Whew Child

Where do I start? Let's start with Justin. Had a ninja asked me that fuck shit that he asked Ava - He would been pissing and shitting outta the same hole. Then he had to audacity to say he just wanted to try new things. That in itself should've sent up red flags for Ava. I would've needed some damn answers.... WHOOSAH!!!! So now we have Shane. Listen no matter how long you know a person for - Everybody ain't yo friend... That was some lowdown dirty shit they did. Then for them to continue to try and play the victim. Man 🖕🏾 both of y'all booty bandits. I must say Loryn you did the damn hang with this book.

The book had a few errors but did not take away from the story. Ava was so in love with her husband Justin that she did not want to admit how she felt. Justin was a manly man who was also a firefighter and married to Ava. Justin was living a secret life that he kept undercover for years. Justin loved Ava but she could not satisfy him in the bedroom, so he turned to men. When the secrets began to unfold, Ava lost her husband and her best friend Shane. Shane and Justin were sleeping with one another. Ava was distraught she was betrayed by her husband and her best friend. Ava was able to divorce Justin and move on with her life.

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

The audacity was on high in this book. Shane, Justin and Tate made my stomach turn for real. Shane even had the audacity to call on Ava after what he did to her…like 🤬. Ava really tried to be a good wife and was overall a good person who had some really trifling people in life and I hated that for her. Everyone needs a Dawn in their life because she did not play about Ava at all. Monica this b!tch had a lot of audacity too because how the f@ck you do this to Dawn all because Troy moved on….lawd this was a lot to read. The mess was definitely messing.

Great read

Justin was living a double life and poor Ava was caught in the middle karma finally caught up to him and Shane. Don't play with peoples lives. Ava was blessed that Kevin was a true friend who turned out to be her biggest blessing. I loved Dawn and Ava relationship glad sisters founds close family members to share there life with Kevin and Troy where blessings. Definitely worth the read.

Secrets

Whew Chile! Justin was doing the most this entire story! Ava was a good one to put up with his mess. I loved her relationship with Dawn. I loved it even more when Dawn's truth was revealed. Shane didn't deserve what happened to him in the end. But like the old saying goes: when you play with fire, you will get burned. Kevin and Troy was just what the doctor ordered for both ladies.

A little over the top... Ok so it's completely over the top, but I loved it. It has everything in there bar the kitchen sink!!

This isn't the first time I've read this book, and I still struggled with the dialect, but I can't speak other languages either and that doesn't stop me enjoying holidays abroad.

The editing lets it down for me.

Don’t waste your time

This book is horribly written (the grammar and language are ATROCIOUS!) The story is completely far fetched and jumps around and the main female character is completely gullible and naive. Quite possibly the worst book I’ve EVER read

Flabbergasted

This storyline makes me even more scared to date, you never know what secrets are being kept! Chile the nerve of Justin and karma met Shane at his door! I'm just glad Ava was set free with no residual effects and was able to find happiness with Kevin!

Domino effect

Justin’s selfish actions caused a big ripple effect amongst so many people. Ava loved the wrong man, it was nothing she did wrong. Talk about toxic baby mama- she deserves to rot in jail

Great story with a crazy plot! Some definitely deserved my multiple stars but could use some improvements. I hated Justin with a passion.

Lots of grammatical errors. It’s also harmful to insinuated that they contracted HIV because they were gay. That’s crazy! It just feels like you wrote that as their punishment for being gay
