“Sometimes you have to put faith and trust in the unknown to receive your blessing.”

Kimberly Brown, ma’am what an amazing book. I loved everything about Jacob and Kachelle’s love story. At this point sign me up for Arranged Hearts. I love how they each prayed for their partner to be one day with so much intention, power and belief behind their words. Not only that but also their actions leading up to the moment Arranged Hearts found them their person. From the moment they met it was magical. They were determined to make this work and shut out that outside noise. Ain’t nothing like a praying person and y’all being able to pray together. 

Absolutely adored their professions as well. You know we love black top tier professionals here. It was really cute how both of their professions linked them with one thing in common (you’ll see when you read the book. Got to give a shoutout to Kachelle’s best friend and Jacob’s sister. They are some true riders and funny as hell. Let’s not forget the spice 🥵. Honey they were giving it to each other ♥️. I love me some black love.
