I was only thirteen when I knew I liked him. Sixteen when I got the courage to tell him how I felt about him. Eighteen when I accepted I would never be what he wants. At twenty- four, I had to stop lying to myself. While I might consider Percy Boseman as the ultimate man of my dreams, he didn’t feel the same way about me. To him I’ll always be, Just Chelle. In the last six years since we’ve seen each other, a lot has changed. I wasn’t the little girl across the street anymore. Well, thanks to a meddling mama, he was back in my life. I was grown and he was sexy as ever. There wasn’t a chance in hell that I was letting this opportunity pass me by. Not even when my past caught up with me, by the way of Mr. Orian Royal. He may be Percy’s best friend, but he wasn’t anything like him. Now here I am. Trying to find a way to keep my secrets safe, my family intact, and Percy in my life, when Royal was threatening to tear it all apart.

Didn’t finish. There were a lot of holes in the plot like what was the presentation that Chelle gave and in what industry? There were a lot of grammatical errors and confusion on the narrative voice. The point where I stopped reading was when Chelle started acting crazy desperate and seemed to accept lowering her standards would make her more appealing to Percy. She was so desperate to be a part of his life that when he was blowing her off she just offered to have sex. She’s suppose to be a resilient single mother who is healing but she basically displaces how she is really feeling and not really address it and tries to cover it up through pursuing a guy persistently.
The book has potential but really lacks at the present moment.
I have received a digital advance review copy of this book via Netgalley in exchange for my honest opinion.
This was an interesting read. I liked it, even though I did have a bit of a hard time getting through the first third of it. But the rest of it was pretty good and I managed to finish it in one day.
A complimentary copy was provided in exchange for my honest review and opinion. I do not give spoilers so please look elsewhere. You have the right to not have the wonderful story ruined with spoilers. Hot explosion. Almost indecent in parts. A fun time for many!
What was the craziest thing you've ever done for a guy? How long would you wait for the man you've always crushed on? If you got him, how far would you go to keep him? Tichelle Mills went through high school watching Percy Boseman go through girls like he changed his clothes. Her one night of bravery, was a failed attempt. To say the least. With that night crushing her young heart, she went off to college and never looked back. Now here she is, a college graduate needing a job. Who else but Percy can save the day? Tichelle knew, this was her chance. It was now or never. So like any of us boldened by desire and lust, she took her shot. Her only problem was the other side of her life Percy had no clue about. Now here she is stuck between two lives with a possible threat approaching. A threat that could not only ruin her chances with Percy, but expose her and her secrets he knew nothing about. Not wanting to let go of her past life or her chances with Percy, Tichelle does what she knows best. She handles things. In a way that’s, Just Chelle.
