About this listen
Have you ever loved someone so much that it hurt?
I have.
Have you ever cherished the pain because you knew the kind you'd face without them would be way too unbearable?
That's me.
To young Neeka Perry, Denny is one thing. In the streets, he's a whole other entity. She was brave enough to love both sides, upside down, all around, and back again.
He provided her with all a girl could believe she dreamed of—security, desire, and, most enviably, genuine love, all wrapped up in gold and diamonds.
He removed her far from the course of her ordinary college girl lifestyle and swept her into his world of whimsical madness.
For this and more, her love went beyond loyalty. She was devout… devout to him.
But is there such a thing as too much passion? Can you love someone too much?
And when you realize the person you love, and the person everyone fears, can also be the one everyone loves, and you can one day soon fear, who will save you?
Especially when the person you need saving from is yourself?
Stop right there. I don't want to be saved.
I've shackled myself to him with love. And I swallowed the key.
I'm in this for the long run.
I am devout.

Greer, also known as G, has been blessed with beauty, an independent mindset, and an alluring aura that hypnotizes men. However, she has never relied on a man to take care of her; she prefers to secure her own bag. As a young boss, all the D-boys are drawn to her, but making money is the only thing on her mind. Jahi, Greer's first love, has taught her all about heartbreak, which leads to the couple taking a break. But with all the women Jahi can have due to his good looks, money, and status, the one woman he can't get over is Greer.

When souls are tied, it's never goodbye. A boy I was that summer evening I met you, pulling your belongings out of the truck and into your new home. I knew it was love then. A whole man I was the day that you met me at the altar and agreed to love me until death do us part. A shell of a man I've become since it did, unable to move on, move forward, or progress in any way until I discovered that not even death was permanent enough to keep us apart. A better man I'm destined to be, knowing that, at some capacity, you're still with me. Our love is one that never dies.

Ryder, Garrett, Kenzo, and Diesel - The Vipers. Their deals are as sordid as their business, and their reputation is enough to bring a grown man to his knees, forcing him to beg for mercy. They are not people you mess with, yet my dad did. The old man ran up a debt with them and then sold me to cover his losses. Yes, sold me. They own me now. I’m theirs in every sense of the word. But I’ve never been meek and compliant.

Morae Brehon!!!!
I will admit, I was more excited to hear Winston bring Denny to life in my anticipation of this audio release. imagine my surprise when Ms. Morae Brehon absolutely bodied this entire performance! She brought this stories to life in such an amazing way. Now don't get me wrong, WJ ain't no slouch, He definitely did his thing, but fir some reason, I didn't remember Ty having so many POV's in book 1.
Hearing this story play out touched me in such a different way than when I read it. Even though I knew what to expect, these narrators helped make the story fresh. They both did a brilliant job. Takerra Allen never misses and every story is highly recommended by me.
Standing Ovation!!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

HOT HOT HOT
This book was good from beginning to the end. The narrators were awesome, the storyline was great. At first I thought he was just obsessed with her but to find out it was that and more to the point of mental disorder. I think she had issues as well, like the the doctor said she was waiting for her daddy to approve knowing that he wouldn't. So that was a way for her to hold things off with the wedding. I really loved the drama between friends and everyday life of a drug king and that was craaaaaazzzzzzy. Can't wait to see what the next book brings.
