Book Description:

Audrielle never imagined the next time she came face to face with Cairo, he’d have some news that would literally tear her heart into a million pieces. With nothing else to do but move on, will letting go of Cairo be an easy task for Audri, or will an old flame be there to help her get over it?
Cairo can’t wait for the unholy matrimony agreement he and Alex have to be over. The look on Audris face when she found out that he married his supermodel looking ex, was enough to break the strongest man down. All Cairo wants to do is collect his money, get a divorce, and finally be with the plus size beauty who stole his heart. When lies are still being told, truths are still being hidden, and devious schemes are brought into fruition, can the love Cairo and Audrielle have for each other get past it all or is it too late to try and save something that might not want to be saved?

My Thoughts:

While reading this book, Audrielle’s pregnancy threw me for a loop for a minute. I was expecting her to have one baby, not two! In addition to that, I’m so glad she finally put her mother in her place. I was so irritated while I read through certain parts of Part I because her mother was so insulting and taking jabs at her and she just took it. But Mama Audrielle has finally found her voice. Or rather been pushed to the point to where she had to just tell her mother off in a nice way.

Alex is still as nutty as ever. She just can’t seem to accept that Cairo doesn’t love her. She shouldn’t have ever married him knowing he didn’t truly love her. Money can buy a lot of things but love is not one of them. Someone either loves you or they don’t. Instead, Alex could’ve been spending her time with a man who actually loves her and knows she exists. You can’t make somebody, love you. They either do or they don’t.

It seems as though Cairo and Audrielle can’t catch a break. Just when things are looking up for them, Alex does the unthinkable. She actually kidnaps one of Audrielle and Cairo’s babies! Luckily, she didn’t harm the baby in any way. She did get her just desserts, but knowing Alex she’ll probably try to break out of prison. I recommend this series to any and everyone. I cannot wait until book 3 is in paperback so I can read it, too.

Book Description:

Victoria Brown lost her father four years ago. Her stepmother and her stepsister are bent on making her life miserable. Turning her into a pitiful maid, they force her to live a modern day re-enactment of Cinderella. But they don’t know that where there’s a Cinderella, there’s a Fairy Godmother and a Prince Charming who would do anything to bandage the damage in her life.
When an arrogant new student shows up in class, Victoria hates him at first sight. She seeks to avoid him but finds herself partnering with him in solving a mystery revolving around a ghost. And against her will, sparks fly.
Life takes a turn that rips Victoria off her innocence and places her stepmother as her footstool. Once, she’d wanted a chance for love, but all she wants now is revenge. And not even her Prince Charming can stand in her way.
Will she follow her heart and let love win, or will she follow her head and be a slave of vengeance?

My Thoughts:

Following the passing of Victoria’s father, her step-mother and step-sister no longer feel the need to hide their feelings of hatred toward her. Her tiny frame is evident of the physical abuse she endures. Despite the mistreatment she faces from her stepfamily, she still longs for them to love and accept her. Victoria’s step-sister, Cynthia, does all that she can to try to harm Victoria and cause her to lose her school scholarship. Enter Raheem. He’s the new foreigner at the girls’ school and Cynthia’s dying to sink her claws into him. However, her usual tricks do not work on him. Instead, he has set his sights on Victoria. What begins as a friendship slowly turns to more. This story about young love will make you believe in love once more – if you already didn’t.

This book was beyond being a Cinderella story! I stayed up until 3 am trying to finish it. Once I started reading it, I couldn’t stop. It was the best story I’ve read in a long time. To say Victoria went through a lot would be an understatement. Her step-mother and step-sister both hated her and tried all they could to make her life as miserable as possible both at home and at school. The new boy in school, Raheem, is such a great match for Victoria. After everything that she’s been through with the passing of her mother and father, she deserves more happiness in her life. I was also pleased when I read that Raheem’s father made it back safely to his family. I will be reading the other books as well. And I would also love to see more books featuring Raheem and Victoria in the future.
