Love was never easy for Nastascia or Asanti, but in each other they saw the possibilities of this time around being different. The foundation they were attempting to build was shaken by a light being shone on the people Asanti thought he had left in the darkness. Nastascia is left reeling and questioning her judgment, once again, believing love just wasn't in the cards for her. After the man who replenished her and promised her a lifetime of happiness struggles to come clean about his past, their problems become a tidal wave that neither could find the life raft to save them from.
They say numbers in sequence means a new path or new direction, but will Asanti and Nastascia overcome their difficulties to embrace the promising journey they both have embarked on? Or will this new direction cause them to go in separate ways?
Ma'am, you did not have to have me in my feelings like this! I thought after the ending of book 1, that Asanti would get some act right, and be good to my girl! But, Lawd I was not ready for THAT revelation! I knew it had to be something, because he didn't want he Stas to read his book, but damn! Okay, I love you Asanti, but I wanted to beat yo ass myself! What the hell man? After all that Stas had gone through, and was still going through, you do this to her? Ughhhh...... 🤬 I know that his love for Stas was real, and he was moving with a pure heart, but his execution was ish! Just too many secrets bruh! Poor Stas! I really felt for her, to have to deal with this mess again, from the man who she loved with her whole being! She wanted to say the hell with him, but that love they shared was too potent and special, that Stas couldn't stay away forever! When Asanti began to pull out all the stops to get his woman back, I was in awe and had to give him a little grace. It was beautiful that he gave her the day of her dreams without her even being involved! I'm still giving Mrs. Turner the 👀 for her behavior, and how she allowed Michael to treat her daughter! I blew out a breath of relief that Asanti would not have to deal with that crazy Luna, cause Stas would have had to hem her up at some point! 😂 Loved these characters, but I hope we get one more book! I would love to see Manny and Imani grow up, and what becomes of Nicole and Izzy. Great work! 👍👍👍
This book!!! Took me on such a ride! I didn't know if I were coming for going but I am so happy Asanti and his Peach got it right! All the ups and downs of relationships, family, and even friends made this book such a heartfelt read. I can't lie though, Asanti AND Nastascis had me 38 hot for a while, but I understand both of their positions. Can't wait to read more!
This was a good story. Natascia went through so much she deserved her happy ending. Asanti was a mess, he always means well but could hardly get out his own way. I’m glad Nastacia put her foot down and set boundaries and Asanti finally got it.
Mrs. Dior, the first part of this book had me at a complete stop however this one has me yielding. I had to slow down and make sure I absorb the whole story. I am wondering 🤔 is this series over? I feel like Amos and Chandra should get to share their story. Does Nivea ever meet her soulmate? How about Mia? Once again take a bow you wrote this. The plot twists are popping.
Asanti and Nastascia's relationship/marriage wasn't short of any speedbumps or valleys. The valleys were low low while the mountains were at the top of Mt. Everest. I was glad for the happy ever after ending. I love the fact that Nastascia made Asanti work to get back into her good graces. I also loved how determined Asanti was to rekindle his love between the two of them. His actions screamed he was all in and he wanted a family. He had built a great repertoire with the kids as well. They looked to him as a father figure more than their biological fathers. I will say I was a little disappointed in Izy and Nicole. I wanted that generational curse to be broken with Nastascia's kids. However, I like how Nastascia embraced Izy unlike her "father" did her. I was also glad that Nastascia got to meet her biological father. That was a job well done by Asanti. She needed to feel the love of a real dad, not that phony one her mother married. I think over time Stas and her mother will mend their relationship. It will take some time because that thirty-eight-year secret cut deeply. And little Saint was still a hoot in this book. In the wedding scene, I was weak. 🤣🤣 His young character shined, acting school should be a go, not an option.
I loved how Saint and Stas's story concluded. The time and intense therapy Saint put into Manny was admirable. He helped Manny go from not being able to read to reading on a college level. I loved the relationship that Saint had with all the kids. He really treated them like his own. I wonder how many more kids will he and Stas have before they are done. How large will the family be? Mrs. Dior, you have gained another faithful reader. I am looking forward to what you release next. I felt like I knew this family personally and I love that type of connection when I am reading a book. If you have not got the opportunity to read a book r get into this series, now is the time. You will enjoy Asanti and Stas' story it's a lot packed into two novels.
Nastacia and Asanti sucked me in, in book 1, so I was sure they would continue to take me to new heights. BRAVO TO YOU ROSÈ DIOR, BRA-FREAKING-VO! I'm still blown away at how full this story is, being that this is only book 3 for this author. Superb👍🏾.
