This book was so freaking good! I was sad, happy, mad, I swooned and I laughed... A LOT! I loved this story and it's progression and the characters and their development. This story had a twist I did not see coming at all! Marley the fmc, to me Marley was just cool and easy. She gave me the vibes of what I think So Lange Knowles personality would be...just chill. But Czar, my man, my man, my man! I loved Czar from the word go. I loved the way he came for Marley. He knew he wanted her and he stopped at nothing until he got her. I loved his character. He's a fierce protector of the things and ppl he loves bc of his childhood and I kinda hated that for him but it did shape him beautifully. Loved Harper, Romeo, Nova, Sammy, Biggie, Shortie, Pooh and Uncle Goose. I'm still undecided on my feelings for Jaxon. I understand what happened but I just feel like there really was something more with him and Pam. And Pam, hated her. She was awful. Downright awful to Marley. Wasn't the best to Harper either but she tolerated Harper more and I wish that would've been elaborated on a little more. Why the favoritism if you can even call it that? Bc she did Marley so bad you'd think Marley somehow wronged her. Also didn't like Cain. I felt bad for Ada bc she was young and naive and just wanted to be a good mom and protect her baby but she unknowingly created a trauma bond with Czar and that burden was heavy on them both. Now I will say I was mad when Marley went back to Benny. That was just dumb to me. The man never changed. And she was back in a position she should've never been in. I couldn't and wouldn't go back to a past love. That ship has sailed and I habe mourned the loss.
