it rubbish. Remember someone's rubbish is another person's treasure.
I for one thoroughly enjoyed it. I love BWWM books but it's hard to find good narrated versions of them on Audio. This was actually not bad as far as the performance goes and I would listen to both narrators again.
Kenya Wright's books are not new to me as I have several of her books on my Kindle. This is, however, my first audiobook by her and I would say it is worth a credit.

very real technical issues with this recording.

That's the part that really stands out and interrupts the narration. Esp the female narration.

Overall though, the story was okay. I kinda liked how it delved I to the super/preternatural. Wish there was more from the start.

A True Struggle

Audible owes me 1 point! This was a true struggle as the narrators were the worst I have ever listened to. Mr. Collins sounded like an older actor, who had too many lozenges in his mouth and had smoked way too many cigarettes, auditioning for a Shakespearean play! He was totally unbelievable as a ruthless powerful gangster kingpin. He was the better and most tolerable narrator. Ms. Cochrane was slow, unsure, monotonous, tiring and boring as she narrated her parts of the story from a barrel or more likely her bathtub. Ms. Wright's story suffered due to their poor performances. I gave an overall grade of 3 stars out of respect for Ms. Wright and her pure talent! This would be a better read than listen!
