I really liked this book! I love BriAnn and I was excited to read a suspense novel written by her. I liked the story. I liked the writing and how it felt peeling a layer off the more I kept reading. The sisters were good characters. I loved the sisterhood between Mia, Hazel and Teyona. While I know Matthew was the real villain , I didn’t felt bad for Kimberly though. I didn’t like that Hazel didn’t feel bad about the whole Evelyn thing and also I disliked that Jared was pictured as a villain when his motive was absolutely noble at the end of the day.
While I liked the pace of the story, I still felt like the beginning was really slow. There was still some loopholes in the story. The things didn’t get an explanation. We never really knew how Jared and the Mistress got to know each other. The way Ricky and Sharon just moved on from their revenge after Jarel’s death was too easy. Jared wanted to get at Matthew when Hazel was the one selling drugs didn’t really make sense to me.
On an other note, I loved Deshaun and Teyona, they were so cute.
Overall it was a good real but I needed a bit more suspense and angst.

As a fan of psychological suspense and dark, twisted tales, you'll be drawn into the world of Jack Girlz Atlanta, where three sisters navigate a web of deceit and loyalty, their priorities and morals tested by the allure of a lavish lifestyle and the consequences of their actions. Like the electrifying thrillers of You Are Not Alone and Dark Places, Jack Girlz Atlanta will keep you on the edge of your seat, wondering who will take the fall for a crime that threatens to destroy their bond. With its pulse-pounding pace and themes of family, loyalty, and the blurred lines between right and wrong, Jack Girlz Atlanta is the perfect next read for fans of these dark and twisted tales.

I enjoyed the roller coaster that this was. it felt like I was solving the case through out the whole book, come to find out it's 2 unrelated cases. Could it have hit just as hard just with the fathers thing, yes. I do feel like Jarel's issue wasn't truly needed. I also feel like the mom had a secret but the book made it seem like there was so much more. I would like a book that focuses on Teyona and Deshaun now.

Overall, I did enjoy the book. I'm so used to BriAnn's love stories where the perfect man exists but this was a nice change.

Jack Girlz is a gripping women’s crime thriller that dives headfirst into the complexities of loyalty, revenge, and the dangerous pursuit of justice on your own terms. The story of Mia, Hazel, and Teyona takes readers on a wild ride through the world of corporate scamming, where the stakes are high, the consequences are deadly, and sisterhood is both a bond and a battleground.

The three sisters are compelling, layered characters. Their shared trauma fuels their vengeance, but as the money rolls in and plans start to unravel, cracks form in their relationship. Danae masterfully builds tension, capturing how ambition and greed can pull even the closest bonds apart.

The pacing is relentless, keeping you on edge as the sisters’ meticulously crafted world begins to crumble after a single, fateful mistake—a dead body with no clear scapegoat. The moral dilemmas hit hard: Who will take the fall? How far would you go to protect family?

This book thrives on its mix of fast-paced action, emotional depth, and nail-biting suspense. The lavish lifestyles and high-stakes schemes are enticing, but the darker themes—betrayal, guilt, and sacrifice—add a richness that lingers after the final page.

Mia, Hazel and Teyona showed a true definition of sisterly love. Right, wrong or indifferent the sisters were all in. Their parents Matthew and Kimberly had decades of hidden secrets that neither of them saw resurfacing. No one could have prepared them for the twist and turns life was about to take for the entire family. I don’t care how fast you run you can never out run KARMA!!!! I’ve read several books from BriAnn Danae and I’m really loving this thriller/mystery genre. From the beginning to the very last page secrets, drama and disloyalty will be revealed .

Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC!!

I don’t even know where to start with this review. Whew, with a father like Matthew who needs enemies?? Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC!!

Let me start by saying the build up for this was intense and the author did a great job at hooking me in. As the reader, i do think i would have benefited from more of the parents story line and the things they went through before the kids. BriAnn could have given us 100 more pages on them alone.

Talk about a scheme set up by Todd…this book gives sisterhood a new meaning and i felt like i was on the wild ride right along with the Grants.

There is nothing like a good book with lies, drama, deceit, and non-stop action. Books like this grab me from the beginning and I'm usually looking forward to the ride. BriAnn Danae has done it again!!

This was my first read by BriAnn Banae and this was an easy 5/5 l enjoyed the story line all the way through. Jack Girlz Atlanta was a book full of family lies and secrets. Despite the family drama I was glad to see the sister Mia, Hazel and Teyona stuck together through it all. I had a feeling something was up with the way Matthew was treating his daughter. I did not care for Matthew at all and let's just say I'm happy.
Overall this was a great read and now I'm about to binge BriAnn catalog.

Thank you NetGalley & Black Odessa for this ARC.I am a huge Briann Danae fan and one thing I love about this author is her ability to write different genres and make them all enjoyable. Jack Girlz Atlanta was not at all what I expected giving the title. This story line had so many twist and turns and different players I couldn’t put it down. Matthew and Kimberley are Mia, Hazel and Teyona. When the parents past come back to haunt them but through their daughters their whole world is turned upside down. All the danger that they are in is surrounding them and everyone wants revenge for one thing or another, mainly from the sins of Matthew Grant. All Matthew cares about is his company and doesn’t bother to put his family first. Treating his wife and children badly leads him to indeed get jacked. I enjoyed this book and would definitely recommend to anyone who likes thrillers or mystery.

