Loved!

This was a really good listen!! I am in love with the duet style audiobooks. Wes and JD brought this story to life. I cant see anyone else reading Africa and Tracey’s love story. This was indeed a love story. I love when the lead characters are imperfect and we see their growth. The build up and coming together is so amazing. Bravo Joan Vassar!

Loved It!

I love Joan Vasser's writing! Every story brings new characters with so much depth. Jakobi and Wesleigh did their thing with the narration! Tracy definitely had BDE! Mrs Ivory was about her business getting everybody together!

Great Story

Joan Vassar has done it again! I love everything written by her. I would love to listen to the stories behind Malcom and Ken. The only critique I have is the 1985 date. Everything sounded more like the 90’s to me especially knowing a little bit about paternity testing.

Yeeesssss for me

This is really a beautiful story I’m looking for another book. Beautiful ending words can’t express how I feel about the love story.
