The dynamic duo

The dynamic duo are back again with a page turning adventure. The ending completely caught me off guard. I look forward to the next book because I need to know how things end.

FUN AS ALWAYS

This was another fun, messy little thriller from Tanisha Stewart that did exactly what I expected it to do. These stories always throw young adults into situations that spiral way out of control, and the chaos that follows is equal parts ridiculous and entertaining.
I wouldn’t call this a deeply psychological or edge-of-your-seat thriller, but it’s definitely a fast, drama-filled read that keeps you turning pages just to see how much worse things can possibly get. The characters make questionable decisions, the situations get more tangled by the chapter, and honestly, that’s part of the charm. You go into it knowing you’re about to watch a train wreck unfold, and you can’t look away.
It’s not a book that will leave you thinking for days, but it is a book that will keep you entertained while you’re in it. If you enjoy thrillers that lean into the messiness, the over-the-top situations, and the “how did they get themselves into this?” energy, this one delivers exactly that.

This is a brilliant read.
Wonderful well written plot and story line that had me engaged from the start.
Love the well fleshed out characters and found them believable.
Great suspense and found myself second guessing every thought I had continuously.
Can't wait to read what the author brings out next.
Recommend reading.

I read a complimentary advance copy of the book; this is my voluntary and honest review.

Oh HELLLLL NAW! That ending! The cliffhanger. I'm super invested, there is no turning back.

This story follows Max and Shatina while they deal with a blackmailing, emotionally unstable Sam. Sam has some serious attachment and daddy issues. We're introduced to THREE new players in the game. And now the muther fking ending that left me ready to throw my kindle. BFFR. I'm gonna need this series to be adapted. BET Plus 100%

Never saw that ending coming!

I’m only on book 3 and this is my favorite in the series so far! I wasn’t sure where it was heading at first, but the story just kept getting more detailed and better over time. I loved how Tanisha gave us a different insight into each character with every chapter. And my mouth is still wide open from that ending! I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again—Tanisha Stewart is the QUEEN of plot twists! On to book 4!

Walking on the dark side - Shatina and Max have found themselves drawn even deeper into the darkness they are not seeking. Max's ex proves to be more than a pretty face, lying in wait for him just as he did for Tina years ago. The characters continue to be intertwined in an unbelievable one-degree-of-separation way that is mind-blowing. Ms. Stewart has written a phenomenal new chapter to the tale, delivered by Ms. King masterfully as always. Let the reaping begin!

Shatina and Max were pulled even deeper into a dangerous web of secrets, manipulation, and impossible choices as past connections resurfaced in chilling ways.

Tanisha Stewart masterfully heightened the tension with shocking revelations and tightly woven character connections!

Catching a Break

This book the characters don't seem to be able to catch a single break. Every time they get ahead someone from their past pulls them back.

Great read

This book was just as good as the last one. Shaina and Max can't catch a break. It seems like everyone around them are out to get them.
