loved

I loved the book. The were just what the other needed and deserved. The ones that deserved it got their karma. I would love a book on the brothers or the bestie.

Disappointing Romance With Weak Character Growth

I really wanted to enjoy this book, but the lack of character development made it hard to stay invested. Almost the entire story is centered on the FMC’s toxic ex, leaving very little room for the actual romance to grow. Instead of moving forward, the plot keeps circling the same drama.

The FMC’s choices also felt confusing and inconsistent. She refuses to move in with her supportive best friend, yet she’s perfectly fine taking money from her while continuing to live with the same toxic family she claims to need distance from. It made it difficult to believe her motivations or connect with her as a character.

And the romance… isn’t really a romance. The FMC and MMC go on one date, and suddenly we’re supposed to buy that they’re in love. There’s no emotional build-up, no chemistry, and no real bonding moments just a rushed insta-love that doesn’t feel earned.

Monroe needed therapy.....

She let way too many people run all over her for more than fifty-two percent of the book and then wouldn't accept help for the man who loved her until she almost lost him. I only finished this because I had read so much but I was not impressed with how she was bullied, emotionally, physically, and suffered through racism by her own family and the man who allegedly loved her for five years. In the end she got her happily ever after but the journey was rough and disheartening.

So good!

I truly enjoyed this. It was messy but not too much. Just enough to keep you engaged and enthralled from beginning to end. I love how Monroe and Gavin found each other. Love Ms. Luella and his brothers and loved her best friend too. I ain't go on who I hated in the book cuz that would be a whole paragraph abs giving the story away lol I felt enjoyed this and definitely recommend if you want to be smiling in the end.

Amazing story

This was my first read by the author and I loved it! Monroe was finally loved properly and I’m glad her ex got what he deserved. To think he played in her face the whole relationship upset me. I got so excited when she bought the lottery ticket thinking she was about to become a millionaire lol 10/10 read

cute read

This was a quick read! I liked the drama from beginning to end. I couldn’t believe that it was the Momma because I was definitely thinking it was the sister. Monroe and Gavin was better than me.

Roe and G

She went through a lot. Financial abuse is real and just as damaging as physical abuse. Kraig didn’t suggest enough for me. What was up with the mother? In the end, true love persevered.
