Book Review
King and Samira had a toxic relationship that was front and center. Samira funded King's dream to be in the music producer. She allowed him to cheat, which resulted in a baby being born. Her response to the cheating was to cheat herself with someone he knew and to remove her financial support from him (temporarily). I liked that this story, sadly, resembled real life for some. Any of us who suffer from a bout of low self-esteem or unrealistic expectations of our place or our importance in someone's life could fall victim to this level of toxicity. The story did move quickly and the drama kept coming. It did not always make sense to me. The plus also was that Nicole Small as a narrator and the audio production were both good. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants high drama. You can get your copy here and support the author by leaving a review. |
