I understand that it's hard being an author but please end this Saga already or write longer books. Part 1 was interesting, Part 2 was really good, Part 3 seems forced. I am over it but trying yo be loyal.
ATP the cliffhangers and stress are wearing me thin but in the best way. Zuri is something else. I’m glad Tatti and Seem are good for…now until the other shoe drops. Deem, Ben, and Zuri gone fall out for sure. Nyla was really sad and felt bad as a friend I felt that. This series definitely draws you in and keeps you on your toes. Mallory it ain’t safe for you girl you gone be in danger. These plot twists and cliffhangers keep me coming back I’m so waiting number four already. Bonnie you’re a fool with that pen girl. Love it!! 10/10
When secrets are told and exposed. This was a messy good time and didn’t expect anything less from Queen. All the secrets are coming out little by little. What I loved was the vulnerability of the men in this book. First it was the moment with Zaire and Seem, then Seem and Tatti and lastly the POV moment for Namier. There is nothing wrong with being soft or vulnerable when needed.
I have to be honest; I didn’t know what to expect when Tatti secret was exposed. My guy has been nothing but honest with her from the beginning, to only learn she hasn’t. So, his feelings were valid. I am just glad he didn’t act off emotions like he wanted to at first. I was shocked about how he reacted once all was explained, not at all. Honestly got a little teary-eyed cause he just loved her, apologized and let her know what it was moving forward. Yeah that BDE energy and a real man. What woman wouldn’t get emotional if your man tells you, I am going to love as if she was mine. One thing for sure and two for certain, he is not playing when it comes to Tatti. Anyone can get it. Now this Mallory situation. Yeah, I am over her and she needs to be addressed correctly as she has been the ops since jump. Oh, but Zuri, yeah I don’t think she is going to be able to redeem herself once all is said and done. Kaseem and Kadeem know it’s something but unsure of what exactly but plan to find out and once they do. Yeah she nor Demon will be ready.
Tattiana, my girl you got me a little hot with you. Just a little though. Like he a good man Savannah – LOL… Though she came clean about the situation regarding Nariyah, she still hiding something and what she doesn’t understand is that secret is closer than she thinks. Now don’t get me wrong, I understand why she holds this last bit of information, however, where I am lost is why she is trying to protect Zuri secret. Yes, that’s Seem mother but what has she done to be protected. As for Mallory, I hope she plays bop it with her on site every time. Let’s not forget her auntie, uncle and her momma. First off, what mother would do what Tatti mother did. Then the trifling auntie and uncle who play with her feeling/fear for their own benefit. Yeah, I can’t wait for all of them to get that karma. Now for her and her father. I respect Seem more for making this happen as what girl doesn’t want their daddy regardless of age. The way Tatti was able to breathe clearly after the much-needed conversation with her father was everything to the daddy girl in me. Then the way Nyla acted when she was told Tatti secret. She was a little selfish to me and had selective hearing. I truly prayer it all works out.
Zaire is that guy to me. From book one, I have wanted more about him. Then when he was released and jumped right back to what he knew. Yeah I need more on him. It’s just something about him that has my attention. So yeah, I am here for all of it. One thing for sure is he is his brother’s keeper.
Bonnie just did her big one with this installment. The messiness in this read was a messy good time. The read touched on lies, secrets, betrayal, trust and love. The vulnerability of the men in this read was top tier. I love to see a man who doesn’t have an issue with expressing and showing his feelings. Oh but that ending though, yeah my jaw is still on the ground and I am still speechless. Next installment is not coming quick enough.
I love Bonnie Blanco and I loved this book, BUT I wish we could have 1 big book instead of multiple little ones. The books go to fast for me personally.
As far as the plot, this book is great! I do not like Zuri, she is too high and mighty for me. Tatti is a real one, but she has to stop thinking she can handle everything on her own. I am glad that she had that talk with her father, and he revealed that he knew about her daughter. Zaire needs to calm down and sit down! Enjoy freedom before being reckless again.
Okay, this is book three and the saga continues. Some of the details were expected and some just made me want to tell all of the characters to stay focused. For me, this is the end of the road. Enjoy the rest you all.
It’s a series I get it but it could have been wrapped up in book 3. The only new information was that Zuri sons found out about Demon being her son. We found that out at the end of the book.
