Story: GOODIntimacy Level: VERY GOODEnjoyment: GOODLength: 4226 kindleWow, by viewing the cover of this book, I didn't expect to enjoy it. This book is titled, A Date With Destiny, however, I think it should have been titled, Karma, Caught up, All that Glitter Isn't Gold, or even, W.T.F, because of everything that happen within the story.The story starts with Destiny waiting on a blind date, and once  that date took place, things start to happen that had a domino effect. Destiny's previous relationship mold her into the person she currently is. Her last boyfriend cheated on her and did something also that was unforgivable. Now she's met Hakim, a hot director who does music videos. She then meets Ace, a new and hot rapper on the music scene. What happens from one guy to the next takes Destiny through hurt, drama, shame, pain, lost and denial. Some of the decisions Destiny made was unbelievable to me, but I also understood why.  Being that she is a stylist for celebrities, when her life transitions her to the music industry and she becomes a singer and gets more caught up, it was sad to see the path she took. Bet yet again, through hurt comes joy in the morning. I'm also glad to see who she ends up with in the end. I thought their ending was worth it and sweet. Both Hakim and Ace, definitely kept you wondering who is the right person for her. But half way through, true colors starts to show and you knew whose intentions were right. I also liked that the author uses singers like, Jill Scott along with others, to pick a song to select the moods the characters were in at certain scenes in the book. It made me want to go straight to my itunes and start playing.This is my second book by the author and it definitely won't be my last. By reading this author's work, I like how you think the story would stay on course, but the author throws in little twist and turns that does make you wonder if things will go as plan.
