Crazy
This couple was toxic and they deserved to be with eachother. I was happy that Juke had to jump and chase Bri the entire book because he was a menace.

First time reading from this author and I enjoyed this book. Now it may just be me, but Bri worked my nerves a little bit I just don’t see how she got mad at juke about something he didn’t even know! And when he did get to her he told her the truth like he always did…he wasn’t a saint when he approached her I know but he was single and she was still in a relationship so I’m just wondering how the hell she mad at him like he cheated or lied?? Juke was hilarious😂 I really like how no matter what he always kept it real with Bri! He showed up and showed out for her I loved the brotherly bond between the guys, hoping to hear more about Tre and Monique. The book was good,highly recommended

1st, let me say this Juke and Tre is a whole mess. This unexpected love was so good. Bri definitely gave Juke a run for his money, but I loved the way he loved her and gave her his all. And Marcus gay ass doing all that shit just to get his sh*t rocked and still ain't get his women back. So glad they work through their issues and got back together had a baby and soon to get married yessssss ❤️ and tre ass popping all that stuff about Juke and Megan got him wrapped around her finger 🤣 I'm happy for them too. This was a great live story. Hopefully, we get an update, maybe a spinoff. Great Job Ms. Rich, I will be reading more by you!

good
This was funny and had a lot of plot twist. Juke was a mess. While he was very blunt and truthful with Brinae. Brinae getting involved with Juke while being in a relationship was wild but what happened at the family dinner had me smh. Then to find out dude was on the DL was crazy. She should’ve been ended that relationship. Juke had her head so gone. I do feel like Bri flipped on Juke for nothing without getting details when she was in a whole relationship with other dude and was mad about how he was moving. This was Crazy messy and funny.

Great read
Brinae made a good choice when she decided to move closer to her family for a fresh start. I knew her boyfriend Marcus was up to no good but the twist is what caught me off guard and for he to turn crazy afterwards sad when you refuse to accept the truth, now as for Juke he was hilarious the way he kept pop tarts as a thank you as well as $40 for a parting gift after sex but when he laid eyes on Brinae I knew he was going to get all twisted up.

Not Enough
This book was written to women who believe the do know wrong and the men in their lives don’t hold them accountable! It was well written, but lacked depth! I will say it made me laugh! So, if your looking for a laugh from an unrealistic story this is for you! I like Juke, and hopped he’d find him a better suitor than Bri!!!

So Much for Team Marcus
I thought I’d found a kindred spirit reading about a nerd in a sweater vest until… well… another plausible title for this book could have been Unexpected Humor because despite the occasional gangster turn, the author kept the action & dialogue light and flowing.

Bri and Juke
Juke first met Bri helping her move because his best friend/brother was her cousin. It was love at first sight for him. Bri gave him a hard time then she gave in to her feelings. Juke messed up and Bri was through, except they would be forever linked whether they became a couple or not! A great read!

Good story
I enjoyed this book. From beginning to end, it had me feeled with emotions but in a good way. Naturally, the title said it all but it was also filled with the occasional twist and turns.

ok
The lead female worked my nerves so badly that it was ridiculous because she was so emotionally immature. It does not make any sense. She played him like a yo-yo. It was crazy. I just did not like her.

I really enjoyed this book. He protected her from day one, now that’s love. He was willing to learn sign language to communicate with her. Julian gave Bri the world.

retired the cape
Juke fell hard for Bri as well as her! They connected on a different level. I’m happy they didn’t give up on each other and got all the b.s. people out the way.

So........
Juke and Tre were like blood Brothers without the DNA needed. Juke and Bri, fell in love at first sight. But she was in a relationship with Cornball Marcus so she took the friendship route at first.Playing hard to get sometimes gets you burned. Wheww Marcus did the unthinkable, I didn't see that coming 😳. Brinae and Juke doing more than just making love.... this book really will have you laughing, upset and in love all at the same time. It's a journey worth taking though. Great Job, Sammi Rich

Ups and Downs
Bri and Juke’s relationship was unexpected. I preferred the book's first half, where I got to know them as individuals rather than focusing on their relationship with each other. Tre was a likable character. However, I didn’t feel a connection with the other couples. Halfway through the story, I lost interest, even though there was drama. Something was missing for me.
