REDBONE series by T. Styles

REDBONE: Where, oh where, have Farah’s roommates all gone? Let’s start by saying that the author’s writing style in this book series is very well-developed and much appreciated. The narrator’s seamless transition from third to first person throughout the story adds depth and creates a deeper connection between the reader and the main characters. Farah Coton, the main character, is a complex and deeply flawed individual who will do anything to be accepted by her peers. Her need for acceptance and lack of self-love led her down a path of self-destruction. The story is filled with unexpected, action-packed plot twists that will keep even the most discerning readers on the edge of their seats! The diverse array of characters, with Farah Cotton as the showstopper, will undoubtedly hook readers! This book’s engaging narrative style, intriguing plots, and exploration of complex characters make this a memorable and thought-provoking read. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a delightfully surprising read.

REDBONE 2: Takeover at Platinum Lofts is the sequel to the captivating first book. This installment centers on a dangerous game of cat and mouse between Farah Coton and her unexpected love interest, Slade Baker. Slade, a charismatic outlaw from Mississippi, is on the run from murder charges alongside his brothers, known as the Baker boys. They have taken up residence at Platinum Lofts, where Farah also lives. The clash between the strange Coton family and the violent Baker family leads to a thrilling takeover! The story explores unconventional love entanglements between the two feuding families and carries a recurring theme of missing people, some of whom are near and dear to Farah. Several familiar characters from the first book return, alongside new ones who add depth to the narrative. The sequel definitely escalates the ‘craziness,’ while also revealing a more vulnerable and human side of Farah. A glimmer of hope for her salvation emerges through her love for Slade. Both Farah and Slade are unique individuals who share a profound connection, yet they struggle to stay true to one another amidst a family feud that is tearing everyone apart. The story’s emphasis on loyalty and friendship in the midst of chaos and confusion makes it a gem. RedBone2: Takeover at Platinum Lofts stood alone as a unique and compelling read all on its own.
