Awesome job ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

Latoya as always you never disappoint us. This book was so good from beginning to end. It had me laughing so hard I had tears in my eyes. That Wraith didn’t come to play with no one lol. He had everyone scared. I believe I was afraid too lol. I’m glad everything worked out for all the couples hoping to hear from them all again. Keep up the great work.

❤️🔥❤️🔥

I absolutely loved this book. Wraith needed all the move he could endure. He had a terrible childhood. I felt bad for Darren in the end of how hurt he was from his own guilt. Everyone deserves a second chance BUT the way Wraith put fear in them all was hilarious

Now Wraith’s woman had a bad luck with men thanks to her father. That was a sick man. I’m glad he got what he deserved. This series was great ‼️

Man…

This book had me in tears from laughing so hard. I absolutely loved it. It explained a lot about the past and what had previously happened. Lady, Jew and Dakota ended up with some psycho men who would go to the end of the world for them. Little Cammy was something else. Vinny hurt a lot of people and deserved everything that he got. Secrets were disclosed and Wraith actually got the love and family that he deserved.

Never disappoints

I couldn't put this book down at all. Wraith was so unhinged, the whole crew was shook. Even his parents, Dakota has her work cut out for her, but I truly enjoyed how she loved him flaws and all. I was in tears from laughing so hard, but I expected nothing less from Latoya 😂

Sooooooo good!!!

I absolutely loved it!!! The monster had to learn to be human!!! Wraith was a monster so long it gave him the gratification he needed until he found and rescued his true love. I guess the saying that love concurs all is true for him. It made him want to change for it. Exceptional story and extremely hilarious!!!

Wraith, Pres and Diego were men once they loved it was as they said it’s for life and they had no issue unaliving others in the way.
TT was hilarious and Cammy lil ass couldn’t hold water 🤣

yes 👍🏾

Book 3 is definitely a good read I enjoyed reading the story. The comedy was good, and wow who would’ve thought Hank/Vinny who is the one that was trying to take them down all alone He got what he deserved. I’m happy at the end everybody is happy and having new babies and starting new lives and everyone is respecting their love ones now that they have closure.

The best for last!

This book has so many moments that brought me laughter and amusement. I enjoyed all 3 parts of the series!! I’m so happy Diego & Jew got their HEA. The storyline was beautiful and I love how they formed a family and accepted each other. This was my first read by this author and won’t be my last!

This series is in my 2025 rafters! I would recommend.

hilarious !

Just like the first 2 this book was absolutely hilarious. It also has the emotional pull and drama behind it that is needed to keep you engaged in the book. I love the character development of Al the characters in this series and how they all have their person specifically tailored to what they need. Definitely worth the read.

I was cracking up because everyone fear Wraith! All he needed was the right woman for him to feel!

So much secrets and betrayal, and let me tell you her dad was a POS! Just grimy and slimy.

Love how all the couples bonded and aunty T still cray cray!

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

This series went out with a BANG! All three books were good, but this book was definitely my favorite! Wraith was a menace, a gangsta, & a gentlemen. Everyone seen Wraith as a monster, but only Dakota got to see his soft gentle side.

Whew Wraith was crazy, scary, deranged all of that but he loved Dakota. Dakota was a good one I probably would of ran away from him. Glad to see that the crew is still together can't wait to see what's next.

That was very good. The way Wraith let Dakota pull his layers of emotions was great. I like the bond that they had with the other couples.
