Nothing really to the story it moves fast, as far as the relationships you don’t get why the couples should be together or why they’re so into one another, besides Jojo. Even his situation seems like he’s settling though because of his bm. With the way Lilly was acting she seems to be on the verge of trying to get back with her bd now that he seems to be wanting to settle down.
Benji comes off as confused and just wanting someone to be with. Leyanna started as the good girl but quickly turned into just a jumpoff willing to do whatever for some money. Kash had all the security and extra going on but was still making moves like a street kid and it seemed like he had no care in the world to find out who hit Flex. I’m pretty sure Jojo was at the end but I’d be surprised if he’s not.
It’s hard to keep saying it but I loved this book..... benji is my favorite biz he’s no joke, he protects his family and like me doesn’t allow ppl in easily, I’m happy he’s found Leanna she fits him like a glove. I finished but was sad I hope there’s a book 3 Happy reading
Ms. Jahquel is a kinda new author for me. I've read a few of her books but not many, however this book was very well done. I love the way Leyana was able to pull the love from Benji's damaged heart. The strength and maturity that both Chyna and Ley displayed was uplifting and a welcomed twist to see in this genre. The approach that she took regarding Kash's involvement with Chyna and Benji's mother's death, showed there are other alternatives that can be taken instead of automatic street justice. Jojo low key tucked me off with the way he chose to handle the revelation of Kash's involvement with their shared tragedy. He was unable to see past his own selfish need for revenge to ensure Chyna's happiness. I can't say it enough if you haven't read this book you most definitely will want to and I assure you, you will not be disappointed. I am IMPATIENTLY waiting for part 2. Please don't make us wait long Ms. J. Again excellent read!!!

Benji and jojo learns kash secret but on the strength of chyna they let it go but jojo isn't happy and to be continued.
This book was really good and I understand that what goes around comes around, but I'm so confused. There has to be a part two that will explain JoJo's determination to get Kash. If Benji can move past it then why couldn't JoJo??? Is he lo key in love with Chy??? #confused
I'm lovin' all the Hittas, Lol!!! From Kairo to Benji and even Jojo... I know what Kash did was wrong but it a reason why him and Chyna cross paths... The ending had me in my feelings but I really got a feeling that Jojo shot Kash, but I'm hoping I'm wrong... Ready for part 2 ASAP!!!
I hope Kash makes it? I'm wondering who done it? Glad Benji finally opened up his heart to Leyanna. Jojo and Lilly are still in love with each other. I can't wait until Benji and Jojo find out that it was Lilly's boyfriend who did that to Chyna.
I enjoyed the read however I wanted more from Benji's character. I also felt that there wasn't any suspense or shocking moment like I'm used to from an authoress of this caliber. Nonetheless., I'm ready for part 2
I wasn't feeling it at first but then I got into it and couldn't put it down. I'm excited about the next part. We knew what was gonna go down but who dunnit? I need to know and am looking for part 2 and hoping it's out now.
