The past catches up with them when an infamous drug lord threatens her family. She wants Marcus to launder her products through his business.

I loved The Game Never Ends. It was fast-paced, engaging, and suspenseful. The novel weaves betrayal, murder, and revenge into a gripping urban saga.

The Game Never Ends by Zaire Crown is book two in her The Game series, follow-up to Games Women Play. Though part of a series, it reads well as a standalone.

Tuesday Knight, former Detroit hood hustler, now lives in the lap of luxury in an affluent Hollywood suburb, as Tabitha King. She’s a mother of two and wife to the former drug kingpin now known as Marcus King. They’re living and loving big in their new legit life, until the past comes back with a vengeance. Is Tuesday going to be forced to return to her hood persona?

Zaire Crown has created a bit of magic in this continuation to her urban saga. Her characters are strong, vibrant and believable. The urban scenery is utilized to it’s advantage. The dialogue is vivid and has enough humor to occasionally ease the tense interplay. The plot is a contemporary romance melded with urban warfare and a conspiracy theory. This is a story of betrayal, murder, revenge and greed that has you rooting for the bad guys. Or are they the good guys? The ending is shocking and expertly sets up for future installments. There is some explicit content, but it’s totally appropriate for the story. I thoroughly enjoyed The Game Never Ends. I rate it 4 out of 5 stars and recommend it to everyone who enjoys multicultural and/or urban fiction.

My thanks to Kensington Books and NetGalley for the opportunity to read an advance copy of this book. However, the opinions expressed in this review are 100% mine and mine alone.

Tuesday's almost perfect life is shattered when her husband and family are haunted by people from their past. With their new identities they have worked so hard to run a legit and prosperous company. But when an old acquaintance comes along demanding a piece of their legit pie. Marcus makes a decision that changes the course of their lives. This book was a great sequel and it kept me page turning from the beginning to the end. Amazing read!!!

Marcus and Tuesday's marriage was unconventional. While she thought their marriage was safe, Tuesday learned she didn't know her husband at all. This was supposed to be their new life after starting over.
She made her share of mistakes, but they did not compare to what he did to his family. It's bad enough he has gone back to his old ways, but to involve his child is insane.

I had some doubts in the beginning, but after proceeding forward, I'm left wanting to know what finally happens.

There were some shocking and sad moments.

The Game Never Ends by Zaire Crown was a very great breakout urban fiction novel for her readers!! I was quickly captivated by this novel. I faced many emotions while reading this book. My maternal side cried out at so many points in this book but it showed the residual damage of the street life.

Urban fiction has always been filled with gut wrenching scenes and this book did not fell me in that endeavor. Seeing Tuesday and Marcus attempt at walking away for the street life was commendable....so we thought but the street definitely have a way of pulling you back in.

Some of the scenes were a little too fictional for an fictional book for me but overall it was a really good read!! I look forward to Tuesday's next challenge with "The Game that Never Ends!"
