My teaser from7 % in the eBook.
“I’m going crazy,” she thought. This time she did laugh, and the snakes, which were the same rusty brown color as her dreads, returned her smile.
I had no idea what this book was about. I just couldn’t resist that title and cover. It takes right off and gets dark fast. Having fun!

Read on if you want to know more.
Synopsis
At Vista Apartment Complex, life drastically changes for a few of its residents when they decide to do business with Crazy Jade—the supposed voodoo witch that can grant your wish, for a price.
Shemeya wants the confidence to stand up against the girls bullying her at school, but she soon has to choose between keeping her dreadlocs or living a normal life. After catching her boyfriend cheating, Latreece just wants to have the same curves as all the other girls. Ashley will do whatever she can to have “White Girl Flow”, but takes her pursuit too far when she steals from Crazy Jade.
Everyone who comes into contact with Crazy Jade soon learns the true price of her magic—and how horribly wrong it can go.
BLACK BEAUTY takes the reader on a journey through the point of view of five residents of Vista Apartment Complex, and how each of their horrors crash together in ways they could never have expected.

Title makes me think of the horse book…lol. 🙂
That’s what I was thinking. LOL
Yeah, I thought of the horse too. lol
sherry @ fundinmental My TT
No horses. Not even Pegasus. LOL
Yes… I was wondering if you were reading the Anna Sewell version:). This one sounds intriguing though, Laura. My TT this week is a food-based cosy mystery set in space…

Nope. This one is out there. And you know how I enjoy that.
I also thought of the horse book when I first saw the title…LOL. But definitely not that kind of black beauty. Sounds fascinating and a little scary. Here’s mine: “THE SECRETS SHE KEEPS”
Myths and voodoo intertwine in this one.
You do seem to enjoy the dark books. Sounds really intriguing and spooky. Thanks for stopping by at my link: http://wp.me/p4DMf0-1yE earlier today. Enjoy!
That’s me. Funny that I also love so many other genres, including children’s books and cozies.
Based on the title I thought this was going to be the classic children’s book so that in itself teased me. The teaser for this title really has me curious, why is she going crazy?
I wish I could tell you. It has to do with a myth.
When I saw your teaser was from BLACK BEAUTY, I thought it was the horse story!
Don’t feel alone. LOL
When I first saw the title I thought it was the one with the story about the horse haha. Definitely would have been in for a surprise… 😉 I like the sound of the teaser though; I hope you will enjoy it!
Looks like I caught many of you by surprise:)
A POC author and a POC main character is fabulous. 🙂
You can say that again!
Thought it was going to be the horse book. Sounds really interesting. Thanks for sharing it.
I loved the horse story Black Beauty. Sad though.
Don’t think this one would be for me, but it does sound interesting – great teaser!
It’s pretty dark. Good for me as I like that:)
I thought the horse book too lol when I saw this on Bloglovin. Sounds dark and fun though- love the teaser. Smiling snakes?? Yikes. 🙂
I kind of figured most of you would. LOL This one is twisted fun.
I thought of horses too when I saw the title.. nope! Definitely not horses, but sounds pretty good anyway. 🙂 Thank you for sharing & thank you for visiting my blog! 🙂
I guess this title is a great teaser all by itself. LOL
A wish at a price – reminds me of Ursula’s (shoddy) dealings in The Little Mermaid.
Not the book I thought it was going to be.
Yup I agree that cover and that title are something. and.. snakes! when people are compared to snakes there must be good things coming 😀
