About this listen

Life is flipped upside down for Cheyenne Haney when her fairytale-like relationship of 5 years suddenly ends the day her boyfriend finally proposes to her. She’s heartbroken and storms out of the apartment seeing nothing but red. She’s so distracted that she doesn’t see the car hurling toward her. Right before the worst outcome could happen, she’s pulled away just in time by a mysterious, yet gorgeous person who introduces themself as Harley.

Harley Dunn is every bit of cool, funny, and gorgeous. As a beloved member of the local WNBA team, the Baton Rouge Bayou it’s easy to see how outgoing she is. She loves to joke and have fun, but when it comes to relationships, she’s never had much luck. That is until she crosses paths with Cheyenne again at one of her basketball games.

After some mild flirting on both of their parts, Cheyenne and Harley begin a steamy friends-with-benefits relationship that was meant to be just that. However, when they start catching feelings for one another, things start to get a bit complicated. From annoying exes to traumatic past experiences to unwanted surprises, will their relationship be able to withstand the chaos? Or will their worst fears of heartbreak be reinforced?

This was a really great book. I could see my lesbian self in it, and that means a lot to me when it comes to reading books.

Great story telling.

Ok so I did love the book but I felt at times or all the times the author was getting too cared away with the hood slang hip vernacular. I enjoyed that they were black characters and sounded as such but I felt like she was trying a little too hard to show they were black characters. Only not dislike but gripe. Otherwise great book can’t wait to try more.

Loved it but…

If this was written for teenagers then it’s perfect but I feel like it was flat and written like a lesbian wattpad story.

Flat but entertaining

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Vobulary was very basic and repetitive. No real substance or depth. It felt like the plot was just there to support the sex sences.

Lesbian Romance

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

If you are looking for a tale that masks lust for live this is for you. The beginning was so promising but the story line fell flat with no real development into the true creation of a relationship beyond sex.

Sooo disappointed
