Can't trust a soul!
I gave it a four due to errors throughout the book. It held lots of plots and twists. Nahima, just couldn't resist Isaziah once she saw him. After years of them being together his sister, Shereene still didn't like her. The hate was so bad she did the unthinkable. Isaziah, kept taking loss after loss until he realized the culprit inside his crew. After meeting with Tyshawn whom he thought could help. Another wrench was thrown in the mix. Receiving the new that his sister has been murdered and another kidnapped. Isaziah puts his all into finding out who's the cause of all his pain. Once the person is revealed his heart stops and everything goes dark. Besides the errors this was a really good read. Looking forward to reading part 2.

Betrayal of the worst kind!!
When I tell you this book had my attention from beginning to the end; it's nothing but nonstop action from chapter to chapter!! I knew something was not right with Shereene, but betraying her own brother and family is mindblowing. Can't wait to find out what will happen to Nahima, Isaziah, and Asia in part 2. Grab your copies of this page turner now, you won't be disappointed!!

Good Read
This was my first read by this author. Full of drama, action, lies, secrets, deceit and betrayal that held my attention. Money is definitely the root of all evil and Shereene is living proof. I knew something was right about her from jump, but your own brother and family. Can't wait to see what happens with Nahima, Asia and Isaziah in the next installment. I know it's more secrets and skeletons to come. Only drawback back had quite a few grammar errors.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🔥🔥🔥🔥
This story was fast paced and filled with drama. I didn’t want to put this book down. Family I ain’t nothing for Sherennie to go against her family for a man is sealing her fate which is death. There is no loyalty. Wanting to find out what happens in the next book. Amazing story

Kandie Marie knew her assignment!
Baby, my girl Kandie Marie knew her assignment!

aside from grammatical mistakes, there were plot holes that didn’t make sense and i felt like i was just reading scenes that were thrown together but that didn’t particularly make actual sense in the same story. The character motivations were confusing and the way they ran their organization didn’t make sense. But the story was interesting enough to make me want to finish the book.

Who can you trust. Family turned out to be your worst enemy. Money is indeed the root of all evil. Shereene was living foul and she seemed suspect from just going off over nothing. Nahima never backed down and Shereene felt intimidated. Ziah has to come thru and get back to living a normal life. It's so many skeletons coming out the closet. Will pt.2 be the FINALE

Wow
This book was entertaining from beginning to end with twists,turns,and bumps you don’t even see coming. You don’t know who to trust in this book but I would have to kill my sister if I made it out this mess. Good job Author Kandie Marie and I can’t wait to read book 2.
