For this witty, unique and curious woman, life seems to be falling together and her dreams are finally coming true. That is until she’s forced to face the consequences of playing a dangerous game with love. Samantha quickly learns the true consequences of her actions in the most deadly way. Will love find its way back into Samantha’s life or will she forget about the lessons she’s learned and end up getting burned one last time?

Absolutely Fantastic
First I would like to give a round of applause to Zarkia and K. Larry, this was truly an extraordinary book. The storyline just flowed together and it was something different and I loved it. I knew Tessa wasn't right some kind of but I was shocked cause I just knew that she was Jason's sister. He should have just took that L and kept it moving. I love the sisterly bond that Patterson and Davis formed from the jump. Graham should have stayed in Germany trying to reek havoc and ended up getting put to sleep. It was so wrong how they treated Davis while she was in jail. Not only were they drugging her but she basically had to deliver her own babies. I'm glad Patterson found love in Darby and Davis in Dre. 💟💟

Very Deep
I really enjoyed this book. It was hard at first but once I got into the story I saw what women go through in the military although,they became killers , the family that Patterson and Davis formed with one another was amazing. The love that Dre showed Davis was a nice touch, also, I liked you showing love has no bounds your heart loves who it loves. Congratulations to Patterson and Darby. Great Story

This book and its message was excellent! I loved every minute of it. It made me laugh, smile, get angry, and feel anxious. This book touched on so many emotions and the messages from the authors at the end just really touched my heart ❤. The characters were so believable and well liked though they lived life on the wild side. Thank you Zarkia and K. Larry for sharing your gift with us.

Satisfied Reader
What don't kill you makes you stronger. Hatred tried to break Patterson but she came out swinging. Her Angel by the name of Love was at the right place. Essence was a great friend and Darby snuck up on me. They were so good together. Andre was sparred and he has the perfect woman by his side

Good read
Wasn't for sure where this ride was going to take me but I enjoyed it. Glad David got her name cleared, her man back and kids. Patterson and Darby deserved their happiness to. Patterson being the responsible one of the besties did the right thing by setting Davis up the way she did.

🔥🔥🔥
This book was definitely a page turner from start to finish, two women serving their country and making a way for themselves at the same time. Both Patterson and Davis overcame so many obstacles and stuck
together through it all. Great read

Military with an urban flare
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this story because it is very engaging and different. It's military with an urban flare. I love the characters and the bond between Davis and Patterson. This story has plenty of drama and action.

Emotionally Rollercoaster
This story took us on the ride of our life. I enjoyed reading this book, but I kept getting the women confused. I really liked how love won in the end.

This was a great read!!!
Davis went through a lot of unnecessary things with jealous people. Patty Cake was my girl!! Family is not always blood.
