Chrystianna is a woman torn. Her heart is with, Fabian, the man who swept her off her feet the moment she met him one night at a club. She wants to be with him at all costs, but is fearful of Prophet, the man that she has been with since high school, who is also the father of her two-year-old twins. Prophet has beaten her mentally and physically and she is terrified to leave him. That is until an incident in her home forces her to make a drastic decision. Fabian is the type of man who gets whatever he wants and, right now, he wants Chrystianna and won't stop until he has her. He's ready to wage war against Prophet in order to make Chystianna his but is she ready to leave the past for a future with the man of her dreams?
Magic has been friends with Chrystianna since tenth grade. The two have a bond that is super tight but one secret could ruin it Magic has been sleeping with Prophet off and on for years and may even have kids with him. When all of her lies and secrets begin to surface, her life changes in ways that no one would ever see coming. A familiar face comes in and makes her realize that all she has to do is open up and love herself, but will it be too late to right her wrongs?
Prophet is a man with more issues than Vogue. He beats and cheats on Chrystianna with her best friend and others. Plus, he has secrets that threaten everything around him. From his heroin use, to his down-low sex life, Prophet has so much to lose if exposed. He has done a good job at hiding his double life, until a fiasco erupts right at his doorstep. Will he survive? Or will he be outed to everyone around him?
Follow the lives of these individuals as they are all intertwined in some way. Lies, deceit and broken promises all threaten to do damage to everyone’s lives in part one of this heart-pounding trilogy.
Chrystianna is my favorite character of them all because you wouldn’t expect her to be in an abusive relationship or even settling for a man like Prophet low life ass. She comes from a two-parent home, her father is rich and famous, she’s educated, and has a good job. Then Prophet has the nerve to be so high and mighty when all he has to offer is hard dick and an even harder fist. He has more secrets than Victoria secrets and he works for Walmart. He is not worth the trauma he brings to the women in his life. Speaking of the women in his life, Magic is a trifling hoe, it’s hard for me to be sympathetic. Karma should never have to step in for a person to change their ways. But I do think Lukas is good for her though.
Fabian compared to Prophet is no contest. Prophet dick is an inch bigger, but Fabian is a much better ni**a. Ladies that is why you can’t get hooked on a dude for only what he has in his pants. Fabian not only has the cash, but he also has a strong love for Chrystianna. That’s where Prophet is lacking. Now Tiana is the true definition of a friend! She is ride or die for Chrystianna, like Magic should be. She did withhold some information from her. However, we all have that one friend that is blind to their toxic situation. So, I do feel she was waiting until her friend was in a happier place. Tiana and Dreaux are my favorite couple! I think they both hold back on each other. But you can tell Dreaux don’t play about his woman.
As far as the writing of the book there were a few typos and writing errors. Those things throw off the flow of the book, but the storyline is fire. The soul snatching sex scenes were everything It seems like the drama just kept coming! I love series because you get to see growth in the character. I hope in the next part we can get into Fabian and Chrystianna’s first meeting. It would be nice to know what made her put her fear of Prophet a side to even give prophet a chance.
I also love a good spinoff and a few characters showed promise. Mykel and Sariah are a couple you want to know about. Once you read the book you’ll know why. Levi, Magic’s son was someone I could see having his own story told. Tone and Trenyce relationship seem hilarious and I want to know more.
Overall, I give this book 4 stars and I think everybody need to go get a copy because it is steaming hot. I am waiting on the edge of my seat for part two and trust me you will too!
Held my attention from beginning to end and what a ending. I couldn't put it down....a page-turner. Enjoyed the storyline, plot and these characters. Liked the flow and it moved at a steady pace. This book was full of drama, action, lies, secrets, deceit and betrayal. Throw in the suspense that kept me wondering what's happening next. Chrystianna, was a torn woman...her heart belongs to Fabian and she's fearful of Prophet. So glad that she woke up and realized she's deserve s so much more. Magic, is a foul friend, but hopefully, she's she the light now. Prophet, is full of secrets of his own living a double life. After that ending, I know it's more drama on the horizon. Great job Tabeitha Pollard.
I swear Prophet must not like his life. He needed to leave well enough alone and realize his actions caused him to lose a good woman. I'm surprised Tiana hasn't told her cousin everything about Prophet. I understood Chrystianna was scared but she gave Prophet too much control over her and the kids lives. Magic really thought she had something special only to realize her so called love had been living foul and being grimy forced her to focus on the things she once neglected. Fabian and Dreaux were some good dudes and I loved how they both stepped up to help Chrystianna and Tiana when they needed it to most. Creeping around complicated so much in which friendships were tested, lies were constant, secrets unfolded, and new love was formed.
This is my first time reading a book by this author but it definitely won’t be my last. I love reading about my home state..I love Fabian and Chrys together...I don’t know if I could have forgiven Magic so soon if at all...I love Dreaux and Tiana together also...this was a good book from the beginning...it had so many WOW moments I couldn’t believe it...I wasn’t expecting that ending and can’t wait to see what’s going to happen...I can’t wait to read part 2....Tabeitha you did a great job with this book. This is definitely a must read....
That’s all I can say.... wow! This book was of the chain! From page one....to the end I could not put it down! It was well written and I loved the storyline. It held my interest and it was really engaging and fun to read. I couldn’t stand Magic after all she did..but was glad to see some growth in her. I really thought I was reading a stand-alone the way how the story was coming together...every body getting their happily ever after....but no! I’ll wait thou..cuz this book was pure 🔥🔥🔥🔥. Hope part two comes out like ASAP. Fantastic job!
This storyline will take your attention hostage as the character development unfolds. The girls will become your friends and the guys will keep you hot! I enjoyed and recommend this five star read. I can’t wait to see what happens next, and I hope Prophet dies a slow painful death. Looking forward to reading more from this author.
Has to be about the worst ending... This ending was the worst ever, he's such a non factor at this point in the read I'm wondering why the author would leave off like this. I would've been ready to catch the next one if something happened with the guys at the house. The story was alright, I'm hoping the author doesn't change Magic results or something silly though. Not sure if I'll catch the next one if it's not already out.
Wait, Why did you end the book like that. She finally got away from Phophet and got with a real man. Magic was a trick and was giving it to everybody. Tiana is also happy and got her man. Great story, Awesome plot and a real page turner. Can not wait for book 2
This book gave me life. I could not put it down. I loved all the characters. I love reading 📚about real black women supporting each other. I love how they all found a real man. I hope part two is not that far behind.
Looking forward to part two love Fabian he a real man and took to the kids at first glance and prophet needs all kinds of ass whoopings I just hope Fabian get to him first
Good quick read. I'm not understanding why Prophet has his panties in a bunch 😂. Like how you expect a girl to stay after treating her like crap?? I can't wait till Fabian takes care of him!!!
I need part 2 and I need it now. Prophet is going to get the same thing Quan got messing with Christianna. He already knows how Fabian and the crew get down, so he needs to disappear.
I screamed up in here! This Prophet nigga jus just foolish with his dirty tail. Everybody all happy in love and here comes misery! When will this blowup for him? How can he keep making everybody miserable?
This was a good read I'm glad Chrystianna left Prophet because he on nasty slimy man Magic deserve that slap because she was wrong but I'm glad she was woman enough to tell her friend and Fabian is about to paint the city red Prophet might as well get ready
This was my first read by author and I was not disappointed at all. I felt for bad for magic but glad to see that she trying to get herself together. Chrystiana was something else glad she left prophet alone. I'm definitely reading part 2.
Phophet makes me sick and I think he needs to come to terms that he’s gay. If you don’t want someone let them go and don’t hold them hostage for your pleasure
