No man has ever been able to resist Samiya Savage. The chocolate bombshell has A big wallet, big butt, and sex appeal. What she doesn’t have is a man to call her own. That’s until she met Rich, in her favorite restaurant. She knew that Cupid had finally caught her when she met him. No man had ever captured her heart, and held her attention in the way that he had. When you find a man like Richard “Richie Rich” Fleming, who’s young, black, and successful, you never let him go. Even if he belongs to someone else. Disregarding the warnings about Rich from her mother and best friend, she continues to pursue Rich, because when the heart wants what the heart wants, you shouldn’t deprive it. The funny thing about loving someone, is sometimes it doesn’t love you back.

Samiya was certifiable. Straight up looney tunes. Not sure what reaction the author expected, but I found it almost comical the lengths Samiya went though trying to ensnare her lover. And all that great advice her best friend gave her just went in one ear and out the other. Oh, but the twists...yeah, turns out she was certifiable. Loved how the story was told. Loved the title, too - ok, I must admit I was a little slow on that one. Anyway, great read that i would recommend except it's no longer on Amazon. This gem has been sitting in my library for a while. Took one star off for editing, but great story.
I can only say "damn". Phenomenal fantastic book!!!
Wow. I read this book in one sitting and am still sitting here shaking my head and saying "damn.". I did not anticipate any of the eventual happenings. This author is on point and I certainly look forward to reading more from this author.
Where do I begin? This book was well written and it really did take you on a mental ride. It took a minute to figure out Samiya was really crazy. This was a awesome book. Miss Savage was really a Savage in the end.
I gave this book 4 stars due to small grammar issues. The grammar issues didn't take away from the story.Overall this was an good read, it held my attention all the way til the end.
This book was off the chain. Whatever you think it is is not. I just love the way Octavia Grants mind works. I have yet to read a book by her that I didnt like.
This story was filled with crazy drama that kept me entertained. The story had real life drama that made you want to see what ms savage would do next. And a lesson got those who want to step out or when loves not given from birth.
However, this narrator who appears to be the go to for ebook authors did this book no favors. She needs to work on character range, and pronunciation of commonly used words. Before, I even looked to see who the author was I knew it was her as soon as I heard the male character and the voice of the mother. practice makes perfect and while she has several books in her portfolio. she's not improved yet. ...
I loved this book. I couldn't stop reading it. Loved the pun on the title and the twists and turns in the storyline. Will definitely be checking out more work from this author.