Before I begin this is my review for the full series now.....Bonnie Blanco... I need you to come to the front immediately. 😂 Because when I say this series had me sitting on the edge of my seat, gasping, laughing, kicking my feet, and constantly saying, "Wait...WHAT?!" I mean every word. Every time I thought I had the characters figured out, Bonnie said, "Think again." The twists, the secrets, the family drama...this series kept me completely invested from beginning to end. Let's talk about Tatiana. At first, she came across as quiet, timid, and almost fragile. But baby...don't let that fool you. As the story progressed, she showed everyone she was much stronger than they gave her credit for. Watching her grow into herself was one of my favorite parts of the series. Then there's Kaseem. Whew. At first, I couldn't stand him. He came across as cold, emotionally unavailable, and honestly had me questioning everything. But the more layers Bonnie peeled back, the more I understood him. By the end, I had completely changed my mind about him, and I found myself rooting for him and Tatiana. Now let's talk about these family secrets... Book one had me intrigued, but once Tatiana's secret came to light, I knew I was locked in. Then book two came along...the drama somehow got even messier. Every time one secret was revealed, somebody else had another one waiting. I was genuinely shocked by some of these reveals, and I loved that I couldn't predict where the story was going. Now, Zuri...girl...we would've had to have a serious conversation. 😂 She tested every bit of my patience, but I will say Tatiana held her own and refused to back down, which made me respect her even more and don't even get me started on the parents. Just when I thought I understood who the real problem was, Bonnie flipped everything upside down with another family secret that had me staring at the page in disbelief. Some of those reveals were even bigger than I expected. By the time I reached book three, I was completely invested. The tension, the romance, the drama, and the way certain characters just refused to stay out of everybody's business had me laughing and shaking my head the entire time. And Mallory... friend... Why were you always showing up? 😂 Overall, this series gave me everything I love in a Black romance: family drama, emotional depth, character growth, unexpected twists, and a romance that was worth rooting for. Bonnie Blanco created a series that kept me entertained from beginning to end, and now I'm sitting here asking the only question that matters... Where is book four?!
There is no way I just saw “To be Continued” at the end of this book!! Lawddddd the stress , I can’t even deal! Kaseem and Tattiana are one of my favorite couples. I love that they both stand on business with each other. That aunt of hers is starting to PMO more and more. I wouldn’t be too upset if somebody handled her. I’m so proud of Tatti for telling her truth and getting the support she needs. Nyla and Namier are such a vibe and I’m really enjoying seeing their situation unfold. Zaire is handling business and I love that for him. Zuri, Zuri, Zuri smh I knew it was going to be something with her! She definitely wrote a check she can’t cash. It’s up now and I wanna see how she think she finna fast talk her way outta this one! Kadeem finna shut down everything!! I really enjoyed this book. I locked in from beginning to end and I can’t till the next part! 10/10 Highly recommend!!
Tatti I want to like you but you’re still hiding back! I’m surprised that he didn’t ask who the father of Nariyah was but why didn’t you just tell him?? I don’t like that when that man has been honest with you!
Zuri Carter- girl you got some big balls on you! Not you having an affair with his best friend, giving up the child, and not that child is the enemy of your family!
Nyla & River- y’all are come good friends! River and Zaire will be together soon. How sweet was it to name the baby after yall!
And that auntie was getting over on Tatti and the daddy! Daddy paying the mortgage while Tatti sending thousands per month!
Kaseem - you became a husband over night & you take it serious! You love that girl! Continue to love her until she feels completely safe!
As usual we start getting to the nitty gritty and boom! She drops the mic. We learned so much about everybody but at the same time, it's now opened an entire new line of questions. Because who set who up? Zuri bout to upset erybody and guess who'll get caught up in that fallout. Kadeem about to go awf!! Kaseem forgave Tatti but she's gonna be right back on the witness stand being interrogated because she still withheld a very big part of her testimony. Molly's playing more than the side piece. She should be tied of Tatti's hands fr fr. There's only so much a man of Kaseem's caliber will tolerate. I'ono if they'll survive. It ain't over. Plus Zaire ain't run into River yet! How much more are we going to suffer in these Forced Matrimony streets?
