Dangerously In Love: Blame it On the Streets by Aletta H. Reminisce
would blame the streets for the way her life turned out. She grew up
poor, insecure and wanting the finer things in life. That’s where Jimmy
came in at. He was a hustler and soon able to give Reminisce all the
things in life she dreamed of. The problem was, Jimmy not only took care
of her, and he also indulged in the finer things of life too. He was an
obsessive cheater and a womanizer.
Their
relationship was entering the fifth year and things had gotten worse.
But Reminisce loved Jimmy and was willing to put up with his bullshit as
long as the money kept coming. But things changed when some men broke
in the house to rob Jimmy and nearly killed them both during the
robbery. Reminisce wanted out. She retreated to writing poetry,
something she used to do as a little girl. She soon found strength in
her heart to want out.
Jimmy
got arrested and she found her first real chance of leaving Jimmy. But
would she make it on her own without the drug money Jimmy provided?
Reminisce blames the streets but the streets doesn’t owe anyone any
loyalty. Dangerously In Love is a modern love tale filled with danger,
passion, and one woman’s dream of escape.

Dangerously in Love: Modern Urban Love Story Provides Uplifting Solace to Abused Women Making Transition from Victim to Victor.
Masterfully crafted by Aletta H, ‘Dangerously in Love’ fuses prose and poetry to tell the story of Reminisce, a bold and brave young woman who is taunted by failed love and lost direction at a time when she needs it the most. The world around Reminisce and the people within it are dragging her own existence into the ground – but will hope prevail? Find out in this gripping new novel that proves walking out of abusive relationships is far easier said than done.
Urban Fiction is quickly picking up pace to become one of the most in-demand genres among the female readership. However, critics are currently crying out for wholly-unique new narratives that don’t succumb to the recycling of the ‘same-old’ literary concepts. Thankfully, author Aletta H has answered the call with gusto, to twist fact with fiction in a debut novel that can easily rival any bestseller.
Aletta won’t say how much of ‘Dangerously in Love’ was inspired by her own life experiences – but maintains that the adversity faced by heroine Reminisce is a microcosm of the daily lives of thousands of young African Americans in urban settings across the nation.
Dangerously In Love is a modern love tale filled with danger, passion, and one woman’s dream of escape. “The book brings both prose and poetry together, words that will remind every woman either of herself or someone she knows,” explains Aletta. “I want to make it clear that leaving an abusive relationship is not as simple as walking out of the door; there’s a huge mental battle that ensues and it holds many back from changing their lives.”
Continuing, “You have to build yourself back up in something of a physical and mental rebirth. This book explains that entire process and will touch the heart of anyone that has stared abuse in the eyes.”
Since its release, the book has garnered a string of rave reviews. Spring Olsen comments, “I just finished reading Dangerously in Love by Aletta H.! I couldn't put it down once I started!
