I will not lie, I was losing interest fast in the series, but my interest has been regained. Whoo chile! We have witnessed a War amongst the Wales and the Lous, and we have witnessed war amongst the Lous, but I didn’t ever think it would come a point where the Wales are at war with one another. The breakout stars: Ace and Walid! This series gonna be 3 generations long at least! I know we gonna see them grow to be adults and I’m excited for it.

These 2 families continue to create drama, chaos, and confusion not only their lives but in others as well. Fast paced action had me finishing this installment quickly.

This book had the build up of this secret being exposed... Wasn't as explosive as I thought it would be... But it was pretty good... Mason was losing his mind with not knowing what to do because the thought of losing the love of his life was to much to handle... I understand that he didn't want to lose her but I think he should have slowly been letting her know about her past because this may have helped him in the end... Especially once he seen that Banks was starting to get some of his memory back...
What is going on with Tinsley... Did his ex really do the things that he said or was he lying so he could stay with River... Was he using River... Because something with him was definitely off to me... Not only that... I am totally confused how all of a sudden he just ended up with Banks...
Now as for these twins... I felt so bad for Walid... His brother Ace is just too much... And poor Walid has been looking like he is a bad kid all these years... All because he was protecting his brother Ace... Even I didn't want anything to do with Ace... I hate the way he is doing Walid... And because he knows that his brother always protects him and always takes the blame for EVERYTHING Ace does , he has been getting worse and worse... Now it may cost people their lives... Then Ace keeps trying to manipulate Walid because Walid wont talk to him... Lucky for Walid that his brother Spacey stepped in and helped... But how long can this last... Especially with the way things are playing out with this family...
I was glad to see Minnesota finally find someone that is finally making her happy... I mean things with her and Spacey was just to much... They keep saying that they are not related... Correct me if I am wrong... Don't they have the same daddy... So yes they are related... Spacey on the other hand did the right thing in the beginning... But now because he is not happy with his wife he wants things back with Minnesota... He is the one that wanted his wife to gain weight... She was trying to lose the weight and he ended things with her... But looks like she may have went a little to far... But that is not what he wants anymore... See his controlling ways went to far... And now he us not happy and he hates seeing Minnesota be happy... So he is going what he can to shake things up That is so not fair... To either his wife that he demanded she gain this weight or to Minnesota...
Jersey was doing to much in here for me... And in the end I hope Banks does not take her back either... I really am still hoping that Mason and Blaire can be together... Although I know that is wishful thinking...
Well you never know... I guess I will have to check out part 10 to find out...

What a Rush!
This series has been one rollercoaster loop after another but this book right here??? Sheesh. This one had more turn of events than I was ever ready for.
My baby Mason... you were the biggest shock for me. While I still love you, like Jersey loves Banks, I see you differently. Not judging just different. That Ace... he is now the bootleg baby politician. He a little booger and I want more of him. The deception from all these characters makes me realize that 9 books later, I don't know who anybody truly is! AMD that's why I love me a T Styles twisted story😍😍

Mason Bat Shit Crazy For Trying To Keep Banks As “Blaire”. I Know He Trying To Hold On To What He Always Wanted Which Was A Relationship With His First Love. But You Have To Be Crazy As Hell To Try To Keep A Person Who Feels They Are A Man A Woman. Then On Top Of That Having Sex With Blaire Has To Be The Most Degrading Thing In The World. I Know Banks Didn’t Know At That Point But WTF Is Wrong With Mason. He Using The Memory Loss For His Own Personal Agenda And He Don’t Give Not One Fuck What Anybody Has To Say About It. I’m So Happy Banks Finally Found Out The Truth Because If We Had To Wait Any Longer I Woulda Had A Heart Attack. Next Up Ace And Walid Christmas Book

Omg this series is still pure fire. Mason was still on his bs about Banks. All those twist abs turns in this book was crazy. The part about Spacey and Minnie was crazy ass hell but I can definitely understand under the circumstances. Jersey was so misunderstood about everything I believe if they would have let her tell Banks it would have helped a little bit.
Now River was a pit bull in this book god bless her she was loyal to the wrong person. Tinsley was so nice but fell in love with the wrong dude.
All I’m going to say is that it was a shock to read about Preach and Joey at the end.
Great story as always definitely worth more than 5 stars

