When Karma Hits

Rate this book
Unique James never imagined herself risking her own freedom for a man, but that’s exactly what she does for hers. When she learns that her loyalty to Rashad will cost her sixteen months behind bars, all she asks from him is to return the same loyalty. After being released, Unique felt as if she was living a fairytale with the man she loves, but she couldn’t help that deep down she was also feeling in her heart that everything was too good to be true. Slowly but surely, Rashad’s disloyalty starts to show, and when Unique has had enough, she decides to beat him at his own game.

Rashad Russell has always loved and worshipped the ground Unique walked on and nothing would ever change that, not even the other woman. What was all supposed to have been fun and games for Rashad with this other woman has turned into much more. Despite Unique’s release from prison, he has no intention of letting either woman go.

Find out what happens when loyalty, trust, and bonds are put to the test.

Ok, on to the next installment

Rashad and Beauti are trash people! They both equally wrong for this secret and need to come clean. I'm glad Unique found Dyce ☺️... sure needs a good person by her side.

Book thoughts: Some parts lagged and the plot moved slow but it built up the next parts so I'll take it.

Deceit needs to be exposed!!

It’s crazy how the ones closest to you hurt you the most.
Uniques first mistake was taking that charge, second mistake was not seeing the deceit right in her face. I’m amazed trying to figure out how Beautii thinks the whole thing is going to play. Rashad wanted his cake and to eat it to.

This was a pretty good read... Man the backstabbing is so real in here... Then we have a man playing with the heart of two women... This book had me all in my feelings and mad at the whole book... I am wanting to shake some of these characters up... Like just why... ugh...
I really like Unique... I know how loyal she is and always has those she loves back no matter what... But it looks like no one will do the same for her or has no type of loyalty to her... I mean this woman spent almost 2 years in jail for a man... Only for him to do her wrong and in the worst way... Then when she gets out he is out here still playing games... I mean come on... After all she did for this man to keep him from doing 20 years... And this is how he repays her... really... All Unique asked for in return is Loyalty and not to be lied to... Yet the moment she goes in... All that went out the window... And one would think that once she got out he would give her the world... But nope... He is still out here playing games... But its okay... He has to understand that what he is doing to her is going to hurt so much more when the shoe is on the other foot... Because KARMA is no joke...
Now Beauti... I can't stand at all... Like how can she say she is sisters with Unique and her best friend and she loves her but also at the same time hurt her in the worse way possible... like where they do that at... Then for her to not only stab her friend in the back... But to keep taking the knife out and keep putting it in... Then to really think that just because she is having babies by this man, that he really loves her more... She is so naive to all of this... And the fact that she said she is okay with losing her only friend since childhood for him is crazy... Because like her sister keeps telling her... How she got him is how she is going to lose him... KARMA is not going to allow her to live happily ever after... She is living in a fantasy world in her mind on how things are all going to play out... I can't wait for it all to be snatched from her and her life to go down hill...
Rashad is a whole mess... Like how can he just up and do Unique like that... Then keep throwing it in her face like this like she is dumb... Just because she has to be home by a certain time he makes sure to do all his dirt when he knows she can't leave... Little does he know he is not as smart as he thinks... He is playing a very dangerous game... He has an amazing thing with Unique... One that he will never find anywhere else... Especially not wit Beauti... But he is slowly letting her slip through his hands... And it is all about to blow up in his face... I can't wait for it... Wait a minute... I can't believe he just did this to Unique... After everything he has already done now this... This is the last straw... How could he... Ugh... I am so mad at him right now...
Karma is about to start shaking things up for everyone... But I know Unique will be the one to come out on top... Seeing as how she can't trust those that she loves... Her life is about to change pretty quickly... But once all the hurt settles... I know she will find the happiness that she deserves...

Red Flags

When Karma Hits by Tynessa is a good and amazing read. I’m happy that I’m taking my time to read this book. Ty did a good job. It’s well written and phenomenal page.

Beauti doesn’t know what’s definition of loyalty and be good friends. Beauti is selfish, heartless and disrespectful. She’s not a good friend to Unique. She’s jealous of Unique. Unique needs to pay close attention between Beauti and Shad. Beauti and Shad are acting funny but they’re not completely honest with Unique. Unique needs to find someone treating her as respect and loyal. Unique is a good person but she loyal to the wrong man and friends. Unique is reminded me of myself. I can’t wait to read part two of this series.

Good Read:

loving it need part 2 asap

This book is one of the best books I read and that is saying alot. Beauti need to get her a** beat by Unique because she is a dirty a** friend how is Beauti going to call Unique her sister but is sleeping with her man and she think her an Unique is going to be best if friends lol with a friend like her who need enemies. I hope Rashad and Beauti get what they both have coming to they disloyal a**. Just like Kelsi said Beauti & Rashad isn’t going to have a happy ending. I like Dyce I’m happy Unique is giving him a chance. Can’t wait for part 2 need that like asap 🥰❤️💪🏾

Betrayal To The Max

Unique's first mistake was not loving herself more than her man. To take a 16 year bid and a felony at that! Ain't that much love. And then to be betrayed? Who needs enemies with friends like that? The grimiest!!! She needs to toss Shad to the trash where he belongs and move on, especially after the way this ended. And of course he still wants to have his cake while eating it too. I can't wait for Karma to come busting his door down. I hope the sequel explains how Shad and Beauti began this deceit; I really want the backstory.
Drama filled story. Errors, but I got sucked in.

