I’m grateful to Anise Starre to have been chosen as an ARC ready for yet another one of her awesome books. I love romance but I especially love romance where black women are loved on and treated well. Eliott was representative of a large portion of black women who give their all and usually taken advantage of by those they give to. She was ambitious, hard-working, but also super hard on herself which I could relate to.

I also enjoyed seeing Dane’s development throughout the story. He’s also a great example of black men who have been hurt and seem to write off their chances of finding love ever again, resulting in them just having fun with women but never settling. He was confident and assertive without it coming off as being asshole. His banter with everyone was also light and fun.

This is a storyline that I’ve never seen in another book before also which is fresh. Another great book by Anise down.