This book was absolutely UNHINGED in the best way possible. 😮💨🔥 Forced Matrimony With An Unhinged Menace 3 had me glued to my screen from the first page. Bonnie Lanco really said, "Peace? Never heard of her," and I ate up every second of it. The tension? Off the charts. The chemistry? Toxic, messy, addictive, and exactly what I signed up for. Every chapter had me thinking, "There's no way it can get crazier..." and then it somehow did. The emotional whiplash, the possessiveness, the obsession, the twists—I couldn't stop turning the pages. If you love dark romance with morally gray (or completely black) characters, arranged marriage chaos, obsessive antiheroes, and drama that never lets up, this one delivers. Just be sure to check the content warnings before diving in. Bonnie Lanco knows exactly how to keep readers hooked, and this installment did not disappoint. Five stars without hesitation! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #BookTok #DarkRomance #ArrangedMarriage #MorallyGray #ToxicRomance #KindleUnlimited #BonnieLanco #RomanceBooks #BookRecommendation #MustRead
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
Kaseem was frustrating at times, but his protective nature and growing feelings for Tattiana made him impossible to hate completely. Tattiana's strength, resilience, and refusal to simply accept her circumstances made her a heroine worth rooting for. Together, they created a love story that was far from perfect but impossible to ignore.
If you enjoy arranged marriage romances with obsessive heroes, strong heroines, family drama, danger, suspense, and plenty of toxic yet addictive chemistry, then this series is definitely worth adding to your TBR. Bonnie Blanco gave readers an emotional roller coaster full of chaos, passion, and unforgettable moments that will leave you ready for the next installment
I know a good series is hard to end but this booked could’ve ended with book 3. Overall good read. I didn’t like the hypocrisy going on. I didn’t like how Taiti was willing to love and forgive her husband but not her dad. They both played a part in the mess she is in. Her husband didn’t have to include her in his and the dad business. That was a choice. So equal treatment all around for me. Also it was kind of selfish for Taiti to want Mallory baby dead when she still keeping secrets herself about the child’s father. For the family to agree to kill the baby because of how it may look is absurd to me. Even though Mallory might not be pregnant it’s the principle kids should bE off limits.
What are you doing MS Bonnie you got me in a chokehold with this cliffhanger. Girl what you gonna do this is a bad situation. Zuri is a snake I knew that since book one all over Tatti but got something going on worse than she does. I love the Carter boys but Kaseem is my heart I love how he loves Tatti. I can't wait for part 4 to see what's going to happen how can they ever trust Demon as a brother when he tried to take his own brother out. And what in the world is Tatti gonna do when Kaseem finds out that Demon is her daughter father. OMG Ms Bonnie Blanco your pen game is ruthless you're number one in my book . Just let Kaseem love Tatti enough to accept what's going on and make it work with his wife . Now hopefully part 4 is on its way.
At this point, I don’t know if I can take any more secrets 😩😂 Every time I think I’m keeping up with this family and everybody attached to them… BOOM, something else comes out!
Zaire coming home was definitely a character we needed in this story. I love his personality and the way he handles business 👏🏾 He came in and added a whole different energy to the story.
We’re getting closer to the finale, and of course this book had to leave us with a cliffhanger 😭 There is just SO much to take in, but I’m fully invested and ready to see how all of this turns out because these secrets are wearing me OUT! 😂📖
The secrets are slowly starting to unfold!! Im going to be honest I’m irritated that some of secrets in book one are still the same secrets in book 4. Im irritated in a good way, the suspense and me wondering what’s going to happen next makes for a good book. I’m glad Tati finally told Kaseem the truth about her secrets but I can’t believe she’s still with holding another HUGE secret. How was dishonesty is she expecting Kaseem to put up with?? I’m wondering how Zuri plans to get herself out of this mess!! I can’t wait to Ms. Mallory to get hers because she ain’t shit!! I’m ready for book 4 like yesterday!!
Ms. Bonnie Blanco, you are killing me with these cliffhangers. I am so invested in the Carter family. Baby the drama is dramaring. These people got more going on than the law allows.
First Zuri, Miss Ma'am got some splaning to do. She got a whole son in these streets by her husband's best friend. Now how do you think her husband Kadeem is going to handle this. Then, her sons now know that Demon is their brother. Not only that, Tatti 's daughter is their niece and Kaseem 's stepdaughter. Just messy as hell.
I can't wait for book 4. Whew Chile, this series is good!!!!
These cliffhangers gone be the death of me 😩😂 BB gone keep us on our toes, waiting for more every time!
