Legend is a musician, breaking free of his childhood group after years together. Simone is his massage therapist he's been crushing on since they were teens. When Simone's long-term relationship is on the rocks and she gets a "hall pass" to experience someone else for the first time, Legend wants to be that someone. But he doesn't want to let go, and he's hoping she won't either.
This story was a great one, from beginning to end. There was some drama, but it was timed and layered, and served to give the characters depth. The things happening in the background added to the nuance, and drove our love interests together, which means the vehicle worked in the right way. I loved Simone and Legend's chemistry, they way they couldn't get enough of one another, the way they protected each other. Legend was determined to show Simone what real love looked like, and though hesitant, she knew Legend was different.
I knew her ex was on bullshit, lol. From the first suggestion--nothing he did surprised me, but I was glad to have Simone see the light. Her sister was cringey at the beginning, my goodness. I'm glad she turned it around. Legend's background noise with his bandmates served to give him the complexity of a man on the verge of a new life, while the old one nips at his heels. I loved the way he stood on business and was determined to show his growth, but could also remind you where he came from. Great story.

This is a must-read! Don't walk! Run to grab this one.
Legend is the man! The way he shows up and shows out for Simone is great throughout the entire book.
Simone is very relatable! She's a great sister, daughter, gf, and friend!
The supporting characters will keep you entertained as well!

This is my second read by this author, but by far my favorite. Overall it was good story and definitely kept my interest. It had some good pacing, character/ relationship development. Everyone got what they deserved for the most part. Although some things felt rushed to a happy ending. Like Eden and Teddy. Even the Nitra/ Owen thing left some gaps, like where did the evidence come from. I definitely finished this with a few “what was the point of that moments”? For example: the DNA test. Why enter that into the storyline? Or Nori being so desperate for a man…enters Twan and then no more mention of him!
Again overall, good.

Simone and Legend
There was a lot of drama and conflict happening around these main characters. It didn’t seem authentic. I love the concept of their friendship to lovers trope, but I do wish she would have resolved her situation prior to Legend. Wiz definitely became unhinged and out of character. Riah was annoying and ridiculous in her stance. This was an okay read.

good read.
Good read. I’m happy it ended well. Simone was almost on my last nerve. And her sister surely was!! I do wish we had an ending that let us know of the assistant came back. Hopefully Owen got some real time in jail. And that FN go to jail for revenge porn
