**Previously Released October 29, 2018** (The Family Books 10-11) Gi’Dore ‘Gigi’ Reid is in love. The only issue with that is she may be loving the wrong person. When she finds out a truth that hurts her to the core, she allows her feelings to affect more than just her love life. So much so, it costs her the pampered lifestyle she’s accustomed to. With no money or assistance from her parents, she learns the truth about love and life the hard way. Twin brothers, Achilles and Adonis Heart, are heartthrobs who can’t seem to get their love life in order. Achilles is considered heartless and callous, but the truth is that he has no idea how to love. Even though he’s certain that he wants to work things out with Gi’Dore, their love is so toxic there may be no hope for repair. On the other hand, Adonis is a ladies man but still deeply in love with his longtime girlfriend, Teagan. Terrified of monogamy but knowing he wants to marry her someday, he attempts to stop his cheating... or at least slow it down. Unfortunately, it backfires in a way he never expected. Love is everything but predictable, and with these three... you never know what you’re going to get when their hearts are on the line.
I tried to get through all 9 of the books in the SAGA but I just couldn’t. Passed the 4th book I was over it. The women in these books are horrible and the men even worse. I didn’t even finish legacy and liberty story. I didn’t like liberty at all. So I skipped them and tried this story once I got to the point where teagan basically caught Adonis sexing the other chick and was okay with it. I was over it and decided all these females are weak and dumb and none of the men were any good. Well the side man Rico was but of course that’s not who GIGi wanted. I love this author and maybe if I didn’t read these back to back it would been different. The storylines for ALL the generations are exactly the same just their children. And where in the hell is Dortch? I mean did GIgi not have a relationship with him at all? It was all about Quan. But anyway I won’t be finishing this.
I like the way all these books just continue the journey with these family... Because even when one book ends I am still able to see what is going on with previous characters... This book was again a good read... I just hate that the author keeps mixing up characters... It happened again a few times... This is one of the downsides to this storyline because it has happened in almost every book in this series now... The storylines are good though... Some may feel a little repetitive on the storyline it just happens to be different characters at the time... Some things are a little different yet the same... But they have not caused me to want to put the book down yet... And it keeps my attention to want to continue reading... There was lots of action in here... There was stalking, lots of secrets and lies, set ups and pop ups... Gigi, Achilles, Teagan and Adonis went on a crazy journey in this book... These men just could not get it together... I was happy to see that these women finally had enough and was able to walk away and prove to these men that they were not going to accept just any type of treatment from them... Gigi just allowed it to going on way to long and didn't finally walk away until it got physical... Achilles may have felt bad... But he still was acting all crazy... Lucky for her Rico stepped in and started showing her what it is like to be treated the way she should by a real man... Teagan allowed Adonis to just do him for so long while she was in school... That little did she know that she opened up that door for another woman to come in and take her place... Then for him to knowingly disrespect her to her face... Oh I was heated with him... But we see that he could not handle what he was dishing out... Well like most men... It is funny when they are out here just giving it up to a whole bunch of other women... But the moment they hear their woman was with even 1 man and not even to the extent of what he has done and all hell breaks loose... Well Gigi and Teagan have moved on and proved a point to these men... They are independent women and there are other men out here ready to step in and treat them the way they deserve... With Teagan I was happy for her but with her being with Keagan I just didnt feel like he was it... I think she may have rushed into that... I mean yes she was trying to give him a chance but nope still wasn't feeling it... Then the thing with his mom... I was definitely not feeling that at all... With Gigi... I was glad that she opened the door for Rico... I feel like she really liked him and loved how he treated her... But now look at what she has allowed to happen... Why... I guess we will see how it will all play out... I just want her to be genuinely happy... Will these women really find what they have always wanted with these men... Or will they have to close the door all the way with them to really be happy... I guess I will have to continue into the next part of this Saga to find out...
