Swapped A Bum For A Boss 2
Three women. One wild ride. And a finale that proves sometimes, love isn't enough—but it sure as hell changes everything.
Savvy was supposed to be a secret—a guilty pleasure, a needed escape. But when the truth about his identity explodes, Xyla finds herself torn between the man who gave her nothing but stress and secrets, and the man who's shown her real consistency, protection, love, passion, peace, and luxury. Now, with Maleek’s lies unraveling fast and Savvy demanding answers, Xyla must walk away from both for the sake of her sanity—or surrender to the love that never made her question her worth.
Cali’s world turns upside down when one conversation unearths the one thing she never wanted to Draco might be her twins’ real father. The truth has been buried under guilt and denial, but the past refuses to stay quiet. That one reckless night comes back with a vengeance, and Cali is left with a gut-wrenching choice. Come clean and risk everything? Or protect her peace, even if it means living a lie?
Skye finally has a reason to breathe again—Monte is awake. His return should’ve felt like a miracle. But it comes with the weight of everything left unsaid, undone, and unresolved. As Monte recovers and tries to reclaim his place in her life, Skye must decide if love is enough… or if healing means letting go.
In this explosive finale, secrets won’t just surface—they’ll detonate.
Friendships will be tested. Relationships will shatter and rebuild. And when the truth knocks, nobody’s ready for what it’s dragging through the door.

50/50 Love
This book took me back to when I first read the first book! I loved this book, the author brought more to the story than before and I was there for it. Always remember you can’t call everyone your friend, be careful and always watch the way they moved.
Great Story

My Sister, My BestFriend, My Cousin and Our Men
This book, this series deserved more than 5 stars!!!…I laughed so hard and cried even harder as I took this journey with Cali and Xyla!!!…These 2 women showed just how different we are, even when we see ourselves the same!!!…We hurt for the same things and help each other through our healing!!!…
Although we say what we won’t accept from a man, does not mean we are not living in the same h3ll no matter if we are smiling or crying!!!…
In walks 2 men, Savvy and Draco, sees 2 women that are what they need, just as badly as they want them and they get them, while watching what they endured from the men they say they love!!!…
Cali was definitely that woman that knew her what she wanted and was fighting to get there, but in slow motion!!!…Draco for get was the force that needed to push her to her goal, and he did and didn’t hide the fact!!!…All while he was fighting his own demons and Cali was the woman to help him in his healing process!!!…
Savvy went a different route in plotting the demise of Xyla’s relationship with the man that was suppose to be supporting her, while living on his wild side in the background!!!…
I cried like a baby with what Maleek did to Papa Gene and I was so happy his fate was the same!!!…Kelsie didn’t want Xyla to have what she had, but Kelsie had it with Savvy’s boyfriend!!!…Crazy how your closet enemy is your bestie!!!…She got what she deserved and I was here for it!!!…

Another 1
Part 2 was life I really enjoyed the evolution of Xyla how she found her independence and still aloud Savvy to provide for her…Let’s not leave the out Cali and Draco…I felt like Cali should’ve told Draco as soon as she found out that he was a one of the guys she slept with, whether she believed it or not…I felt like Xyla should’ve took heed to what Maleek had said to her because she knew what he had done to his friend…I could only imagine how Xyla felt when she out that her best friend had a baby by your man…Maleek and Kelsie were foul asf for that…At the end of the day they both got what they deserved…Aundray was a sick soul for what she did to Cali and her sister!!!

Wooooooooooww what a ride!
Savvy does not play about Xyla and he made sure that any person or thing that caused her pain found out why he's the Boss. I knew Maleek was no good but he turned out to be downright trifling and evil. I knew Kelsie was hiding something but she was hiding a few things smh. Cali and Draco need help 😆 Draco brings that alpha energy that Cali needs and respects. Audrey wasn't even worthy to be called Cali's mom. She got what she deserved in the end though 😁 Jayceon and his mom tried to keep secrets, but like a true mama's weak boy he had some loose lips during pillow talk. Xyla truly saved herself from a bum and got with a boss!