Asanti was so wrong. I get being wrapped up and in love, yet not only did he marry Nastacia for all the selfish reasons in the world, yet he left out that he was already hitched. I didn't get him. He had chance after chance to just be open and honest with Nastacia and he fumbled that ball horribly🤦🏾♀️.
What I will say is that I loved how persistent he was. He understood he'd messed up and went to all extremes to get his "one" back. I also love that he took on the responsibility of caring, loving, supporting and showering himself to Nastacias' children, as if they were his own. The bond he formed with them solidified for me that if nothing else, he was placed strategically into their lives, purposely.
That darn Saint is a fool. I loved this little guy and I hope it isn't the last we hear from him. I'm glad that he was able to be with his dad, Amos and that Amos is now on the right path. I definitely need more on him and Chandra.
Nastacias' side of the story just kept breaking my heart. She just kept getting hit with blow after blow. One thing I loved, was her resilience. She would get knocked down, yet didn't stay there for long. Her ex, Isaiah Sr was a punk. She told him she didn't want him and he not only retaliated once he saw how real she was with being with Asanti, yet he hurt the kids, his own son, Izzy, in the process too. I'm glad that Izzy has his own relationship with him bc Asanti was playing no games with him anymore, as he shouldn't. This is a grown man throwing a tantrum bc he NOW decided he wants to get his life together and be a real partner to Nastacia and father to Izzy, yet can't just take his L and move on; clown😒.
I was a bit taken aback by Nastacias' reaction to Asanti ex, TaNia confession. I get she was fed up bc of the Luna (or Looney tunes bc she was crazy🤦🏾♀️) situation, yet I think she should've given Asanti a chance to explain himself. Did he mess up, royally, YEP! Yet let him try to dig himself out of it. Oh, but she got him good. That room scene had me ROTFLMAO 🤭! Either way, I'm glad she left and made him work to get her back. These two really belonged together and Love always wins.
The whole situation with her mom and provider, who she thought was her dad, was just ridiculous. He was dead wrong and I'm glad she's cut him totally out of her life for good. I love that she took a chance to bond with her actual father; they both needed each other.
I could go on and on, yet I like how all of the side characters are played up in these books. Loved seeing Prestyn and Adrian as well. I'm sure it won't be the last of all these characters or at least that's my hope.
Again, Bravo bc this was impeccable. I'm glad I caught this author at the beginning of her journey bc she can't go nowhere but up, and I'm not even sure where that's at, bc this is already top tier writing.
This was a nice ending to a good love story. I feel like the finale was hyped up but it actually fell short in my opinion. Nastasicia overreacted to the Luna situation, like be mad at the situation but technically he did nothing wrong . She used the fact that she ended it with Isiah but that was before they were official and she told Santi about him because he was a permanent fixture in her life. No one goes into hook ups they have nor do we break them off, we just don't indulge in then anymore. I'm and and hurt with Izzy and the Arthur. We had a whole image of the type of son he was just to find out it wasn't all skittles and sodas but we're all human. Nicole was sneaky and I really didn't like her, I wish we would have got more of their interactions because i feel like she used her situation for izzy to feel sorry for her. I felt like the time lines were off a bit, especially Amos designing A.D.'s house roughly 3 years ago but wasnt he an addict at that point. The Michael situation I feel could have been done a bit better. Love doest just shut off because of 1 occurrence and especially after 18 years blood or no blood. She was a daddy's girl and now he's an evil man because he threw petty shots at you and was criticizing you, inconsiderate maybe but definitely not evil. I saw it coming when Asanti met him but I was hoping that wasn't the angle it was taking.
Long awaited finale to Asanti and Nastascia love story and boy she got on my nerves 🤣🤣🤣. This book had a lot of drama in it, I was like Asanti you knew she was a flight risk about lying so why withhold information 🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️. Nastascia was so stubborn it made no sense, but Asanti didn’t let her go easy. That ending was so sweet Asanti made sure she had everything she wanted and made sure she got out her own way. But also showed her how much he loved her children just like he loved her.
I knew Luna was a liar, both her and the ex were just mad they never fully got Asanti like Nastascia did. Isaiah was a “F” boy for what he did, I was like someone is mad mad smh and Im glad Iz told him about his actions. The situation with Nastascia and her parents, I was like dang I didn’t see that coming but it all worked out for her. Saint was my favorite again, that young man had we weak the whole book! I loved seeing Amos get his HEA, he stuck to what was needed to get hisself on the right path and he made it happen!
I definitely could not put this book down, This book definitely kept me on my toes. I hope this is not the end of seeing these characters because I will miss Saint 🤣🤣🤣.
