Rate this book
Two city girls from up north relocate down to the hot south. These college girls with interesting backgrounds are just trying to live their best life while growing into the women they are meant to be. However, life is not always supportive of the personal goals and aspirations these beautiful bombshells are aiming for, especially being outside their comfort zones all the way in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
Meet Diamond Mason, the dedicated friend with a plan, Always having her best friends back. She stumbles upon Luca Wright, New Orleans finest, the best and the brightest. Avoiding men for two years after a sickening breakup, what is a girl to do when this fine man won’t take no for an answer?
Rayna “Rae” Banks has always been a hot head. She has a million reasons to give up. Yet, she refuses every time. Always protecting her heart, she is dead against freely handing it over to Zyair “Bear” Lewis. Unfortunate circumstances may force her to give him a chance, or will she figure it out on her own like she always does?
When you are a diamond, you are built for pressure. Will these two northern baddies live up to the saying, or will all the blood and pain force them to break?

Enjoyable

This book has you going on an emotional rollercoaster. It has you wanting to love most of the characters and killing the others.
I was really surprised when Woe showed up and how he treated Rayna.
Good read!
