I pretty much read every book that Natavia has written and she keeps getting greater and greater at what she does. I tell you Mekayla and Tabor have really been through some thing but one thing I can say is that love conquers all. I may be wrong but I dont care Ryshawn, Melody, and Mulan got what they deserved, you could never play with this thing called KARMA. I'm also excited to read about Ronnie and Joshua story cause the lil sneak peek that I got I was all in. Overall great read cause I enjoyed every last page.

Clutching my pearls!!!!
I don't expect anything other than greatness when it comes to this author. Not only did she shed light on previous characters from prior installments, but she connected everyone flawlessly in this book. I was soooo happy to witness Tabor & Kayla growth and that Mulan was definitely a character to remember. With the way this story unfolded, I found myself anticipating the next page. Drama, drama and more drama; all in which relationships experience everyday. Kudos to you Natavia!

I loved the fact that it was a standalone and part of other books. I love reading a book about people as a full story and it connects to other characters from other books. If gives every character a part of a full life story where you feel apart of their lives. I can't wait until Trust : I can't fall in live again comes out. Hopefully soon.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️they don't offer enough stars for this read!
When I tell you Natavia is the SHIT! She writes the best books! This is a great read! Not only did she tell you the love story of MeKayla and Tabor, she incorporated other characters from her other books. I loved the growth of MeKayla and how she went from the young church girl to the woman that didn't take shut from Tabor. I loved the aunt Qualene...baby she told him that his moms had a "strong face". I absolutely loved this book and you will too!

You don’t get much out of this one because if you followed along with the other series you pretty much had most of the story. Other than that it’s a good read to catch up with the characters but I wished it would’ve pushed the other series further along so we could have something to look forward to. Not sure how much of Joshua’s story will be entertaining because it just doesn’t seem like much can come out of what she’s up to without her letting out what she really does.

Very good story. I liked Tabor and Mekayla together. They had to go through a lot to fight for their love.

Good Read
I enjoyed this love story between Kayla and Tabor. The relationship between these two was steamy, chaotic, endearing and sincere. Labor was a screw up but even with all the dirt, his love for Kayla was always strong. I did get tired of his cheating way and even was afraid that that relationship with Milan was going to ruin things for him and Kayla. I wanted Kayla to put her foot down with Tabor sooner than she did. I also hated how she kept getting involved with people whose sole purpose was to use her. I hated Milan and was happy when she finally got caught up in her mess. I was all in with the sex scenes although after a while they seemed repetitive. If you want love, betrayal, sex and mayhem, this story will deliver. Good job Natavia.

Delivered as always!
Tabor & Kayla went thru so much I’m glad they finallyyyyy got it together because Kayla just couldn’t catch a break with the dudes she was messing with. I mean every dude she ran into it was a issue. And karma came for all the mean girls and I loved it. Mulan deserves everything she got and like Brock told her she just didn’t play the game right (He got her ass good). I’m happy Kayla & Shia are best friends again it wasn’t their fault what life threw in between their friendship. And that Qualene I like her she reminds me every bit of Geraldine without the dropping on the floor lol. Great story.

Good Story
I enjoyed the story line. I loved the characters. Overall, these books definitely held my interest. The only negative feedback I have are the grammatical errors. I realize that the language used is that of urban colloquialism, but there are quite a few grammatical errors despite that fact. But, that doesn’t deter me from reading and enjoying the novels because they’re entertaining. I also love that most of the female characters are not described as the “ideal” body type. I like that these are realistic sized, African American women that many of us can relate to! Great Job Natavia!!

This story was beyond good....
Where do I start I just didn't wanna stop reading until the end....Natavia always delivers and this book had me laughing and all in my feelings. I was so glad the way things worked out for Mulan she was truly something else. Kayla and Tabor rally deserve each other and was thrilled to see things work out for them. This book was well written and I recommend to anyone looking for a great story.

Lots of drama but you can't put it down!
Mekayla just wanted to be loved and Tabor just needed to protect and provide. This was a strange and chaotic love story. I almost lost my lunch when Mekayla lied to Tahoe about her basic existence. She put his freedom in jeopardy all because she was sheltered and desired a man to make her come alive! I cringed because I actually was rooting for them. This book kept my interest and made me laugh a lot.

Banga
Natavia has once again dropped fye with her witty and romantic pen game! Tabor took Kayla through so much drama and for the life of me I still don't understand what made him be with Manlan (Mulan). I'm glad karma cane back full force for her, Jay, Melody and Ryshawn, they were heartless. I can't wait to see what Joshua and Ronnie story entails!

Well Damn!
Just when you thought it couldn't get any better Natavia goes and proves us wrong. Tabor and Kayala fit right in with Corey and the rest of the crazy family. I kind of felt bad for Mulan she went through a lot and Jay was a different kind of monster all together. I can't wait to see what Joshua has up her sleeve for Mr. River aka Ronnie.

Wow
This whole series was Everything! I loved the characters. I laughed so much that it was ridiculous. The sex scenes were quite steamy.. but most of all I loved the family and friends relationship. The characters were so easy to connect with. I loved every book in this series from start to finish. Natavia is a very talented writer. This was an excellent series!

I’m so loving this series!!
Love everything about this series from the characters to the pace and flow.
Kayla and Tabor finally got their HEA!! Mulch thought she had everything under control, but her actions led to a visit from Karma and it wasn’t pretty. This is a series that I would definitely recommend and read again in the future!

When ratchets want to be wives...
These hussies have taken the cake. How are you using men for you come up? The love of money is the root of all evil and these tramps are beyond evil. Qualene was my Geraldine in this book and I love it. I have finally finished all of Natavia's catalog.

June 18, 2021I just don't know what to say about this book.
Each book in this series got better and better. I enjoyed all of the characters. The story line was good. Some of the women wasn't worth two cents. That Geraldine remained the same and I loved her. I loved Kay and Shai's growth. There was murder, jealousy and family ties. Good book/series.

What's understood don't need to be said!
This series was IT!!! Every single person played their part! The perfect movie! Romance, comedy, scandal, drama, mystery and the best part was all the BLACK MAGIC! Natavia has a new fan in me! This series could have used a better quality of editing, but it didn't overshadow the story! Looking forward to book 6!

Liked the story but
I liked this story but I had to put it down for a little while. The mistakes they made were not sensible. I had to remind myself that these were just kids but Tabor was old enough and should have known better. Overall it was a pretty good story!

That was so good I really enjoyed it. First I can't believe Kayla lied about her age and for her grandmother to treat her the way she did was terrible. I'm so glad she gave Tabor another chance to right his wrongs and got rid of that heifer Mulan.
