Thoroughly enjoyed this novel! It was exciting, lively and highly entertaining! Highly recommend!

Despite not reading the earlier novels in the series, this book provided an engaging stand-alone read. It was easy to feel the emotional turmoil along with each character through their journey!

I have not read the other books in the series, but it felt like it could be read as a stand alone. YaYa and Indie are a newly married couple, but are also having to deal with the mother of YaYa's child, Parker as well as the issues regarding Indie's court case. This story gives you a lot of drama, as well as romance mixed in. It had a good flow and entertaining.

Ashley delivers the kind of story that we've come to expect from an author who crafts a tale from the streets to the sheets and back into a place of darkness once again. I'm not that into urban lit, but this is written with polish and style.

This is the first book by this author that I've read and it definitely wont be the last. This book will keep you reading long into the night. This book can be read as a stand alone, I haven't read any other in this series but I'll definitely be going back to read them. The characters are really well written and you just end up falling in love with them as you read. This is an exciting book to read. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.
Highly recommended
I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book

This was an okay read for me, has lots of emotion and is entertaining but the story doesn’t seem to be moving along. Hoping for more in the next read.

I have not read the other books in this series, so I was a little confused. However that did not affect the plot or deter my enjoyment of the book. This story is a pager turner and keeps you entertained from cover to cover. The characters and interactions in the book were very likeable and realistic. I will definitely take the time out to go back read the entire series from start to finish. This book was exciting and I will be recommending it!!

Although this is a 5th in a series, I was able to keep up due to the quality writing. Ya-Ya finally has her happy ending with Indie or does she? Ethic and Parker may have something to say about that. The book held my interest. The ending leaves it open for another book, but it also reminds me of that old saying," If you keep getting the same results, try another way". Will Ya-Ya learn this? Read the book and find out. Thanks to NetGalley, the author and the publisher for the ARC of this book in return for my honest review.

I enjoyed it! As a reader of Ashley and JaQuavis and The Prada Plan series, I was anxiously awaiting for this book to see what happens with Indie, Yaya, and their love merry-go-round. I cannot wait for the next book.

One would think that a meteoric rise from back alley deals to the highest echelon of boardroom negotiations; with the woman that you love and your young daughter at your side would make life perfect for any man.
And...
In most cases.
One would be right.
Most cases...
But not however, in the case of Mr. Indie Perkins.
You see, Mr. Perkins, try as he might, can't seem to escape the one person in his life hell bent on destroying him.
Himself.
Or, more to the point.
His choices.

Choices which have lead him to jeopardize his hard-won legitimacy in the name of loyalty to "the game". To sacrifice family for his "side chick" and a "maybe baby".
To leave the heart of his greatest love so battered and broken, that it could only be repaired by his worst enemy.
To turn the lives of everyone that he loves upside down. Leaving the people that he loves most to find their own way out of the lies, hurt, betrayal, and mistrust.

Ashley Antionette's fifth installment in her famed Prada Plan series, has everything that lovers of Urban Fiction read for.
Drugs
Side Chicks
Maybe Babies
Infidelity
Backroom Deals
Jail-time
Strong Women
Weak Woman
Weak Men
Strong Men
Lies
Drama...drama...drama
If in fact, more could be said without telling the story...
It would be.
But in the interest of preserving your right as a reader to have the best TV show you've ever read spoiled.
It won't be.
This is a very well written book. The perfect blend of street smart and polished intellect.
The only detraction, if one could even call it that, to be found here. Was the author's tendency to point out how her character's situations were somehow mirrored in Black communities. Making her work of fiction sound less like the escape that it is meant to be, and more like a sociological Master's thesis on The Plight Of The Black Man In America.
Hence, the 4.5 star rating.

Reviewer's Note: This book is the fifth in a closely related continuing series. It can however, be read as intended. Or as a standalone.
