Okoye Franklin resides with his grandmother in one of the toughest counties in the DMV, Baltimore. Killings, robberies, and the like happen in broad daylight daily. Being raised by his grandmother has sheltered him from a lot of mayhem he could’ve been easily pulled into. Completing his education, respecting himself and his elders, as well as staying to himself, Okoye is on the right track to avoid becoming a statistic until one dark evening changed his life forever. After a mistaken identity for rape, Okoye was sent to prison for a crime he didn’t commit. Okoye could’ve made a bad situation worse; however, while in prison, he furthered his education and found love. Will Okoye be able to pull himself out of this slump, or will he give up after going through so much at such a young age? In Hidden Beneath It All, secrets are revealed, and people Okoye placed in his past resurfaces.
I really enjoyed this book by Lore. I have read a few books by this author and once again he didn't disappoint. I really like Okoye and his relationship with his grandmother Lola. The bond they had was unbreakable. I was happy when the truth came out and Okoye was able to get back to the life he missed. I really like Daniella she is a sweetheart to continue to help out because of her love for Lola. I like Daniella and Okoye's relationship I just hope his secret doesn't damage her. I will say David popping back up is annoying me. If Daniella gets hurt because of the secrets I'm going to be so mad. She truly deserves the happiness and I think Okoye give that to her.
Whew chile, these folks bout messy as can be! Okie really gonna go meet up with David and he probably got his sister pregnant? Mama Lola rolling around in her grave at these folks! I need part 2 yesterday!
This was a good book it shows how you can love to different people and not know they are from the same family (shout out to the author Lore ) what an amazing story teller
