C. Monet

70 books258 followers
I'm Author C. Monet of Clarksville TN. I write transparent creative romance with a splash of urban. My stories feature, smart, witty boss women and swoon-worthy, loving, flawed men all looking for one thing..... LOVE. Yes, you guessed it I write about love. My novels usually center around instalove, opposites attract, and redemptive love. However, I've been known to come up with love that cant be placed in a box. All in all, love is the motive no matter how it's reached. My books will leave you full; full of love, gems, and pieces of me.

Once life started to happen for and around me I grabbed the pen and decided to unmute my truth. I pen love unfiltered and undefined because rules can’t exist with creativity. The poetry in my words takes you to a place filled with dreams and aspirations of love and how it heals the soul.

I enjoyed this book especially when Rex came on the scene. Rex & Serene seemed more compatible. Good build up of characters and drama filled storyline.

This is my first read by this author, but not my last. Held my attention from beginning to end and what a ending. It was very well written and flowed so smoothly, that I had finished it and wanted so much more. So full of action, drama, lies, secrets, jealousy and betrayal. Throw in the suspense made this a great read. Chuck really loved Serene and knew what was coming after his death and he keep her safe. But he also wanted her to live, love and be happy. Now Serene needs to let that wall all the way down and love again. So love Chey and so glad she gave Serene a chance and saw something within her. A real Queen and we definitely need more woman like Chey. So many questions who survived the fire, who's that woman with Rex?? So can't wait for PT.2 to see what happens next. Job well done C Monet.

WOW. this is a must read. it will have you in your feelings all the way through it. Make you want to fight yourself for the dumb decisions you make in your life. It is so interesting how the love in this book flows. Chuck really loved Serene even though his heart was in the streets. In the midst of his work he knew his time would come and he wanted to make sure Serene was taken care of. Even as her days got longer with everything being thrown at her, couldn't believe that one of her best friends would betray her. Reading through the book has me imagining a drama filled, romantic, spoil the day type of movie. I was so stuck at the end of wanting to know who was at the door? Could it have been Corik? Was is one of them that escaped the explosion? Cannot wait for the second part.

The perfect imperfection

Whew. This was full of the right amount of chaos. There was a few times I was confused on dates and times (grammatical errors and story flow) but it didn’t take away from the full effect of the story. I loved that even from the grave Chuck is that dude. The way he protected Serene by preparing her for danger before hand was everything! Corik is a sorry excuse and that’s all I have to say. I love Chey for being a supportive big sis. For taking Serene under her wing and giving her guidance and pushing her to her fullest potential. Rex is a so loving and charming. I hope by the time Serene realized it, it wasnt too late. She deserves so calm after so many storms. Now on to book two...great read.

Wow

Okay first of all this book was so good! And second, Serene tore my nerves completely up, i really disliked her bullheaded stubbornness. She was so d*mn hard headed. Here she had someone willing to be everything she needed since her husband passed but she acting too stupid to see what was right in front of her. Im glad that she met Cheyanne though because she got her back on track as far as life goes. This book was well written and a great read so I suggest u read it if u haven’t done so already. Now on to part 2!

What an ending

Congratulations C. Monet on your 3rd release. This book was amazing. I really enjoyed reading Serene's story. I loved the cameos of Chey and Delaney. Although Serene has been through so much hurt I'm rooting for her to finally get the happiness and love she deserves from Rex. But will they be able to get that happiness after it seems Rex has moved on. Can't wait for Part 2.

Chaos and drama oh my

Serene chaos, very appropriate description for this main character. I know we all have alter personalities to some degree and we all have vices too. Serene was going through alot. And this book shows us how we sometimes inadvertently carry baggage from our past and also how the expectations of others can stifle you. Even though Serene worked my last nerve a few times I enjoyed the book and have already started on part 2.

Peace at war

C.Monet has broken into the pen game and doing it well! This series has so much truth of what love is and all the things we go through to attain it. Serene means calm or peace but her chaotic life and relationships won't let her be! I can't wait for Part 2 because the way this cliff hanger came I'm praying she don't catch a body or two!

Great Read!

First of all, I would like to thank C. Monet for gifting me this book. This was the first book that I’ve read by her and I absolutely cannot wait for book two. Serene got on my nerves but I hope that it’s not too late for her and Rex. I also want to know who made it out of her house.

Use of the N word in all its various forms is a major turn off for me - i don't care if you spell it ending in N----ga or N----ger.

5ft 1 slim but thick... In which universe? Why are so many black women described as being thick? I am not doing this thick thing anymore.

I would give this book negative stars if I could.

Different

I actually like this story of Rex and Serene. I've read this author before and have enjoyed her work. There were a few inconsistencies with the storyline and errors that I couldn't really get past. A lot of repitition, But overall it was a decent read.

Worth the wait!

Great read but I expected that from C. Monet. I read this story in 1 day. It was interesting from the beginning to the end. Three chapters in I had an attitude with the majority of the characters. Lol. I can not wait to see what's up next. Great job!
