Ma'am! The way book one ended, I just knew I was in for some high drama. Kidnapping, ransom, high speed chase, or the like. So, I was a bit disappointed when that issue was resolved so quickly. 🥹

Poor Crimson was again suffering. This time from the trauma she just endured. But Jahsir was right by her side and would do whatever was necessary to help her heal. However, the drama wasn't over.

There are some master manipulators in Mulholland Falls for real, for real! 😤 I was happy to learn that Rashad was not as grimy as he appeared in book one. Just got caught up. 🤷🏿‍♀️ But that damn Venus is a greedy, selfish, hatin' ass bih!! 🤬 Just doin' all this ish for what? Money, attention? None of these men cared about nothing other than what you could do for them! Then to find out her connection to Que, and that scene in the coffee shop!! 😤🤬🤯 I was ready for Crim to tag me in, cause sis needed to get GOT after that!! 🤬😤

Here we go again.... I wasn't sure if Crim would make it this time, as she was so heartbroken. Then Ramsey for the save? 👀 Sure didn't see that coming, but I ain't mad at it! 😂 Hope there is more to come, as it feels like we are just getting started. 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿

yesss Jah!

This was the finale I needed! Everything was wrapped up perfectly, and everyone who needed to be touched was! I was on edge the entire time, but I knew Daddy Jah had to do what needed to be done… still, whew, my chest was aching! Even though Red was slightly losing it, she held on strong. I was BEYOND happy when Rashad finally clipped that dead weight! Now I can’t help but wonder… will we be getting a story with Rashad and Zahara? Because there is definitely something there!

Loved it!

Yes, yes, and yes! I loved book 2 as much as I loved book one! It kept my heart and mind full. I read it nonstop, and now I'm sitting here wishing it never came to an end. Great series!

Emotional

I love the conclusion. It was emotional. I was on the edge of my seat throughout the whole book.
I am happy that Jah and Crimson were able to get their happy ever after. He made sure that his woman and baby love, protect, mentally, and physically.

The ending!!

I was so excited for this sequel! Crimson and Jasir were made for each other. Watching them make their relationship work through her PTSD and the constant attacks from people that were set on destroying them was worth the read. The ending tried in so beautifully. Loved it.

Reflection

Therapy can provide you with tools and techniques that will have you looking at those around you that brings chaos as why are you breathing the same air as I.

We may not witness grimy people’s heartache or pain however karma will be dealt when least expected.
