This book had a little bit of everything...a lil drama, a lil deceit, a lil church name it. These couples are going thru somethings that lord know could either break you or make you. Standing strong is the name of this game. Truly enjoyed this story and loved the flow. Hope to find out more on each couple and see how it ends for all.
This book was obviously not previewed or edited prior to publishing. I am actually surprised by the poor layout of the book, typographical errors were rampant as were grammatical errors. The storyline itself wasn't so bad, the character development was also rather good, but to beat it all, yet another cliffhanger!! Though the book was a bit hard to read at times due to the above mentioned problems, I still think I would give the author another chance and choose another read by her. I hope her editors pay attention to her reviews and ratings and make the necessary changes before her future books reach the publicists.
In Part 2 I hope Tyrone and Lexi gets theirs. Karma is a b#tch! Will it be in Darius, Lou's, or Sandy's hands. Can't wait for the sequel. Good story Author Michele Mitchell
