I love Summer and hate that she has endured soooo much in such a short amount of time and now its about to get worse! I like Rah and Nasi's vibe!! I wish she would just stop playing and go ahead & make it do what it do!! Kennedy boop head just ain't enough of the ghetto I see......she stay running her mouth!! Its something about Bray that just don't ait well with my spirit!!! Idk why but I just feel like he sneaky and ain't way he making his self out to be!! How u gonna end it like that though!!??

Amazing Book

This book was everything. I was rooting for Chase and Summer. I just knew he was so perfect for Summer, and I know everybody makes mistakes but this nigga crushed my soul. How he do Summer like that and with Emoni of all people. Then he had the nerve to pillow talk with the hoe and he didn't know what he was talking about. I can admit that I thought she did the unthinkable to. I don't know if Chase deserves Summer's forgiveness but if Nasi don't make it she's gonna need all the strength and love he's able to give.💕💕

Satisfied Reader

Things have gotten REAL. I was team Chase til he started to think with the wrong head. He did all the chasing to play with someone's feelings. Summer just don't know which way to turn. Braylon should've been more aware of his surroundings. Nasi was a good friend and i pray she's ok to get her man. He will only wait so long. Kami and Kennedy is just messy times two. I pray that Chase dodges the bullet with Kami name on it coming his way. I can't wait for pt.2

I have followed him from the beginning

First things first...great read.....Now Cole heart,I have 7 books, waiting for the next book. In beginning , I knew, how many books and when new books still to come. But now, things are different. Waiting 5 to 7 months for a follow thru is crazy. It's not your fault, but when it takes so long. Then I have to deal
With the wait. For example diamond and Legend.......

Can’t wait till the next Installment

This book took me down memory lane. Chase knew better and did it anyway. But he did what a lot of guys do. The baby mama up to something and I hope it comes to light. She was too thirsty for his attention, he should have known! I hope we see Rah and her cousin story because rah seems like a good dude.

Young love

This story was good. The prologue peaked your interest and it was on from there. I personally don't like to read about high schooler, so I almost didn't finish it but because she is a new author I decided to finish the book. I actually enjoyed it and I will read the next installment. Few errors,but overall it is good.

Great Story!
This story had me hooked from the very first page! Chase chased after Summer for years. Once he got her and she fell in love with him, he couldn't respect the relationship.
This story is a rollercoaster ride of ups and downs. The author did a great job with character development. Their experiences were true to life. I love this story!!!!

Loved it

I can't believe Nasi is dead. I wasn't expecting that at all. I feel it for Summer though. She keeps losing people that she loves. I hope part 2 have a happy ending. Great Read.
