I, like other readers thought the book started off slow. As a matter of fact it took me several days to get past the first section. Once it began though I thought it had good potential. With the introduction of Melanie and Cynthia, who both are trying to keep Wellington away from Jada, the story seemed to pick up. HOWEVER I was extremely disappointed with the story after Wellington was so EASILY seduced by Melanie. Without giving too much away the book starts off slow - you don't really feel a close connecton w/the characters...it picks up... then it just gets ridiculous and extremely soapoperaish. It would have been better if Wellington was stronger. It was like the Wellington we were introduced to was completely different to the Wellington in the mid and end of the book. Melanie's character was also unbelievable to me. When Melanie was introduced I thought she could be a believable man stealin skank but then she just got out of control way beyond manipulative ...it's like she was bi-polor and manic depressive to the extreme. The way her relationship took off w/ Wellington was yet anther unrealstic aspectof the novel. Overall, I felt like there were too many twists and turns that weren't portrayed on a true human relatable level.......in other words.......this could never happen!

I was confused in the first couple of chapters, then the convoluted story about Wellington and Jazzmyne, the typos, and that ridiculous stuff at the end about finding your soulmate - I was not impressed with this story at all. Morrison seemed to be more concerned with the moments of intimacy, which were quite graphic to me. There is nothing new here, just the same old mumbo jumbo that everybody and their mother seems to be publishing these days. Maybe I'll read the follow-up books to see where this goes and if they get any better

Im not sure how I feel about this novel???
It started out entirely to slow and with underdeveloped characters popping up every second it was very easy to get lost in the story. Like other reviews I would have to agree that the plot was very UNREALISTIC. If Wellington loved Diamond aka Jada so much how come he let go so easily & was so easily manipulated by everyone in his life. I mean his character annoyed the hell out of me not to mention his evil moms Cynthia and mistress Melanie.
Honestly I only picked up a Mary B. Morrison novel because she was showcased on a TV1 documentary. I wouldn't recommend this novel to readers who enjoy juicy captivating story lines because this dose not have 1.
