Book Excerpt:
"Raymond "Mr. Big Stuff" McCullough didn't just get his name from being one of Pittsburgh's biggest most powerful names. He also had a certain quality about him that either scared a woman away or dared her to try him at least one time. That's usually all they could handle—leaving Raymond lonely most of the time.
Tracey Copeland had been looking for something or someone to break up the monotony of her life and when that didn’t happen, she begins to feel like she was losing at the game of life. In one of her most impulsive moves to date, she changes her life for what seems like the worse. But fate intervenes and brings her into the path of a man so big, he shakes her life up, and all she can do is hope to land on her feet. Fearful of the consequences, she has to decide what to do next: run once again or stick to her guns and see what hand life deals her. Tracey did say she was looking for a challenge, and Mr. Big Stuff was exactly that.
In the Baes of Juneteenth multi-author series, we invite you to journey to different cities to celebrate Juneteenth with the men of Mr. Black, an organization honoring Black love, Black culture, and Black history."

My Sentiments:
My, my, my...what a good read 'Mr. Big Stuff: Baes of Juneteenth' was featuring Tracey and Raymond. The title alone will have one wondering what that [Mr. Big Stuff] applied to. We find Tracey being hired by Raymond as his assistant. It was pretty interesting reading how these two came together, each having their own personal issues while learning valuable lessons. But most of all, Tracey was able to assist Raymond, who needed help pulling together a wonderful Juneteeth celebration hosted by the Black organization.
I loved how this author gave this read an excellent job explaining Juneteenth information, New Year's history, and Mr. Black's organization. All in all, the reader is given not only a good romance story but also an important history lesson about Juneteenth.
The characters that came into play in the story from previous stories by this author were...Khalil, Zola, Rashaad, Zoe, and even friends from Sizzle were included in this story, which helped bring the story together very well.
To get all of the story, pick up 'Mr. Big Stuff: Baes of Juneteenth' to see if Tracey and Raymond 'find the true value of life and happiness' they desperately needed.
Be ready for a beautiful story of black love and knowledge...and the playlist was awesome!