This book was amazing! As a BriAnn Danae fan, this is some of her best work in my opinion. It just shows how versatile her pen is. I felt like I was in an episode of Reasonable Doubt, How to Get Away with Murder, and murder she wrote all while being Jessica looking for clues. Then add a little spice, creeping, and sneaking BOOM! It was so bomb! This book deserves all the praise.

I received this advanced reader's copy from NetGalley. So this book was good. Dare I say a light thriller. Idk what I was expecting but I knew I wouldn't be disappointed because I like the author. But this book had more twist and turns than a roller coaster. Every time I thought I had it figured out BOOM 💥 another twist and your mind is blown. I will say I did like the growth of the characters. I wasn't too sure if I'd like them bc they seemed a little unlikable at the beginning TO MEEEEE...but they were very well developed and I think I just didn't fully understand them and their story at the moment. Now Hazel I did like. A lot. Also liked Teyona too. But Matthew, Kimberly and Mia didn't like them in the beginning and majority of the book. Then I grew to like Mia a lil bit 🤏🏼 and once learning Kimberly's story I can't say I liked her but I definitely understand her and her reasoning behind a lot of what she did and how she acted/reacted in certain situations. But Matthew, 🙄 he was a different breed. How I felt about him in the beginning was how I felt about him at the end. The story was good and it seems different than her typical work. But I do have 3 questions that I need to ask the author bc I just gotta know these things bc I'm nosy 😆

Family lies, deceit, greed, and some times just plain evilness comes out in Jack Girlz Atlanta by BriAnn Danae.

Mia, Hazel, and Teyona are on a quest to get people they don’t even know before they get got. This of course unveils a lot of family secrets that were never supposed to see the light of day, but remember everything done in the dark comes to light.

The book had a lot of suspense and I was on the edge of my seat trying to figure out things. I loved how it all pulled together and no questions were left unanswered about anyone. Some people I was skeptical of… some I shouldn’t have been. lol We see love interest, love lies, and the power of family sticking together and what happens when you don’t

So glad I was able to receive this ARC. It’s so refreshing to see the 3 sisters Mia, Hazel, & Teyonna stick together & want to protect each other. It was so many secrets that came to light to help with the development of the story. Matthew needs to rot honestly, truly. Kimberly did what she had to do & I love that for her. I did want for the twists to happen a little bit more earlier in the storyline but besides that, I enjoyed this book.

I felt like the bones of the plot had potential but i felt like i wanted more from the individual storylines. The story started slow but all the action happened in the last 10% of the book.

We didn’t get a finished story line from Teyona and Deshaun or Hazel and Karter.

Overall i was able to get through the book but i just wanted more.

I’m a big fan of BriAnn Danae!!!

This book started off slow, it took a few chapters for things to pick up a little. When things did pick up, the story flowed but something was just not connecting me to the characters or the story.

Main characters
Mia Grant (Eldest daughter)
Hazel Grant (Middle daughter)
Teyona Grant (Last daughter)
Mathew Grant (Father)
Kimberly Grant (Mother)

Storyline
The Grant's are a well-known family based in Atlanta due to their success in the pharmaceutical industry.  However, their family dynamics isn't what it is believed to be. Secrets that are prayed to be left in the dark finally come to the light. The question is ... Is the family strong enough to uphold their legacy, and what would you do to uphold it?

Thoughts
Miss Briann Danae has done it again with another banger. I enjoyed this book and would definitely recommend it. In my eyes Briann Danae can do no wrong.

This book right here had me stuck. From the very first page, I was pulled in. This family was hiding so many secrets, and several people were determined to expose them. Mia, Hazel, and Teyona were going through it mostly because of their parents. My favorite character was Hazel. Sis walked in the path of her choosing, not caring what her Dad thought. I felt bad for both Mia and Teyona, neither deserved the mess that kept getting thrown their way. The plot twists that kept hitting in this book had me shook. The author was exposing secrets to the end of the book. Briann Denae wrote the heck out of this book. 10/10 will be recommending this book to everyone.

10/10. First book I’ve read by Briann Denae and she did not disappoint! I will definitely be getting her whole catalog after reading this one! The drama, the deceit, the lies, the everything!!

Hazel, Teyona and Mia all had their flaws but they were so loyal to one another. I absolutely loved their relationship. Sisters have to stick together NO MATTER WHAT! The sibling I felt like I related to the most was Teyona. She was an outcast compared to her sisters. And the way her father treated her, I felt that on so many different levels. I wanted to hug her so many times throughout the book. Matthew Grant can go straight to hell!!!

This is exactly what I needed after being in a reading slump and I don’t know if I can read anything else just yet. I have to sit with this one for awhile. This will be placed on my list of rereads. I devoured this book! Mrs Briann Denae, your pen game is top tier!!!!

Just one moment was all it took to reveal decades of secrets and lies. As the truth begins to unfold, there are two important questions to consider: Who can you trust? And how far would you go to protect your family legacy?

Was this review helpful?

Mia, Hazel and Teyona stuck together even through family mishaps and unfortunate circumstances. There’s secrets uncovered that leads to a lot of things changing even when push comes to shove. They’re enjoying getting money but didn’t care much about what would happen if they were caught or ran down on. But things soon come full circle with a wrong decision. Good story!!! 4.5⭐️
