Wise

Rate this book
Fresh out of the Feds, Liam slowly readjusts to life as a free man. At 32-years-old, he’s the most eligible bachelor around. However, after his very first encounter with the brazen beauty, Wise, he second guesses his status. Wise, whose name suits her very well, is a 24-year-old temptress with ambition. She’s the most self-assertive and independent youngster that Liam has ever come across -not to mention her beauty. It is those very attributes that leads him on the hunt for her heart. After months of the cat and mouse routine, Liam finally sinks his teeth into his prey. Unfortunately, Wise’s career choice submits a possible hindrance to their union. The ex-drug Lord is apprehensive of the dangers her occupation holds, and advises of her swift departure from her budding operation. Stubborn and bull-headed, Wise rebels, but at a hefty cost. Will Wise wise up and end her reign over the streets of Memphis, TN, or will her exit be administered a little too late?

This is A Cliffhanger

This was ok….a little far fetched ….I did enjoy the relationship between Liam and his Lola…that was definitely and genuine & loving relationship….the slow development of the relationship between Liam & Wise was also cool…but, the story in general was just ok to me. Where’s the Editor and/or the Beta Readers?

OMG!!

I loved this book from the very first page. Liam is my new book bae. I would have loved to be Wise. She had a good thing and didn't appreciate it. I can't believe that Ashley did what she did at the end. I was surprised about Christian. I am so ready for part 2. I need to know if Liam will be able to save Wise. This is a must read.

Awesome book

It's so good that i can't wait for the next install. Wise should have wised the hell up when Liam told her to. A hard head makes a soft ass anyway. She was a little too late to come clean now he has to help her out of it but not until he deals with Elise ass. Saucy read i love it.

I read this book so fast !! Everything caught my eye. I was glad that wise knew what she wanted and got out of her own way to let love in. Now this juicy drama I just discovered I really can’t wait for the next one. A good read , certified page turner, so glad I picked up this read.

Wise

Ok so it started off slow and I was just reading to finish.. but towards the end it just kicked into high gear. So I’m all in now. I’m hoping that part 2 doesn’t disappoint. I love me son Liam tho. And Wise is cool.. let’s see where this goes

Good read

This book was really good but it did have A LOT of grammatical errors in it. Sometimes I had to decipher what she was trying to say, so I guess it needs to be proof read before publishing but it was good nonetheless

Great read 💯

I enjoy reading this book. I love the twists and turns that it took. The fact that Liam and Wise have gotten together is icing on the cake for me. Can Liam save Wise from herself. This book ends in a cliffhanger. Wonderful job Mercy B.

Poor Wise, if she had only listened

Now Liam is going to have to find a way to get her out of this mess, I can't believe Ashley switched like that..

Wow a lot going on

The plug was one neck of a mystery man. Ghost was as his name stated, he was invisible in The streets. Wise needed to live up to her name. A good read.

That ending

I believe if Lola hadn’t called Wise, she would’ve been more focused on what was going on around her. Lola’s phone call threw her off. Can’t wait to read part 2.

Liam and Wise

Whew chile that ending was something else, so Christen set Liam up seven years ago. It's a good thing Wise didn't ask Ash for that money cause technology they really don't have anything on her. It's basically her word against Ash. I have a feeling things about to get messy

Magnetic

I was draw into the characters description this author made you see the characters as if your watching a movie the details was precise descriptive and crystal clear she made you feel the natural beauty of WISE and love the flaws and insecurity of her person she's a lovable honorable crook and LIAM just loved her and encouraged her growth truly a loving tale .... can't believe that ending OUTSTANDING. Got to grab part 2 WELL WRITTEN

Be Still My Heart!

I simply love Liam ... who would have ever thought he was "The Man" ... His love for Wise is totally believable! The storyline was absolutely amazing; however, there were more than a few grammatical errors ... most were very obvious. How they were overlooked is beyond my scope of understanding. Nevertheless, I enjoyed the story and I will definitely read the next installment, as well as, recommend this series to all of my co-readers.

Love instantly

Lord this was so good despite all the errors. Wise and Liam had my attention from the jump. I love how strong a woman Wise was and how Liam took notice of that. He saw what he wanted and was on go even though she tried to play him at first. With every encounter he wore her Down and she knew she wanted that man. Everything was going well until Liam's warning goes unwanted. That's when Side's world crashes!

She's done it again

I loved this book! Wise was so young and still has a lot to learn about life honey. I loved how she ran across a real one to help her get her mind right. I loved her and Liam together. Can't wait for part 2. It's great to see my hometown be the backdrop for such a great storyline.
