Review: Damn Selange
Rating: 5 out of 5

In my review of "Awakening" I said I was not feeling Selange and she needed to redeem herself.Boy, did she do just that! Chica is a damn rider for her family that's for sure. Before her betrayal Selange was my girl and I adored her so her actions in this book really softened my heart to her again. She got her act together, she learned her lesson and she has grown from her experience. She womaned up through this book and took responsibility. I like that she let Ariana slap her too, lol.In defense to a reviewer who said Ariana was behaving childish, I can understand where Ariana was coming from. I think she was actually pretty behaved considering everything because I would have acted an ass. At first I thought the kidnapping was kind of random but it allowed the characters to put aside their hatred and build solid relationships on a foundation that was shattered. They needed this kidnapping to bond, everyone did. When Selange and Ariana got together and took out those men I was cheering my butt off and clapping. And can I just say that when it comes to protecting her family Selange is THAT B**** and she's not taking no prisoners? Good girl 'cause that's just how it has to be sometimes.I'm glad we were able to see just how deep Selange's love for Alfonzo right through the eyes of Ariana. She acknowledged it and that was good. I am rooting for Nico and Ariana, I like them together. I also enjoy Shanda and Geo.I also like the character of Matteo he did not fall to the backdrop he really stands out for me and him and Amelda are good.And poor Alberti! I cared for the old gangster!I don't know if it was this book or another one but I teared up when Alfonzo was remembering him and Vincent and when he fell asleep during the shoot out. Awww Vincent, we are still thinking about you honey!
