About this listen
As Layla sits on the plane, she tries hard to hold herself together. Bullets ripping through flesh, horrifying screams from the war, and seeing the look on Tess' face as the bullet ripped through her chests played over and over in her mind. With Bless and the rest of the Teflon divas now dead, Layla is now free to live out her own destiny. Going back home to rekindle things with Damou, Layla soon learns that her life as a Teflon diva is far from being over.

Story
Faith Newsome has it all: a loving husband, beautiful daughter, and a stable life as the owner of a thriving shoe boutique in Washington, DC. Yet a part of her feels as if she’s not who she seems to be, as if she’s living a lie. When Faith gets kidnapped by a group of goons while walking to her car, she suddenly remembers who she is - not the suburban wife and mother whom she convinced herself to be, but Champagne, the daughter of one of the most ruthless killers and drug dealers in New York City who went missing and was presumed dead years prior.

Story
A serial killer is on the loose in the city of Detroit, breaking into people's homes and killing their entire family, even their pets, just for laughs. Now he’s even going as far as kidnapping women, but the police are showing little to no interest in the case because it’s minority low- and middle-class families. With no one to stop him, anyone could be the next victim--even you! But whatever you do, don’t scream because the screaming brings him joy.

"Standing here in front of you today, sharing my story - this wasn’t supposed to be my reality. There’s not a day that goes by that I don’t ask myself: What could I have done different? Was there anything I could have done to prevent this heartache; to prevent this tragedy? And regardless of every possible scenario I came up with, there was always a way around it,” Yvonne said as she wiped tears from her eyes and composed herself. “I shouldn’t be standing before you today. I shouldn’t feel this pain; but because this is now my reality, I’m sharing my story with you.”

Law grew up in the trenches. Hustling since the age of 12, his focus was making life better for his mother and brother. Finding intimate love was never a priority because he didn’t have many examples of that around him. Instead, he was taught to focus on getting money, not finding the one. Yet upon seeing her, Zuri pulled something out of Law that was foreign to him. Though he had been with his girlfriend, Whitney, for a long, exhausting decade, he had never experienced a woman taking his heart so mercilessly.

Layla thinks she is the last Teflon Diva, and quickly finds out she is not. I kind of felt sorry for her. She lost or thought she lost everyone she loved. She created her own squad and TESS is back and tries to take over! She envied Tess so much she wanted to be her and wanted her story. I think she went into shock when she realized Damou was married with kids! After she waited on him for 5 years. This book introduces new characters and old one come back. This book was good, but I really had too many distractions to really get into it. I kept having to replay chapters because of my distractions then I got lost but the parts I remember this book was good as well. So now on to the last book!
