About this audiobook
In this smart and sexy novel from Blackboard best-selling author Yolanda Joe, Bebe Thomas is looking for love. Her first date with Isaac Sizemore seems like the start of something big, until she catches him on the phone with another woman. But this "woman" is actually Isaac's 13-year-old daughter, Dash, who misses her mother and quickly pegs Bebe as the enemy. As Bebe and Isaac struggle to make their relationship work, Joe frequently changes the perspective, allowing each individual a chance to shine. A full cast of talented Recorded Books narrators captures the unique spirit of every character in this exuberant tale.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Bebe (Beatrice Mae Thomas) is a single woman in her 40s looking for love. Isaac Sizemore is divorced firefighter father also looking for love. Only problem is Dashay Sizemore, Isaac's thirteen year old sass of a daughter. This teenager has abandonment issues and expresses she not ready for mom to be replaced (despite the fact mom deserted the family) through rap songs. An interesting love triangle is in the works. This could get messy. Only, it doesn't. Not really. This could be a story you see on the Hallmark Channel; something Lifetime for Women. It's ending is predictable and sweet and the drama (violence, racism, addiction) along the way is quickly extinguished. Written in short, choppy sentences, this is a quick yet delightful read.My only criticism? The inclusion of Sandra Mae Atkins, Bebe's best friend, as a voice. Sandy's side of the story seemed to pad the book for length. She didn't have much to do with the relationship between Bebe and Isaac. For balance, Joe could have included L.A.'s gambling addiction from his point out view. That way, both friends of the couple shared their supporting stories.
