Darian has now taken the top spot! Khyri had it for a minute, but I knew Darian was coming for the throne, and he didn’t hesitate. Iesha Bree knew what she was doing when she created this story because there was nobody for Darian but Eva.
Best friends to lovers is one of my favorite tropes if done right. The plot must be on point because the fear of ruining everything is always in the couple’s minds. I loved how they fought the attraction without pretending to be blind to the facts. The outside factors were positive and negative, giving this story more complexity, even Romeo’s foolish behind😒
I’m really loving this family and their acceptance and accountability. Eva was perfect for my boo. The way he loved on this woman was beautiful. She gave as good as she got so she can be my sister-wife😝 We get to see many facets of Darian, and I now understand him more. He said there is only one woman for him many times, and he was absolutely right (I’m the bonus). I’m looking forward to the next book because Zarah is too mysterious for me not to be intrigued!

Darian and Eva ❤️

I adore a good friends-to-lovers trope, and this book did not disappoint. The nerve of Romeo to question or accuse Eva of anything was unbelievable! Darian, from the moment he met Eva, knew he wanted her in his life. Their friendship before becoming official was truly endearing. Despite his reputation as a ladies' man, Darian realized that he had to approach Eva differently if he wanted to be with her. She was not someone to be trifled with, and he knew he couldn’t treat her like the others. I'm glad he got his act together and became the man she deserved.

Definitely my favorite of the series so far! This one just felt easy. I loved Eva and Darian’s friendship. The way everything fell in line with Mahogany. It had its small dramatic moments to keep it interesting but it was definitely for the soft girl era and I’m not mad!

My favorite trope and a trope I hate all in one book. This was a cute somewhat funny story. Of course I’m reading the series out of order but it’s not very noticeable.

Sweet and heartwarming...

This was just the sweetest and most hard warming book in this series to date. I absolutely love Darien and Eva together, Their friendship was literally what I feel like most people want and it leads to like a good lasting relationship in the long run. I definitely just fell so deep in love with Darien and how he was like getting his life together and accepting the fact that he was a father and really wanted to make that work... Not only that knowing that he had that attraction to his best friend but didn't want to lose that friendship. Both hen and Eva were just wonderful human beings and the addition of mahogany made this book a 1000 times better. There's literally nothing this author can write as I'm not really a fan of friends to lovers but this very and friends to lovers just had me smiling the entire way through it. And even though most times I love me a good messy book this book was just laid out beautifully and I really surely enjoyed it. If you ain't read any of these books in this series stop doing yourself a disservice and go read them.

The right one, gone and get your man

Darian knew he was the man. Everyone, especially women, tried to use some of everything to get a piece of him. But he didn’t do forever; he did for now. It was not his fault he was a catch.
He had love for his family and Eva.
Eva had been his best friend since grade school. Anytime they were seen together, it was the same question. Why aren’t they dating? To him the answer was simple: he couldn’t see himself doing her the way he did other women.
Eva was a good girl, family oriented, good values, passionate about her craft and business, and loyal friend. There was nothing she wouldn’t do for him and him for her. But can you maintain this type of friendship and a relationship too?
Life has a way of shifting things around and shaking things up, that puts you in situations to see what and who is really right for you.
This was a good read!

Kings Catch

Darian!!! I knew my friend was underestimated. He & Eva are a match made in heaven. I really thought they were just ONLY friends that had a crush & just thought about one another at times but it was way deeper. Mahogany!!! I love her little sass. So sweet & innocent. Hate what happened to Jasmine but it was perfect timing. Mahogany is a true blessing. I’m more intrigued with Kinsley from each story but I’m glad Zarah is next! She acts like a secret agent! You’ve had me wrapped since book 1!!!!

Kings catch

I really enjoyed this friends to lovers story and this series just seems to keep getting better and better to me. Darian and Eva were perfect for each other and everybody saw their love and connection beyond friendship before they finally acknowledged it, but once they did, it was full steam ahead. These two didn’t waste anymore time and I loved that for them. This book had very minimal drama and I enjoyed that as well. I’m excited to see what will come from the next book in the series.

