Author J. Tremble tells the story of Angel, a promiscuous teenager looking for love in all the wrong places, in his third release, Naughty Little Angel. After being alienated by her estranged mother, Mariah, Angel is reared by a single, womanizing Antoine, her father-figure, for seventeen years. Believing she never received the attention she deserves, Angel begins her quest for what she believes is true love. Angel uses her body to pay for clothing, food and shelter.
After running away from home, Angel finds herself trapped in a sex ring, discovering that life on the streets is not so easy. She also discovers that the type of love she once thought she longed for comes at a very high price, one that may even cost her life. Will Angel¡¯s parents be able to save her in time? Or will a web of deception amongst friends leave everyone dead and gone?
This plot is filled with twists and turns that are sure to leave the reader wanting to know what is about to happen next. Naughty Little Angel was definitely a page-turner and I recommend this book to all the girls who are discovering their sexuality. The way the novel ends will prompt readers to think about issues such as leading by example and they are sure to evaluate possible causes and effects of living a life of promiscuity. I did note several misspellings or typos throughout and am hoping that all will be corrected in the final copy.

I am leaving a comment in regards to the works of J. Tremble. Secrets of A Housewife and More Secrets More Lies, were stories that kept you on edge, we all know that saying “What’s done in the Dark…………..”. Boy when the lights came on, Skeletons on top of Skeletons. I would love the opportunity to win a copy of his latest book; Naughty Little Angel.
In the last post I wasn’t too sure if we were supposed to answer the questions or just leave a post. So I am going to answer the questions that were posted just to be safe.
How many of you had heard of J. Tremble before today? I have heard great things of Mr. Tremble on various websites and until early this year I hadn’t read any of his works. But I had the pleasure of personally meeting Mr. J. Tremble at the HBF. He is not only a great writer but a very warm spirited (and very funny) Guy.
Have you read any books by J. Tremble? Yes, Secrets of a Housewife & More Secrets More Lies
If so, how would you describe this author’s writing style? A little (wink) on the eroctic side and a little on the drama/suspense side
If you could have dinner with Tremble, what questions would you ask him? I would be more inquisitive about the business. I am one who really wants to write but doesn’t have a clue where to begin. So I mainly would ask about getting started in the writing world.
I just read Secrets of a Housewife, very good. I would like to know if More Secrets and More Lies is the sequel to Secrets of a Housewife.
Naughty Little Angel is a great book. Its everything it says in the summary. It’s so good I think it would make a REALLY good movie!
