Bonds Ablaze
For some, friendships are more meaningful than familial relationships. They hold more weight, memories, and secrets. Friends since the beginning of time, Londyn and Spencer don’t know what it’s like to not be friends. They are inseparable, almost connected at the hip. Spencer is quiet, driven, and fun while Londyn is just the opposite. They are the yin to the other’s yang. So what happens when the fun, slick shots are uncovered as underlying feelings? Remington and Spencer have been together since forever. They’ve experienced so many firsts together. Besides Londyn, Remi is Spencer’s person. What happens when jealousy and secrets revealed creep their way in? Charlie is Spencer’s older sister. Never being one to jump in the mix, she always played the background. Seeing the betrayal, Charlie finds herself on front street, trying to protect her sister, but with planning a wedding and secrets of her own being aired, will Charlie be able to protect her sister from the one she trusts most? Situation after situation leads to a night of intervention. Good intent is quickly tainted by soured relationships. What happens when that intervention turns into so much more? Will bridges be burned beyond repair, or can the circle of friends bounce back from the past?

“If you see me on fire and have the water to put me out, please look the other way” 🥴🫠
Spencer never though she would be expressing these words to her friend now former after being like a sister to her over the years. Everyone tried telling Spencer that Londyn meant her no good however because Londyn was there during Spencer and her sister Charlie’s darkest time, she’s determined not to allow anyone to get in between their friendship despite the MANY red flags being waived in her face.
They say a friend will do you worse than an enemy and chyyyy Londyn stood on business. She clearly has trauma that has her behavior out of pocket. Whenever anything went wrong in this book, Londyn was at the foot of problem. Friendships and relationships were tested throughout this book and there were moments where I was ready to lay hands, throw hands and everything in between. I saw the train wreck coming a mile away and my anxiety spiked almost immediately but being the glutton for punishment that I am, I couldn’t help myself and carried on knowing that ish would hit the fan and cover me completely!
BRAE has finally turned up the heat because this book was soooo good! It captured me from the very beginning and kept me locked in for the entire read. I love when I find a book that hold my attention the way that this one did. I mean the drama and the betrayal was 👌🏽. This was my introduction to Cherish and I will most certainly be diving further into her catalog. 4.5✨’s

Friend or Hater
Who needs enemies, when you have friends like this was the theme of this book. I love a messy story, but this wasn't for me 😩
Spencer (the fmc) was dumb AF, how many times does your supposed best friend have to show you they aren't your friend at all🤔 Like the manipulation was consistent and I was tired of the repetition. It just got old to me. Remi, the Mmc, he was all right and he KEPT warning Spencer about her friend, but he had skeletons threatening to fall out his closet so it was just a mess. Londyn was the pos friend, that was really a jealous hater. I felt cheated by her reasoning, I was like oh okay...😒 By 70% I didn't understand why this b*tch, Londyn, was STILL playing in Spencer's face. She was really apologizing for ish she hadn't done. My favorite character was Charlie, Spencer's older sister and protector. She gave off catch the hands energy, but the fact that the author made her soft with the hands,but fierce with the words was beyond me.
I did like the tea spilling ☕ scene, everybody got put on front street

This was nail-biting good!
What can you say except lawd hammercy. This book had me in all types of emotions. Actually I walked away from it about 12% in because I did not like what I saw in anticipation of what was to come. Then when I picked it back up it was not what I expected. Whew...so many twists and turns! Definitely a worthwhile read. Please check it out but make sure your seat belts are on because you are in for a ride.

Drama and mess! Bay bey!!! This book took me an hour to read because I was so engrossed into it. One of my favorite things about this author is how she can reveal secrets that make your head spin. This book was no different. The characters were far from perfect and in the end everyone got what they deserved. Great read!

Whew! You did that Miss Lady! ❤️ Damn, was this was 🔥!! I knew from the synopsis that it would be good, but you blew me away! That damn London ain't ish! For the life of me, for everyone to know she was trash, how did she know everybody's business? I wanted to just shake Spencer so many times. I know she your girl and all, but don't let her make you a damn fool! My nerves was so bad when I was reading, my kindle was shaking and I had to put it down and come back! 😂 Great read!
👍👍👍

Wow!! Great read . It's sad that the ones closest to you are the ones that hurt you the most. I'm happy with the turn out.

Frenemy
Mrs. AMore has done it again. You will enjoy this tongue lashing, nail-biting, want to fight, sitting on the edge of your seat read. This book brings all of those emotions out of you for one character Lyndon. She was definitely the frenemy that no one wants in their circle of friends. She made a strong impact on Spencer, Charlie, Brandon, and Remi. She was the jealous backstabbing type that caused harm to every relationship she had. I felt like her truth to Spencer was correct because of how she baited Charlie in the club.
I was glad how the friends recovered after she revealed their dark secrets. Spencer and Remi finally became one. Charlie married her forever. It was a great ending to a very manipulative person in their lives. I definitely recommend this book you will be fully engaged from start to finish. It is a lot of twists, turns, and hurdles but it is well worth it.
P.S. Lyndon was the type you wanted to just straight up with. She was doing the most in this book. She needed some of that down-home Southern discipline where all it took was a certain look to get your life back on track.

OMG Cherish Amore wrote a great story with this book. A story of live, friendship, jealously, secrets, and betrayal. Spencer and Remington had an amazing love, Charlie and Spencer had a great relationship as sisters,Londyn and Spencer had a friendship that turned sexual and romantic for Londyn unknown to Spencer. The things Londyn did to Spencer under the guise of loving her and wanting her fir herself were unforgivable. Spencer's unwillingness to see Londyn for who she really was and believe others when they warned her about Londyn almost cost her the love of her life and ruin things forever with Remington.
I enjoyed this story from beginning to end. 5 star rating Cherish.

Couldn’t put it down!
This book was filled with drama, love, loyalty and disloyalty. Friendships and relationships. Londyn was a true hater and I think she got off easy for all the mess she caused. She needed to get tagged a few times. You would want to read this book because it will keep you entertained and it is relatable.

Awesome
Awesome story. Great storyline of blindly trusting only to have to re-evaluate that friendship. Love how you did not let Spencer and Remi go right back to each other. You made this a real life experience. Kudos

Betrayal is Ugly
This book was realistic. It's funny how manipulative people can be. I loved the character building in this story and how things unfolded. Be careful of snakes is the lesson here. Never let anyone come between you and the person you love.

This is my first book by this author. I love how the story flowed throughout drama. Yes, there's a little bit of drama with a whole lot of love. I wanted to slap the mess out of Londyn for what she did to her friends, especially Spencer. I will be reading more from this author.

Spencer worked my last nerve sometimes you have to believe when a person shows you who they really are

This story will take you on a roller-coaster ride for sure.
A group of friends will find their relationships with one another as well as among the group put to the test.
Dealing with betrayal is hard on any level but this group of friends will have to face their individual flaws and hope their loyalty to one another is stronger than they think.
We've all done some shameful things, but honesty wins every time.
