Who wants that perfect love story anyway?

Shvonne? You ATE with this one. Straight flames.

Now let’s talk Khari Compton. We met him in The Marriage Favor—wild, reckless, and straight up outta pocket. I wasn’t even checking for him to get a book, but whew… I was WRONG. He grew TF up. Ten years later, he’s a rap star. Couture? Entertainment lawyer bossin’ up. And when their paths cross again? It's game over. The love, the tension, the growth—yeah, I was locked in.

Couture deserved the world and Khari knew it. He fumbled hard back in the day, but grown man Khari? Patient, persistent, and all about redemption. That man said “it’s always been you,” and me and Couture both melted.

Now let’s drag the delusion crew: Marley, Kéa, Leland. Clown energy. Struggle central. Audacity on sale. Destiny’s Child motivational playlist type of persistence—but not in a good way. That ending with Kéa? Embarrassing.

Bottom line? This book delivered. Love, drama, redemption, real life mess. 10/10. Khari and Couture forever. Period.
