After being abandoned in a dumpster in the hood like trash at just two weeks old, a black family finds him and raises him. Growing up in the black community, Javo naturally develops a swag that attracts black women. When he meets Mahogany, a beautiful, dark-skinned woman who has no interest in dating outside of her race, he turns on his charm and makes her second guess her preference.
Being dark-skinned, Mahogany has always felt that she wasn’t good enough, especially after facing betrayal over and over again from the black men whom she'd always put on a high pedestal. All of her thoughts and feelings began to change when Javo comes into her life and is blown away by her beautiful, melanin skin.
Mahogany will soon find out that Javo isn’t like the trifling low down men that she’s dated in her past.

Update! Here's my full review:
https://bookishrealmreviews.blogspot....
Unexpectedly Enjoyed
While the writing wasn’t always the best (I wish the author would have done more showing instead of telling) I actually found this book to be really interesting. I’ve never read anything like it and I spent the entire day at work telling my coworkers about it. I like that there is a slow burn romance forming between the two main characters and that it wasn’t rushed. I also appreciated the fact that we got insight to the lives of each of the characters. Some aspects of the plot are predictable especially with Javo’s sick and twisted biological father. I want to see more character development for Mahogany and Germaine. I’ll definitely be picking up the second book. -
I don't usually write a review.....
I don't usually write a review unless my reading experience is really really good or very very bad!! It started out good but I don't think it was thought out all the way!!! I would have liked for the drama to slowly escalated not boom bam pop here it is!! In my opinion it was not a great read -
This four-book series that I consumed over a weekend was entertaining. I was interested to see how this interracial romance would play out. It is not always easy with a character like Javo to make him believable and have him integrated into his adopted culture properly. However, this author did a good job of creating a believable character. His "adoption" bordered the fine line between real and unreal. Real because kids are left the way he was every day. Unreal because of how easily he was found. Mahagony's & Javo's exes were the perfect villains for a moment. However, Javo's parents were the ultimate villains. I enjoyed each scene with them. The author delivered a well-written story that flowed well. If you want something other than the typical "dope boy" and "bad girl", I think you will enjoy this series. Get your copy of book 1 below to get started and don't forget to leave a review in support of the author.

IT FLOWED FROM THE BEGINNING TO THE END I HATED TO SEE TO BE CONTINUED... JAVO IS A SPECIAL DUDE I HOPE ROCHELLE DON'T GET HURT .. MAHOGANY NEVER CAUGHT A BREAK HER FRIENDSHIP WITH JAVO WAS A BLESSING ... I THINK JOE IS UP TO SOMETHING THAT AIN'T NO GOOD.. I HATE GERMAINE AIN'T NEVER OPEN UP TO JAVO READY FOR PART 2

Exciting read!
Can’t wait to see what happens in book 2! Javo and Mahogany will make a great couple if Diamond don’t start no mess. Javo is definitely Mahogany’s White King that is totally sweeping her off her feet. -
I was all in and I loved Javo. It was crazy just how much Mahogany experienced from the men she encountered. Dontavius was a sorry excuse for a man and I wish Mahogany knew just how far he took things. I felt bad for Rochelle because she went out of her way to raise someone else's child after losing her own. As much as Javo wanted to know about himself, he'll soon learn he might've been better off not knowing. Sharon Ann and Joe deserve whatever comes their way and I feel as though Joe's responsible for a lot of what's going on around them. Hopefully something more will come from Mahogany and Javo's friendship.

Not what I expected
This title threw me off from the actual story. Javo is not your average white man. I was a little disturbed by his sex with the two women on the beginning. Is this day and time protection is EVERYTHING. The cliffhanger was really good and I can’t wait to read the next installment. -
I fell in love with Javo immediately. He definitely had game and a little edge to his character. His feathers didn't get ruffled easily. The way he carried himself even when faced with not so mature people was commendable. He didn't try to be something he wasn't and he was a gentleman.

I loved it
The twists and turns in this story were great. I know Joe is a demon just by how he acts. Javo is my kinda guy he's an alpha male for sure I can't wait for him to get Mahogany's attention. -
I was soooo entrapped by this series, i wished there was a bit more angst within the relationship just to see how they hold out but the couple stillll had me so entertained with how their relationship grew.
**same review for whole series** -
Interesting read
I definitely liked the book it was sad how Javo's parents treated him when he was a baby I am rooting for him and Mahogany -
Fabulous
I love the book it keep me thinking what’s going to happen next. I’ve told friends about the book they reading it too, and there’s nothing I disliked about this book -
Wow
I can't wait to see how these Hill billy's try and spin this story. I'm hoping he believes in his mom enough to know she's not lying to him. I well. I'm to book 2 -
Wow 😲😲
Yoo Javo ain't gonna like the can of worms he just open!! Mahogany needs to let love find her!! What's up with Joe😬😬😬😬??Man the drama is about to get EXTRA real😂😂😂 -
good
Omg this story is so good I loved everything about it that ending was everything though it’s about to get good -
This was an okay read nice drama I guess.
-
Great
Javo found his parents I can't wait to see how they are going to explain to him how he ended on the trash -
Not the typical storyline
This book was a breath of fresh air. It wasn’t the same storyline of drug dealers and broken females that I am use to reading. Can’t wait to see the outcome of everything. -
I might be crazy. I both hate this book but need to know what happen. Tons of people love this book so if you are reading my review take this with a grain of salt(or the whole shaker).
I liked Javo, but everyone else made no sense.
How mama Rochelle get the papers to keep him, small issue. She so desperate to be a good mom but Germaine’s behavior goes unchecked?
Mahogany...a counselor who let a lying man explain away a wife with one half ass conversation and she showering to be fresh for when he get there. He didn’t eve have a good story. He says get an abortion and when she doesn’t and he poisons her she don’t tell doctors, police, no one. She just loses the baby, but mons the baby and Germaine?!? HE POISONED YOU!? ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS? This chick could be in a room full of men and would find the one Freddie Kruger, or Harvey Weinstein(Blaze). Seriously, what was her fucking criteria? No one deserves all the shit that happens to her but she keeps walking into smoking rooms expecting not to find 🔥 flames.
All this irritation and I’m still gonna read the next book and probably be irritated when more dumb shit happens which makes me no better than Mahogany’s dumb ass.
Tons of people love this book, ignore me, I might be crazy too.
If you think they are doing dumb shit in this book please like this review so I know I’m not alone. -
Javo
This is the 1st book in a 4 book completed series and so far it's good. The story grabs your attention from the prologue and keeps it until the cliffhanger. -
I enjoyed it!
Javo better be careful it's looks like his real daddy a killer. Mahogany needs to get smarter in the next book. I like Rochelle and pray she gets a happy ending.
