Publisher's summary

Talented author Dakota Bibbs has deemed herself unlucky in love. She only dreams of experiencing a connection with a man similar to the ones she writes about in her novels. After ending a tumultuous five-year relationship, Dakota has decided to focus on herself and her blossoming business for the time being. Love will just have to wait. Other than dealing with her worrisome ex, things are going well for her.

Then on cue, Giannis Williams enters her life. A boss in his own right, Giannis possesses just the right amount of hood, a double dose of sexy, and a dash of crazy. He could be her perfect match if she were looking, but allowing her heart time to heal is her priority. Giannis, however, is persistent by nature and doesn't plan to let up until he has Dakota by his side.

Breelyn Waiters seems to have found herself in the same boat as her cousin Dakota, and she is attempting to get her life back after weaning herself off her most painful addiction - David Parrish. After being away for an entire year, Breelyn returns to Dallas to reunite with her family. She plans to steer clear of the man she once thought would own her heart forever. It turns out she was wrong about that, because DeMario Taylor is proof positive that David is no longer the only man Breelyn's heart will beat for.

Watching over Dakota and Breelyn is Elijah "Rah" Waiters, a complicated man with a demeanor only those close to him can understand. He will tolerate a lot but coming for his family isn't one of them. Entering a new phase in life, Rah senses something is missing. He contemplates letting love in for the first time, but something is holding him back.

Join this closeknit group as they block bitter exes, confront fake friends, and tackle fear of the unknown, all while experiencing true love on a whole new level.

Loved

Loved it. If you are into Black Love that features Boss females with just a little bit of ratchet in them and lovable thugs then this is a must read. Not to give anything away but when love turns sour and people dont know how or refuse to let go and move on all kinds of crazy things can happen. I can't wait to start the sequel.

Great book!

Back to Life Again is the second book after this one. It’s not included with audible escape but still worth the credit.

Love After Heartbreak

Overall this was a pretty good book. The story line was decent. I like that the author allowed us to read from multiple characters perspectives. It's always nice to see what other people are thinking in certain situations and moments. I'm interested to know what will happen in the next book. I already downloaded on my kindle app.

Ok

I really liked this book and would recommend it .It had a great storyline and sexual storylines. I would have given it 5 stars if the author hadn't used God's name in vain. I wish this book was a movie or TV show.

I can't wait to hear the 2nd part of the series.

It was okay

This is something to listen to when you just want to throw something on. But the storyline was ehh. Very predictable. I didn’t like the pace of the story— it moved fast. No suspense. You didn’t really get to see love stories evolve organically. One day everyone was just madly in love lol. I finished the book, and even though it’s a cliffhanger, I’m not interested in the second one.

Save your money and time!

Couldn’t finish listening to this. Nothing about these characters made sense. The narration was bad because she never changed her voice so it was very confusing. Read other books by this author that were good, so I assumed this would be similar.

Ok

I like the story but not the Narrator, i got confused it was the “mans” part cause she never changed her voice or anything it’s like she just reading. I think I would like it more if I just bought the book.
