Any additional comments?

this was a great book, as a mail carrier walking all day gets kinda boring, (right). the characters, had my lil mind constantly in a state of OMG. walking down the streets damn near talking to myself, rewinding my ipod to see if I heard her rite or did she say what I thought she said??? It took me 3 days to listen to since i only listen to my books when i'm working, makes the day shorter. I was pleased. kudo's to the author, and narrator.

Great listen

This was a great book! I had my doubts at first, but it had me from the beginning, I did not want this book to end. The story line was awesome some time the choices we make can end badly. The Langston was a loving couple but one person can mess everything up be careful of your choices. Great title

Will keep you interested

Very good story. Make you think about the choices you make and the results of a those choices...

One of the good ones.

This is one of the best books I have ever read. I was imagining and guess all the way through the book and coming up with different scenarios. I loved it...

The Deal, the Dance, and the Devil

Wow this book makes you think about your morals. And it really makes you think twice about the people you come in contact with!

I couldn't stop until it was over.

This was a very good novel, one that really got the mind going. There was a few too many lusty parts in the book for my taste, but I got the point the author was makig sure to get accross. The ending was good too, it did not let me down.

Faith ?

I love this author. Good book to listen to . I enjoyed it☺☺ very much

Trust God in All Things

This book is a heart and eye opener went deep. Keep the faith in everything.