Caught By A King

Darian King is a known player, reckless mouth screw up. But when reality of one of his reckless ways comes knocking at his door, he realizes it time to make life changing decisions.

Darian & Eva’s journey from lifelong besties to so much more is simply sweet and heartwarming. It was my pleasure to tag along and experience their love unfolding. It was great seeing the rest of the King family and getting to know the newest addition, Mahogany.

I enjoyed Kings Catch and you will too. Good job, Author Iesha Bree.

Great read

Great read, I enjoyed the characters and storyline. Darian and Eva are lifelong best friends. They are ride or die. Darian got an unexpected surprise, a three year daughter Mahogany, from a one night stand. Eva stood with him through this transition. They always loved each other, but didn’t want to ruin their friendship. This is Darian and Eva finally to admitting their true feelings, on their journey to forever love and happiness. This was another fun adventure with the King family.

So Good

I must say Darian King story was surprisingly refreshing. Although I thought it was going to be full of drama it was funny and beautiful, all in one. This story really tells how you should be friends before lovers. Darian was tired of hinting at the so call perfect woman and finally told Eva what was up. The way Eva stepped in and took on the role of motherhood and how she loved Mahogany down was beautiful. Great read

It's A Wonderful Day When You Realize What's Right In Your Face.

Iesha Bree, I'm loving this King Dynasty Series. Darian has been my favorite now that he has matured I can only see things going up for he and Eva. I really loved the maturity he gained when he got his surprise visit. One never would've guessed. I love how each sibling has his or her own thing but they will come together as one when needed.🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

Good Read

I am really enjoying this series so far. The cover is so good. Iesha Bree has mastered the technique for creating an amazing story. This is best friends to lovers with very low drama. Darian and Eva story was so sweet. I really liked the growth in Darian character. He started off a hoe and ended up a family man. I also really enjoy the glimpses into the previous couples lives. The ending made me excited for the next King siblings story.

Darian is my favorite King brother! Sorry Zeno 🫣

Darian has really stepped up and left his player ways! This book was sweet, spicy, and soooo swoony! Mahogany was so cute and literally the sweetest child! The story flowed so well and the character development was amazing! The author Iesha is not playing when it comes to this series! I can’t recommend this enough! Definitely a must read as usual! 💖

She Did It Again!

Outstanding! I got into this author at the start of this series and she has not disappointed! Witnessing this youngest King"s growth was indeed a treat! Friends to Lovers isn't enough to describe what D and Eva experienced. These soul mates finally allowed the inevitable to happen. It's so organic and authentic they way their love for one another took hold in the season it was fully developed for. I truly enjoyed this read! Great job!

Darian’s story was not what I was expecting especially when the baby showed up. But I loved everything about it from beginning to end. Darian and Eva’s relationship and friendship was so beautiful and strong I loved how they were there for each other no matter what. I can’t wait to see what else the King family has in store.

Good Juicy

I love this series IB is creating and writing. Sometimes you do not know what it is front of you.
Until vision becomes clear maybe foggy but clear. It was time for these to close this deal and make this official and get the love they deserve. The friendship was so important to her and I just adored that for her from her.

beautiful

I wasn’t prepared for this one but so far this one has been the best. Just think Darian of all the Kings was the one that has had the best story line. Great story. Kinda sad for Mahogany but I am sure she will prevail with the love she is receiving. I really enjoyed reading this one.


Happy Reading‼️

friends to lovers

Eva and Darian were fated. I could feel their love from the first chapter. I hate it took them so long to accept their destiny. Mahogany was just what Darian needed to grow up and get his girl. They just gave me all the feels. Now I can’t wait to see what Zarah has going on.

So good!

I enjoyed Darian and Eva's story. Darian was not exactly the playboy he was portrayed to be in his siblings stories. The timing of his personal changes and Eva's relationship ending was perfect for the two of them. From there, it was smooth sailing. I also loved how neither of the families were surprised at the relationship. 5 stars

Cone thru Darian

This was a really cute friends to lovers story. Although it just works all of my nerve when the female tries to keep the males close but far at the same time. It’s almost like they were being selfish with who they truly were but was cool with saying that’s my best friend. Nonetheless, I enjoyed this story and now I have to read about the other King siblings.
