Stranger In My Eyes: Book 5 of The Underworld

10000 Stars, ✨✨This Books has my head spinning! The underworld keeps getting BETTER! 🙌🏾Wow! So papa didn't actually kill Ben, why is Jordyn at Ben funeral, how come Lo didn't find out about her sister and Bens betrayal, why is Nas such a jerk, I hate him now! This story was tooooooo good! I hope in resentment all of my questions will be answered. Wow Nako you have really blown my mind with this chapter of the underworld! I can't believe after Lo gave this man her entire heart and risked her whole life for him he still left her for Jordyn! Where did she come from and how did they even meet! I had no idea that Lo and Nas had history that deep, all the way back to college! He's such a dark and evil man, so quiet and sneaky! To have Sasha try to kill her all because she was adamant about having Nas baby made me vomit! Sasha never got caught for that and neither did Nas! He makes my skin crawl! She moved on once she realized after all those years she put in with him he still didn't wife her but Jordyn! Oh and I also have a ton of questions about Mary Jane and Papa, is Mary Jane sick and why were they both beat up in the book and by who! Such a mystery! I love that Demi and Papa were included and how their marriages are working just like Malachi's and Jade. I'm just so hurt that Lo didn't get to marry Ben! I know Nas killed him, he definitely wouldn't have hung himself! This underworld series is so bomb that I never want it to end! God Nako how do you do this! God giving talent for sure! Even though power premiered tonight nothing tops a Nako novel or the underworld! I can't wait for Nas and Jordyn story or Noel's either!!!!!!!!

WOW. This was incredible. Worth the wait and more! I was captured after the introduction. NAKO I can never say how POWERFUL yours words are. When readers can become so absorbed in a book that it becomes a part of them, just know you are truly gifted. This book had me so emotional, its like I could feel her pain with each word I read. For some of us know all to well how it feels to give your all just hoping,wishing and praying for just a little in return. The pain she suffered from loving a man that failed to love her. He took away everything that could have possibly given her a bit of happiness. Yet he was involved with someone else. Some thought her a home wrecker, not knowing he was supposed to be hers to begin with. How could he make her 2nd? After all she loved him when he had nothing (not a pot to piss in) After all the hard work she put in for him & the Underworld, I only hope that before its all over that she finds true love & happiness. And Ben & Lori who would have thought, I guess he got what he deserved. That Sasha (never liked the b**ch), hope she gets hers as well as Nas (trifling a**). Keep blessings us with your jewels.....

Poor Lauren loving a man who didn't love her back the right way. Nasir can't properly love her, he really doesn't love himself. Stringing both women along, why? Then poor Ben, that was just so unnecessary and sad! Sasha is low down, wow! I wonder if everything will be revealed, only time will tell! I must keep reading because there is still so many unanswered questions. Why couldn't he just let her be happy, does the truth come out about what he orchestrated, will it ever be known what really happened on the morning of the wedding, what about Lori and her little secret! Too much, too much! Editing is needed in this book, lots of grammatical errors but I am really loving this series. Just wow!

The book was well written in regards to how it tied to the 4 previous/related books. There were a few editing mistakes but nothing too unbearable in a book this long.The book touched on several real life issues that women face: being there for a man when he has nothing but when he gets on he starts doing you dirty, good girl from a family with money falling for the poor boy with great sex, betrayal amongst family and associates, etc.*spoiler alert* I just really did not like the ending to the book at all, so I really wanted to give it only 3 stars. But after removing my emotions from it, I gave the book 4 stars. I felt the 4 previous books ended nicely for the main characters. However, this book ended horribly for Lauren, and that's discomforting. Lauren was raised in a Christian family in the church, strayed from the lord to live a life sponsored by drug money and crime, got her life back right with the lord and finally stopped messing with a man who did nothing but control her and play mind games, only to be majorly hurt at the end of the book. I felt like the book was a cliffhanger and that a part 2 (or 6) needs to follow up immediately. Like who killed her fiancé - her ex sex buddy and sponsor Nas, her sister Lori who was secretly sleeping with and pregnant by him, or snake Sasha who was an enemy disguised as an associate? Lauren did not deserve that heartbreak at the end after she tried so hard to get her life back right. That makes you lose faith in religion if this book is based on a true story!I also felt Lauren needs to know her sister slept with her fiancé and got pregnant by him, and that Nas tried to kill her and had Sasha try to kill her as well. Lauren was so blind and weak, it was actually somewhat heartbreaking to read.

I’m usually not a fan of very long series, but this one has been good from book to book. I’m still stuck at how book one began so the build up is wonderful. There’s a twist everywhere and they’re very fitting ones. I love this book about Lauren, very relatable. Each book has the wow factor you can’t forget. Even starting back from the books about the Knights.…..The ending took me clean out. I am very much ready for the Nasir and Jordyn’s story. Niggas ain’t shit. lol.

Where can I start reading all the books before this one I looked at Lauren as a home wrecker and was not to fond of her. But from the start of this story I saw how she wasn't that other woman ... There are two sides to every story now I know Lauren's and to say I amSad is a understatement .. Nas is beyond one of the most selfish men and the fact that this whole story hit close to home close to my heart reading this I felt Lauren's pain I know the feeling I could relate .... Nako has a way of bringing real life issues to her books no fairy tails but real s***!! She is my favorite urban author of this genre and can't wait till the next installment... Nako this book hit so close to home and my heart I just hope I get my happy ending!!

I have been screaming at the book, "No, don't do it Lo, open your eyes Lo," So far this has been one of the best stories in the series. Everything is tying together. Yes, there are grammatically errors, but as a reader, you get past that. I have a tendency to read the last chapter of a book before I read it, and when I tell you, that isn't even the half of it. Nako, keep writing. I wanted to know this story and thank you for writing it.

This to me was the best or one of the best books of the underworld. If you read the books before it had some repeats of the same stories you already know but seeing it from Lauren’s point of view and then the twists and turns going on in the background really set it off. I hold nas get his in the next one lol
