Good

Paige had been through a lot in her life. She was dealt a tragedy that left her all by herself & she just wasn't trying to do anything. She just did what she was supposed to do not worrying about love. She felt as if all the people she had loved had been taken away from her. Then she meets Jay who wants her. He does things she don't like by taking control but she feels he wants something from her. She eventually gives in & they make it what it is. Relationships don't always work like we want them to. With both people willing it can be wonderful. Paige also had to let go of all the hatred she had for him because of his involvement with the accident. She forgave him because he didn't know he was the cause of it. Forgiveness is a powerful things because you have to do it sometimes when you really don't want to. It's just sometime you have to in order to go on or it can turn you bitter.

A good fast read

The second book in this series was good. Everything was steady and flowed very good. Lov d the flash backs. At first, I thought Jay coming in her life was too good to be true. He just openly fell for her,which was rather quick. I lived how he immediately was there for her. He did things to her surprise and I found that so sexy of Jay. Paige, surprised me in some ways. She accepted all of the things Jay did for her,which again was rather fast for their very new relationship. I wondered a lot about that because she's very independent. BUT it was all revealed,which totally surprised me. I never saw that coming. The ending is the bomb!!! Not predictable at all. My only wish is that this book would have had some intimate sexy scenes. Overall,it was good read. 4 Stars!

This book and the end shocked me SPEECHLESS....OMG. Definitely didn't see or expect that from Paige. She was the BOSS. She had me fooled throughout the whole novella and I'm still stumped. She came off as a weak, naive, insecure person who was so heartbroken over losing her parents and her twin. Then all of sudden BAM she BOSSED UP and I was shocked. I'm so glad that she found love and happiness and was able to put all the hate and revenge behind her. I really like Jayson for her and vise versa. And she has twin blessings coming. Loved the storyline and plot. Patrice your created an awesome read in a short story and I loved it. Job well done Patrice Balark. Definitely recommend.

Loved It!

Patrice I really love your style of writing. I love the twists that I never seem to decipher until they're brought to fruition. Wow! This was something that made me really stop, think and analyze every conversation, but wow. Mind Boggling! This was truly an awesome novella from beginning to end. I love the way God enters my mind with words of encouraging if you will or encouragement of love. In reality LOVE really conquers all no matter how it shows itself, as long as it's received. Great Read! ReneeG 👍

Awesome but I would have liked to more development with them wow But that twist I didn't see coming at all

So she blamed him
Now in love with him
About to give birth to twins baby girls wow
Almost took him out for real
But couldn't do it because she feel in love too

I will say sometime revenge might not always be the answer..

Her friends were her ride or die had her back
His brother and friend was a trip but I wish it was longer would have liked to see them get married and her to give birth to her twins baby girls

Other than that I will recommend

The book was the bomb.com. I loved how Jay and Paige had there relationship. Never knowing that he was the cause of all her heart ache but in the end let me tell you love will make you do some crazy things. I’m so glad that Paige didn’t do what she set out to do and live the life that she deserved all along. It’s was a definite page turner great read I will definitely recommend this book to everyone to read. It will show you the power of love amazing at its best.

OMG

That was a goodread. I loved how Paige and Jay were all in from the beginning with each other. Patrice knows she can throw some twists at here readers. Just when I thought I had this story in the bag I was hit with a brick. I didn't see that coming. Talk about a twist. Fabulous job. Thanks for the sharing your talent.

Good read!!!

So this book was really good! I definitely did expect the twist at the end. It was well written. The only issue I had at all was that at the end is deemed rushed. I would have loved to have continued reading more!. Nevertheless i enjoyed the book and I'm glad all worked out. For Jay and Paige.

Chicago Boss

This short story seemed very fast paced. I loved the direction that the story was going in but then the ending totally threw me for a loop!. I was surely not expecting that! Love is very powerful but I dont see how Paige was soo quick to forgive Jay. It just seems like there were alot of things missing. Overall it was an interesting story though.

Wow!

Speechless! I was so happy Paige was giving Jay a chance for it to turn around with a twist like that. I can’t believe she stayed with him even though he wasn’t aiming for her family. He is the sole reason they are gone. It’s one of my favorites that I’ve read so far. I can’t wait to read more from this author. This book has sealed the deal for me. A new fan!

Novellas are hard to give enough so that the reader doesn't feel like there are holes missing in the story. In this case,there were holes that I felt needed to be filled. The twist at the end was the best part of the novella, although the final.scene took great creative license. 2.5

Jaw dropping

Lord Father God that ending was not what I was expecting. Talk about switching the game up. I actually really like Jay regardless. I’m glad things ended up on the right side of things

Patrice that was great

After 3 years of feeling lonely and like no one loved her, Paige finally found love, but can you forgive the person that caused so much hurt in your life. Great short read. Love wins

Now that ending though... I was not expecting that Twist. Paige pulled that off real good. I'm glad she didn't shoot Jay. He made her happy. However I'm glad he got rid of all the guns.

A very good read

This was a very good read with a twist at the end that I definitely didn't see coming. Who would have thought that things would happen the way they did? I sure didn't. As usual, the author left me wanting more.

👍👍👍👍👍

This was good.. Short and sweet. It didn't have a lot of messy mess in it and sometimes those be the best books. The ending was crazy and I didn't see that coming. I thought she was dreaming or something. But loved the ending!!

I never saw that coming!!!!

Paige played that role perfectly, she gave no inclination that she knew him. Life is weird and especially when the heart is involved. Jay I’m glad she her love fir you was strong enough to withstand such tragedy....
