Recently "RUNAWAY GIRLS" was recommended to me and I have to say that I'm glad it was. The series is wonderfully emotion and drama rich with superb writing, strong dialogue, authentic characters that pull at your heartstrings and plots that serious suck you in. Lexie Ray has a gift for writing that is vivid with imagery and vibrantly engaging, making each of the 5 novels come to life in a fantastic way.What I liked about the series was that every one of the women's stories was distinctive, engaging and thoroughly satisfying... from Cocoa's story of falling in love with Liam Henry only to have her past threaten her happiness to Shimmy's struggles to get her life (and her young son) back after a teenage pregnancy sends her life down a road she never imagined. The stories are gripping intensely entertaining, filled with a lot of heart and a wealth of drama that never fails to keep you eagerly flipping to the next page.Each of the novels in the series really can be read as a stand alone novel, but when read together they really bring the world of Mama’s Nightclub into focus with excellent world-building and intrinsically relatable characters that make you feel invested in their lives. Overall, I had such a wonderful time reading the series and for the price I was absolutely blown away by how much of a deal I got for the huge series. I would definitely recommend the "Runaway Girls" box set to other readers looking for an entertaining, engaging and well-written series to sink their teeth into.
