Please Don't Go, Girl by Naima Simone

emotional funny hopeful inspiring lighthearted reflective fast-paced

4.25

This was a really quick read, only 9 chapters but, it had a lot of story.

This is my second book by Naima Simone and I can't believe I haven't read her work before. 

Please Don't Go, Girl is such a sweet, heartstrings puller, steamy and spicy with such delicious sexual tension, and enough comedic relief that it felt like a full-length novel. And yet, I still wish it had been longer because I wasn't ready to be done with Lina or Kade. 

This book was book 3 in Naima's Love on the Radio series and I have to say it read like a standalone. 

I loved the instant chemistry between Lina and Kade. The way the author showed it to me the reader.  And though at first, I wasn't convinced because these two made-for-each-other idiots hadn't said much to each other, the tension and vibes were there quickly. 

I wish we had delved a little bit more into the characters as individuals, more so Lina than Kade, because while the ending was wonderful it also felt unfinished for me. After all, there is still so much of Lina that is left unanswered for me. We saw where Kade comes from, what his past was, and what the conflict's beginning was. However, with Lina I don't feel like we got to the core of who she was we stayed barely below the surface and for that, this book is a 4.25 read. It was a great read but it could have given me more, I feel like I became invested in a character that I didn't get to know wholly. 

I hope an extended epilogue is given because I want more of these two.
