Touchy and Tacky

I actually liked the story but I did not need the homophobis, and transphobia. I probably won't listen to this author again.

Wonderful story. From start to finish.!!!

Loved it. listened to it twice. I am about to replay for a third time. I felt like I was curled up watching a great film. I live the twists and turns and unexpected finish. Very entertaining. Light hearted. The author is an excellent story teller. And the narrator is a perfect match for bringing it to life! Love love looooovvee!

Atlanta Love

This story was such a "reality " check for all ages and those who love, love. Living in Atlanta, I could really relate to the story and landmarks, as well as the hbcu insight which was also dope. I love the climax in this story and the reality of every chapter. Such a Beautiful ending and story that many of us can relate to in one way or another. Keep writing! Job well done, awesome narrator.
