Sigh!
I’m so over Nicole Jackson. It’s the same old storyline, just different character names. Why is it always some low class, trashy female, who can’t find a job to save her life, needs a man to take care of her and has absolutely no respect for her body. I’m over it. She needs to come up with a new storyline, because I’m over reading the same tired one repeatedly. This will be my final Nicole Jackson novel!

I’m tired!
I chose to read this book on January 1, 2026. I had the day off and wanted to get in some light reading. This book was everything BUT light. Between Soriyah and Kylie, the back and forth, moving from one spot to another, and bringing in other people when they were clearly not done with each other, I’M TIRED!
This book was a great read!

Ohhhh baby this was a messyyyyy good time lol. All in all I still feel like i love Kyrie lol but I got my eyes on him lol cause there was a lot of unanswered for things he knew lol. He was just as crazy as all her ex’s lol

First thing that comes to mind….ANNOYING. If this was young ppl I would understand the stupidity but these ppl are in their 30 years just repeatedly doing dumb sh*t especially the main FMC. Her reactions were all over the place and honestly she didn’t learn anything smh.

If you like Messy and Toxic then this is the book for you!!!! If you want to like the characters then this isn’t the book for you lol. Soriyah not getting a job despite everything that was happening is crazy AF! Raw dogging smh basically a random woman while have 3 teenagers is extremely irresponsible and NASTY! Bringing the drama into your home with your children that just lost their Mama is insane! Soriyah was definitely playing games and keeping a roster of suckers! The auntie smh.. I guess trifling runs in the family! Kyrie sexing without protection at 35 years old is gross

A 4.7 Lmboo…
This was dogoneee messsssy and I lived for it 🤣.
Man the way all this drama unfolded had me sayinggg lord and shaking my head left to right. This book had me cackling from the audacity from some of these people. Kyrie and Soriyah were two peas in a pod obsessed more kyrie than ever and loved that for them. If they had just stop jumping off emotions and talked it out we wouldn’t be here lol so imma shut up about the journey cause I enjoyed it. Yall read and have a ball in this story like I did now for a reread 😭.

A messy good time
Laaawwwddd.. this was a messy good time.. Soriyah had been with Bubba for 5yrs and they were engaged.. he had convinced her to quit her job and he was taking care of her solely.. until he started staying out late and then didn’t come home until the morning.. she put him out after learning he had been cheating.. and once he left she no longer had a way/access to pay bills.. after being late on her rent, the “rent man” aka Kyrie offered her a “proposition” to clear her late balance.. what started off as a means to an end on Soriyah’s behalf ended up changing after her feelings got involved and pregnancy.. after a few misunderstandings she cut him off and went thru pregnancy leaning on another man Tune.. she basically plain his face and wasn’t into him like that, but tolerated the help during loneliness.. after Kyrie got into a bad car accident he was injured and needed help.. he bonded with his provider and her daughter.. however things went left when they all come over for the holiday and Kyrie was dating Karie, Soriyah’s auntie.. when I say messy, it’s super messy and intriguing all at once.. Kyrie loved him some Soriyah, but the lack of communication on both parties is why they were in the mess they were in.. but Kyrie finally was able to blend his girls with Soriyah and KJ.. I enjoyed

Review (No Spoilers)
This was my first time reading a book by Nicole Jackson, and I really enjoyed it. I ended up falling in love with Kyrie and Soriyah’s story. The characters felt well written, and their connection kept me invested from start to finish.
Even though this is a short read, it still packs in a lot of drama, which kept things interesting. Soriyah came across as a bit immature at times, which added tension to the story, while Kyrie was clearly bottled up and holding back important details about his life. That mix made their relationship feel layered and emotional.
Overall, this was an awesome read and a strong introduction to this author for me.

Abrupt Ending…
This book was…interesting, and honestly, I’m still not sure if that’s a good thing or a bad thing.
Soriyah literally started an “exchange” with her landlord because she couldn’t afford rent after breaking things off with Bubba, because she needed a job. But literally never got one the entire book. I also didn’t see much, if any, character growth. Instead, she just bounced from one man to the next, pregnant, had a baby and pregnant again with Kyrie.
Kyrie was an okay MMC. He was already dealing with a lot while raising his children, and then he brought Soriyah in. The drama in this book was anticlimactic and never really resolved. I wanted to like their relationship, but it just felt juvenile how they both moved.
Overall, I felt like this book had potential, but it just missed the mark. The ending was especially disappointing and felt rushed, and ended incredibly abrupt.

