Not Built To Love: The Lyon's Den Series Book #2

Rate this book
Being the younger brother, Kashece Lyons was always treated as the baby. He was young and wild, living his life as he saw fit. Each time he hits a bump in the road, his brothers, King and Kashmere are always there to smooth it. When it comes to love, they couldn't help him with that. Especially when it came down to him and Tiece Cromwell. Their love was so toxic, they didn't know if they didn't want to be with each other sometimes, but they did know they didn't want to see the other with someone else.

Kashece does have a soft side and shows Tiece that side of him when he can, but one thing Kashece doesn't play with is family. Tiece will find out eventually.

As much as a I hate cliffhangers

I will be back to see what happened at the doctor's visit. I don't know why Tiece continues to play with Kashece. He showed her who he was and will be in the future, so why pray tell does Tiece not understand the assignment? I'll be back!

This series is addictive!

“Not Built to Love” will have you in the edge of your seat! It’s a toxic love story but I want the main characters to make it seriously!! And another Cliffhanger having me trying to hurry and download the third installment!!

smh

Tiece and Kashece gonna really take me through it. Their situation was not gonna work once feelings from both parties got involved. Now I was hoping Tiece was gonna realize Shece was not gonna let things go as she planned. He warned her and she still tried it. Now how he got to her is one question I need answered. Hopefully they can work things out but right now the toxicity is high when it comes to those two. Can’t wait til King’s book. He has so much going on but his character so far has been the most quiet so I don’t know if that’s a good thing or a bad thing.

When The Person You Love Is the Version Of Yourself

K.Nicole man these Lyon guys are something else.Kashece is a character all in his own. Tiece has him all in his feelings, although they are so much alike it is scarey.when tying to understand what's going onTiece runs into another situation that she feels she has it under control but again Kashece has other plans. Lord,I can't wait to see what happens nexy🤗🤗🤗🤗

Ummm this was okay…

These two are a hot mess, most of this book was just a recap of what happen with them from the first book, I guess I wanted more. But that ending I definitely ready to see what happened. Kashece asked Tiece not to do it and she didn’t listen 🤦🏾‍♀️. I would like to know if Kashece is 25 how is he the youngest because I thought Kash was 25, I’m confused!

Oooh

I can understand how Trice and Shece have a toxic situation because they are both scared of being hurt and don't want to lose their "freedom". Honestly if they would just talk everything would be ok and they would have a better understanding of each other. Man these two are crazy but I can't wait to see what happens next

Maannn Kashece so wild

When I say Kashece don’t give a damn. I didn’t want Tiece to get an abortion anyway. I feel like the baby would change them both. It’s crazy because they both want to be with each other don’t too toxic and feel like one gone get played. This book was good. The only thing would be the repetitiveness from the precious book. It was a 4.5

This book is the epitome of toxicity at its finest. Two people who definitely care for each other but to stubborn and prideful to show it. I really want to know what happened at that clinic. I hate cliffhangers but i wants to see what’s going on with these two.

Girl I loved it you most definitely did that. I can’t wait to read the next book. I wonder if Tiece really got the abortion though. Kashece wasn’t playing with her though and I loved it.

Oh she thought she was about to go kill his legacy. She must have forgotten who her child's father was. Yea she went to sleep and he picked her right up. Lol I bet it was the dude at the club who told him. Poor little tink tink.

I don’t like all these cliffhangers

Book one ended on a cliffhanger that book 2 doesn’t even address. You have to read book 3 to see what’s next with both books. That was a little confusing for me. However I did like diving deeper into Kashece & Tiece story.

Cause stop playing with that man. They really are toxic, but I think that’s because they always done them and ain’t used to their dynamics but can’t help what their beings are forcing themselves into. King hot next.

Two different view points isn’t actually toxic just one sees the other can be and make better decisions or choices in life.

Kash

On page 72 you again mixed up the names . You wrote Tiece asked Sevyn not to tell King she was getting an abortion. Sevyn is in a relationship with Kash.

I need more. I need to know what’s going on. Don’t leave us hanging. I love the characters but Tiece is too mean. She needs to lighten up.

Kashece and T were super toxic but I understand each of their viewpoints. I am interested to see if love is enough for them. On to book 3!

They were toxic....

But it was from a lack of communication, had they been really honest with one another then I think things would have been different.

Drama

It was a good read but the FMC was very annoying. There has to be some trauma there. And most men wouldn’t want someone they care about out working under those circumstances.
