Pain was the only thing seventeen year old Cleony Rivers felt each and every day. Abandoned by her mother at twelve years old, Cleony was left to deal with her estranged and abusive father while pretending that everything was okay when it wasn't. It wasn't until she met Fasi, who swooped in and saved her from the bad situation.
Fasi was only concerned about one thing and that was running Chicago. Doing any and everything he could to eliminate his competition, Fasi finds himself sidetracked when he meets and falls for Cleony, who immediately makes him want to change his ways.
Promising to do everything in his power to keep Cleony safe, Fasi's past comes back to haunt him, threatening to ruin his one chance at true love and happiness. Will he fight back and protect those around him? Or will he fail and lose everything he worked so hard to build?
This was my first read from this author and I am hooked. I’m so glad the story ended and Cleo got her happy ending after all her heartache and pain. I’m glad your nasty ass daddy got what he deserved and even Fasi messed up, I’m glad he was man enough to own up to it and make it right with my girl Cleo. She recorded that conversation with Grace and even though she knew she would go down too she still held it down for her man and got the truth. I look forward to reading more!!!
This was an awesome standalone. You had so many twists and turns. I didn't see Jade cousin killing her or Cleo being the one to kill black. Im so happy that her dad got what he deserved. Its sad that thr same things happens in real life how the states falls for these parents shit when iy comes to keeping our kids safe how do you see bruises and believes they just saying this to get attentiin. I loved how your book showed real life stuff that a lot of people can relate to. Keep up the amazing work can't wait for your next book .So glad i decided to take a chance at reading an author i haven't read before
Man Fasi came and showed Cleony real love. He was truly her knight in shining armor. He came in just when she needed him too and never wavered. Fadi mom was a good woman who showed Cleony unconditional love like a real mother. Im sorry Cleony mom got exactly what she deserved. She wasnt being beat she git mad and left because her father was cheating. Good riddance. So glad everyone that needed to be taken care of was. Good character development. I just loved the whole book.
Cleony went through so much at the hands of her brutal father and it's good that Fasi rescued her with the help of Ms. Crystal his mom. They provided her with a safe roof over her head and provided for her. It's sad that Cleony befriended Grace for her to betray her because she was in love with Fasi. Jade's griminess caught up with her but I hate Cleony and Fasi was caught up in the crossfire. At least Grace got hers in the end. I'm glad that Cleony and Fasi got their HEA with their baby girl.
This was an amazing standalone!!! First time reading this author and it willn't be the last time...The storyline was great...I'm so so happy for Cleo...She was able to found and understand was true love truly means..Fasi was truly her blessing..I really like this standalone..Would most definitely recommend..Great job
I enjoyed this read so much because it was a mixture of funny, loving, and hardness all rolled into one. Cleo and Fasi were so very cute, I’m glad they both grew together. Such a heartwarming experience for Cleo to get to know that other people loved her and were willing to go the extra mile for her even if she couldn’t find that with her own family.
Omg from start to finish this book had me hooked. I love Cloe and Casi relationship and how they were able to work through everything . Not going to give much a way but its a must read.
Most standalone book feel rushed but this book was great from start to finish in really glad Cloe got her happy ending and I'm happy that Fasi got his self together because she didn't need to get hurt anymore.... Overall Great read 💜💙
Fasi pissed me off at times by always fucking around with Jade's snake ass. I really liked Cleo and was happy to see her overcome everything. I would have loved to find out why her mother left like she did though
Grace she was something else you can definitely tell that her and Jade were related. Fasi from the beginning he had Cleo’s back. Her father fit exactly what he deserved m...
This was a great book. I'm happy for Cleo and Fasi. Things could have gone a million different ways but I'm just glad Cleo got her happy ending and her father got what he deserved. Great book.
Things we as females go through but afraid to let others know because of self doubt. This was an excellent read and I loved all the situations that took place its a reason for everything that happens in life.
Loved it!! Can you say crazy!! Grace was crazy for real. How she gone set Fasi up to go to jail because he didn't want her!! Cleo went through a lot of hurt and pain but Fasi was there to pic up the peices. Love that this was a standalone!!
Great book from beginning to the end. Poor Cleony went through a lot with her dad. Fasi and his mom was a life saver. I’m glad that she got a happy ending with all that she had been through.
First time reading from this author and I was drawn in from the beginning. I will say that some parts I thought were a little questionable, so to speak but this was a great story. I am a new fan and will definitely read more of her work.
Cleony poor girl had it rough. Why didn't she listen to Fasi about Grace. Fasi dug himself s into a deep hole. Jade. I love the Ending. I hope there's more with Janelle and Jax
Try again... This was a try again story that made little to no sense. I can go on and on about all the bull that was going on but I'm not. This author has too many stories out for this nonsense I’m just about done with this author.
First time reading from this author I must say I’m very impressed love the stiloryline Cleo has went through so much in her life that she didn’t deserve but she prevailed and found love in Fasi to love their happy ever after ....
Spinoff,spinoff,spinoff .. Janelle and jax.. this was an EXCELLENT standalone.. THIS book had me so emotional.. I laughed, cried and was just all over the place EXCELLENT WORK...
His everything since meeting Cleo was to make her happy. I enjoyed this book from beginning to end. He made time for her and their family. It was worth it
Really good book. Fasi like most mwn slipped up but Cleo stayed by his side. Wish we got more from Janelle & Jax relationship i was hoping they hooked up.
