In Spite of It All

The Spite Series, Book 2

Love is not on the drink menu.

At least not for Tiana St. Patrick as she nurses the broken heart caused by her ex after their sudden, unexpected, yet incredibly necessary break-up.

But when a generous stranger offers to jumpstart her healing process, and doubles down with a chance encounter at her business, she can't help but wonder if his presence is worth something more than just a helping hand even though he seems to be exactly the type of guy she should be avoiding at all costs. Kelvin Watson is a man on a mission. Between the lounge he co-owns with his big brother, and the ladies that frequent it, it's no secret that he has plenty to keep himself busy.

Still, when a particular patron catches his eye and then manages to ease her way into his heart with her easygoing vibe and natural charm, he can't help himself in pushing for something more. And when more turns into a discovery of past indiscretions, present reservations, and future obstacles, Tiana and Kelvin find themselves attempting to navigate their budding romance, in spite of it all.

(Note: This book is a spin-off of, Love at First Spite. While it can be listened to as a standalone, it does contain major spoilers for that title.)

Bulletproof

Foremost, (oh my goodness) be prepared for a totally different “spite” perspectives🤔🥴🤦🏾‍♀️…with Book 2. Tiana & Kelvin reminded me of the BonJovi’s 1986 rock classic “You Give Love a Bad Name” 🤭‼️There’s NO swoons or NO swans just Kelvin swamped by sappy excuses, sloppy seconds & shear misses for the affections of one chick 👀🤭🤷🏾‍♀️…dude, you got it bad‼️ Nevertheless, with an open mind, nerves of steel & or a bulletproof vest “In Spite of it All (The Spite Series - Book 2) which was also read via Kindle/AUDIBLE featuring narrators Ms. Wesleigh Siobhan & Myles Washington was exasperatingly entertaining‼️

beautiful story

its was very beautiful story I really loved it
I like the bond between ellie and Kelvin

The art of self sabotage was real

I ultimately enjoyed this book, but the self sabotage and judgement from Ms Tiana was working my soul!! She played on the " age thing " unnecessarily but she finally got it together.

Better than the first

Loved everything about this. Myles and Wesleigh are the dream team! Tiana made Kelvin work for her heart but I get it after what her ex put her through. Great story overall with lovable characters.

Romance and obstinacy

This book was absolutely amazing!! This book felt like love exists even if it had turns and curves!! This was amazing… romance for single mothers!
