UNMASK BOOK 3-TAKING THE NEXT STEP (ePub)

A year has passed for Anya, Royce, Leah, Bryce, and Sebastián. Are you curious as to what has happened? You'll be delighted to know that this book picks up right where the previous one left off. The characters have undergone significant changes, and their lives have taken unexpected turns.

Royce and Anya now live together at her place. After discovering the paternity test results, Royce sold the house he shared with Skylar to Mr. Overton. He and Bryce are completing the first phase of constructing affordable homes for first-time buyers. Royce also transformed his condo into an Air BNB and is converting the remaining space downstairs into one or two-bedroom suites, potentially with a small restaurant in the back of the building. Anya returned to work part-time and helped at the boutique with Mrs. Margaret at least twice weekly. She sees Ocean occasionally when she comes in and works with her great-grandmother. Sebastián and Anya are still friends, and they finally had the opportunity to clear the air between them.

Sebastián had flown back with Ja'Nae to Paris after ensuring Margaret was good after being released from the hospital. He spent time with his grandfather Artisan, Mrs. Sylvie, Artie, Daphanie, Jocelyn, Stuart, and son Cameron. He also has developed an excellent relationship with Margaret. He now sees where Ja'Nae and he get their stubbornness from. That Caribbean momma doesn't take any mess.

Like Ma, she will fuss you out and ask if you want something to eat in the same breath. Sebastian now knows what it's like to feel almost complete.

Pictures of Anya invaded his mind. He could not get her out of his head. He was good after he cleared the air with Anya regarding their relationship last year. At least, that is what he told himself. The chemistry between them was electrifying. Whenever he saw her, he wanted to take her in his arms and not let her go. He knows this will not happen because she is now in a relationship with Royce. And she says she is in love with him. Suppose he had only told her how he felt.

The last year with Bryce has been a fairytale. Leah had grown and evolved as a person and certainly as a woman. Suppose someone told her she would be in a relationship and living with a man a year ago. She would have laughed at them. But Leah still found herself pinching herself to ensure she

was not dreaming. They are still learning about one another. And have disagreements like any other couple.

After their first date, the driver brought them back to her place. Leah invited Bryce to stay because he still needed to make accommodations for lodging. Although he looked and smelled good, Leah had to remember what her Granny said, "Your

Body Is Your Temple, And It is Sacred. Be Wise As To Whom You Allow To Enter It." Even though they had an excellent evening, he was still not getting the cookie. In this instance, Leah needed to think like a man and act like a woman. Thanks, Uncle Steve! That night, Leah and Bryce made it official. They were in an exclusive relationship.