Achilles and Adonis were serial cheaters. The women were weak and still chose them. Gi’Dore to me was a dummy. She wasn’t trying to get over Achilles, he dogged her so bad, he changed when he felt like it and you guessed it! When he saw her happy and moving on. The worst thing is when a man knows you are weak for him and Achilles knew that and played on that. He knew she wasn’t leaving him. He was arrogant about it. When he told her “I didn’t say we were done, I said I was” meaning, I can do it and you can’t. That should’ve told her the type of man Achilles was. The men of the family not wanting what’s best for their daughters was a real shocker. They want their daughters to go with what’s familiar, not what’s best. Achilles didn’t show signs of change to me. Adonis has a chance, but he still cheated on Teagan the whole book and had the nerve to blow a gasket when she was doing her own thing as well because he was off cheating so much, he left her neglected. I disliked this one only because I dislike when women are portrayed as being so weak, the only good man in the whole series so far, Rico, did not get picked. She chose the ex cheater who broke her heart over and over…whaaatt…they were all 4/5’s. Except this one, hated it
I’m a series girly through and through so I love everything about this family! 💕 I would’ve loved to see Gi and Achilles outside of their toxicity tho lol. Rico was cool for her but ima always love the underdog more. I hated that he had a baby on my girl Gi but I loved how years later she had a relationship with Kela Bee outside of him, that was so cute to me. I was glad Harmony weird ass got it together and it was funny af when she helped Achilles make Gi jealous, she became okay in my book lmao. That man was gonna get his girl by any means!
Adonis was trifling as f***. Idc what anybody says he did not deserve my girl Teagan but in the same breath, I am glad that he grew up and they got it together. Teagan should’ve took his ass through it tho 😂😂😂
I can’t wait to read Quame’s book because he’s hilarious so I can’t wait to see more of hm!
See in the beginning I was like yayy for Gi’Dore and Achilles but once I saw him do her dirty I wasn’t beat for them being together. I wanted her with Rico. But that damn Achilles grew on me. Then I thought her and Adonis was gonna get together. But they was for real besties. I’m happy Teagen gave Adonis another chance. That damn criss boy she a whole flaw ass broad man.
These damn twins were a mess! Adonis seemed to be the good twin but that was far from the truth. He was just as messed up as Achilles. I’m happy he got rid of criss abs worked it out with teagan. Now Achilles, Lord Jesus! I thought he’d messed up forever and was never getting Gi back. She knew she was settling for Rico
I'm still reading this series and I'm still loving this series 😍. The story is still amazing. To see the twins Adonis and Achilles then Quame and his sister Gi'Dore. Watching this next generation get there footing and find love.
Achilles & Gi’Dore was my favorite couple in this book. You really seen Achilles character grow up and mature into the man that Gi deserved. I’m glad Adonis & Teagan worked things out. I’m looking forward to reading Qua & Mo’nae’s story next
Mannn these books are life and I haven't been Etting no type of sleep smdh, I loved me some Achilles and Adonis, but qua is his father's child with a mix of Ginger so on to the next one
This generation is just as delirious as their parents. Good Lord, to be young dumb and in lobe.🤦 Them twins got on my damn nerves. They had me feeling mental at times😄 The women just had to learn the way that what you allow a man to he will do.
I'm happy for Achilles... I can sympathize with him as far as his feelings went.. I can remember being hurt like that... I'm glad he found out like I did that it doesn't hurt forever
How in the entire hell did Gi not know getting it in with 2 men can come with consequences?!?!?! I'm happy she got her boo thang though. This book had my pressure up!!
Great read. Gi deserve happiness .The family tree shows the generational curse. Gi situation was similar to her mom Gin situation. Loving this series......
These kid's are worst than their parent's were when they were they age. Adonis and Achilles act just like Doe and Zeus but worse. I actually thought Adonis was the level headed and cool twin but he was just sneaky with his bs. Torn between Teagan and Criss. Adonis dirty deeds caught up with him and Teagan left him but she had her little dirty she did too. I don't know why she thought Keegan was going to be any better. Especially with his loud mouth momma in their business. Criss turned out to be a damn stalker. She definitely hit Adonis where it hurt but I was disgusted at what Criss did. Gi'Dore is definitely her mother's child. She act just like Ginger when it came to relationships and men. However Gi'Dore should've never tried to be in a relationship with Rico knowing that wasn't where her hurt was. She wanted Achilles disrespectful ass. Even after all that Achilles had done to Gi'Dore. She couldn't shake him. The good guys always finish last. I felt sorry for Rico because I knew him and Gi'Dore wasn't going to work out. He should've saw it too.
