Good
This book was ok. The storyline kept me but that was about it. There were editing issues that took away from the book. I’m glad Symphonii held her head up with everything she went through.

This book was a little different from what Mz. Lady P usually deliver but as usual there was no disappointment. I really like Symphonii, she reminded me so much of British from Married to the Mob. My heart went out to her after all she went through. I wish her and Veno had never crossed paths, I really did not like him. I really love Symphonii and Nola friendship. I have such high hope for Symphonii and Rello. I think they can bring out the best in each other. My heart broke for Nola at the end because of Vito. He was really delusional an cared about nobody but himsef. I enjoyed this read. She stepped outside of he norm and delivered

Persevering Ahead!!!
Symphonii was the definition of what a survivor truly is and Nola was really a best friend that always had Symphonii's back. Veno was so shady for drugging Symphonii, dogging her in front of people, and getting her pregnant but a least he stepped up to the plate and was a great provider for her and their son. Vito was so shady for murdering his own brother, Veno, and then teaming up with Natalia trying to take out Rello and Symphonii. I wanted to cry real deal tears when Vito shot and killed Nola because she was a loyal to her family and Symphonii. At least Rello and Symphonii got their HEA together and he's being a good, loyal man to her.

Omg this book was everything from beginning to end! It’s crazy how VITO turned out to be snake the whole time! I was relieved when i knew miss Vera knew the truth! I’d never thought Vito would really turn on Nola but hey i guess it was coming once he knew she was the one who sent him to jail. As bad a i wanted Natalia to be handled i just knew RELLO was going to save his sister but damn he don’t make it in time! This is my first time reading from this author but surely won’t be my last! Keep up the great work!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This was such a short and very good read. Symphonii definitely couldn’t catch a break. I mean she went through tragedy after tragedy, I wasn’t to much feeling Veno. He was doing too much. I can’t believe Vito turned out how he did. Natalia was such an annoying person, I’m glad she got handled. Now Nola was the💩 I’m glad the Symphonii had her in her life. Rello was also a good dude and I’m glad that Symphonii had him also. This was a 🔥 read.

Wow this was so good Symphonii had it rough her mother didn't give a damn about her she was practically drugged and raped her first time having sex. Get's pregnant then her mother puts her out. She ends up living with her baby daddy for him to treat her like sh*t . He's killed, her mother died she ends up shot Nola dies and so does Ms. Vera from a heart attack but, she still came out strong because of Rello.

So real!
This is a good story. I feel the message in about being a teenage mother. So many young girls are pressured into having sex for unimportant reasons that it is scary. So I’m glad the short of overcoming that adversity was told in this way. However I must say I very angry with Nola keeping that money that she recovered from Vito from Symphonii. That was not being a very good. That was looking out for self. Anyway I enjoyed the book and would recommend it reading.

All Drama is not Good Drama!
This has got to be one of the most depressing books ever. Sometimes, I think that these urban authors get so caught up in delivering drama that they forget that not all urban romance has to be so dark, depressing and violent. Symphoni was so dumb it was frustrating, she must have moved at least 6 times before the baby even turned one. That was so unrealistic. Every character in the book was shot at least once, again unrealistic.

young love
This story had a bunch of drama twisted with young love within it. I’m not gonna lie I’m in my feelings about the ending but I loved the story. Veno and Vito didn’t deserve Nola & Symphonii. I think Symphonii would’ve been in a constant love triangle dealing with Veno but I’m glad she eventually found someone worth while. I loved Nola and glad that she always had Symphonii’s best interest in mind. She always kept it 100. Friends like that come a dime a dozen

Nola and Symphonii are best friends and even after Symphonii gets pregnant at 16 and thrown out her home, Nola family took her in. After her baby daddy getting killed she was still hated by many and after Nola finds out the truth behind Vano murder she does the needful. After all the drama Symphonii finds love in her bestie brother but can’t share her joy with her best friend. This book is phenomenal and I would love a book 2

Eye opener
You’ll really be surprised 😮 by so many teenage pregnancy. And how many teenagers grow up before their time. Everything Symphonii been through was destine to make her fail, but it made her stronger. Her character alone should push young girls to want more of themselves and to help identify the real from the fake

😍😍😍😍
OMG‼‼‼‼ There was a lot going on, but the storyline was incredible. Nola's character was my favorite and the few times I saw Rello name, I had a gut feeling him and Symphoni would be a couple. Great read. I really enjoyed every page. The friendship, relationship, loyalty, and betrayal was real. Excellent job as usual Mz. Lady P😘

Symphonii had a hard life from the beginning but it never changed her . This story had me experiencing a lot of emotions .I was so upset with what happened to Nola but I’m glad symphonii got her happy ending. I really wanted more of symphonii and Nola brother I forgot his name. I wouldn’t mind reading more of their story .

Fast paced standalone
This book was better than I thought it would be. Thought with a name like Symphonii that the main character would be a singer songwriter, especially since her mother’s dreams of being a singer fell through. Great deal of loss for young Symphonii but she came out on top.

I love you Kindle Unlimited!
Another five star book from my Kindle Unlimited plan. A good book is when you think you know the ending but the author does a complete right turn. Another book I thought was gonna be just another hood book but it was so much more. I really enjoyed this book.

Super super sad reading this book. Crazy to think this is life and things like this actually happens . I love NOLA !!! True ride or die. Symphonii finally spread her wings and became the woman most don’t after all she has went through. Is there going to be an update on Rello and the rest of the crew?

I put off reading this because of the title. Turns out it was an ok read. I really felt bad for Symphonii, I'm so glad Rello cane through and scooped her up, seeing Bless and Bianca really opened his eyes more. Man Vito ,Veno, Pil a an d Pooh was some grimy people, I hate Polar and Pooh didn't die to. I was sad about Nola and Ms. Vera, but she has Rello now.

Good book.. Symphonii went through some things and her best friend Nola was always there for her. I cried real tears when Nola died. Vito was just a dirty snake. He betrayed his own brother. I’m glad Symphonii and Rello worked out.

I was so mad when Veno died! Vito was dirty and he got what he deserved, Nola was a great friend I was so hurt when she passed. Love that Symphonii finally got her happy ending.
