Choosing his career over a relationship, Blake Russell left Serena Howard in Philadelphia to pursue opportunities in San Francisco. After being away for almost a year and a half, Blake is back in the city of Brotherly Love and still holding onto feelings for Serena. Even with the time that passed, he’s never quite gotten over her or how their situation ended. Being back in his hometown, with memories of their time spent, Blake makes it his mission to check on Serena.
Serena’s life went from zero to 100 real quick. Graduating from law school, opening her own practice, and other life-altering events left Serena with little to no time to be stuck in her head daydreaming about the past or wondering “what if”. Her sole focus was on the things that were and the demands of her life.
With time, distance, and secrets between them, what will happen when Blake and Serena come face-to-face? What feelings will they invoke in one another? Love? Hate? Resentment? Will they be able to reignite their flame? So many things left unanswered. They both thought their paths were leading them in different directions, but there they were, back in one another lives, with so much energy swirling between them.

ð¥°love!
This is a solid read! I loved the ending. It took a lot of work but Blake and Serena got it together. I was hard on Blake for the way book one ended but he truly redeemed himself!!I think the way the book describes Blakeâs response after learning he is a father is very realistic. I loved the spotlight of Serenaâs postpartum depression- that is a topic that is not addressed a ton in books. I also loved that the relationship between Serena and Blake wasnât all peaches and cream- like they had to WORK on their relationship and building that trust with each other. This series was very good and I am looking forward to more of my problem babies: Kira and Haneef, lol. â¤ï¸

What’s meant to be will be…
Choosing Life over Love is something we all have to deal with. Blake took the scenic route to his forever love which cause both him and Serena a great deal of trial and error. Not wanting to deter Blake from his life goals she made the hardest decision of her life by concealing their child. She was hurt he chose career over their relationship but didn’t understand that he was preparing himself for her… The best gift out of this chaotic situation was their Love Child Blake Jr. Whatever is worth keeping is worth working for…. Setting aside all differences, they got it together… Great Read!

Blake & Serena pt 2
A great outcome to the cliffhanger ending of Stay A Little Longer. Blake and Serena took me on a journey in the aftermath of Blake finding out a year later that Serena had a baby after he had loved and left her to secure his goals. He got the shock of his life when he laid eyes on the baby that is his spitting image. And from that moment, it was on. There was drama from both sides, mixed with a lot of heatð¥

A great ending!!!
Book two picked up with Blake finding out a secret and he was pissed, to say the least. Serena didn’t expect Blake to return to Philly and she wasn’t ready to explain why she kept the secret. Serena and Blake still love each other but can’t get over the past hurts. They try working on being a couple but past hurts continuously get in the way. Eventually things worked out.Serena was facing so many demons this time and was having a hard time getting over them, but she did the work she needed to do and became better. Blake was hurt and couldn’t really forgive Serena for her mistake, but he knew she was who he wanted to be with.This book was emotional, and I felt her bit of this story. Serena and Blake were made for each other and put in the work to be together. I loved them as a couple and was happy it all worked out. I’m sad this is the end of Blake and Serena. I cant wait to see what happens with Haneef and Kira.

What a great read!
âYou captivated me from the moment I met you, but that day in this park, I knew everything about you was different. You had some much drive and ambition, and I loved that about you. I selfishly kept you close to me, knowing the timing wasnât quite right, but I couldnât pull back. I felt it in my heart that you were mine. Not for just a little while, but for forever.âââ Stay Forever by Shay Davis

The title says it all!
Well done Shay on ending this storyline beautifully, you put your all into it and it and I’m glad you shared it with us. Blake and Serena went through it all but the bond and strong love they have for each other trumps it all. I can’t wait for Kira and Haneef storyline, Lord I pray she gets it together and I always wanted to slap her through the book the way she was acting lol. Keep up the excellent work! â¤

I absolutely loved the 2nd book in this series
I absolutely loved the 2nd book in this series. As before, I couldnât put the book down. I dropped a few tears for Serena and was a little mad at Blake. I donât want to spoil the book by telling too much but believe me you will be happy with the ending. This is a grown folk book with grown folks handling situations that come their way. I look forward to reading about Kira and Haneef story because I know it is going to be FIYAH!

True Love
What a beautiful love story! This story had me on pins and needles. Was so shocked at what Serena did to Blake. Just wasn’t right of her not to tell Blake that she was pregnant with his child. It was not her place to determine whether he would accept the baby. Was glad that Blake forgave her even though it took a while and they got their act together. This was a very real storyline. Wonderful series ðð¾

The storyline was interesting, itâs shows you what real love is , and sometimes we make mistake even if we think that we have a good excuse to make them . I loved how he forgave her and decided to move on with their life .
