Bury My Heart: A Disrespectful Love Affair

Rate this book
“Faithful is the man who gives everything” This serves true for Halo Raynes who gave everything up to make his wife happy. The day she left and told him that it was her or the streets, he knew what he had to do. Now years later Halo is a faithful man with his sights on one woman, his wife, Jurnee Raynes, that is until he meets Rae. Will he be able to keep up the good boy routine?
Jurnee Raynes is still living in the past. She doesn’t think men can change, so there is no way that her husband Halo would be able to stay faithful to her, especially being the owner of a prestigious gentleman’s club. She finds retribution in the arms of other men but when she enters into forbidden territory, things get a little sticky. Can she make her way out of the murky waters or will life come crumbling down around her?
Rae has been in a horrible relationship with Red for over three years. During those three years she was abused verbally and physically, until one night she had enough. Fleeing to Atlanta and right into the arms of Halo Raynes, Rae finally feels safe and secure. When a jealous wife and a revengeful ex come storming through will she be able to survive the madness?
Angel Raynes is a natural playboy, he refuses to settle down until he finds the right woman. When Ari enters his life she sparks things in him that he never felt but there is only one problem, a one night stand that refuses to go away. Will Ari be able to survive his drama?
Take a ride with these couples as they battle love, lies and disrespect, nothing with them is off limits and at the end of it all you may just have to Bury My Heart.

Good read

This was a good read, definitely points points for it being a standalone. No way both girls thought Rae was lying on that man like that. I wish we could've gotten more of them with their families. I actually understood jurnee. She just should've verified of he changed or not before she wild out. I understood Halo a bit more when he explained that he told her what it was, and yea he definitely shouldn't have gotten married. There was definitely a double standard because if he felt he did no wrong, then why were you apologizing? He talking about all the men she had when I'm sure he had just as many women if not more, but at the end he was never in love with her which is why he continued to do him in the first place. I did not like Joy's mental health being discussed as if it was an excuse but it was a reason. An excuse is used to blame or justify and a reason is used to explain why this happened. No one said it was right nor ok but proving a reason is supposed to help people understand better. It was truly sad because mental health truly seems to be on an all time rise and when so many people having the mindset of Angle and Ari then I feel it will be a long time before we make the strides to truly get a handle on this. I'm trynna figure out how the men presented the office job as better than dancing. I get not taking clothes off but that's what they do and we're already use to it. I don't believe 2 dancers that weren't new chose 2k a week over 2k a night minimum 3 nights a week. I liked all main 4 characters , really wish I could've seen them years from now with their families.

Loved it

I really enjoyed this story. Rae went through a lot. I'm glad she found Halo so she can know what a man's love was. Angel was a mess and I loved him too. I'm glad Ari came into his life. Females like Asha and Candy are truly low self-esteem individuals. Although Candy had past trama, as an adult she could have seemed help but glad she was learning that with the help of G. Now I'm bothered it took Angel so long do deal with Joy, knowing she killed an innocent person and yet he continued to let her slide. Now poor Jurnee had a few screws loose as well. She choose to sleep with her husband best friend and enjoyed I. She deserved to be in prison.

Great Read

Halo and Angel went through some crazy things in life until two gorgeous women walked into their lives. Halo was trying to keep his marriage straight at the time, but his wife, Jurnee, was doing everything but being a faithful wife. Rae and Ari didn't even know one another when they went in to audition for their jobs. They became close and got totally different jobs. Candy allowed her jealousy to take over and harm people. Everyone is this book had nothing but drama, but it was handled accordingly. Love was found organically. Awesome read!

All the snakes are hissing!!

A story full of delusional, psychotic women. Are escaped abusive BY Red and headed to Atlanta and met her future, Halo, but he has own issues. Angel caught up in a fatal attraction situation, that can only end badly. Can't wait for Karma to come a visiting Jurnee, Banks and Candice!!

That Joy was a certified nut case. I'm loving Rae and Ari. Candice is grimey and just evil. I'm sure Journee is feeling super stupid. Her and Buck deserve each other. #teamHalo #teamAngel

That’s a good title for a part 2 about the kids. I’m glad the guys got some good ladies in their life and they got rid of all the bad people that’s was holding them back.

Banger alert

Nikki does it as usual! That cliffhanger has me feeling petty and I need part 2! Joy is certifiable and needs to get taken out torture style.. I suspect journee gonna be a bitter scorned ex in part 2... Nikki never disappoints me and her books are book crack!

Halo!!!

I loved me some Halo he was a straight forward sexy about his business man! His attitude and his caring! I loved him & Rae together. And the love scenes were hot. His brother Angel was sexy and had his back and him and Ari were so cute together. Loved these two couples together.

OMG JUST AWESOME! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Must read that dang Joy was crazy, her momma should have left her where she needed to be. Jurnee was a whore and made no excuses about it. Ari and Rae was the girls didn't take nothing from anyone. Candice needs to seek help she don't think of anyone but herself. As always Nikki did that!! Pen game is 💣💣💣

Snakes

Snakes was just coming out of wood work's. I don't know who was dumbest Jurnee, Joy or Asha? Halo and Angel found real Love when Rae and Ari walked through them doors. I don't think Candice deserved a happy ending!!!!
