Publisher's summary

Carin Douglas is a fearless young girl, thrust into the role of a stickup kid alongside Brooklyn's most notorious thugs. She learns to fight, to survive, and, ultimately, to shine through a series of events that take her from a young girl on the verge to a designer-clad diva with a hot car, an even hotter man, and a million deadly skeletons in her closet.

When Carin meets Monty, aka "Money Monty", he sweeps her off her feet with one romantic gesture after another. Monty is a sexy, powerful man with that legendary Brooklyn swagger and more money than most of his peers in the street. Their urban fairytale soon erupts into passionate sex, bold power moves, and, eventually, devastating physical violence between them. When things get explosive, Carin is reminded of the love she knows Monty feels for her and the lavish lifestyle he's showered her with. But will that be enough to save them?

Carin and Monty's love comes full circle in this epic story of love, loss, pain, and forgiveness. In Ayana Ellis' second novel, she raises the bar, exposes some ugly truths, and shines a spotlight on the painful reality of domestic abuse. All that glitters isn't gold in this new novel that is sure to have listeners talking for years to come.

Great use of a credit

This book is great! Great story, characters and lots of funny moments. I would relisten (and there’s only a few books I would do that for) can’t wait for the next book!

Good Story Line

This was a great read. The narrator was perfect and I had to come full circle myself.

No one is this dumb!

I almost quit listening to this book so many times because I kept thinking that this has to be the dumbest b*tch in the world. There ain't that much love in the world to continually allow yourself to be brutalized, especially when you have options. This book is 10 hours long on Audible, and I swear 8 of those hours were spent detailing the main character's abuse. Too drawn out. The author could've spent some time following up with the mother. Nicole Small as narrator was brilliant per usual. The selfless young boy who was there for the main character from the first chapter just dropped out of sight, never to return. I really thought the title meant that they would see each other again to give us all closure! Nope. The book is good, but as an avid reader big discrepancies stand out to me. Also, how does Monty spend extravagantly for years after being awarded only 1 million dollars? I mean, EXTRAVAGANTLY!

Domestic violence is nothing to play with

I know we all have been abuse at some point in our lives whether it be our parents friends so-called friends enemies somebody has violated an ass but it is good to forgive the way Jesus Christ says because you can’t hold the hate and bitter mess in your heart if you want to be forgiven by the Almighty God get out while you can if you or someone you know or in a violent relationship if you only lead to one of two things down or jail I recommend this book

Opening old wounds..

The recording of this book was a blast from my past. The hurt, pain of abuse, mental and physical came back ten fold. The story for me was touch and go but I’d listen to it all over again and pass on the message of loving yourself more to any and all who’s had to go through this to see and witness the not only the thoughts of giving up and and or giving in but the victory to those of us that made it. I continue to pray for those who suffered and lost their battle of abuse.
