This book was really good. I love Xyla and Taej and was hoping that they would get it together. I can't stand Xyla and was happy to see that she overcame everything. I can't wait for part 2 because that ending left mouth open I did not see that happening.

Just plain STUBBORN!!!!!
Both Xyla and Taej were too stubborn and now with more secrets I’m not sure if they can recover. Isys you can’t really be mad at her actions because hurt people hurt people....

Awesome
Kyoshi great job this book was the bomb.I really enjoyed this book. Read this book straight through nonstop. The author did a great job with these characters this was a teenage relationship that turned into love with a lot of natural setbacks. I felt a connection with all of the characters. Xyla and Taej were my favorite. I can't wait for part 2. Purchase this book and you will not be disappointed.

Loved it!!!
This book was heart touching to say the least.. Xyla was a brave and strong girl to endure all that mess and not give up.. I am enjoying the story of their lives and can't wait to read part 2... I felt like I could really identify with some of their issues and situations...

Good Book
I really enjoyed reading Xyla story. I am glad this was not your typical hood book. Don't get me wrong I love reading hood stories. After everything Xyla been through I am glad she did something with her life. I wanted her and Taej to work things out. Could not believe the shocker at the end of the book. Can't wait to read pt 2 when it comes out.

Oh my goodness what an excellent read! This writer encompasses all factors of reality in this book! Although some may say that Xyla's story only happens in story books but the reality is that it does happen! So enjoy
