Sweet Spot

I enjoyed the story of forgiveness and finding lasting love. I would love more books from this author.

Great story from beginning to end...

I Loved the fact that this was a well rounded story. It had all the elements of a Beautiful Boy meets Girl Love Story

Short but Oh So Sweet

Very inspirational to know there’s love after death of a loved one. We must celebrate the person not morn their passing because memories never die they live on in the living.

Loved it

This author gives great black love stories. And when I tell you the narrator Wesleigh Shioban is a never miss. You are guaranteed to feel whatever her voice delivers.

Sweet

This was a sweet story. I loved Amara and Khalil. We all need a friend like Casey. Glad Amara found happiness. Narrator was great.

Emotional and Sweet

This is my first book by Tay Mo’nae. This touching yet emotional story demonstrates how two people dealt with grief was very sweet! Although their approaches were different when grieving the loss of their loved ones, they were able to provide support and solace in each other during stressful circumstances with honesty, compassion and understanding. The message to me stressed that if you’re able to work through the storms that life brings your way, you can do anything together!! I loved the resilience of both the hero and heroine. Great message! Wesleigh Siobhan and Leon Nixon’s performance were stellar!! I felt a wide range of emotions throughout the storyline!! I look forward to more from this author!

Cute story

Cute story. Not really a fan of the “friends to lovers” trope but it was cute nonetheless. I like the author and have read other books from her, this is one of my least favorites. I know one thing though… these characters lips will NOT go dry as much as they licked them throughout the story. Lol I felt that comment was a little overused. But overall great narration, cute story, and I felt the author handled dealing with the loss of a parent pretty well.

Really good story

This was a really good friends to lovers story. I enjoyed how he was able to be there for her and how she discovered his feelings that she had been missing the whole time.

This Was A Really Cute Story

This was a cute story....I actually love the dynamic between Khalil & Amara being best friends that slowly fall in love with one another....I appreciated the way he anticipated all of her needs. I also completely understood her not wanting to ruin their friendship with the romantic relationship didn't work. But, I felt that they simply needed to talk to one another....it funny to me how people on the outside of a situation have a much better view than those that are involved. I love how Kacy & Amara sisterhood played an integral part of each others lives. It was beautiful to see how both Kacy & Khalil recognized Amara slipping into a depression and they did what the could to aide her. I really enjoyed the emotional journey we went on as reader/listeners...I wished we could have experienced more of the budding relationship between Amara & Marvin (Her Father)....I love how the relationship between all of the friends (both men & women) and how they got together to hang out socially.....this story really makes me excited to see what's coming next in the Maple Hill Story. OK...So Y'all know I loved Wesleigh's narration/acting ability, BUT, Leon Nixon not so much...I understood that we were suppose to go on an emotional ride, but all of his narration just sounded sad to me...even the parts they were suppose to be happy. **For Me Wesleigh To The Rescue**

Cute Story!

This was a cute story by new to me author, Tay Mo'nae. I've always been a sucker for a friends to lovers trope and this was good. Now, Amari did annoy me a bit when she kept pushing Khalil away and being so naive. Like, how are you still questioning his feelings after he ate your "cupcake"? Like, really? I'm just glad Kacie (her bff) talked some sense into her! After she realized her true feelings and gave Khalil a chance, the story just flowed. I can't wait for the next stories from Maple Hill...Kacie needs her story and HEA! Narration was great too! Leon Nixon did his thing as Khalil, but Wesleigh Siobhan killed it! I think I'm in love with her male voice!
