Publisher's summary

Best-selling author Niobia Bryant draws enthusiastic praise from fans and critics alike for her unique brand of contemporary urban fiction. In The Hot Spot, 40-something Zaria Ali is diving back into the dating pool following the meltdown of her 21-year marriage. She’s got her eyes and her heart set on Kaleb Strong, but at 26, is he too young for her? Kaleb is looking to settle down with the right woman - and he’s about to show Zaria that age is nothing but a number.

Really Cute

Very rarely am I disappointed with Niobia Bryant. Her books normally hit the spot (no pun intended). This was no different.

Super cute couple, minimal drama and happy ending... what more could you ask for.

Another great story....Niobia

What made the experience of listening to The Hot Spot the most enjoyable?

We all heard this story before yet this was not that picture perfect scene like in the movies...this is how it really goes down in really life.

What did you like best about this story?

When she realize how much really loves him and excepts the fact that there is nothing wrong with trying it again.

Any additional comments?

It's no surprise how I feel about this author and as always I'm never disappointed with anything Niobia Bryant does. I'm a forever fan of here work, regardless the name she chooses to write under.

May December

I found this story a bit lacking, and Zuri annoyed me a little more than I would’ve liked. I liked Kalen, but he was kind of annoying too. The narration was good.

Great Story

I really enjoyed this book. The Strong family values were very apparent and it was great to see this couple go through struggles and come out on top.

Beautiful Love Story

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, It just was a good book to me and I have already told my friends to get it.

What other book might you compare The Hot Spot to and why?

Maybe pleasure seekers by rochelle alers. The reason why I said that was because it just ended pretty good and it had some positive things going on. This was more real life to me too. I could understand and feel the characters all had some issues but this was on the positive side of life.

What about Shari Peele’s performance did you like?

Shari Peele was very good and I like her characters. She made the characters come to life and they all had their own voice.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I laughed more but most of all I smiled alot. I love the family bond in this book.
