Summary: Hayes is a promising novelist...
Review: ...but for now, she could stand to brush up on some creative writing skills. The storyline in general kept up the momentum, but barely. Too many times, I found myself slamming the book down in disbelief to outright disgust. Some of the situations were realistic enough but were so underdeveloped to the point of being unrealist, but hey, it's fiction, so what did I expect, a more realistic depiction of seemingly realistic situations? Goodness, no. The dialogue was, for the most part, corny; the narration was, at times, confusing, and the story just didn't flow like it should have. I love romance novels like the next person, I've just read better. I thinks Hayes is a promising novelist, but a little more research behind the fiction would make for a better read. That's just one person's opinion.

Review: I loved this story. It is so in tune with the relationships between black men and women today. SO many black men are locked up and seemingly hopeless. Not true - many are kind and good but just on the wrong path.

This story warmed my heart and it was inspiring.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Great Book
Review: I really enjoyed reading this book. I thought it was great. Everytime Shemone was happy & gitty about something sweet Darnell did I smiled. Whenever she was irritated about something he did or said I was irritated right with her. I had moments where I couldn't put the book down.

Good work Hunter!

Summary: A Pair Like No 'Otha...
Review: I really enjoyed this book, it was a really cute read.

"A Pair Like No 'Otha" focuses on Shemone Waters and Darnell Williams two friends from high school who made up 1/2 of their crew, the "Final Four".
When one of their mutual friends passes, Shemone and Darnell are brought together during this unfortunate time, and feelings that are more than friendship begin to escalate.

The two get taken on a rollercoaster ride of emotions, and to top it off they are as different as night and day. Shemone is a successful writer who is serious about what she does, Darnell on the other hand, is in the process of trying to get himself together, after he did time in prison.
The fact that Shemone is moving up in the game, and Darnell is struggling with the choice of either cleaning up his act or dancing another tango with the "street life" is what causes friction between the two.
Ms. Hayes takes us on a journey with the character's relationship, and we really get to understand the meaning of "opposites attract".
