Love Binds Family and Friends Forever!

While I was not impressed with the games of the players of the BDP (Billion Dollar Playboys), I was definitely pleased with the fast-paced storytelling of Daryl Diggs. This first novel is very interesting and entertaining. The characters are strong, individually and collectively, 'specially dat sho nuff playa, JR. Diggs shows us that true love has its ups and downs, ins and outs, but loves goes beautifully when you endure.Don't be fooled by the appearance of this 192pp book. It confirms that big things really do come in small packages. That's the Way Love Goes is packed with LOTS of laughs and heartwarming moments. As you laugh at the antics of the BDP, you may hate their acts as playas, but you'll love and respect their loyalty for family and friends. Though you'll miss the BDP as they ride off into the sunset (as the book ends), the author definitely gives you an appetizer of his talent and makes you want to come back for more. I look forward to his future works.This is a quick, satisfying read of love for family, friends, and fun!

Excellent Debut Novel!

That's The Way Love Goes, written by newcomer Daryl C. Diggs is a story about Donavin Jackson's college life with his 2 best friends, J.R. and Spoon. In the beginning of the story, Donavin, J.R. and Spoon are all big-time players known as the Billion Dollar Players (or BDP) but when Donavin meets the lovely and slightly older Jasmine, he's debating on turning in his "player's card" for good. Throughout the story, Donavin finds himself learning valuable lessons about himself, others, and life while trying to keep everything together in order to graduate from college.The two most enjoyable things about this book are its smooth, believable dialogue and its humor. Some of the lines in this story, especially some by J.R. are literally LAUGH OUT LOUD funny. If you are thinking that the college story has been done before, you may be correct in that thought, but, this was a very well written college story with some very interesting twists and turns throughout the novel. This book will be done before you know it since it's less than 200 pages but the author tells the story more than adequately given the size of his book.If you are looking for a good story that has great characters with some lines you won't soon forget ought to check this one out. This novel is an excellent start to a promising writing career for Daryl C. Diggs.

Excellent Book and Highly Recommended

Where do I begin?? This was one of the best first-time novel by an Author that has totally impressed me. I was glued to each page from the moment I opened the book. This book was a very fast paced book and you fell in love with the characters. That's the Way Love Goes is one of the best novels I have read this year. It touched upon comedy, love, family, and friendship.Donavin Jackson, Adam Witherspoon aka "Spoon" and J.R.(New Orleans reign) are the main characters and are members of the BDP (Billion Dollar Playboys).When Donavin meets Jasmin, the "ONE", we see that even a playa can change when love enters into the picture. The Southern Dialog and analogies that JR comes up with is unbelieveable. I was laughing and saying to myself now that does make sense. This was very unique character building and I am just in awe with the Author. I brought this book into work and found myself sneaking off to read. I was very sad when the book ended because I just wanted more. I am looking forward to a sequel and possible hardcover copy for my collection because this one novel has earned a fan. Our book club has recommended this as one of our Book of the Months and we plan to use the discussion questions already prepared by the Author. Kudos to the Author Daryl C. Diggs! Just a wonderful piece of fiction!