Zaire is home & already stirring the pot! I knew Mallory was going to say that! It’s always that excuse! Now what I didn’t think was she was in on the scheme that Demon set up! Smh. Whole time, the problem came from the most judgmental dysfunctional woman! Now I’m wondering if the triplets gonna stand against their mom or they gone accept their lost sibling… knowing KNZ they not going for it & rightfully so… Demon gonna feel gutted & want revenge.
Bonnie Bonnie Bonnie you in danger girl lol….. cause i know you lying with that cliffhanger 😩😩. Chile that damn Zuri is something else. My favorite couple just made up now their union may be at risk again. Ms.Author lady you stressing me out 😫 but ima stick beside ya because the pen game is lethal!!! On a serious note i really enjoyed book 3 it was a wild ride. My girl tatti confidence in her marriage is beautiful, especially after all these two been through in such a short time. The way kaseem loves and protects her is chef kiss. Their marriage is being tested now i hope they pass!!!
Bonnie sure does know how to snatch me up and not let go! Tattiana’s growth is my absolute favorite part of this book. I love how she wasn’t raised in the streets but she is so smart that it’s coming second nature to her. Once her & Kaseem started being openly honest with one another and stopped hiding secrets their relationship went to the next level. Once I got 120 pages in I KNEW she was gonna leave me hanging lol. But I’m always gonna read a Bonnie Blanco release because I know I’m gonna love what’s inside.
My nerves cant keep taking these cliffhangers Bonnie🥹 how you keep doing us like this? This was too good of an ending and it’s still too many secrets that need to be revealed. It is not gonna end with IV. Man, now I am going be up drawing conclusions…it will be wrong. These folks have a hard time accepting outside children. Zuni’s and Tatti’s. Zuri got 2 grands. Her daughter still don’t know and how her aunt gonna react when she het Nariyah? Plus auntie played Tati and Tyree. I am glad you got your stuff straight with Amazon. Not patiently waiting
That’s exactly what I needed even though I feel like Bonnie play with us. I love the man that Kaseem is to Tatti and that his is willing to take on everything she is going through. But I also understand who Zaire is and what he stands on. I’m ready for part 4 because MRS. ZURI CARTER has a lot of explaining to do only thing is I don’t want anything to fall apart with Kaseem and Tatti about her daughter’s father. It’s good but it’s about to get better!!
Talking about hiding and keeping secrets, wow! Mallory showing up with her BS, Mrs. Carter hiding a 20+ yeae old secret that is going to blow up and Tattiana carrying such a heavy burden! Oh and while I understood Nila's original reaction to the news, what's up with her. Zaire came home on literally demon time. Now this ending! Author Lady Bonnie Blanco, we need answers asap!!! Loving this series!!!
I was in a reading slump and picked up this series and I kind of wish I didn’t. I thought this was the final book because each story has been really short 160-180 pages but apparently there is a book 4. These books remind you of a repetitive day time soap opera. I didn’t finish (skipped to the end and saw the book was continued) but I may come back to it if I get into another bad reading slump.
The first book pulled me right in however the secrets and mess had me a bit irritated. It was a bit much, but more than ever Nyla behavior made me dislike her character totally. I don’t agree with telling someone else business especially the person she spilled it to… I will recommend the series but brace yourself for secrets, an overbearing in law and talkative friends 🙆🏽♀️
these cliffhangers are going to be the death of me!?! but all in all still good but honestly i’m tired of tati hiding stuff. she needs to tell that man immediately when she find stuff out and whatever rose she has to tell him personally. she’s genuinely irking me with that & im ready for this to be over lol. ZURI NEED TO GET IT
Now Bonnie!! Chile, there's a lot going on! I am happy that Tati and her father talked to clear the air. I knew I didn't like that Mallory wasn't ish! She's working with Demontae to set my boy up. Zaire is about to be a force to reckon with and I can't wait. Zuri, your husband is going to leave you. I wish Tati would have told Kaseem who her bd is. Ready for part 4.
BONNIE! I’ve been on this ride with you from book 1. I CANT TAKE ITTTTTTT! Just as I get some answers, 10 more things become unanswered. I’ll give you time to bake up pt 4, but we need it JUICY! Mrs. Zuri Carter? Oh baby she is SCANDALOUS! Absolutely despicable. That is it. That is all.
I just hope kaseem doesn’t get mad at tatti when he finds out his new brother is her baby daddy and she knew his mammie secret beforehand and poor Mallory getting caught up in demon bs and if she’s truly pregnant with demon child that means she done slept with her sister bd I can’t wait to see how this plays out
