A Must Read
Some women shouldn't have children. Za'adore mother had a addiction and didn't give a damn about putting her in harms way with Kane sick ass. Avian became so smitten with Za'adore and tried to keep her protected from his father that he slipped. He should have been paying better attention to his surroundings because Charmayne was plotting. Nadege mother was a evil ole witch. I hope somebody beat her ass for what she was doing to her daughter and grandson. I understand that was hurt when she found out who Kemori really was but she shouldn't have allowed her pride to get in the way. Kemori can not help who he kin to. He really have some love for Nadege and her son. Nadege have a delusional, trifling, and trash ass ex. I was pissed the way this ended and I hope Kemori make it in time.

I Only Have One Regret!
And it’s that I waited almost two years to read this book! Now I cannot rest until I finish the series!
I can’t say that I have ever been a fan of the kidnapping trope, but this book had me hooked the moment Kane and Avi bust down Za’Adores front door! From their first meeting I was kind of hoping that Janey and Bennie couldn’t come up with the money because I wanted to see a better life for Za’Adore and I had a feeling it would come with Avi.
I loved almost everything about Kem, minus the way he treated Stacy Ann. I really wanted to love Nadege and for the most part I did but her insecurities really bugged me when it came to Kem.
With everything so up in the air with every relationship in this book, not just romantic ones either, I am diving straight into part two because I know I won’t rest until I see this series through to the end.
My name is K Sherrie,
And I recommend this read!

BANGER
I was locked in from the beginning! This book so Good , I finished it in one day . I love Kem and the fact that he was a no nonsense type of man , and he did not play about Nadège. Nadège was working my nerves, being naive but then I had to remember she was. I felt so bad for Za’adore because her mom left her for dead. I’m on the fence about Avian , and I can’t believe how this book ended ! I forgot all about Sam, but I hope Kem get to Nadége. Very good read I highly recommend.

I didn't like Nadège and Za'adore's mothers. They put them in the worst predicaments. Avian is crazy and I hope Nadège gets away. Sam was definitely wrong how he did Za'adore, but he will get what's coming to him. I like Za'adore and Kemori together. I can't wait to see what happens in part 2.

This one had me reading but it needed a bunch of work because the story didn’t flow and it was hard to connect with the characters. The ending was enough to pull you into the next one but I doubt I’d read it if it takes a minute for it to come out.

Love this story
It explains a lot of what happens to a lot of young girls that grow up in broken homes. I love the characters I’ll admit I’ve been sleeping on some authors but I’m glad I read this book!

Oh Wow!
I absolutely loved this story. So many twist and turns. This author kept me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. I absolutely love me some Kemori, he just screams in charge! But judging by the ending everyone has to pay …headed to part two!

Ok
There was plenty of drama in this book, but I found myself skipping a few pages to get to the point. All that stuff happened and they still haven't graduated

Loving this series
I really like Kem. He's a good dude deep down. Avi on the other hand is weak. He should have stood up to his daddy a long time ago.

Good read
This story line is crazy. So much going on all the lies and deceit. Who to trust and who is real.

OMG!!!!
This is my first read by this author and I can’t wait to read more! I’m not really big on drama filled books, but baby the drama in this book is like a domino effect that’s never ending! Ready to start part 2 asap because I’m anxiously waiting to see what happens next.

Great read
That cliffhanger brought tears to my eyes!! This was a great read and different from regular urban books. Sam and Kane are evil and their karma needs to get them and get them good! Man the main characters all carried hardships but from different walks of life. You had the poverty and drugs hardships down to issues of power and control. I enjoyed this read!