Bruhhhhhh!!!!! Like I've said about this entire series...you never know what to expect. You think it's going to go 1 way and then BOOM something happens that you never even thought of. This is a good, hood, gangsta, gritty, psycho thriller! All these characters are something else. And my sweet little babies Ace and Walid....Jesus christ on a bike. Ace really is showing tf out! I just don't even know what to say about him. Just that I'm ready and waiting impatiently for Ace and Walid's Christmas book.

Reading this week has been tough.. this book deserved more of my attention, but i just 🤷🏾♀️ — Mason is a low down dirty shame and i just know he gon be in hell in this next book. all the kids really pissed me the fuck off,, cause huhh how yall scream loyalty and then when it’s really needed yall act like little pussy’s? explain.. Ace is a fucking menace just like Mason.. and Walid is a carbon copy of banks with the way his thought processing works and the actions he takes to protect ace.. i just wish he didn’t do it at the expense of his own character.

T Styles you did it again!!!
All I can say is too much I was on the edge of my seat. T Styles was throwing so much at me in this book I couldn't take it or put it down. This series have been off the chain. I was yelling at my Kindle and phone like it was a horror movie. I'm like no he didn't do it or is she crazy. I was emotional. But I made it through to quick loved all of it everything.

Exceptionally well done!!!!
Poor Mason just couldn't let go. I have never heard that many lies in all my life. I thought her memory would eventually come back. Those twins were special, Ace was just like Mason and Walid like Banks, he always took up for his brother like Banks used to do Mason. Loved it. Gotta move on to them twins though. I can't wait to see if they ever come back together, never I know Banks ain't leaving the twins behind.

Awww
Is it over? Is that end? No more Banks and Mason? Say it ain't so. I'm kind of upset that I read it so fast bc even though it is totally unconventional I loved it. I was so torn about Mason's actions that I needed to see the turn out. With how everything turned out I just need ONE more book 😂😂 no but seriously very good book and series. Those twins are something else......

Banks Returns
This book was really good. Finally the truths comes out. I'm surprised the family let this go on its like Banks was being held hostage. It was almost like Invasion of The Body Snatches Remake . I forgot about Joey and Preach. The end was epic. I Can't wait to see what happens next. Will Banks ever get his memory back? Then what will he do?

Another great read!!
For the first time in this series I really felt bad for Mason. You can't tell me that Banks and him aren't meant to be together, they are like to kindred tormented souls. I literally was holding my breath reading the two chapters.

Mason...Banks..Lies
T. Styles never disappoints and this series has so much drama, lies, and obsession it will keep you totally engaged. I love how the storyline has evolved and is keeping me on edge to the end. I can’t get enough of Wales and Lou’s !

This book felt a little chaotic to me. It seemed like everybody was all over the place. Mason was definitely on pins & needles the whole book but he did get a little of what he wanted. Banks was just in the dark the whole time.

Wow wow wow
T. Styles I'm like your #1 fan. I felt bad for Mason even though he was long. Love is so hard to let go when you wanted it all your life. I hope backs learn forgiveness with his kids. Excellent read.

The end?
No! I think it wasn’t fair to include the kids in the cut off because they were literally threatened, even jersey. Mason was very wrong to use banks memory loss to his advantage. Hopefully banks will get his memory back and rekindle his relationship with his kids

I’m so enthralled in this series! I can’t understand why everyone is letting him handle this situation. It was bad enough her grandmother was lying and deceitful. I can’t wait for Banks to get his memory back and take control. I can’t wait to see how the Ace and Walid situation will be handled.

Too much reference to curly hair and light skin the story line really dragged out, out . I was expecting more from this author since the other books were creative and interesting

Page turner
Great continued read. Each volume has been a page turner. Hard to put down. Makes you eager to continue the book. Did not see Banks getting his memory back so quickly. Also did not see Dashed actually being pregnant.