This is like 3.5/4.5...it was great but soooooo long. I don't think part 2 was necessary. I had to fight not to DNF it was a battle I nearly lost at points and then I had to skim read because some parts were repetitive and predictable. The story was entertaining. I didn't have much of a connection with the characters I felt like they were all morally grey and confusing lol But it wasn't bad just too long for me. I like a good long read but it has to be engaging, suspenseful with dynamic characters. Alecia J is a great writer just not my preference. But I will recommend it if you like a really long read with twisted characters lol

BRAVOOOOOOO
Alecia! Perfection. This book was a great length too. Savvy was and will always be my favorite. The epitome of a provider, protector, and lover. Draco showed the most growth. I truly love the character he ended up becoming. Xyla and Cali always had the telepathy thing going, and now we know why. Love them so much. This book was a great continuation with the name change and all. Alecia J is one of my favorite authors. I feel blessed to be able to read these amazing storylines!

Always Chess ..never checkers
Every single person who crossed Xyla and Cali got exactly what they deserved. These nggas were playing in their face too much and too long. They were spared too many times for my liking. They finally opened their eyes and got rid of the dead weight. Savvy and Draco were the EXACT big dawgs they needed. Savvy and Draco both made it know from the beginning they would be applying the right amount of pressure and not letting up. The girls got to live the princess treatment they deserve. They men really made sure they wanted for nothing and I love that for them.Draco and Savvy both had me dying 😭😭😭 something is wrong with the both of the.
One thing about them secrets babbbyyyyy they gon always gon come to light. Kimberlee should have suffered just like the others 🤷🏾♀️.

Bun to Boss
A great read, but longer than needed to be, nonetheless I read it with great anticipation! All of the couples that should have wound up together did! Those grimy brother Jayceon and Maleek along with their mama received what they deserved for hurting folks with no remorse! The realization of their sisterhood for Cali and Xyla was perfect! In any relationship depending non the circumstances the responsibility can be 50/50, 75/25 or 80/20 with love and respect anything is possible!

Oscar Worthy!!
Alexis J did her Thang with this series!! I could visualize all the characters and the emotions they went thru!! We all have met or heard about a Jayceon or Maeleek's character!! They deserved everything they got and more!!!! Both parts of this series was well written and Oscar Worthy!! I don't want to give the story away, so I can only say you will NEVER REGRET reading Alecia J books! My favorite characters were Cali and Draco.

Everyone has a purpose in our lives to be a lesson, season or lifetime. Just because someone helped you along the way doesn’t mean they were loyal or helpful from the heart.
Envy isn’t often seen or felt from those around us once you see the person true identity run.

😍😍😍😍😍
I loved this book the whole series even. I loved Draco and Cali and Savvy and Xyla. I actually predicted that Xy and Cal were sisters and that hoe Audrey done stole that baby at birth and killed her sister but I’m glad she got what she deserved. I’m glad everyone that did the sisters and men wrong got put down. This book was a crazy, messy and good fun.

Nice ending
I liked part 2 way more than I did 1. I and not a fan of the overly wordy moments the author has in the book....it takes the story done(to me) however the extra layers of drama was more funny than drama and I loved that as well ms cali and Draco. All in all a good ending

Don’t put this book down
I’m speechless this book was crazy and I love ever bit of it . Alecia J did her thing with this book. Savvy was so real and sexy as hell. I love the way he showed Xyla the kind of man he was. Draco and Cali were made for each other. Seriously read this book you will not regret it especially those nasty scenes.

A Gem Dropping Playbook!
Omgggg, part 2 was everything you could imagine. It was chaotic, insightful, hilarious, and shocking just to name a few. The quotes O.M.G., I am certain there was something for everyone. Alecia J. Outstanding!!! 5🌟

great
This is a great book. Glad to see that the girls got happy endings after everything. They went through sometime in life we go through a lot. It feels like bad things get all the happiness in the world. This is great and refreshing.

This series was one for the books… so funny and so many life lessons. Audrey was a despicable human being, so glad she got hers, just wished everything came out earlier. Kelsie and Kimberlee were the worse friends ever.

Worth the read
Normally, I do not have patience for 600 page books much less a series that 1000 pages, but baby, this one was definitely worth it. Goodness gracious it was a LOT going on...

I really enjoyed this book. It was full of laughs and gems. Everyone who needed to be dealt with was handled accordingly. Too many errors though.