So, so good!
Chile, that was a lot! I lived this story so, so , so much. Ot was hella entertaining, funny, crazy, and very realistic. Soyriah (probably spelled that real wrong) played way too many games, which eventually caught up with her in the end. Kyrie should have been up front from the beginning. If they would have done a better job of communicating with each other instead of just f’ing, a lot of heartache could have been avoided.
What else… Bubba was trash. Tune was beyond trash. And Kari was on one for real!
In terms of 🥵, this book had 🔥 and then some! I was like, ok Kyrie!!!

Loved it
Babyyyyyyyyyyyy this was one drama filled read but I loved every minute of it. That darn Kari was delusional at the end and it was sad how she really stopped talking to her niece because she really thought she had a chance with Kyrie. Bubba was so wrong for how he did Soriyah but it was a blessing in disguise because she met and fell for Kyrie. That Tune was a real character but Kyrie showed him not to mess with what's his. I loved all the drama in this read it had me tuned in from the beginning.

Girl…
Soriyah got me tight!!! Cause how!? Why!? Every time she made a decision I was looking for the other shoe to drop. Kyrie could have done a better job with his communication and the fact that he was moving weird sent me many a time. All them other characters were just that. Makes you wonder if Kari knew that Kyrie was Soriyah man all along. Weirdos.
The story was wild at times cause that city was toooooo small!

not the auntie!!!
Chile this was definitely a page turner that I couldn’t put down. He was plotting on my girl from the beginning. I’m glad she got her happy ending but I wouldn’t be mad if the author brought them back and gave a little more detail on how the auntie and baby girl are doing. I was a little conflicted because they like family family BUT the auntie was on borrowed time rather she wanted to accept it or not.
Great Book

Messy Messy Messy
You can never go wrong with a Nicole Jackson book. However, I wanted a little more on Kyrie and what he was into exactly.. I need to know when and why he pulled up on Bubba, also need to know how he knew Bubba’s side piece.. and what happened to Tune… maybe a part two of this story bc I’m sure Kari isn’t done being a psycho

I think I will always say this about Nicole- she writes "hood realism" with good humor mixed in.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book and would definitely recommend.
If you don't like mess, drama, and dumb decisions- this may not be the read for you...
The emotions and frustrations we get with these characters.... top tier writing for me!

This is my second read by Nicole Jackson so I’m not sure what to expect just yet! I will say I read this book in one sitting, and this is my type of carrying on! Something about Kyrie got my left eye twitching! There’s more to his story that wasn’t told or hasn’t been told yet….I ‘m not one that believes in coincidences and it was too many for me I mean we know he was obsessed with Soriyah but it’s deeper than that! This was overall a good read tho!

good messy story
I don’t think there needs to be a part two to this. I see a lot of reviews saying they’re waiting for part two. This could’ve easily been completed in a part one. I really hope he hasn’t been messed around with Kari, but it ended somewhat OK a little open in it but a good story nonetheless.

Abrupt Ending
The story was decent. The plot twist was a bit much. I also want more details about certain parts the story. The spicy scene were definitely good. The ending was too abrupt and makes me wonder if I should be expecting a part two. If there is a part two it isn’t needed honestly.

I never write reviews but this book is traumatic and I need to remind myself why I gave it this rating . It was an insight into the foolish decisions people make in real life and the foolishness with health and wellness that is rampant currently because wdym he is talking you into intimacy before 6 weeks??? And other warped and flawed logic

This was alot
Mannn you be taking me through it with these stories I swear. I love it. This one though was really good read. I mean even though your FMC was PMO cause if a woman answers the phone and you know your man got 3 teenage daughters you think the worst first. That whole thing was her fault. She didnt even try. Im glad there was a HEA but man.

This is exactly why you should never quit yo job for a man, but what cousin Ebony of Playerz Club say? “You gots to use what you got to get what you want”? Well the Rent Man definitely wants what our FMC has and is willing to give her what she wants 😂.
This was messy, and spicy, and toxic and I loved every single moment of it.

If sexy and crazy were a person it would both soriya & Kyrie
Entertaining and illogical but a fun ride. Dysfunctional af and that’s just how NJ loves to write her characters. I enjoyed every word and each page. Soriya and Kyrie were a match made in hell, lol!

She knows she can write the hell out of a book! I loved how this was like a don’t judge a book by its cover type of character. He was most definitely toxic but I wouldn’t have came off him either!

deserves 5 stars
Really good read. Definitely waiting on number 2. The damn kyrie had me a lil scared how much he watched soriya even when they wasn’t together. And I’m curious to know what bubba was talking about at the end of the story.

This is the first time reading this author book, and loved it. The characters were well written and the MMC and FMC I truly fell in love with their story. A awesome read all in all.
