Product Description
From one of the hottest voices in contemporary fiction, a novel about love and redemption.

Lance is doing just fine for himself in New Orleans, except that he can't stop thinking about the one girl who broke his heart-and their engagement. When she found out about his bad-boy past-a past that included one of her best friends-she called the whole thing off.

Now he's on a quest to win her back with a little help from his best friend Akhet, an ex-thug turned local rap star. But when Akhet suddenly has to face some unfinished business from his former life, Lance learns a dangerous lesson: Before you can start on the future, you have to put the past to rest.

Never Read Eric Pete Before, But Now I'll Be On The Lookout

This book kept me up all night trying to see what would happen next between Lance and Val, Akhet and Kyne, Renika and Vaughn - and all the characters involved.

"Gets No Love" pulled me in from the first page. After reading that, there was no way I was putting the book down.

This is my first time reading anything written by Eric Pete, but it definitely won't be my last time!

Not worth your money

This is the most boring book he has written.The best part about this book was litteraly the end. It sucked all the way through. It lost my attention .
IT'S NOT WORTH YOU MONEY, I WISH I COULD GET A REFUND!

Story that many of us can relate to - full of emotions.

"Gets No Love" was impressive. If truth be told, this book wasn't necessarily my first pick after learning the story line included a "rap star". However, after reading "Someone's In The Kitchen", also by Eric Pete, I was curious. Let me be the first to say, preconceived or stereo-typed ideas could cause you to miss out on this great read. A novel that is about lives we and or our loved ones have likely been exposed to. At the end of chapter 42 I was joyful, but quickly there was a turn. Emotions from sadness with tears to happiness roamed back and forth through me until the last page. You have to read the whole book to understand the emotions and yours could start in the beginning, midway or towards the end. Find out for yourself.

INCREDIBLE!!

This book was the next best thing to being there! It will leave you wanting more. I felt like I was there with the characters the whole time. Being deeply in love with someone can make you so vunerable. The story was incredible and I could relate to the setting in New Orleans, it just brought everything in so clearly, the street names, parks, projects, it was all so real to me. Can't wait to start reading "Someone's in the Kitchen and Real To Me. Thanks Eric, keep up the good work.
