Rate this book
Audrey, Chaos, Legend and his younger brothers August, Austin and Adrian run the west side of Detroit. Audrey at eighteen is only a year older than his brothers, but they respect and listen to him as if he’s much older. Their father, Apollo Legend, takes pride in raising his sons to be close and trusting no one but each other. Especially considering the fact that they run a tight drug organization. Business has been booming, and money has been effortlessly flowing in. But unfortunately, the enemies the Legends have lurking in the shadows threatens to destroy it all. Audrey and his brothers had a lot on their plates. Love and relationships were the furthest things from their minds, so when they stumble upon four beautiful young women and feelings get involved, their thrown for a loop. Junrnee White is a seventeen-year-old girl from the westside of Detroit. Her and her three best friends Brinx Young, Toni Sanchez and Coya Clark are beyond thrilled to start their senior year of high school. Having been friends since the sandbox days, their bond is unmatched. Jurnee has little interest in anything unless it’s her writing, family or her best friends. So its shocking to her when Audrey finds his way into her heart. In fact, one by one each Legend will find his way into her friend’s hearts as well. These eight young people will go through situations that'll change their lives forever. Relationships will build and some will crumble just as fast as they were built. Question is will they be able to overcome obstacles not only involving the heart, but the mind as well?

Satisfied Reader

Those darn Legend boys and their wild ways. Ava needs a backbone and i pray she make better decisions. Jurnee us my girl and i like how she's holding her own. Temptation(Audrey) is a mutha especially when it's fine and swanging. Those Talbert tricks needs more than a beat down. Their conniving and will do anything to get their way. Darius and his peasants needs ta go EXPEDITIOUSLY. Soo-Yung needs to crawl back under the rock she came from. Oh my i need pt.2 cuz i got QTNA

O.M.F.G

Babyyyyy! Ms London, you done did it AGAIN! This part 1 was INTENSE! Penqueen and SwagWordz was like a fairy tale; almost too good to be true. Crazy how it all came full circle. That's really a true saying. When you meet THE ONE, you'll know. I loved all the matchups. Ms Lane need to get a life and find a man in her own age bracket 🙄 this went from sugary to ish real quick. Them Talbert sisters, lawdamercy I wanted to beat them off the strength alone they were too young to be so thotish. One would deem the summer as one for the books. Man when Audrey and Coya decided not to say nothing, I figured it would come back to bite them in the hip but not certainly not that quick! I'm not even understanding why they decided not to say anything. I get the outcome would have been bad but shoots, finding out after the fact makes it way worst. Now this affects the whole group. I need part 2 like yesterday! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Decent Read

This actually would have been great and a five star read but there were quite a few grammatical error's. However I did love the storyline. I see Apollo don't realize that his four sons Audrey, August, Austin, and Adrian have dreams outside of what he has them doing. They also need to keep a close eye on their sister Ava because I have a feeling that Darius is going to get Duran to use Ava as a pawn. The brother's and their father also need to be careful of those crooked cops Joe and Stan. Jurnee found out real quick how petty Audrey can get when he want something and he wanted her. Coya and Audrey should have just told the truth because now it has ruined a friendship, a relationship, and possibly a brotherhood because Adrian was pissed off and Jurnee was too. While Regina running around hating. I can't wait until she find out just how scandalous and trifling her sister Brittany and so called baby daddy is. August is breaking Brinx down and she's finally allowing him in. Her mother popping back up is not good though. Brinx should have told her fathers from the beginning so they could've prepared. Toni and Austin need to stop playing games with each other before one of them end up hurt.

High schoole daze

I had to bring it down for a sec and remember that essentially these are kids 🤣. Man they are goin thru it! I love the way audrey and jurnee met, as in their connection on the writing board. Who would have thought mr chaos had it in him to be anything but a wild child hoe lol. All the couples mesh well with each other, i just hate the fact coya and audrey kept the secret about myrtle beach, then it comes out in the most humiliating way. Darius and his crew is gon die behind messin with the legends. Poor ava, i hope she knows she is now a pawn in a very dangerous game behind what she thinks is love. The summer was lit and is now over, i hope these kids get it together cuz this senior year is about to be full of drama and heartbreak 😔

What a way to begin a series 👏

For those who have read Londyn catalog thus far, we are not surprised or shocked on how 🔥 book one of her series was. Wow! I love all the Legend brothers and the girls and their dads. I'm not going to spoil the plot but this book entice you from the first paragraph. You won't be disappointed. If you don't want to read about high school seniors and young adults, don't read this then complain about it because it's clearly mentioned in the beginning 🤷‍♀️ eagerly awaiting for part 2!

Damnnnnnn.....

I really can't believe that Brinx's mother think that she can just come back into their like she never left. I feel so sad for Brinx. Now on to August n Coya.... I really can't believe that Regina recorded that video n sent it all around the school. She is s so messy. I hope that Coya n August get to speak their truth to Jurnee n Audrey. There had to be reason for them to end up in bed wit each other. Can't wait to read part 2! Great job mama! This was fire right here! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Who gave this a 5⭐️

I'm not sure how this book got so many 5⭐️ reviews because I couldn't get past page 60 before I gave up on the book. Once again, the chapters were too long...I don't need to read 30 pages from one characters perspective, especially when there are so many in the book. I get that this is a book about high school students but it doesn't mean that the book had to be written so juvenile. I've read plenty of books about HS characters that have kept my attention. This one just didn't do it for me

Mannnn Londyn!!!!!

Why????? Why would you do that to me? I kept telling for Coya and Audrey to tell his brother and his girl but they wouldn't listen 🤦🤦. SooYun needs to be handled for that and those sisters need to go because I know they set them up and can't wait to see what happens next. #tylerperrywhereyouat

Dope🔥🔥

I always loved Londyn’s work, never have been disappointed. This book was nice, new & fresh. I loved how all the girls had positive black fathers in their lives who lived their daughters, damn as for the men, having their father & mother in their lives was such a positive instead of the whole “daddy left, didn’t want to be around”.

Young Goons and Fast Gals

I loved the correlation between all the characters but there were a few interruptions to the flow of the story. The lack of editing or spell check definitely contributed to that as well. But, overall I did enjoy the one liners of Chaos. Several times, I laughed myself to tears behind him. Can’t wait to see how everything turns out in part two.

Baby!

That cliff hanger did not leave me hanging on. I fell!! So do her dads kill the mom and pops! Is we killing Regina and Brittany. What’s going on with Ava? Do Regina find out Brittany sleeping with her BD!? Do the Legend brothers ever admit they want more than the game? Does Ava and Chill get together how about reuniting some parents? I got questions

Must Read

The drama in this book. They hated on my girls so much! Those Legend Brothers were everything. I love them. Chaos was my favorite but things just had to mess up! Hopefully the truth reveals itself and everyone can mend relationships. Patiently waiting for book 2.

Haters gone Hate!!

Those sisters needs their tails beat so bad. I hope that Jurnee and Audrey can sit and talk it out. I feel bad for Cori as well. Soo Yon is a whole mess and a half evil self.
