Let me start by saying how much I love Ms. Lee's work. I've been a fan of hers since the "All That and a Bag of Chips" series with Craig and Vernice. I thought there should have been a sequel to Brotherly Love with the way it ended, but wasn't for sure. I read this book in one day and ejoyed everything about it: the drama, the strongholds, and yes even the sex (it was not too graphic, but yet steamy enough). However, I didn't know Mason was that deep in adultery as explained in Unspoken Lies. You would have thought the adultery started with his undercover work in Brotherly Love. But in any case, I found Mason to be a weak man throughout the book. This book should have been about the Unspoken Truth which is, the marriage between CJ and Mason has long since been over; but yet they were trying to make it work for the sake of the kids. Mason knew he had a weakness for women, one in particular, but wouldn't tell CJ the truth. Mason also knew who was "sexting" him and wouldn't say. And the drugs, since when did Mason started dabbling with drugs?! There was so much you learned in this book that wasn't brought to light in the prequel. You wouldn't have ever thought this of Mason's character. However, I was glad to see that Vincent and Mason was able to keep their Brotherly Love in spite of certain situations and the drama.
Overall, an excellently written book. It ended like there may be a sequel. If so, pleeease Ms. Lee don't keep us waiting.
