Great story
This was such a well written story. The author did a really good job of building up the story and giving insight to the different characters. I loved the relationship between Barbie and Lance. Friends to lovers are the best. It was hilarious seeing wild Lance in his feelings about his twin leaving him. I’m hoping that everything works out for Tenley and Glee.

Beginning is way too boring
It was just too sloooooowwwwww and picked up a little towards the end. I really had to force myself to continue reading cause the beginning was so boring. A little excitement started towards the end.

Chiiiiilllllleeeeeeeeee!!!
I got pulled into this book looking for a piece of drama that I heard about surrounding a set of twins and one possible baby mother. As a blind reader I knew nothing about Tenley and all her mess walking into the read.
While I loved Tenley drive I felt so bad for her during most of this book. Being who she was kept her in an ivory tower when it came to love and relationships. I hated the double standard Tony imposed baring her from dating specific kinds of dudes but allowing the twins, Lance and Liam, to be those exact kinds of dudes. I understood it, but that didn’t mean I had to like it. However the moment Glee entered the story I knew he was the one!
I loved how he came in and let Tenley know that he wanted her and didn’t care about all that her family was on. I was so excited watching their love grow, even with its hiccups. However what I was not expecting was things to end the way it did! I cannot wait to see how things progress with these newfound situations because the drama is officially in high gear!
My name is K Sherrie,
And I recommend this read!

Dam Dam Dam!
Lakia great read! The cliffhangerr though!Tenley came from a family of the streets. She was the only girl and the baby. Her father and brother's over protected her. She was the person in the fat that was going to be all the way legit. Becoming a lawyer she was finally living her dream. Her twin brother's Lance and Liam lived their
life as they choose but they felt Tenley couldn't.
Lance had a best friend Barbie that Liam was jealous of, Liam was just a thot. Lance and Barbie are finally able to let their true feelings show. Will this relationship mess up their friendship? Tenley meets a man is scared to death to have a relationship with because of the life he leads.
Unfortunately, it to late they have fallen for each other but now Glee, has a situation that he doesn't even realize he has. Will Tenley and Cree survive? What is Krystal real motive? What will happen with Liam?

Woooww!!! Lemme jus say that lakia never disappoints!! If ur lookin for a story with some drama and a lil ratchet action, this is it!! The way tenley bossed up after that punk azz ex of hers, the actions of her twin brothers, shade from her so called friend and the closeness of the family set the scene of a good hood movie 💜 a child never wants to disappoint their parents, so i kind of understand where tenley's mindset was. She shouldn't have had to hide her happiness, but with all of the drama that is about to surface, i wonder if she'll have regrets. Liam and Lance have their own set of drama thats coming. Lance finally got the girl he wanted and Liam sort of dodged a bullet 😂 the main family tragedy may cause more because of secrets kept...part 2 is gon be official 💛💛

A Must Read
The twins are a mess but Liam got Lance beat. Although both of their mouth is reckless. Liam has Lance beat. I understand being the youngest and a girl at that but it's kind of crazy that Tony don't want his only daughter with a street dude and that is exactly what him, Liam, and Lance are. It was only natural for Tenley to be attracted to Glee cocky and reckless ass. His mouth is just as bad as Tenley brother's and father. Sadly I don't see that situation working out well between the two. Tenley and Glee lives seemed to be unknowingly intertwined and not in a good way. When Barbie told Lance that Krystal was weird. I definitely agree. Something is not right with Krystal. She seems sneaky and jealous of Tenley relationship with Glee.

Oh no
So this was a bomb ass first edition to this series. The twins were a mess but they can’t help it. I still don’t know which is which. I’m happy Barbie got her man and she and Izzy are at peace. Tenley is doing her thang, but her family put too much on her now she and her unborn is hanging in the balance. I hope Glee didn’t have anything to do with what they’re saying he did because if Tenley make it out and the baby is still among the living then she’s going to be heart broken. And that bitch Krystle is a true hater and not her friend. She knows good and damn well that’s not what happened. Idk know if she has a notice or she wants Tenley to herself but we about to see. Get into this series.

