Wow that ending!!!
When it rains it pours and the hits just kept coming. Nevaeh and her toxic mom!!! Also Josh is definitely cheating and up to no good. Levi grandma situation, I knew something wasn’t right!! Josie I don’t trust her. J Roc’s secret came out if left field. Kyleigh has every right to be mad at Ice, but her dad is a plastic surgeon, she’ll be alright.

This wasn’t bad at all. Kyleigh giving Ice a taste of his own medicine was honestly satisfying, and he absolutely did not like it. When he got mad after seeing her with Marcel, all I could think was… he’ll be alright. I loved that she didn’t chase him or beg for his attention and instead went right back to Marcel. That was the correct move. Ice needed to feel what it’s like to be on the receiving end for once.
Ice was very clear with Desiree that he didn’t want marriage or kids with her, and she stayed anyway. Because of that, I couldn’t feel sorry for how he treated her. She didn’t respect herself, so I wasn’t surprised that he didn’t either. Ice should’ve left Desiree a long time ago, but again, she allowed him to dog her out. Kyleigh didn’t. She pushed back, matched his energy, and was the type to cheat back. She wasn’t moved by his attitude at all.
The contrast between Desiree and Kyleigh was very clear. Desiree was overly submissive and willing to do anything to keep Ice happy, and like Ice himself said, that turned him off. Kyleigh, on the other hand, wasn’t tolerating his nonsense, and that’s exactly why he couldn’t handle her.
Nevaeh was getting on my nerves. All that whining instead of standing up for herself was exhausting to read. I kept wanting her to grow a backbone.
Overall, the book was entertaining and enjoyable.

Ahhhh
My poor nerves. This book kept me on the edge of my seat. From the very beginning. Just when I thought I had a handle on things! Boy was I wrong! I was like yasssss when Veah let her raggedy mom have it! She was such a hater! I loved how Kyleigh really tried to stick to her guns!why I think Josie is the oops! Levi is bae all day! I believe that his mom is the reason the cop is going so hard for him! I think J- Rock should have just been up front. I have no words for Ice! Desiree is one seriously unstable creature and she is responsible for that ish with Kayleigh! Part 2 bout to be to bananas! Sensational series so far!

Oooo
Man oh man! It was just getting juicy! I can’t wait for part 2 and see how this all plays out. Neveah’s momma is a b**** and I hope her daddy finally does something. Levi is bae for real and the detective that got a hard on for him needs to die. I hope Kyleigh is okay but I’m sure it was Desiree who cut her brakes. Now J-Roc got some explaining to do and I hope Josie isn’t on any f*** s***.

Great read
Tayyy! Why you had to end it like that lol. I need part 2 like tonight. I love neaveah and K relationship showing true meaning of that a real friendship and sisterhood. However, the men I'm this book are funny, crazy, sexy, and cause you to have a headache. I'm ready for part 2 to see how theses characters are going to grow and see which couple can overcome their problems.

Book worm
Neveah mother is really getting on my nerves I mean how can you really great your daughter that way. I really hope her and Levi becomes a couple. Kyleigh is having all sorts of bad luck hopefully she makes it out ok and Ice gets himself together. J-roc lying to Josie wasn't fighting should have told her he was married let her make the choice of being with a married man if that's what she wanted.

Must Read
I couldn’t put this book down I loved all the characters especially Levi he is so rude and crazy I couldn’t get enough of him. This book had the drama and craziness that will suck you in. The ending is jaw dropping leaving you with so many unanswered questions and I can’t wait for part 2 to get the answers.

This was a really great story
It had all the things that happens every day to young women in love with dope boys. I can't believe how each relationship to a turn for the worst at the end. Every character fear happened at the end. I hope kyleigh is ok neveah and levi gets a happy ending. Hope josie understand j-roc reason. Ice and Kyleigh get it together. Part 2 can't wait

This was different. It took me a minute to get into the book because I’m not used Tay books started with all the characters being ass holes. But as I kept reading I was all in. I love how Nevah’s character started to evolve and even Levi is doing a lil something. Can’t wait for pt2

Rough around the edges and hood as they come. The men I grew to love. In the beginning they were a bit too much to handle but the more I read into them the more I liked. Bougie at its finest is what I Naveah, naive and willing to please everyone that ws until Levi. They good for each other. My fav couple so far. I can't wait for part 2

A cute fast paced read!!!!
I absolutely love the opposite attracts stories and this one had it ten fold and it was cute to see the struggles to stay away, the resignations coming through very quickly as to what to do and accept and what not.
Levi was in a class of his own. I did feel that he was trying too hard at times to be tough or vile, but overall he was an ok guy.
Nevaeh was definitely cute. She was definitely not from this world and was green a lot. The only thing I didn’t like was the fact that she allowed the y’all to her and conceded a lot. I mean you can be green and all but come on, you know how a man is supposed to talk to you and it or how a human being should treat you or not and this ain’t it, but with having the others also talk like that to her, I guess she had to take some and leave some.
Isaac was probably for me the best of them. I like his no nonsense but bad boy, won’t take anything from I one and all. He was genuine!
Kyleigh well was a little bit too ratchet and also tried to hard to be this hood bouvier chick and it was so unnecessary and unwelcome.
Jeremiah “J-Rock” was the most quiet, mild tempered of the three but one never knows: it’s always the quiet one to be careful of.
Josie was sweet with a little bit of fiesty in her. Now the business of running around to her momma and talk about her private affairs got to go, that’s why you got you BFF for and your momma is just that, your momma!
These couples have their work cut out from Jason, to Meyers to Desire to Marcel to Marcie to Dorian, everything is out there without adding the mothers, fathers and grandmas issues, so with all that, let me found out what going to happened now that we have been introduced to the group...

Good book. I’m starting to think Neenah mom has issues with her. Like what type of mother treat their child that way. Then her daddy always gone. Roc secrets. Ice and bis trouble.

👀oh my
These three fellas have quite a bit of drama going on! Levi is so mean but he has some very endearing qualities. I can't believe what J-Roc was hiding🤦🏾♀️ and Ice better get his ex together before somebody gets seriously hurt. I do not like Neveah's mom🙄
