Review:
"Cautiously" by S. Shanee Byers
My Speculation:
'Cautiously' will leave you feeling somewhat sorry for Nadia in how she grow up without a loving mom. That presented issues for her in dealing with her life, especially when it came to men in how she treated them. Even though Nadia had a loving father, sister, brother, and best friend, will she be able to see that she needed some help [therapy] in her situation, especially when it came to her mom and her dealing with men? I am not saying that the guy she was going to marry, taking abuse from him during their sex time, was OK because it was not!
It wasn't until Nadia met Marcel that she began to get the support that she needed because one could see how he was there for her through the thick and thin of it all. It was good to see how the author brings the group therapy sessions in with her family; that was greatly needed with that mother. And in the end, all seemed to work out 'Cautiously.'

Love With Caution
The beginning of this book had me HOTT and not in a good way. I didn't like the main character Nadia, at all for how she treated her fiancee, Keith, before they were going to get married. And the way she just casually threw out the word rape was a HUGE no-no. That relationship was over well before it ended officially and Keith should've ended it BEFORE letting all their family and friends travel all the way to Jamaica. What a disaster.
Speaking of disaster, Nadia's mom, Nita was a Complete Disaster. WOW 😳! She was horrible to her husband and daughter. Just WOW🤦🏾♀️.
Now, Gia, Nadia's best friend was a true friend bc I would've bounced on Nadia and her ways years ago. I loved Gia.
For the little part they showed up in the book, I liked Nadia's siblings, Donte and Naomi. I loved all 3 of their bond.
Now, as for the 2nd part of the book, I really liked Marcel. Sweet and manly. He was what Nadia needed; a real man who helped her heal and see her true self. I loved that he stood by her even when it got ugly.
Everyone needs a loving father like Darren. He was super dad and I felt his pain and love.
This was a good read. I'm enjoying this series.

Wasted potential
This story could have been great. Unfortunately the author just presented the issues , and didn't really show growth or progress to resolve the issues of the main character. She basically beat a decent man down, cancelled a wedding, went home focused on work , met another man, something felt different than other relationships. Her mother is a shrew who she basically mimics all without realizing it. Wasted 2 hours of my day.

Bitter Relationships
In the end Nadia found the right person for her..Marcel loved her for her. Nadia’s relationship with her mother hindered many of the previous relationships she had and left her bitter and always wondering what was wrong with her her questioning why they were interested.
Very good read but slow in the beginning for me.
