Description

My best friend's husband, Easton, stares me down. "Shal, Jamaican just texted me. He was at this door. Did you just close the door on Jamaican Jones? After you made him unload your damn luggage?"

All I want is to get my problem off my chest. Is that so much to ask? "Whoever he is, I was probably doing him a favor. Handling my Gucci is the most important thing he'll do all summer."

"Shallon," East warns, "before I go get him, you need to understand one of the biggest players in the league is not one of your simps. All right?"

The salt off my margarita glass disappears on my tongue. "I'll be the judge of that."

For Beverly Hills princess Shallon Jacobs it'll be another hot girl summer. She gives zero flips what other people think of her so-soft-it's-Charmin spoiled girl life. Born into L.A.'s entertainment royalty, groomed in Southern California's top schools, she's never had to care.

Until one devastating wallop sends her BMW spinning out of control. On the other side of those three point eight seconds, lies another world—a wrecked woman trapped behind her steering wheel, and panicking. Shallon doesn't have to give a damn, but a lifetime of careless mistakes come to bear on what the woman asks her to do. She must decide: Whether to help this woman, or strut off toward another carefree summer.

When Jamaican Jones learns what's occurred, Shallon's beach season turns into a three-way collision.

An aging Jamaican nears the end of his NBA career, and on top of internal turmoil he's already battling, now he's hit with this life-altering revelation. Will he remove his longtime emotional shackles, and cut off his longest love? Add to that how he is stuck dealing with a spoiled Beverly Hills diva.

The matchup drags Shallon head-to-head with her privilege, and draws a love out of her that she never imagined. But as the day of judgment looms for them all, can a woman who has everything accept that she might lose her greatest gift this time?

Fun, funny, and sensual, this romantic women's fiction is the second book of The Young & Luxurious series. Everyone's favorite princess had better grow up. Fast.
