What a read! If you've read any of Adrienne Thompson's novels before, you know that she just doesn't do sweet, light-hearted reads. She takes her characters through some things, and we, the readers can't help but strap ourselves in and get ready for the ride. I truly felt like I was on an emotional roller coaster ride while reading this book.  I gasped, got mad, then anxious, then teary-eyed.  I read it at the hair salon and my stylist kept looking at me like I was crazy, lol.In this book, we get yet another look at blues singer, Bobbi. Bobbi has a lot of issues, and instead of being sympathetic to her, I must confess that she irritated the heck out of me. She just got on my nerves. I kept thinking she was so blessed, why can't she just settle down and enjoy her life? But her demons were pretty strong (and that's not this author's style). Now, I've loved Reggie since the first book, but when the story takes a turn and things get crazy, I was super confused and started giving the author a mental side eye and screaming, no, not Reggie! I'm so glad this book was not that long, cause when the suspense kicked in, it kicked ALL the way in, and I had to know how things would be resolved.Bobbi's niece Tomeka also had a storyline which was interesting. I rolled my eyes so hard every time Tomeka got a letter from Abraham, thinking he was running game on her, and was completely shocked with the way things unfolded with those two. We were left with a bit of a cliffhanger, so I'm hopeful that we'll get a follow-up story on them. I can't even begin to imagine what Ms. Thompson is gonna take them through.Another good read! Keep up the good work!
