Wicked Intentions (Hollis Brothers Book 1)

A very entertaining read. The words flowed fluidly, despite some grammatical errors. The storyline was pretty fast-paced and definitely kept me interested.
I've only read a couple of interracial books so far (plan to read more), and I'm wondering... is 'chocolate skin' a common colour reference? Because it leaves me guessing as to what type of chocolate. Milk chocolate? Dark chocolate? White chocolate? Chocolate with caramel swirls? I'm just saying.
I really liked the fact that this story was told in dual POV. I can't stress enough how much I enjoy more than one stance or point of view in a book. And a good author can make you feel like you're in the head of the individual character. Linda Verji nailed it. I could feel Shakira's naïveté, her hurt over her mother, her struggle to be good despite her upbringing, her love for those close to her. I could feel Nathan's doubts, his hurt over his mother, and his love for those close to him.
I really enjoyed the mystery throughout this book. I really didn't guess who the true perpetrator was until it was revealed. I love being stumped. The ending was cute and I'm glad for the HEA. I think after all these characters went through, they deserved it.
