She is the baddest B**CH her cousin/sister Oshyn what can I say. She was the refine woman from the hood. Don't get it twisted she would fight if you messed with her son, but step on her shoes she just walk away. This book is a 10. My co-workers and I couldn't get enough. ”

There's nothing worse than when someone starts something, it starts off good and strong and then....
I know. You were probably waiting on me to finish that sentence. Well that's how I felt when I got to the end of this book. I got to the end and wondered if my eyes were deceiving me. There must be some more pages. Maybe my copy was not complete. Uh...no. That's just the way it ended. Okay, so the premise of the book - you have two cousins, one good one bad, but they are both beautiful. The bad one is jealous of the good one, and the good one is oblivious. Good cousin gets the man, bad cousin wants him. Adding to the drama is the back story that their mothers had the same issue resulting in a tragic end. Will history repeat itself? Decent premise. The scene is set for some drama, some hateration, "oh no she didn't!" and a cat fight. Question is, what would Tiphani do with it?
"Millionaire Mistress" is an okay read at best. It had potential, but didn't come full circle. I liked the whole cousin rivalry, the differences in the two and the entrance of Brooklyn. Both cousins had it going on in their own rights and really had no reason to be stressing the other. I also liked the subplot of Apples. There were even a few twists that came at just the right time. What I did not like is that so much was left unsaid and unanswered. Ideas introduced and not completed. I wish the author had spent more time developing this story, given us some more insight on their mothers and more realistic outcomes. Gunshots and no police. Come on now; maybe in some parts but not in some of these locations. But my biggest complaint and what ultimately brings down the rating of this book is the ending. I don't even know if the word "rushed" accurately describes it. The ending appeared to be just thrown together and does not do this book any justice. Sure readers aren't going to always agree with an author's choice of an ending, but d*mn! I'm giving this book 3 stars on the strength of the beginning. And what did the title have to do with this book??? Who was the millionaire mistress? What millionaire?
Tiphani, a sister is not hating. Props to you for even putting your work out here for us to read, BUT with your future work, spend some more time creating a complete package from the cover (which was hot) to the title to the story itself; a story with a solid plot, developed characters, a good flow and consistency. That said, I wish you luck with your next novel.

“The Millionaire Mistress chronicles the lives of two cousins Oshyn and Chloe who due to a family tragedy were both reared by their maternal grandmother. The book opens with Oshyn relocating to Raleigh NC after escaping her mentally and physically abusive baby's father, Trent. Oshyn focuses on her career and son Micah while still healing the wounds caused by Trent's abuse. Oshyn has no room in her heart for love until gray-eyed Brooklyn Jones comes along.

But Brooklyn has to contend with more than just winning Oshyn over he has to avoid the conniving grasps of cousin Chloe, who has decided that Brooklyn is the perfect man for her. Chloe has been living high off of the hog suckering in men who've fallen for her sensuous charms. Chloe moves in with Oshyn after duping one of her marks for 1 million dollars in a blackmail scheme needing to lay low to avoid his wrath. Luring Brooklyn in with a money laundering deal to cleanse her ill gotten funds Chloe sparks a fuse that ignites a deadly chain of events.
Author Tiphani Montgomery debut novel contains all the necessary elements (sex, drama and unexpected twists and turns) to secure her position as a newcomer in the urban lit. field to be reckoned with. ”
