Hmm…
I almost didn’t finish this book, but I pushed myself to see it through. This book didn’t pick up until I was halfway through the book.
EDITING MATTERS!!!
This book had so much potential, but at times the improper grammar really took away from the story. So many things left in the air. It’s like everything that transpired after they had sex was rushed then the book ended. Like what made Elson an evil S.O.B🤔? WTF happened that made him beat tf out of his sister🤔🤔🤔?!? Maybe I missed it, but what happened to Clarence after she beat him up for cheating🤔

Accidental love at it's best
Arman and Leylani turned out to be a beautiful accident. Imagine shutting your heart off because of trauma and betray, vowing to never love again, only to fall deeper than you thought possible. I loved how organic this story felt and how everything ended. I just wish we could've got to know El better to understand why he was the way he had been in the past. I hated that Arman never got to meet his grandmother, but things happen like that realistically as well. This series makes you want to step out on faith and pray that your own summer fling ends with a HEA. I'm really loving this series and reading authors that are new to me. Great read a d highly recommended.

Unexpected Love Works
Jaz, such a sweet read. Lani and Armin were just right for one another. I even liked Armin being a tad bit needy but he was all man. He loved well. The family dynamics were like some houses.
Lani got over her fear, Jessie and El found peace with one another. I loved Ms. Elsie she reminded me of my mom with her actions. Finding peace in themselves made the journey all the better. 🤗🤗🤗🤗

Awesome series
Third book and I enjoyed everyone of them so far...
But I like how pregnancy does not happen until little while give you chance to learn the couple...
Araman and Lani both found something both didn't know they needed a second chance at love and happiness...
Wish El and his mom and sisterJessie could have gotten a chance to make up before
She passed away...
I recommend this series

This story was like a Lifetime Movie. Leylani made a move and it changed her life. Arman is a good dude with a bih azz dad. I can’t stand him. I’m so glad Ms. Elsie got right by Jessie and the timing wasn’t perfect but much needed. Lacey showed up had her fun and left. My kind of gurl. Loved it

Arman and Ley'lani
Hey, such a sweet story! The connection between Lani and Ms. Essie was super cute. It was awesome seeing Jessie patch things up with her mom. Kinda bummed that El didn't get the same chance. Wish Arman could've met his grandma too. Cool that El softened up a bit for his family. 💞💞

Great story
Finally leylani let that man come in her life and be the man she needed cause saying it was just for fun was not it she knew she had build up some feeling for him and el was too much but that's good how he encouraged his son to go chase after what was right and that was getting his love back to be happy again

Mrs Elsie was a trip. I was hoping her and her son Elson could put their differences behind them? I still don't understand why the Author didn't tell us why Elson did that to Jessie? Leylani was an excellent mother. Mylani

Loved it
I love happy endings. I am so happy that Arman's family is back together and his mom is home and doing well. Sometimes family is all we need. I knew Arman and Leylani would end up together. Now they are married with a baby. Great Read!
