The sequel to captivating book #1, Redbone 2: Takeover at Platinum Lofts, centers around a dangerous game of cat and mouse between Farah and unassuming love interest-Slade Baker. Slade baker is a sexy outlaw from Mississippi who’s on the run from murder with his brothers, the Baker boys, and they’ve taken at refugee at Platinum Lofts. The strange Coton family vs. the violent Baker boys & their mama Della definitely make for a Takeover! Oh, and I cannot forget to mention that unconventional love entanglements between the siblings of opposing families will definitely draw you into the drama of it all 😲!! Younger siblings: Audio and Chloe share a dangerously lustful connection steeped in self-indulgence and violence. The families older siblings, Farah and Slade, share a deep connection of understanding, but they struggle to remain true to one another in a family feud that’s ripping everyone apart.
The reoccurring theme of people disappearing is prevalent in the sequel too. However, this time the people that are disappearing are near and dear to Farah. Several familiar characters return from book one, and we’re introduced to some new ones🤪. These friends shed some light on Farah’s “medical condition.” Farah’s craziness in this sequel was definitely on a higher level. I will say that seeing her mourn for friendships, and struggles with near death experiences showed a vulnerable side to her that I appreciated 💕. Despite lingering feelings of self-hate, Farah does seem to find a glimmer of salvation in her love for Slade.
True to my liking, the author uses first- and third-person narration in this sequel. I loved the story’s emphasis on loyalty and friendship amidst its’ chaotic schemes and delusions. The author’s skill in blending the different elements was spot on & it all came together very well 💚 RedBone2: Takeover at Platinum Lofts definitely stood alone as a unique and compelling read all on its own for me.
