The Break Up
Kaia Lennox thought she left DeyShawn Hayes in the past.
But when her ex resurfaces as the defense attorney for Flint’s most feared kingpin, and her new love interest might be tied to the case, the break-up starts to feel more like the beginning of something darker.
Caught between power, passion, and a truth that threatens to burn everything down, Kaia must decide who to trust—and what she’s really willing to risk for love, loyalty, and freedom.
The Break Up is a bold, emotionally raw urban romance about the ties that bind… and the secrets that break.

breona jai ate and left nooo crumbs with this one
Chileee!! Where do I start? First off I loved the drama. It was too real!! Now don’t get me wrong I love a HEA but I love a REAL STORY that plays out like it would in real life sometimes too. Back to Deyshawn and Kaia. The relationship drama is so real, the back and forth, Kaia is so down bad for Shawn especially since he’s the only man she’s ever really known. But then when you have a man like Zion Carter making waves in town, and sets his sights on Kaia? Things get messsy quick!!!! Add in a drug kingpin into the mix and then it all gets set off. This book was everything I needed. Drama, spice, realistic characters, and that ending?! Phewww. I can’t wait to see what is next for Breona Jai.

Kaia and Deyshawn are very toxic, but you'll fight for them to stay together. Only didn't give it 5 stars because I hate a cliff hanger ending!
