I'm so glad the book went in the direction that it did! It was definitely a 5 star feast (lol)! I'm hoping to read more about Farah & The Fold. I also loved that the back story on how everyone got their was told.

Omg this book was fire the first page to last page. I figured out that Mooney was apart of The Fold that's how she was able to write that book for Cutie to read. Farrah is one chick you don't wanna mess with. The book cleared up a lot for me I don't wanna say to much because I don't wanna spoil it for anyone but baby when I tell you T. Styles is one bad chick when comes to telling a story. Baby she told the hell out of this story and then some for real for real. The ending I was like OMG. Just read it you won't be disappointed trust me definitely a banger you won't want it to end cause baby I didn't.

Very good follow-up to Redbone series that held me so captive I finished in a few hours. Good background info on characters with a great storyline that explained more about The Fold & their twisted rituals & problems. There was quite a bit of activity going on behind those gates....

Ummmm okay… so after everything, Slade really became a deadbeat dad? Sending money and visiting once a month Like, why would you leave your son for Farrah? What kind of shit is that?! The ending felt a little rushed too. Like, what happened? Was there supposed to be a Part 5? Lawd, I’m still pissed that Farrah is alive.
I’m not happy at all lol like damn I wanted Farrah and her siblings dead lol

Amazing
T. Styles has done it again. Great story. I would love to get background stories of each member of The Fold. This one was fire though. I would highly recommend this book.

Farah is back
Enjoyed what seems to be the finale. The reuniting of Farah and Slade. The Fold is a sick and twisted group. There is however a cliff hanger.

Is this the end
Ended kind of fast. Hoping more of Slade and Farah. Would like to see what happens with cutie did she join the fold or just followed Fatah.

Took me a few hours to read, i really didn’t want it to end. I don’t like Farrah Cotton being submissive, it’s not her style. I’m glad she finally bucked back and handled her shit like the bad bitch we know her to be. I wanted more of Shadow in this book, i love him. Does anybody know of and when the next one will be dropping?

Since being a fan from the first time I picked up a T. Styles book, she never disappoints me! This was a page turner leaving me in suspense at the end!! Great read!!

From start to finish The Fold delivers. Definitely a great chapter in the RedBone series. I hope this isn't the last we hear of Farrah, Slade, Cutie & The Fold.
