Finding My Rib: A Complicated Love Story
“God made the woman from the man’s rib. Not from his head… that he should command her. Not from his feet… that he should walk upon her. But, rather from his side… to be his partner in life. From under his arm… to be protected by him. And from near his heart… to be loved by him.”
~Matthew Henry
Nassir “Nas” Braxton was a man who never believed in love until he ran into his fiancé, Ciara. Ciara was everything he thought he wanted in a woman. That was until one random night when he wanted to surprise her, but he was the one that got the surprise of his life.
Jamecca “Mecca” Douglas was more than ready to go home and spend her anniversary with her husband, Alonzo, of seven years, by spending a little quality time together. Alonzo on the other hand, thought they should celebrate their anniversary by doing something they’ve never done before causing Jamecca to feel violated in the worse way.
Alonzo’s ploy to get Jamecca to step outside the box and try something new left him in a position that he never thought he would be in. The hurt that he had given to her over the years was coming back to bite him in more ways than one.
Ciara is remorseful for what she did to betray Nassir, but nothing she does is good enough to make him want to hear her out. When Nassir stopped taking care of her, everything that she’d worked so hard to build began to crumble before her very eyes.
Although in denial to others, deep down, Nassir desperately wanted love, but the heartbreak he received from Ciara put a lock on his heart. An attraction to Jamecca causes him to want to explore what could be, until his father forbids him from going any further with her. Will Jamecca turn out to be the rib that Nassir is missing? Will Ciara be able to redeem herself and stop karma from kicking her while she’s down? Will Alonzo get what he deserves once his devilish ways start to catch up with him?
Find out if love is as complicated as Nassir believes while he searches to find his rib…

Complicated is right
I like the tangle web that you have in this book. Now Ciara is worst than Karlie Red off love and hip hop. Her butt is thotting and through the book. Now Mecca and Nas seems like they can be that IT couple of they just let go of their baggage. Overall good read.

Well damn.. lol since there does not seem to be a part 2. I had to draw my own conclusion and it was good lol
And I hope this is not offensive or disrespectful in any way to the author and if it is I will immediately take it down.. but my thoughts for part two would be
Zo and Ciara die. Mecca was admitted for extreme, stress, dehydration, and mineral deficiency.
Nasir not all that sad about Ciara’s passing left the hospital.
Nasir’s mom sitting at home with his dad’s unalived body. Nasir goes to check on her after that conversation they had and find him gone and her a mess. She tells him she found that’s Ciara’s baby could have been his father’s and that was the final straw so she took care of him. The mom also revealed that Presto is her best friend’s kid from back in the day and the father got her pregnant and that he is actually his brother and not his friend. She also found out that the dad was trying to leave the company to him and Presto knew about it. That’s why he pushed Nasir to mess with Mecca so he could snitch.
Nasir went back home like it was all good and took Presto out.
Nasir went back to the hospital to visit Mecca and they both shared there stories and began to fall for one another
😂😂😂

Wow!!!
What a tangled web that has been weaved. Alonzo and Jamecca are married but seperated because he was abusive and tried to get her to have a threesome with his sde chic Natalie who he neat to death for talking back to him. Nassir and Ciara were engaged until he caught her cheating with Alonzo. Ciara is pregnant by Alonzo, Nassir, or Nassir's dad which Nassir don't know she was sleeping with his dad. While Alonzo was trying to skip town not to be questioned about Valerie's homicide, he ran a red light and was struck by two cars which one of them ended up being Ciara's car. They both are life flighted to the hospital where Nassir and Jamecca, who are attracted to one another but was forbade by his dad to persue each other because of their business relationship, runs into each other. It's about to go down and I can't wait read the next book.
