Ashley and jaquavis take you on a emotional journey with the lovable ashai and liberty. True soul mates who despite all their struggles and hardship find their way back to each other. Liberty has a life you couldnt even imagine while ashai gets a say out by a twist of faith. Only to find each other again and live him happiness before possibly getting separated again

I really enjoyed this book. I have alreay ordered the 2nd one is the series but dont want to begin reading it until I order the 3rd one in the series.

I would have given it four stars because although the story line was a bit depressing it was well written and a page turner. However, as a brown skin black woman-as Im sure a lot of their readers are- I found it very offensive w/the authors incessant obsession w/subtly promoting lighter skin or mixed characters as better looking or in a better light than dark or brown skin characters. Liberty one of the main protaganists was held in high esteem for her looks-as it was noted because she was a light skin African and later noted had white genetic make up mixed in there. They also HAD to let us know that another one of the main female characters who was lauded for her beauty had beautiful locs but not the right texture for it. What this does is let us know she doesnt have full on kinky hair so subtly telling us she has some mixed heritage in there as well. Ah ha-no wonder shes beautiful! Both of the most beautiful women in the brothel were not black at all. On the flip side, I can only recall one brown skin woman noted in the book-and she was never described as being pretty but was shamefully dismissed by both men she was in contact with. Also, two dark skin men who were I believe described as being black as tar or something to that effect were in short just evil. As black people we have to be diligent in actively rejecting these subtle or direct notions that somehow if youre mixed youre beautiful and if you just regular ol black folk your beauty is not worth mentioning-if its even believed to be there. It is important. Whether this was intentional or not it still has the same effect-black is not beautiful. And I actively reject it out loud! And its even worse when it comes from our own. They have to be aware of it too. I wont be reading the other two simply because I dont want to unconciously internalize any of that nonsense! Thats more important to me than a decent read.

Murderville was a very good book. It was different from what i expected from the duo but i must say they went in and did a hell of a job. This book takes you thru all types of ups and downs. I enjoyed being able to pin out things from other books like the Cartel, i didnt put it together at first but the title is a clue and also the murder mamas made an apperance in this book which means there still at it well the 2 that were left any way. This is a classic love story that leaves you thirsty to be loved the way shai loved liberty. Enjoy.....

Purchased this book when it came out but never read it until now. This is a must read. Cant wait to read part 2. As usual yall keep up the good work.

Its was A good book but why yall had to kill ashai like I dont like that he got unfinished business

Book was awesome.....I love romantic books but this added an entire different level to the word AWESOME! Youll did youll thing in this....now Im about to start the second book of the trilogy.

They did it again.. This book was a page turner from first page. I love the story but sad how it ended. If your looking for a great book to read this is it. Also the whole Cartel series. This book will have you sitting in complete shock waiting to find out what happens next and wondering how and why will it happen. It also teaches you the real meaning of love and true loyalty while there are people out in this cold world to take everything from you with all of their soul. Even the strongest of wolves have one weakness that will have them do things they normally wouldnt do without thinking it out before reacting. I love this book. The Authors are fabulous with the gift they have to write these books.

My husband didnt like what the book was about. It disrturbed him. But it was delivered in good time. I just think its not for men.

As with every book that I have read by this author, I was not disappointed. This is another series that stems from the Cartel, which was excellent. Enjoyed and cant wait to read two.
