All her life, Messiah’s faced nothing but hardship, trials and tribulations. She’s tried to work, pray, sex, sleep and smoke her problems away but she can’t escape the gloomy, grey clouds hovering over her head. Just wanting to be happy, she's blinded by love; Messiah only sees what she wants to see – always building up to be let down and ultimately crashing. She craves love and admiration but doesn’t love herself enough to know when it’s time to let go of an old flame. Directionless, she coasts along through life numb, until she meets Shyhiem, the man who will change her life forever. He’s everything she never knew she wanted, but everything that she absolutely needed. Without permission, Shyhiem marches into her life and turns everything upside down. He’s rude, cocky, angry and devastatingly handsome. To the world, he’s nothing but an ex-convict with a chip on his shoulder; but to Messiah, he’s an angel sent down from heaven who teaches her how to love again. When Messiah finds herself wasting time, daydreaming about when she’ll see or speak to him again, she knows she’s in trouble. Love wasn’t in the equation for her - especially since she still has feelings for her ex - and Shyhiem has a ghetto baby mother and two kids… Will their love prevail or will self-doubt, self-pity, and a sense of emptiness stop everything before it starts?

****Spoiler Alert****

Omg! This story was amazing, I read it in about 4 hours while at work!!! I cannot wait for part 2, Keisha really outdid herself with this book and now I am sad that it's over. Messiah was and still is a hot damn mess, lol. She definitely needs to do some more growing up, before she can finally learn to love whole heartily again! Byron was a complete a-hole so, I cannot believe she is considering running back to him again. Shyhiem also has some deep issues as well, this book was well-written and unbelievably beautiful, I cannot wait until the new one.. I need to find out what happens next! Bravo... 5 STARS all around!!!

This was a well written story about love with all its ups and downs. It wasn’t fairytale but real life drama. It had good sex scenes, love, betrayal and pain. It was definitely a good read. Messiah has struggled with love her whole life and just when she thinks she’s found all of the twists and turns happen. I can’t wait to read part two. Kudos for a well written story.

Happy reading,

I love this authors work! I have read and listened to several of her works. I'm trying to catch up on her catalog. Already ordered the sequel because I can't wait to find out what happens next.

I loved it! I loved how the brother didn't do anything crazy besides accept that he had done wrong. This book was so good and I cried at the end. Some parts were slow but I honestly didn't mind. I love this kind of writing from Keisha I do feel like the quality of the book however could have been better in terms of the format and things like that because she isn't a amateur I must note there were no errors the layout was just sloppy to me but this is a MUST READ!

It’s the right balance of dialog and narration. Being from missouri I’m already pulled in cause of the setting. She gave you enough background on the characters to immediately connect with them and immerse yourself into the story. It’s descriptive but not over bearing. Even in third person you can hear the tones of the two different characters and their thoughts. (Like I said I’m picky 😂😭)

I’m shoulder deep now with Messiah and Shyhiem! I’m smiling and laughing. I’m bout to read her entire catalog now. So if you looking for a new read go ahead and hop on the train with me so we can discuss.

You know when characters get on your nerves because you can see what they are about to go thru? Messiah is so damn naive that I want to knock sense into her; even though, I can understand how’s she has been traumatized, she’s too grown to be such a doormat. And Shyheim! He’s naive af too. This book is well written and part 2 is definitelyfinna lead to a Pandora’s box of drama

Once again, I'm left speechless by one of Keisha Erving's books. I loved reading about Shyheim and Messiah's story and I can't wait to see how it ends. I have never been so emotional while reading a book. Messiah's pain resonated with me, as I've dealt with depression myself, so I understood how she felt. This story kept me on my toes and I didn't want to put the book down. Everytime I was away from it, I thought about it. I will definitely read the whole series. Keisha Erving is an amazing writer. Now, I'm going to binge read all of her books. I definitely recommend reading this story if you like black romance stories.
