Desperation.

Not a phenomenon Tempest could typically claim, but certainly the catalyst for where she’s landed. Not in peril, or pain, but in dire need of the very normalcy she’s often emulated, but never been able to obtain.

Now...there’s nothing in her way, except all those years of being everything except what she now has to become.

Herself.

As soon as she figures out who that is.

I loved the narrator (Eboni Flowers). Christina C. Jones's stories are always engaging and flawless. Read the entire series if possible.

An overall heart-warming story of a woman letting go of her past and finding her true self. An amazing read.

Didn’t know how I would like this story; wasn’t familiar with the narrator, turns out to be good. The storyline was good, but wish it would have gotten a little more into the why from her past. Narrator did a good job with the characters. Some of the issues were real life.

I loved Tempest and her reinvention in ebook/paperback, and finally decided to try the studio version! I really enjoyed that this was completely from her point of view as well. It helped to get a clear understanding of this journey into normalcy for her. My only qualm was the weird southern accents for nearly all of the women. Afaik, The Heights isn’t in the south? I’ve read every single book that takes place there and it give me Midwestern vibes over anything else? But anyways, other than that, this was perfect. I can definitely see myself listening to it again soon.

I didn’t know if I would like this, but I loved it!!! CCJ knows how to build relationships in a natural and exciting way. Ready to read the next in the series.

Enjoyable— another connection to the Heights

Tempest’s story was heartwarming, raw, sweet and steamy…in the best way. I’m so glad the the brilliant pen of CCJ blessed us with a furtherance of the Rose and Thorn saga. Great story. And the single POV was wonderful with amazing narration by Eboni Flowers. Bravo all around👏🏽👏🏽

I loved this book! CCJ you have done it again...Oh and Eboni you are slowly becoming my absolute favorite voice to hear narrating great books. This was an amazing listen and loved the drop ins of characters from other stories (Ante Up & Deuces Wild).

Phenomenal

Loved It!!

This book for me told the story of getting out of your own way. How two people that are flawed share similar flaws. Also navigating from the past to engaging in life.

Loved the story
