In eight years Marlon James will be one of the brightest rising stars in the music industry. Bristol Gray will be his tough, no-nonsense manager.

But when they first meet, she's a college student finding her way in the world, and he's an artist determined to make his way in it.

From completely different worlds, all the things that should separate them only draw them closer.

It's a beautiful beginning, but where will the story end?

Contains mature themes.

This novella was really good. Kennedy Ryan’s writing is beautiful. I really liked both Grip and Bristol, and that ending 😲 I will definitely be starting the next book asap.

Reviewing all 3 together.

Ok. Buckle up.
This is not your usual romance. Not your usual smut.
This is extremely well written with ALL of the emotions evoked.
It gives incredible love, laughter, rage, sadness, and GREAT sex.

The inclusion of true art/music/poetry and a wonderful lens on the active racism and ways we (esp us white ppl) can help overcome, was riveting.

There were moments in book 2 that I thought I’d abandon. The frustration with them (her) not being honest and him with someone else + the way his family treated her upset me enough to want to quit… but I couldn’t get their story out of my mind.

The obsession with anal on his end was a little strange imo, but this is truly a wild love story.
So, so glad there was a HEA… it didn’t look great at times!

Well worth the time investment. I’d listen to a follow up of their love story for sure!

Review for the 3 books: this series is incredible