I love that this book showed the woes of love. Now Stas was driving me crazy. She was so stubborn. I hate how Isaiah Sr did Stas after all the love and care she gave to him. Asanti was a really good man. He took care of Stas like she was indeed his peach. I hate that he held the truth from her for so long. Ma’am I’m hoping your writing the story about Amos because we need to know more.
I'm so so glad that Asanti had some good running shoes because one thing Stas gone do is run. Though I admit he should have been forthcoming about somethings in his past. With all that being said the bond he built with her and her kids could not be denied. Izzy ain't play about his step daddy lol I want to say hats off to Stas because she raised a man in Izzy. He will make some woman very happy one day. I loved the ending it was so beautiful. This was such a good follow up! Kudos to you rose Dior!!
The idea for this story was carried out very well. Asanti and Nastascia's story was an unexpected treat. Even though Stas had three children and no husband, the author focused on her relationships without shaming Stas. The family dynamics with her parents were sad. Overall, the story was terrific.
4:44 is such a great follow up to 11:11! Rose’ continued to give us such a great complicated love story between Nastacia and Asanti. Book two find the two deeply in love and dealing with past demons, some withheld information, and some hating ass people. Rose is so gifted in creating such unforgettable characters. I hope to see this crew again , I’m addicted!!
These two drove me crazy but I loved every moment. Saint really meant well but I was about sick of him 😂😂. This book was such a good read and I enjoyed every minute of it.
These two had me on a emotional rollercoaster, this book was Everything just like the one previous. This author never disappoints and I can't wait to read more from this author. I was so happy with the end.
I really enjoyed the journey Rose' Dior took me on. It made me laugh and cry and laugh some more. If you are looking for a great series, look no further.
This was a great finale. This series was my first time reading this author. It was a good pick. The story was well written and flowed well. A pure feel good black love HEA. And, Asanti was amazing! A book bae for real. I would recommend this series.
Just when I thought book 1 was great. You drop this baby on us. Just enough drama and such a beautiful redemption story. Lil Saint is my l dude. These characters have become family.
I so desperately need a book for A and Chan! Rosè Dior, you have a new fan! I was so engrossed in both books and simply couldn’t focus on anything else! I’m so glad that Saint and Stasi finally got themselves together. Can’t wait to read more from you!
Girl your so raw!!! This is my first read by you and baby you did the da*m thing!! Whew girl I got so emotional at the first book I thought I aaa reassign about me for a minute.. This book right here gave me hope a single mother myself made me feel like welp maybe there is love on the other side..These were well developed and just so fire I can’t wait to see what you have in store next!!! ❤️
Omg!! This series was everything! Laughter, tears, and every emotion that could be expressed was felt! The redemption, restoration & renewal of hope, faith & love was ever so present! A story within a story! Well done!!! 🎊🥳🎉
This was definitely a good read. I love how no matter what took place they was able to come back to each other and have their happy ending. It's awesome that his brother Amos was able to get himself together not only for himself but for lil Saint and he found happiness as well. Y'all gotta read this series.
Lawd, Rose’!!!! I have no words but so many. For a minute I wanted to jump in this book and do some damage to Saint. This was a true love, lies, and redemption masterpiece!!! When you know you know!!!
Asanti and Nastascia hit a bump in the road but in the end they found their forever! Izzy and Nicole shocked me but I guess it was bound to happen. Those Ex's were a whole trip and Asanti was so wrong for not sharing his past but in the end it was a beautiful joining of lives and family! I was so happy for Chandra and Amos and so glad Anastascia found her real dad and they formed a bond. Michael Turner was a trip and her mother was wrong for not being honest. Loved this read!
This book was so so good. The way it felt like our girl “Peach” couldn’t take one more thing… then boom it was one more thing. The way “what was meant to be” definitely was and did. Read this series you will love the way this love story acoustically strums at your heart strings! Rose’ Dior exquisitely written!
Whew! Nastascia & Asanti!!! This was a rollercoaster ride! I wanted to get off but I couldn’t! I knew TaNia wasn’t going down without a small fight & I knew that baby wasn’t his either. Stasci finding Noah was a happy ending that I loved for sure! I could visualize the wedding & wishing I was there. Saint is the cutest & my son is the same way lol!
Great!!! Loved every page!!! I’m so happy Nastascia found her biological father🥹🥹what a tear jerker there🥹 Asanti had some serious skeletons but he conquered them all. This is so worth the read! But be sure to read book before this one: 11:11 prequel 👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽
I simply Adored this series! All of the characters were so relatable and endearing! I really wouldn’t be mad at another on…1:11 or 7:77!!! I love your pen Sis! Be blessed🙏🏽
