She learned early on that it was her responsibility to protect…
Review: Getting Schooled by Christina C. Jones
Renée’s Review Another great read by Christina C. Jones. Book one of the Wright Brothers series is a nice introduction to this family. I started backward and read a later one first. So, it was cool seeing how it all started with Jason and Reese. The thing I love most about Reese & Jason was their chemistry from the jump. The back and forth had me laughing because I could see it. I have a smart mouth so it was real for me. Both are non-traditional students in college which simply means they’re older than the average student. It also means that they have a little more life experience…

May’s Book of the Month
Review: I Think I Might Love You by Christina C. Jones Episode 5 below. Contains Spoilers if you haven’t read this book. Continue to the review for what we thought of I Think I Might Love You.

Review: Rhyme & Reason by Nia Forrester
Rhyme & Reason follows Christopher “Deuce” Scaife Jr. and Zora Diallo after graduation from Penn State. My first introduction of the two were from Nia Forrester’s Snowflake. It was nice to see their relationship at the forefront. And to get a glimpse of what happened with the main characters from Snowflake too. ( I really loved that book!) This story was serious. I say that because the issues these young adults deal with are ones that people with many years under their belt would struggle with too. Zora wanted to do the right thing when it came to her culture or religion being a Muslim. She made decisions with…

It was a tough but necessary decision to split from a great guy to find the right one. Yazlyn wanted to be a wife and all that it stood for. Kaalan was a hot head with a foul mouth and a love for bedding women. But after a year hiatus in Jamaica,…
April’s Book of the Month
Review: He Who Is A Lover by Love Belvin He Who Is a Lover Falling in love wasn’t the goal. In fact, I didn’t think it was possible. That was until Bilan Asad-Yasin turned out to be more than I anticipated when I finally decided to explore her that early spring evening. Those curvy thighs, chiseled cheekbones, auburn freckles, powerful resilience, and endless intellect. She was a bad decision, this I knew. She’d be a great risk, this I understood. I was an Ellis man, she’d eventually learn. And she did. That’s when she ran, attempted to escape a world she’d soon have to learn to navigate and survive. …
