Solomon and Kaori stumble into each other when she's had enough love drama to save her life, and he fears he'll never find the loyalty and family he's really looking for. Can they give each other the benefit of the doubt.
Okay, so Smoke wanted all the Smoke. With everyone. All the time. First, I loved the way he loved his brother and the way he never stopped calling his parents to the carpet. I love that he stood up for himself, his son and his peace. The relationship with his son's mother was an iffy one for me--I understood his stance, but it still made me sad, lol. Kaori was a wild one, always on go and I loved that she got herself right and decided to live her life for herself.
Smoke and KK clashed at first, and their back and forth made me wonder if it would balance, but it did. Their love was nice to see and experience. they were sexy, and into one another, but still holding strong to the things that were important to them.
I will say that Smoke's mouth was a tad too disrespectful and got to be a little too much for me after a while and I cringed reading some of it. I wish it had been toned down just a little. But still a great story.
