Chokehold
Tierra Howard was the woman who had it a thriving business, a picture-perfect marriage, and a future she thought was secure. Until the night she was nearly killed in a mysterious hit-and-run that left her broken—body and soul. As she claws her way back to life, she discovers that the real danger isn’t over.
Enter Truth Graves. A massage therapist with healing hands, a commanding presence, and a past darker than the ink on his skin. His touch is clinical yet addictive. What begins as therapy sparks a forbidden pull neither can ignore… and soon, his identical twin, Trey—a reckless, magnetic force of nature—steps into her world too.
Truth is steady while Trey is untamed. Together, they see through her pain, push past her walls, and unravel her in ways she’s never known. But passion isn’t her only problem.
Her ex-husband, Julian, isn’t done with her. Behind his perfect façade is a man desperate for control, with deadly secrets, an obsessive assistant willing to kill for him, and ties to the very hit-and-run that almost ended Tierra’s life.
As obsession turns dangerous and betrayal stacks high, Tierra must navigate her feelings for two men bound by loyalty and blood while reclaiming her power in a world determined to break her.
In a game of desire, deception, and survival, Tierra will either walk away stronger than ever…
Or lose herself in the hands of the only men who ever made her feel alive.

TWINS 😜😏 okay .
Truth he’s calm, cool and collected… Trey this man is a beast in all the good and bad ways might I add bringing a woman that they both have eyes for lol that’s diabolical. All I can say is Ti is one hell of a lucky woman.
This book literally had me in a chokehold I couldn’t put it down. Unless I fell asleep lol. But no this book was everything I could ask for it’s the black characters for me and the spiciness baby I was jealous wishing it was me and not her okay lol. Then the action and plot twist … to die for. This is my first read from Ms. Stone but I’ll definitely say it’s not my last. I’m so looking forward to more of her work just fantastic ❤️

Quote: “God, please let me make it through this massage without moaning out loud or embarrassing myself. But if I do….maybe that’s part of the therapy too.”
New author alert for me and I can tell you I was not disappointed at all with this read. This author Thommie Stone popped up on my radar and I can’t wait to read more of her work.DISCLAIMER: 95% of the things I read have a trigger warning/Spice and I love it. Protect your peace and mental health at all cost!!!
Like all of my reviews, I won’t spoil it for you, but this is the thrilling story of our FMC Tierra who has it all, but is in need of some overall healing. She strives to recover in a wellness center run by our twin MMC’s.(Yessss I said twin MMC’s😂) Our MMC’s Truth and Trey are used to sharing everything in their personal lives and business, but when they meet Tierra, their lives change drastically. Although they are twins, they have completely different personalities and I loved it. Truth is the calm in the storm and Trey is Trey 😂There is so much chemistry and trust built up between Truth and Tierra as they work together and things get hotter once Trey enters the chat….but will her husband get in the way? Will other love interest emerge? Will Tierra get her HEA? Will Trey change his ways? Will Truth listen to the angel or devil on his shoulder? You will have to read and find out.
The plot is so strongly written and definitely keeps you on your toes. I literally found myself holding my breath for dear life. This book gives just as much plot as it does spice and this is a spicy one (Erotic) just like I like it! Every turn, I was noting in my journal the plot thickens and laughing at the characters personalities and banter. Thommie Stone excels in her descriptive imagery and I can tell she did the research to make this “healing journey” realistic and personal. The only thing for me that kept this from being a 5 star read, was in my coherence and pace rating. Although I loved the pace, in the beginnng, Trey didn’t have enough character development to make me feel like him being a third in the relationship was natural and genuine. I kept thinking to myself, maybe he should have stalked her on his own to build that connection or just connection outside of Truth. This did resolve itself by the end of the book which is a win!
You will love this book if you love, plot,erotic spice, MFM, and of course this genre.IYKYK! Again, check your trigger warnings. Happy reading!
Rating:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (based on my own delu lu scale)
Spice:🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️.5(based on my own delu lu scale)

My oh my!
I absolutely LOVED this book! I love how Ti fought back and stood up for herself regardless of how much she was pushed down. She fought for her respect, love, and dignity. The twins is definitely a force to be reckoned with but in the best way! I loved this book and I can’t wait until the next book is released.

This book was everything 10000/10 I will always give to this book. She came with the spice in here lol is it twins? Is it one man she is thinking about but two different personalities lol? Read it to find out because baby it’s everything the cover is giving lol. My top favorite read of this month. I read it so slow because i didn’t want it to end lol but Ms.Thommie you did your big one and thank you for writing this for us because baby you came with your A game for sure. I can’t wait to read about the younger twins lol i know they on Demon time.

decent read
I think the story was nice, and the spice was *chef’s kiss* the POV switches were a little confusing some parts were repetitive, but them twins??????? I need me something like that 🥰 I usually would go for Truth’s calming demeanor, but Trey’s savage self had my heart
