Another good one!

I enjoyed Trevia and Nyles's story. Trivia was definitely a character. And the whole thing with Wes was a straight up mess. I kept saying, ' Girl, what were you thinking?!' He tried it, though. I love it when a man is open and honest about his feelings, and that was Nyles from jump. I really liked him.

I love the relationship between Greer, Trevia and Denise. They're all so different, but they get along so well and always have each other's backs.

Very entertaining read!

Men that can use words is attractive. Men that turn stuffy jobs into something sensual is attractive.

Not as fast paced as I would have liked, but still an interesting read and entertaining as all of this author's books I've read so far have turned out to be.

This series just keeps getting better. The poetry was so beautiful, the couple felt like a modern version of Darius and Nina!

Love me some Nyles!

I love me a man who can bend words and Nyles had me at hello! Alexandria knows how to create a man that makes you salivate. I love Trevia’s heart. Despite all the hurt she has endured, she is still a kind soul. Another great one!

I like AH books, but this one was meh. I found it to be a mess but predictable and the plot was almost exactly like the first book. I read her Romey University trilogy first, which was amazing. This series lacks the depth and for every issue, sex is the only resolution which is so unrealistic. I don’t like making things unfinished, so I’ll listen to the last book in this series…eventually.

I listened to Made to Love as an audiobook, but I think I would enjoy this series more in physical format—the female narrator just didn’t work for me. Something about her delivery felt off, and hearing her pronounce Tupac as “Tupack” took me right out of the story. The male narrator even mispronounced the main character’s name once, which made me question whether the audio had been reviewed before publishing.

As for the story itself, it was okay. Thankfully, I first discovered Alexandria House through a different book, so I know she has an amazing way with words. But this particular series hasn’t grabbed me. The romance between Trevia and Nyles felt rushed and a bit off. There’s a difference between a fast romance that feels exciting and one that just feels confusing and possessive. This one leaned toward the latter, with too many half-truths and repetitive references to the past, making the plot feel scattered.

Trevia’s sister’s involvement seemed important initially as a way to bring Trevia and Nyles together, but ultimately, it felt more like filler, and the ending seemed abrupt. I plan to finish the series (because I have to lol), but I won’t be coming back to this one anytime soon. Trevia had me wanting to shake some sense into her more than a few times!
