Yonas “Nas” Kadir is a man of few words. He has learned the art of never showing his hand, which is a valued asset for a man who balances his life between dark and light. There’s not much he desires that isn’t as good as promised to him, which is why Dae Richardson can fight the attraction but will ultimately fall for his good looks and undeniable charm, or so he hopes.

In the real world there was no way flower shop owner Kylie Hagan would ever meet up with millionaire Chance Steele. But the world of single parents and teenage hormones brought them together the first time - and a simmering passion they both tried to deny wouldn't keep them apart for long. Chance made her think of hot, sultry Southern nights. Kylie had him imagining satin sheets and soul-stirring kisses. But in the cold light of day, they had to resist each other. There was no way they’d let uncontrollable desire ignite their carefully protected hearts.

She’s an angel. And she doesn’t mind dancing with a demon. That’s why I’d move mountains, dry seas, and hydrate the desert if it made her happy. She brought goodness to the world. It was only right that I made it hers, along with the two tiny beauties that shared her hazel eyes and perfect smile. For them, I’d do whatever. For them, I’d become whoever.

Publisher's summary
A nostalgic tale of first love, first loss, and the budding womanhood of a Black girl in the '90s.
Tragedy flips Amore Brown’s world on its axis right before she heads off to college. Having to sit tight for the summer, she chooses Jersey City, New Jersey - the home of her estranged father - to pass the time. Here, in urban grit, a stark contrast to the comforts of suburbia, she reconnects with a long-lost cousin for some final months of summer excursions, enrooting, and evolving. But it could never be that simple, even if it were all so simple then....
How much will Amore have to lose in order to find herself? On the road to the woman she is becoming and removed from the girl she is no more, one stop changes her path forever.
"Girls just want to have fun" transforms into the kindling of summer romance tucked into the crust of good times, tribulations, close calls, and one hot summer in Jersey. Amore meets THE guy, finds solace, heals fresh wounds, and battles the thorny relationship with her father, all while learning that heartache has no limits.

Phenomenal
I really don’t know where to start .. I purchased this because Someone in a group I’m in recommended AND AM I GLAD I DID!!! I COULD NOT STOP LISTENING AS WELL AS REWINDING EVERY SO OFTEN TO REPLAY WHAT I HEARD. This was such a great story it pulled me in and had me right there with them. I FOUND MYSELF LAUGHING, CRYING, YELLING! It took me on a emotional ride. The narrator OH MY GOODNESS! This was the first time I’ve heard her and she DID NOT COME TO PLAY… her voices are pure perfection… i usually lean toward dual narration BUT I WILL DEFINITELY LISTEN TO ANYTHING SHE DOES MOVING FORWARD!

Shayna Small delivered this story beautifully!
I read this story back when it was first released and absolutely loved it! The audio elevates the experience. I loved the 90's references and vibe. Takerra Allen does such a magnificent job ringing her readers into the mind and heart of her characters they become living beings to us. I've already listened twice because this story just wont let me go...although there is a particular scene and I can not suffer through again.
I highly recommend this story.

A beautiful coming of age tale!
This is the book I didn’t know that I needed to read. It’s a beautiful yet poignant tale of first love set against the back grip of grief, self-preservation and all of the angst associated with coming of age in an urban area. There are gems interwoven throughout the story that are conveyed in a way that is relatable to readers, young or old.

So good, so refreshing……
I’m sure if I read this book as opposed to listening to Audible, it would be a page turner. The storyline is very interesting. It’s the first book that I’ve heard in which it’s hood love that is swoon worthy. The author wrote this beautiful, descriptive, thought provoking novel. A must read, and Ms. Small delivered as usual, you can’t go wrong with her narration.

Story
Body & Soul is the story of a young man whose life is transformed by a gift. The gift is not without price - the work is relentless, the teachers exacting - but the reward is a journey that takes him to the drawing rooms of the rich and powerful, private schools, a gilt-edged marriage, and Carnegie Hall. Claude moves through this life as if he were playing a difficult composition, swept up in its drama and tension, surprised by its grace notes. Music, here, becomes a character in its own right, equaled in strength only by the music of Frank Conroy's own unmistakable, true voice.

Story
Body & Soul is the story of a young man whose life is transformed by a gift. The gift is not without price - the work is relentless, the teachers exacting - but the reward is a journey that takes him to the drawing rooms of the rich and powerful, private schools, a gilt-edged marriage, and Carnegie Hall. Claude moves through this life as if he were playing a difficult composition, swept up in its drama and tension, surprised by its grace notes. Music, here, becomes a character in its own right, equaled in strength only by the music of Frank Conroy's own unmistakable, true voice.

Story
The true story of a love affair between two extraordinary women becomes a literary tour de force in this novel that recreates the surrealist movement in Paris and the horrors of the two world wars with a singular incandescence. In the years preceding World War I, two young women meet, by chance, in a provincial town in France. Suzanne Malherbe, a shy 17-year-old with a talent for drawing, is completely entranced by the brilliant but troubled Lucie Schwob, who comes from a family of wealthy Jewish intellectuals. They embark on a clandestine love affair, terrified they will be discovered.

Story
Ferryman Charlie Dawson saves dead people - somebody has to convince them to move on to the afterlife, after all. Having never failed a single assignment, he's acquired a reputation for success that's as legendary as it is unwanted. It turns out that serving as a Ferryman is causing Charlie to slowly lose his mind. Deemed too valuable by the Ferryman Institute to be let go and too stubborn to just give up in his own right, Charlie's pretty much abandoned all hope of escaping his grim existence. Or he had, anyway, until he saved Alice Spiegel.
