I really enjoyed this book!! I liked how each chapter was a different person's story and I loved how we found out how they were all connected to each other. This was a true multi-generational novel. It was very well-written and each chapter told its own independent story. Would definitely recommend to others!!

"Reading this book caused a kind of romantic awakening when I was younger, and my hair has never risen so high as on the last word of the last chapter."

I was hooked from the name of the first chapter: "Celeste Solange and Her Fifteen-Thousand-Dollar Shoes." Each chapter is similarly named ("Lydia Albright and Her Alexandra Neel Pumps," "Jessica Caulfield and Her Balenciaga Sandals"), making me truly look forward to each new chapter so I could see who it would be about and what shoes they would be wearing. What a fun book this was. Can't wait to start Secrets of the Hollywood Girls Club next!

I am so bored with hearing about how much the men in Anita's life work out. I get it, they're shifters and buff. I don't need chapter upon chapter about their work outs. I'd give this more stars if half the book hadn't been fluff about working out. Not even sure why I keep reading this series anymore.

this book carries straight on from part one, part one end with chapter 9 this book starts with chapter 10. same fantastic characters from the first part. this story has lots of twists and turn, with lots more hot steamy scenes between the characters. the story continues in this book, the characters develop and more of there secrets come out.this story again is fast paced and will keep you reading long into the night. cant wait to get started on part three.

highly recommended

"I got a friend who wrote a book, it’s called ‘One Hundred Dollar Misunderstanding,’ it’s about this straight-A college kid, fraternity guy, and a 14-year-old negro prostitute, and it’s got two dialogues in the same book. One chapter is what he’s doing and what he does, and the next chapter is her view of him. It actually comes out and states something that’s actually true… This guy who wrote it, you can’t label him. He’s unlabelable."
