Honesty and Sincere pulled me in from the start. She’s newly single, trying to protect her heart while adjusting to motherhood and building her career. He’s a man hardened by life, with a reputation that makes people step back, but beneath all of that is a soul craving something real.

I loved how their worlds collided. What could have been an ending turned into an unexpected beginning, and watching them work through pain, trauma, and guarded hearts made their bond feel raw and powerful. Sincere was ruthless in one breath and vulnerable in the next, and Honesty balanced that with her quiet strength.

This was gritty but tender, full of chaos and healing all at once. Mya gave us a love story that proves even damaged souls can find harmony when the timing is right.

🥰🥰🥰

Now you know you could’ve given us the birth😫 I really enjoyed this book. Sincere was something special with his vulnerability and the way he showed his love. After he found his mother, was my favorite part of the book. That showed how much he loved and trusted Honesty 😫 The boys were a handful but so sweet. Good job!

Sincerely, Her Gangsta Indeed

Sincere…whew what a man. He put action behind any and everything he said from taking care of business in the streets to his mom’s needs to Honesty and the kids. My girl Honesty definitely got a blessing when she met him. Grey did a number on her mentally and emotionally with his reaction to the news of the babies and I was immediately disgusted by him. Honesty showed him A LOT of grace because he took things too darn far for me. His actions as the story progressed made me dislike him even more, but I will say had his approach been different I wouldn’t have minded him meeting the twins. Whatever though.

I wish we got more of CJ and Sin’s relationship outside of business because they were definitely brothers in my book. My heart hurt seeing them at odd for a bit after Sin’s mother’s passing, but it was understandable. I also would have liked more from Honesty’s friends and sisters, they seemed like a good time.

I know this review is all over the place, but I smiled so much when reading it, I can’t pinpoint what I like most. I may have to reread it and update this later! Great job, Mya!

Sincere and Honesty

Honesty and Sincere were two damaged souls that were dealing with different traumas from their past. Honesty the heartbreak from a past relationship with her kids father that caused her to put on her big girl panties and be the best mom that she could be to her twin boys. Sincere struggles with his mom being on drugs and him having to basically raise himself and get out the mud to better his life. These two meeting was fate and destiny all in one. The way they both balanced each other out was exactly what they both needed. They both had a few bumps in the road dealing with their past but was able to move past it and get the happy ending that was meant for them. I truly enjoyed this book and would recommend that you download it you will not be disappointed.

Sincere and Honesty!!!

Honesty is a masseuse who was devastated by her last relationship. The man she thought loved her abandoned her in her time of need. Sincere is living his life in the streets and has a reputation that causes fear in most people. He is trying to make sure his mother is straight but is still haunted by the difficult upbringing she put him through. Honesty meets Sincere when he pays an extravagant amount of money for her to come to his home for a massage. Spending time together, they end up falling for each other. I was glad that falling in love with Honesty made Sincere a changed man. It made me happy that they were able to love each other and heal each other all at the same time. Just when life is going well for both of them, Honesty's ex, Grey, reappears wreaking havoc in her life and Sincere goes through the worst devastation in his life. I didn't feel sorry for the Grey once Sincere caught him at Honesty's job acting the crazy. He got what he deserved. I loved the way that Sincere treated Honesty's twins which was an extension of the way he loved Honesty. I loved this story of love and healing. Great story that you won't be able to put down.

So good!

This was a really good read. Honesty was hurt by her last relationship and had given up on dating and Sincere was so caught up in the streets that settling down was the last thing on his mind but when they met, the chemistry was off the charts. I love how Sincere changed for Honesty and showed his affection and love for her and let his guard down. Their love is one that people dream of. Mya definitely did her thing with this one. I definitely recommend this one. You won't regret it!

Emotional Rollercoaster but I loved it!

Honesty was nicer to Grey than he deserved. He deserved some unladylike words that would make a sailor blush. Sincere was the perfect balance of thug and romantic. I knew Will's reason for being a nuisance was going to be stupid 🙄. I loved the camaraderie between Honesty and her employees. Sincere let Honesty know what it was gon be between them & he stood on it! Phoenix and Orion were too cute. Grey missed the blessing with that rash decision he made.

If you’re looking for a simple African American, contemporary romance you may enjoy this book. For me the story ran a bit flat. Gray’s character seemed to do things unprovoked.

Sincerely, Her Gangsta

Honesty & Sincere! I love these two. I would love to feel those gifted hands on my shoulders & back lol! I’m glad neither of their drama events dragged on too long! I thought he was going to kill CJ. I hate what happened to Shantel, I had a feeling she was going to do right. I want to know the full truth about Wo! Overall great read!

Accountability is the word

I think my favorite thing about this book was the accountability taken and the self correction that took place. The growth of the characters. The duality, understanding that a man can be both menacing and loving. I also loved how honesty did not waiver when it came to Grey meeting the twins. His approach gave entitlement and self-serving which was proven after Sin beat his a$$ 😂😂😂

Sincere had to be so hard for so long, it was cute to see him soften! Honesty was dealt a devastating blow when her Ex Grey wanted her to abort their twins! Though they had some sad times in the end their love prevailed! Very good read!

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I loved this Story! Honesty and Sincere were so freaking cute together. I loved the way he loved her and her boys. He treated her like the Queen she was. She spoke life, love and peace in to him also. When a man finds the good woman he will change his whole life to be with her.

Sincere and Honestly needed someone that would love them to the fullest and that's what happened.... His mom was a addict but he tried to help her as much as he could.... She was left by her children's dad cause he wasn't ready to be a father. Honestly started her own business and was raising her boys and het comes Sincere needing a massage therapist she did a home visit and was on and popping after that. This was a awesome book

when you know you know

Soul mates fa’ sho! Sincere didn’t hide who he was and made a choice to be a better man for the woman he loved, his actions were clear. Grey messed up and Instead stepping up with truth, he thought bullying would get him what he wanted.
