12:01: A Delusional Enemies to Lovers Romance

by Bella Jay, Emmanuel Ingram (Narrator), Madison C. Marie (Narrator)

Picture Your fiancé cheats on you the night before your wedding with someone he claimed was his cousin. Then, just months later, he's at the altar with the same "cousin".

What would you do?

Crash their wedding and unleash chaos.
Accept an invite to attend a play party with his brother.
Get the ultimate "lick back" by having a fling with his brother at that very party.

For Tyme Henley, it's all of the above.

But things take an unexpected turn when Tyme finds herself falling for Midnight Drayton, the very person she's despised for a solid two years. As emotions and schemes collide, Tyme navigates a path filled with revenge, unexpected attraction, and a messy entanglement. Step into Tyme's shoes as she seeks to rewrite the narrative she once knew, exploring the thin line between vindication and unanticipated romance.

About the author

Miami bred, Bella Jay (born Precious Rodgers) has had a love for books since she was a little girl. Getting lost in them was a favorite past time but writing them has become a true love. In 2018, with a little push she stepped out on faith and released her first novel to the world allowing her writer alter ego, Bella Jay, to take flight into the writing industry.

She writes spicy & contemporary Black romance books with unapologetically flawed characters who she loves to fix.

When she’s not wrapped up in her characters, she can be found traveling the world, building her empire, sipping on tea or wine while reading a book, and wishing healthy eats were pancakes or cupcakes.

Who gives off BDE without saying it…Midnight Drayton 😝 This book was spicy, without being overly spicy. Be sure to read the content warnings before diving into this...

Tyme got the short-end of the straw so we thought, but baby she was the one who won in the end!! This was such a good story line, although MESSY AH, it was GOOD! I still want more…I at this book up. This book touched on relationships, loyalty, growth, character, love, appreciation, care, security and some more stuff! I appreciated it ALL.

This was my first book by this author and I must say, she got me🤞🏾 ...Now I need a sequel or something cause I enjoyed Midnight and Tyme's story!!

Narrators were ok...

Go ahead and 💳 that credit or add to your Libby Hold bucket NOWW!!

I spun the block for Midnight and Tyme and have zero regrets. The audiobook? Straight fire. Emmanuel showed out, and Bella Jay chose voices that understood the assignment. Every emotion landed exactly where it needed to. 🎧🔥

Tyme was hurt, loud, and unapologetic...and I respected every second of it. Midnight stepped up in a way that felt intentional and grown. Once he decided what he wanted, he moved like a man with purpose. That kind of energy will always do it for me.

Their chemistry stayed sharp, the tension stayed thick, and the love felt earned. Messy, passionate, and real all the way through.

Five stars.
Great narration.
Great chaos.
Even better love.
