Dough Dreams by Shay Davis
A Review By: NJH
Chasing your dreams is never easy.
Jade put her dreams on hold for love once and it was a mistake she vows to never repeat. It's time for her to enter her boss era. The only thing that remains on Jade's mind is building her net worth and looking good while doing it. If it's not about the next big business deal, then it doesn't belong in Jade's world.
Growing up in Philly, Tate knew there were few paths for him to take. He could follow after his brother and friends, getting sucked into the streets, or he could work hard and find another escape route. Tate eventually finds his way, choosing to work tirelessly at chasing and achieving his dreams. Yet, even with a humble mindset and a go-hard grind ethic, he finds himself in a situation where things begin to disintegrate before his eyes. He's not built to be a quitter, so Tate is prepared to do any and everything before he gives up the one thing he loves.
Jade and Tate both choose business over pleasure, but when the waters get murky, seemingly easy decisions suddenly become difficult. Dreams can come true, and dreams can change. But what happens when the mind and the heart aren't on the same page?

An installment in a Series? No

Dough Dreams gripped me from the first page. The opening scene is an “I know you f'ing lying moment.” I enjoyed the different dynamics of "who's saving who". The play on the title is also dope. Just enough drama but not over the top. Tate is definitely book bae. So you will get some spice. A great easy listen. Narration was also good.
