Loses a Star because story ends with To Be Continued; 3 years later and I'm still waiting to find out what happened.

Took a while to introduce all the characters but the story started off well. Apparently, this is book one and there is no indication that this is a series, found out when I got to the end and things were not resolved.

The Manors of Harrington Point is the exclusive neighborhood of an elite group of people, including a R&B singer, a former child star aspiring to be an actress , a mega pastor and his family, and family that earned their money by winning the lottery.

I truly enjoyed this 💎💎💎💎💎 book by @lacooljill, and would recommend it to anyone looking for a good read. I can’t wait to read the sequel.

La Jill Hunt is a local writer who writes urban fiction. I was able to read this ebook in one day. It was an interesting account of a mysterious arson. It was difficult to keep up with all of the characters, but I stuck with it. It gave you a small glimpse of life inside people with money, but it didn't do a lot of character building. I did not like the ending because it left the readers with a cliffhanger. I will be reading other books by her this month. Overall, I gave it 4 starts because it kept me reading until I finished.

**Warning: this text may contain spoilers** I love, love, love La Jill but I will tell you that this story took awhile to unfold and when it did it was so predictable. I really did love the story but I didn't like how it took 8 chapters to meet everyone and how we have to wait until another nook to find out about some characters back story. Overall, I did love it but only gave it a four because it was predictable and took too long to introduce everyone.

I guessed right, but then as the plot continued I wasn't sure. SMH

I liked the book (published in 2019), but if I would have known that it says to be continued at the end; and there is no part 2. yet (2022), I wouldn't have read it.

I really enjoyed this book! A small neighborhood of mansions with people from different walks of life with a lot going on. A fire to one of the homes brings the neighbors together for a cookout. You gotta read the book to find out what happened and whose involved. I'm looking forward to reading the next book!

Been reading Jilly since forever. I love all of her old stuff. This was one of the newer ones that I wanted to try because it had good reviews and she has a couple of series that people have raved about.
I am not impressed. This book was all over the place. I get what she was attempting but it’s like she was writing miniature novellas that had one thing in common- a neighborhood. I mean it took me several chapters to decide to finish it, and I only did that because I love her past work.
There will be a second installment and I’m not sure I will read it. I mean it was hard to become invested in any of the characters.
I think if you don’t have anything to do and you like LaJill go ahead and give it a go, but it’s not really a page turner.

Yes Baby Great Book

This book is wonderful . I love me some Lisa she is the peace maker of the neighborhood. She see good in everyone .Well almost everyone ,her brother in law gets under her skin. Yolanda is a full mess once she came on the scene. This book show that money is not everything you still have life problems with money . Please get this book and enjoy the ride in the Private Property Neighborhood.

I've read several other books by this author, so I decided to read this one.
The stories were good and I was able to finish the book quickly.
However, I'm disappointed that this book ended abruptly after introducing all the charecters.
Unfortunately, this book was published in 2019 and it's now 2026 and there is no sequel that I can find.
Had I known this book was going to end like this I likely would have picked a standalone book by Ms Hunt.

Private Property

A good quick read. Nothing with LaJill Hunt is ever just that simple. I love how she set up the stage for all the characters in play just to leave you feeling like you just ran 5 miles and feeling thirsty only to think you're about to drink a bottle of water and it's just a spritz. Waiting for the sequel.

[Fran Prostell-Clary]

[Deedee]

Not as good as I thought it would be...

[HoneyButterfly]

There were a lot of characters to keep track of. However I loved this book. Urban with a Christian spin. Can't wait for a sequel.

[Katrina Richardson]

Too many characters. Just didn’t care for it.

[Jounay]

3.5

[Deidre]

ok maybe i feel asleep but i read this already, this was the estates if i'm not mistaken and i loved that story.

[Danielle Wilson]

This book left me wanting so much more! I got a pretty good introduction of the characters and glimpses into their lives but with that ending, I need the sequel.

[Queen Rosalind]

Haven't read very many of her books but I am thoroughly enjoying all the ones that I have read or listened to so far!

[SANDRA QUINONES]

[Annie]

I didn't know what to expect when I opened this book, and I must say I am very pleased with the outcome! Definitely a MUST Read!
