If Bae Comes Home by Christmas
***THIS IS A RERELEASE***
“I’ll be home by Christmas!” That’s what India’s boyfriend Derrick keeps promising her. After being locked up for over a year, Derrick is ready to get out of prison and go home to his girl. However, certain circumstances keep preventing that from happening. India is sick and tired of waiting for Derrick to get out and unfortunately, that has led her to make some decisions that won’t benefit their relationship.
India is a young, smart and beautiful college student with a bright future. Derrick comes into her life when she least expects it and changes the direction of everything. When Derrick ends up behind bars, he recruits his brother Devon to keep an eye on his girl. Big mistake!
Devon makes a promise to his brother to take care of his girl, but he soon finds himself in a compromising position with India. Torn between being loyal to his brother and his growing feelings for India, Devon seems to be caught between a rock and a hard place.
What will happen when Devon and India’s relationship is exposed? Can Derrick save his relationship with the woman he loves or lose her forever? Will he even make it home by Christmas this time?

India was wrong with her actions although it seemed to work for her. Derrick was the real winner. Great storyline & read

GREAT READ
This book was good and interesting. I really enjoyed it. Loyalties were definitely put to the test in this book from Nyema's relationship with Devon and her friendship with Natalie to India's relationship with Derrick and falling for Devon. That was enough to have you saying what is going on here, is there no one else available for these people. Lol. Shaniqua was getting on my nerves but she was right with her prediction. I felt bad about the way Derrick found out about the betrayal but was happy as time went on everyone was able to be cordial to each other. They say you can't help who you love and it just so happened to be that the spark was between Devon and India.

Wow!
Pretty good read, but it really didn’t seem like a Christmas book. Devon really irked me because he couldn’t forgive Nyema for the same thing that he did to his brother with India. Talk about keeping it in the family.

Just be happy
This was a cool read. I understand how Indy could of fallen for Dee. The chemistry was there from the jump. Yes it was messed up cause they was bros but you can't help who you fall in love with. The author did a great job showing how it wasn't intentional but it was intentional. It took homie to go to church to pray on it which I know the other people involved was happy about since they walked away breathing. I recommend this cute read dealing with the heart and loyalty.

Interesting Storyline
This book was interesting from beginning to end. The little sister's intuition that India would hurt her brother should've been seen as a warning by Derrick. Nobody expected it would be with another family member though. I know people say you can't help who you fall in love with, but... interesting read not sure I'd trust Derrick really forgiving them because that was a lot to deal with. Wouldn't mind seeing what happens years down the road with this couple/family. Awkward family functions for real! Good read as always Lady Lissa.

This story was good and it should me sometimes you don't always get who you started with, India was wrong I'm not gone lie her and Derrick moved a little too quick but she shouldn't have cheated with Devon but then they actually fell in love, I was happy they were to fix the relationship between everyone especially Derrick and Devon , Devon & India expecting a baby and getting married!!

Wow interesting but good
Well all I can say great read. Ny let's start with her she was doing to much and regretted her decisions. Devon did like she did he was just as wrong as she was to him. Shanika was right I was hoping she wouldn't be about India. Derrick hopefully he will get the happiness he deserves. But must read..

Talk about betrayal...
Wow! This was a good book! Lady Lissa, you have done it again! I was hoping India would have stayed faithful to Derrick. But, what kind of fun would that be to read? I knew Devon was going to get India pregnant. They were sexing a lot. I wish Derrick would have had sex with Nyema, just to even the score. Lol!

OMG!!!
Nyema and Devon were a disaster waiting to happen. Devon was a messed up in how her did Nyema. India was in last with Derrick but slowly but fell for Devon his brother. India and Devon were so wrong on so many levels. Shaniqua the sister was all about her brothers period. I enjoyed this book.

Talk about keeping it in the family! I can’t believe Devon and India betrayed Derrick in the worst way possible. Shaniqua was right not to trust India because she sure proved her right.

Left Speechless
What Devon and India were doing is/was wrong. Yet I need they sister Nay to get a live. Clearly she has too much time on her hands. I still need everyone to find they own mate though. They was just doing too much.

It was a good book, but wasn't really a Christmas story to me.
Overall it was a good read but it wasn't really a Christmas story to me, I probably would have gave it a different title.. A lot of drama, twist and turns all the things that made it a good book.

All I can say is
Wow. While I thoroughly enjoyed the book, I'm mad at Devon. He went through it with NY so why would he do the same to his brother? I highly recommend this book to everyone who reads.

Unexpected Ending
Cool story to follow. Read well. Definitely should have heard from Shaniqua & Ms Mary. It would be great to have a part two.

Another hit
I loved the entire storyline. I didn't see any of the ending coming. I wish we saw a little more of Nyema towards the end. As usual, Lady Lissa did her Thang.

Jaws dropped!
Now that was crazy! I cant stand India, but at the same time, stuff happens! I don’t understand how Devon would want his brother to feel the same pain that he did, rather intentional or not. Its crazy how Shaniqua knew from just looking at her that she was gonna hurt him. Im glad it all worked out in the end. Spinoff *hint *hint, to see how things played out, or maybe so India can face her Karma!
Loved it!! 😍

Betrayal
So Devon lives by the old double standard. He should have considered his hurt having gone through the same thing himself. It was even worse that he betrayed his own brother. I really didn't expect India to betray Derrick. The only way the family could get pass this is through God - kudos to Derrick for taking the high road.

OMG I can't believe how they did Derrick!! What was really up with their sister cause she truly did not like anybody for Derrick. But she seem to not care so such about what Devon do!! What was she doing? I really thought that India loved Derrick Good Book It was a shocker

Choosey lovers, twin edition!!
Wow!! This story turned out differently then I expected. I guess the heart truly wanted what it wanted. I felt like the sister should have minded her own business though..

Not Her Best
There was a lot that went uncovered in this book. I just felt like there could have been more details to develop the story and characters. I've read other books by this author and this would have to be my least favorite.
