September’s Book of the Month: Been About You by A. C. Taylor

Below is Episode 56 and our reviews. It’s full of spoilers.

 

He thought he was marrying the love of his life.
Then betrayal got in the way.
Or was it fate?

On the night before his wedding, Blaise should’ve been at his bachelor party tossing back drinks, smoking cigars, and preparing to walk down the aisle. But, instead, he was barely tipsy, pissed off, and banging on his friend’s door in the middle of the night.

Bree had no idea what was going on when Blaise showed up at her apartment furious and ready to fight the world. At first, she was nervous and worried for everyone involved. Then, her only concern became him. His hurt was evident, and she was determined to be there for him in every way that she could. But that was a lot easier said than done, and from the looks of things, one night wasn’t going to cut it. Little did Bree know, her need to console him would open a door that her heart wasn’t quite ready for. But everything happens for a reason.

See what happens when two friends recognize that their path to true love always included each other. Will they stay on the journey and see how much their love is truly meant to be? Or will a new form of betrayal creep in and ruin everything they believe?

 

 

 

 Bridgette’s Review

This one was so cute. Even though it was a roller coaster ride, I still loved it. I just can’t understand how you can know and be around someone for years and never speak about your true feelings. Granny—I mean, Sugar—didn’t play. She spoke her mind, and you better listen.
Wonderful!

Renee’s Review

Freaking Amazing 👏🏾
A.C. Taylor did her thang. I stayed on the edge of my seat. The setups were so worth the big bangs in this book. My mouth dropped so many times. Even when I knew sh*t might pop off, I didn’t know how. I loved every second. Blaise and Bree are just…😍😍

The love between true friends is always the perfect foundation of a forever relationship. These two knew EVERYTHING about each other but tried to keep it platonic. When the sh*t hits the fan, the things taken for granted are viewed through different lenses.

Both families in this book had DRAMA, but it really showed how trauma can bring people closer. What Blaise’s dad did was unforgivable, and I’d say the same for Bree’s mom. So, these two finding each other was a match made in heaven. They understood each other on a deeper level that will most likely stand the test of time.

Amazing love story.