Woo...them twins are something serious! I love their relationship and how thugged out they are. But they are too old to be living at home. SMH. I’m glad Lance and Barbie finally got their selves together. Everybody knew that they loved each other. Liam needs to find him a good woman so he won’t be lonely all of the time now that Lance has left the nest. Tenley needs real love too. Now Glee went hard to get her. He acted a plum fool on their first encounter though. Lol. I hope Tenley is ok...Tony and Luna are about to loose it...because this ending has my pressure up needing part 2 like right now!!!🤣❤️🔥

Chaos about to be all over the place! What in the whole hell?! 9 out of 10 times when its almost too good to be true, its just that! This gone be some crazy ish. Im glad Lance finally caught himself and settled down with Barbie. That's the right kind of stability he needs right there! Isaac nasty tail had to go. He wanted to act like the big bad wolf and weak af. What kind of private investigator Tony done hired? Clearly, he didn't do his job right because that's a major detail he left out concerning Tenley. Whatever is to come, I don't see no silver lining in this thick cloud of smoke! I need part 2!

I really hope that it's some kind of mix up and Glee really not the one that killed Nico. Tenley would never be able to stomach that. Lance and Liam are such hot heads that they went in all willy nilly and could have possibly made the worst mistake of their lives. I love the Mills Mafia but I also like Glee with his reckless mouth so I'm conflicted on who's side I chose . I'm for certain rocking with Tinley. It's something off with Krystal. I believe she got a secret crush on Tinley. I patiently waiting for 4/23.💌💌

What's happening next?
3.5 but it starts to pick up in the end.
This book was about Tenley, but really her brothers are the most entertaining of all. It moves slow and some parts are filled with so much not needed detail that it was at a stand still. I have no clue about Krystal but I never liked her even as the designer and her judgement and cattiness was not needed. Tenley I didn't care for so far and I hope her and the family and her boo can get to a middle ground. The parents relationship was the best!

Not feeling it
I honestly want to give this book 3 and a half stars but I can't so four stars it is. This book just didn't do it for me. I couldn't get a good feel to it. It started off slow and honestly speaking the whole book felt that way. At least to me it did. I could do without Tenley character and that's sad to say when she's the main character. I would much rather read about Lance and Liam.

WHYYYYYY
First of all, why couldn’t call the twins earlier before Lance went sniper on Glee. This book definitely had a lot of twist and turns. I’m not gone lie I like Glee BUT if Tenley makes it and finds out about how her brother died I wonder how her relationship with Glee will move forward especially with how close she and her family are. Well at least there’s a date for part 2 so I’ll be waiting although I dislike “To be continued” books *cries*.

Camera/Action
What an action packed story. From the beginning to the end. The Mills Family don't play when someone hurts a member if their family, rather its a broken limb or a permanent nap. Tennley has been caught up with the foolishness of worried about how her family would feel about her personal life instead of trying to please herself.
Glee has come into her life and changed it in more was than one, no will she survive to see if he becomes her enemy!

Oh my! The action that the Mills family brings is exciting and nerve wrecking all at once. This family is rough around the edges. Tenley is a jewel and who she let into her heart will be the death of her. The twins want blood in avenging their brother's death, but how close they come to home is a real issue. Krystal plays a part in this and I'm wondering if it is just being a friend. Book 2 will bring even more fire!

Are you FREAKING kidding me!!! Ok that was gooooooood!!! Prime example of what's done in the dark. I hate this happened and hopefully in part 2 she will have gotten a very superficial hit. I don't even know how to feel. I don't really even know the right words to say. This just blew me!!! A very good read. I can't wait for part 2

I have.no words for the way this book ended. Liaam and Lance are indeed Double Trouble. Lance did seek some kind of normalcy with Barbie but he just did a NO NO. Is Tenley really sleeping with the enemy. Glee don't know what problems he have waiting for him. Krystal is a jealous bih. I don't like her and i can't wait to see what unfolds in pt.2

This story has left me stunned, especially that ending. The Mills family is close knit and is very protective of their mom and sister. The siblings find their own paths in their personal lives, causing some happiness and much more strife. Ready to see how the fallout ends.

This book right here was everything, those twins Lance & Liam don’t play Period!! Tenley has her head on straight even though she came from a family that runs the street. Tony & Luna don’t play when it comes to their kids.
WOW that cliffhanger was just wrong on so many levels.
Great Job 👏🏽 Lakia

All I can say is that cliff hanger at the end got to me, emotions are running high and patience are running thin but to be in a hurry to handle someone that knocked their brother might have just causes them their sister, smh. I really need part 2 like now because I can only imagine what's happened.

Shocked
Those twins are wild and reckless. But I love the closeness of the Mills family. Krystal seems a little to clingy. Can't wait to see how they handle Tenley getting shot and Glee

I need part 2 ASAP! I’m really rooting for Tenley and Glee, even after the bombshell that was dropped. I’m hoping it can be explained away and they get their happily ever after! Part 2 me please! This was a really good read!