SPOILER ALERT😩😩😩

I’ve never wanted to write a review so bad in my life. Whew chile!!! Beauti has the audacity of a white woman😩 Like are you serious??? I wanted to smack her after the few pages. Although Kelsi said what needed to be said, I feel like she should’ve told Nique. Especially knowing she was pouring her heart out to Beauti about Shad. I felt so bad every time she confided in her”best friend “ about “her man”! Shad is a P O S… He should’ve just ended things while she was locked up. I can’t wait for their karma cause honey, it’s gonna be a bitch! Dyce has BDE and Unique deserves every ounce of it🥰

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This Was A Great Read. ❤ That Ending Though 🤦🏾‍♀ I Can't Believe Rashad. He Know He Is Foul And So Is Her So Called Best Friend Beauti. I Can't Wait Until Unique Finds Out Who The Other Woman Is. I Know Kelsi Loyalty Is To Her Sister Beauti But Damn. I Hope Unique Leaves Rashad Alone & Be With Ole Boy Dyce. What Rashad Did At The End Was Just Crazy & I Hope He Gets What's Coming To Him & Beauti A** Too. I Love This Series So Far And I Look Forward To Reading The Next Part. ❤❤❤

Boy oooh boy where is my popcorn 🍿 and soda 🥤. Beauti and Rashad just playing Unique and got her out here looking like a love stick fool! That sister Kelsi just as bad and I’m sorry we had to go thru another book before Unique figured out what’s going on! I guessed the author waiting for Beauti to have those kids and they come out looking like his trifling behind SMH!

Unique INHO should have just left him vs. what she did because two wrongs don’t make a right!

I’m just tired of those two deceitful people and Rashad wants to have his cake and eat it too ugh 😑!

Where Is The Loyalty?

Tynessa, lord have mercy I feel so bad for Unique although she brought her situation on herself she still didn't deserve what she's going through now. To say jealousy is real is a understatement. If I had A friend like Beauti I wouldn't need any enemies. I think Shad has some brain damage or something.
This has me 38 hot! They don't really know how karma is coming but baby it is. I pray Unique doesn't let her hurt miss her blessing. Getting ready for part 2🤗🤗🤗

After doing time for Rasheed Unique didn't deserve such betrayal from her so called best friend/sister. What Beautiful and Rah sheer were doing was just low down and dirty, this man wanted his cake and was eating it too he had already slept with the oldest sister Kelli now the family friend and baby sister. After serving her time Unique came home expecting to be happy only to get the shock of her life happy there was someone right around the corner to catch her when she started to unravel, I know Dude is going to be the best man for her and allow her to grow without all the secrets.

Karma is spinning the block!

Rashad was foul and Beauti isn’t a fried at all. The secret the two of them are hiding from Unique is one neither one would be able to explain and come back from. When everything hits the fan, Unique will be hurt, but her backup plan won’t allow her to drown in the madness. This is a book of “u can dish it but can’t take it” and I’m here for it all! I recommend this book of toxicity to anyone that loves drama! Good job

KARMA

Unique did not deserve the hand she’s being dealt right now. She did a bid for Rashad cheating ungrateful arse, only to come home to him to be in a whole relationship with her so called best friend Beauti.

Beauti is sooooo delusional it’s ridiculous. I wonder what her parents are going to say once they find out she’s sleeping with Rashad.

I’m loving me some Dyce. On to book 2

Great Read

Rashaad and Beauti are TRIFLING! Unique deserves nothing but happiness after where she's been and what she's been through. No, she didn't have to be loyal to Rashaad but she did. He should have been a little more appreciative to her and not slept with her so called best friend. Beauti is definitely not a real friend and I can't wait until Unique finds out the truth. Dyce needs to keep pursuing Unique because she deserves a good man! Can't wait to read part two!

Betrayal at its finest

Boy oh boy!!! When all the tea is poured and it comes out about Beauti and Rashad all hee is gonna break loose. Beauti is wrong as hell and I don’t understand how she can know she is wrong but still say she loves her “FRIEND”. Rashad is just as bad wanting both friends and not letting go. In the end I’m going to be team Dyce & Unique 😍😍

Wow

Whew Chile it’s Beautiful audacity for me. How you mad at the woman that was there not only first but the longest. Make that make sense. I ain’t disliked a character in a while as much as I do her. Dyne is that man. I tried to feel something for Shad but it ain’t happening. Outstanding job. I’ve got to know what’s going to happen next.

Part 2 Quick

I wonder snatch Beauti up so bad. She is the reason I don't really have women friends. What she's doing to unique is what my so called friend did to me. Karma is bad motherf$%&* and she don't play. Unique better move on with Dyce and leave Rashad trifling self alone. Part 2 me please. This my first time reading Tynesa book, but trust it won't be my last.

Whew!! That's all I can say

Baby, Rashad and Beauti are truly low down. Unique doesn't deserve what they are doing to her but I'm rooting for her to be happy and get the love from true family, friends, and a boo that she deserves. I'm ready to see what happens in part 2 because it's definitely about to get hectic when secrets start being revealed!!

this story !

Where do I begin a girl in love takes a charge for her man she loves deeply, only to see how the promises he gave her are not adding up. She will find out that those closest to her aren’t worth the loyalty she gives, I can’t wait for that discovery I m anxious to see how she will handle them.
Happy reading

Girl you did that and I can’t wait for the next book. Shad most definitely got Karma and I didn’t feel sorry for him at all. I want Unique to beat Beauti up though because she knew that she was wrong for sleeping with Shad in the first place.

Loving It

I am loving this well written story. The drama and we rats going on with these supposed to be best friends is crazy. To go behind your friend and get pregnant by her man, calling him yours is just too much. That cliffhanger really messed me up. On to part two.
