This was a good ass read! Kareem fell for Arielle HARD! And I was here for it. It was funny cuz he didn't have to do that teacher like that. But also, he made it know how much he cared for Arielle and he would do anything for her. How he confessed his love to her was funny, but that just showed the reader that he truly never been in love before.
Overall, a great story! Only thing is that I wish we got the doctor appointment scene with Arielle finding out she had lupus. I would've loved to see how Kareem would handle it.
This was very fast-paced, so if you don't love instalove, this will not be for you. Kareem applied pressure from the second he came back into contact with Arielle, so she definitely didn't stand a chance trying to run from him. I really loved that they both didn't seem to fight their feelings too much. Yes, they were initially shocked by them, but after the initial shock, they leaned in; it was all gas, no brakes, very quick and cute.
The part " a word from kareem" had me hooked cause yes!!!!
She was going through it, and i dont blame her for not being a usual nice person cause it was rough times for her.
She was on vacation to try relax and forgot that good for nothing ex of hers, but that was easier said than done.
Cause he didnt make it easy especially with being away he didnt want let go only due to him not having a job ever I think we all been there and had a no job ex (sitting on their ass doing nothing)
Sloane, her bestie, loves her the way she rides or dies bestie and her hype woman, and most of all, she hates arielle ex .
Kareem's parents had giggled when they were on the phone with him . That man presence is something that just makes you wanna giggle as well cause he is all man.
Chapter 3 was 🔥🔥 especially when he asked who taught her suck dick like that I was loving that .
Snax had such a happy, positive attitude and always down for kareem .
I lost it with so much excitement when he said " my little mermaid "
I just genuinely loved that he knew what and who he wanted & wasn't scared to admit that.
Kareem was an ignorant somebody 🤣 I found myself giggling at a lot of his antics. He was bossy, a little bit of a bully, but oh so soft for his “Mermaid.” I liked that Arielle didn’t really fight him too much either. she just leaned into the crazy.
Kareem and his Mermaid had instant, undeniable chemistry, and their connection was fun to watch unfold. It was very instalove, so if you don’t like “I love you’s” after only 30 days, you probably won’t enjoy this one. There was a random plot point thrown into the very last chapter/epilogue that I think would have been interesting to explore more deeply in the main story rather than tacked on at the end.
But overall, this was a sweet romance about intense connection, attraction, and the idea that sometimes fate really does deliver you exactly who you’re meant to have.
I loved this insta-love story. It was cute, spicy, and funny. Kareem was brash and blunt and it actually turned Arielle on, plus she found him cute. He saw her and instantly found her attractive, interesting, and fine. Kareem and Arielle were perfect everything happened fast but right on time. The way the saw each other when they first met, the flirting, the BE and reciprocated energy was everything. To later find out they’d be closer to each than they could’ve ever imagined was the perfect surprise considering the feelings were there. They now had all the time in the world to act on them and realize they’d be all each other ever needed.
Kadeem is definitely Oscar the Grouch, but not with his Mermaid. He loves everything about Arielle and will burn the world down for and behind her. Don't you just love an unhinged bully.
Yep, bully because he bullied his way into her life. After their vacation fling, he couldn't get her off his mind and vice versa. As Snax said, look at God", and in walks Arielle the new tenant in Kareem's building. They both thought that they would never see each other again, but God had other plans.
Now ten years later, three kids, and they are still happily in love.
As always, Cyn does it again! 🤭 This was a quick read. So, boom! Both Kareem & Arielle (his little mermaid) 😉 get sent to the same resort to reset. She spots him acting a clown. He has no sense 😂 - Anyways, they have a quick one night stand. He’s pissed because she runs off and hides. 2 weeks later, fate steps in (Big Homie don’t ever miss) & she’s moving into an apartment building he owns. The rest is history. Kareem applies major pressure. Gives BDE. Ends with a HEA 💖
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
Kareem was an entire mess. Crashed at at every turn like an adult temper tantrum. It was funny because he was too old to be mad things didn't go his way all the time.
I enjoyed Arielle though. My girl was just laid back after she dropped that zero and got herself an unhinged man that spoiled and ate her down.
Welp it looks like in a 105 pages I got myself a new book bae. Kareem was everything he needed to be! He was rough to everyone on the outside but for his Mermaid he would do anything. I loved that they had an insta love. You packed a whole lot of story in just a few pages and I absolutely loved every word of it!
I adored this book🤗Kareem was off the chain but he found his anchor in Arielle🩵I too have lupus, have been on this lupus journey for 35 yrs. It is hard to diagnose, but glad Arielle came out on top 🙏🏾👊🏽great read!!! Kareem did not play bout his mermaid 🤭hilarious moments 🤭🤭
Short and paced perfectly. Very spicy but has a proper storline to follow. It made proper use of side characters not too fleshed out but they appeared enough to give you a sample of what type of people the MCs kept in their circle. Cyn rarely miss the mark.
Quick and straight to the point. Kareem was my kind of bully. Why he kicked that man off the elevator just because he felt like he was holding him up from telling His little mermaid he loved her? My type of timing lol. He was definitely a menace though. I enjoyed reading this. I would recommend.
I think you might like this book – "All You'll Ever Need" by Cyn.
He wouldn't want me to tell y'all this, but this was soft love!! And a great summer quick read!! Prepare to laugh and shake your head because he was a handful!
Very quick read and it was a page turner. It was a good reminder that when it’s meant to be you just know. The mermaid and her bully really were a match made in heaven.
I loved this couple. ARIELLE sure did tame the hot head KAREEM. They were what each other needed and I love the intensity of their chemistry. Such a fun read
Great short love story! Kareem and Arielle were truly meant to be together! There were some funny moments in this book as well! You won't be disappointed!
Kareem come on the scene showing out from jump. When I say had me cracking up and the fact that Arielle found his craziness funny. Had me laughing even more.
I love the warning or disclaimer in the beginning. It was just what I needed, although, this was one of those reads that you didn’t want to put down. I enjoyed it!
