A Must Read!!!

This is the second book by this author that I have read. She captivated me once again! Not only was this one a great story but it's another book that you can get lost in. With today's hectic life style so many of us experience, I love to relax and enter another world through reading. From page one this book took me into it's pages and into it's world. I was actually sad when I finished because I didn't want to leave it's world. Thank you to the author and I look forward to more to come!

Jamise did it again....

I thought this book was well thought out and took you places that made you ask yourself some serious questions. The author did a real good job weaving the plot and I really thought I actually knew Daisy and felt for her in my heart. Great reading and I highly recommend this one.

Girl Got Talent!!!

This book is remarkable from the 1st page to the last! Dames writes with such force & passion that it is impossible to put in down, once it's openned. This book is an excellent read for both Women & Men. I loved BOTH of her books but this one is even HOTTER!! Want to know what I'm siked about-then I suggest you jump on the bandwagon, go get a copy, and start reading!!!

Pushing Daisy

This book is drama after drama. Almost like a soap opera. It will keep your attention throughout the book. Daisy is a wonderful character and she would give anything to have Jay to remain in her life. I do not like to give away too much, but if you want to read some drama, this is the book. Just a touch... Jasper and Jonathan were twins that slept with the same woman; Jasper & Jonathan shared the same DNA so who really fathered Jay? Is Adonis really engaged and just stringing Daisy along for a ride? READ THE BOOK. IT'S GREAT.

Excellent!!

I must commend Jamise Dames for her second literary work. I absolutely loved it. This book pulled me in from the beginning and didn't let go. My son actually hid it from me because he said I wouldn't put it down to go to sleep. I loved all the characters, Daisy, Jay, Adonis, Gigi and Ming Li. Many of the other characters were a trip. You'll love this book, it's characters and definitely the story line. The line from this book that stuck out to me was when you said "That a person has to suffer to grow" that is such a true statement. We all have to live in order to learn things. Like isn't an easy street and I believe you showed that in this book. Ms. Dames, keep up the good work, may God continue to bless you and I look forward to your next literary baby!! Go Get This Book!!!
