Publisher's summary

Two children from Sierra Leone, Liberty and A’shai, are brought together by chance, only to be forced apart by the most inevitable and tragic fate. Ashley & JaQuavis bring us this classic love story set against modern life’s most horrifying realities.

Liberty is dying of a fatal heart condition, though she desperately wants to survive until her 25th birthday, when her sister has promised to visit her. A’shai blames himself for not protecting Liberty, but all Liberty asks is for A’shai to tell her a story, to help her remember what brought them to this point. He knows that this is the last story he will ever tell—and the last she will ever hear.

As Liberty lies dying, A’shai walks her through their past, reliving their ill-fated journeys through the streets. Their story will take them from an arranged marriage, through Mexico’s drug cartel, child brothels, and hustling in Detroit, to escaping the high-powered heads of LA’s underworld. But ultimately, this is a story of love and redemption that will leave you breathless from the unpredictable and mind-blowing ending.

Slow Start, but Amazing book with Twist & Turns

Murderville 1 didn't have a good start, but once it got going it was a good reader. The ending was unexpected and sad at the same time.

Wow

This was a great love story. The love they had for one another was great. The years apart was worth the all being found again.

wow

is all I can say. I've never read a story like this. it was very thrilling and so culturally accurate from the lingo to the actions and responses. it was amazing! it took me a minute to get into it I'll admit, I'm a bit white washed when it comes to my literary choices but this might make me rethink that. I look forward to reading from more black authors.

I couldn’t put it down

This was an amazing love story but why can’t y’all keep some other lovers together besides Sthic and Aloni! This was an amazing story about the realness of sex trafficking and love, I would definitely recommend this to everyone ❤️❤️
