DAMN, DAMN, DAMN!!!!

This book was off the hook!!! I literally finished it in 2 days!! I can't say if it was because I was going through something myself at the time, or if the book was just plain reality that hit me where it hurts...but whatever the case may be, I'm glad I purchased this book because it helped me to get through my own drama. This was one of the best reads I have ever laid hands on. The first novel hits you and it makes you say, "I love myself and I love the people that love me!" Then the second novel hits you and it makes you say, "that's what you get for not giving me the love that I so deeply found and gave to you," But then the third novel hits you and it makes you say, "what the hell have I been thinking and doing all of this time - wake up sista!" Eileen Johnson, V. Anthony Rivers, and Zane...YA'LL PUT IT DOWN!
Job Well Done!!!!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
Of course I am not surprised that this was another well done job by Zane. But usually it's so hard to find other authors that could make the whole book a five star read. All three authors held their own weight making this a nice enjoyable,insightful read. The stories range from drug addiction,selfishness,mental and physical abuse and so much more. I was not disappointed. Go get your copy today this one is a keeper.
Great as usual
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This book was excellent. As usual Zane, Eileen M Johnson, V. Anthony Rivers did their thing with this book. The stories told were heartbreaking, soul shaking and very emotional. I would suggest this book to anyone who lives in a fairy tale world when it comes to love. Love is great but it can also be painful. I read this book in two days, only cause I was at work. Can't wait for the next book.
