Review
I enjoyed Consequences immensely. During my reading, I could concentrate on little else. I could not put the book down. I almost missed my train stop and, later, stayed awake half of the night captivated by this dramatic tale. It had me laughing, crying, and reliving some personal experiences. Skyy is a refreshing addition to the world of fiction. I look forward to reading more of her work. --Renair Amin, CEO of Pmyner, Ltd.

If the cover alone doesn't grab you, by the time you reach page 2, paragraph 2, it's too late - you're hooked. Skyy has been called the "lesbian version of E.Lynn Harris," and Consequences is her Invisible Life. Choices may have introduced the world to Skyy the author, but Consequences may well define her as the architect of urban LGBT culture. Choices fans will gasp, cry, and laugh uncontrollably as they follow the characters they adore through the pain and triumph of dreams fulfilled and lessons learned the hard way. Newcomers will fall in love with the "bruhs" and the"ladies," and find themselves engrossed in the characters as if they were their own crew. Consequences takes you into the daily lives of real people who we all can relate to in some way. They are our friends, our lovers, that girl you knew from college, the one you let get away, and the ones you never saw coming. If you're looking for a book to pick up every now and then and work your way through, this is not the book for you. I promise, it will have your partner on the verge of divorce due to neglect! --Tiffany Adams, QMocha.com

Totally Worth the Wait
So like many I have been waiting on this book for a very long time. I got my book this morning, finished it, and now I am very very upset....

I'm upset that I'm done. WOW is all I can say. I could not put this book down. I can't believe the direction some of the characters have taken but it was wonderful. You can see Skyy's growth in this book. The sex scenes were AMAZING so much better than in Choices. The characters are well written. Denise shows a new side to herself and so does Cooley who I think grew the most out of everyone. Carmen, all I can do is shake my head at her. MISHA all I can do is shake my head at her. I feel like I have seriously been on a roller coaster and I'm ready to ride again.

Skyy is the lesbian version of E. Lynn Harris. I don't want to read another book I want to see this become a movie. This book was well worth the wait.

Kudos Skyy I am very very impressed.

MIND BLOWING-BETTER THAN CHOICES
I read Choices and was very excited to read Consequences. This book was amazing!!!! I loved Choices, but honestly Consequences is better. The drama is 10 times better, the sex is 100 times better. You see how much people can change in one year.

the thing that I like the most is that even though she added more drama the story still seemed very real. She didn't add any off the wall stuff like some authors do. I know plenty of people that many of these situations have happened to or could happen if they don't straighten up the way they act.

Denise and Lena...All I can say is I can't wait for book 3.
Cooley, damn bruh went through it but I think it made her stronger.
Misha...Shaking my head at her.
Carmen and Nic..Clapping my hands for them.

And I love that more characters were added.

I wanted Choices to be a movie, well I changed my mind. CONSEQUENCES should be on the big screen for real.

GIVE ME MORE SKYY!!! Best author I've ever read.

And So It Continues...
It seems that Skyy teased her readers with her debut novel, Choices. Now, she is back with Consequences and will surely solidify her name on some reader's favorite authors list. Choices left us wondering quite a few things, but Consequences bridges the gap.

Lena is in a position that most women dream of being. On the verge of marrying the fabulous basketball star, Brandon Redding, she still has unresolved bi-curious issues to address. And no matter how good being Mrs. Lena Redding sounds and feels, there is a part of her that belongs to Denise. Will her emotions threaten her marriage? Or will she dismiss them as mere curiosity and live the high life with Brandon?

Denise is not without complications of her own. Although she lost her grandmother in the first book, Denise still uses her as inspiration to finish college and possibly join the WNBA. But she still has a burning desire to be with Lena. These feelings appear everywhere; even when she is embracing other women. Will Denise decide to let Lena be? Or will she destroy a marriage before it even begins?

Cooley is not the same. The old Cooley a.k.a. Killa Cap is in love, but love may not love this player. Things may not have worked out the way Cooley wanted, but Misha has her heart and that cannot be denied. Cooley tones it down hoping Misha will one day decide their relationship is what she wants. But will Cooley be able to accept that Misha may not be the one for her? Did she give up all the fly chicks for a dream?

Carmen lives an almost perfect life with her lady, Nic. Nic loves Carmen and there is nothing she will not do to prove it. But Carmen has yet to let go of the insecurities that plagued her in Choices. Will Carmen lose the best relationship for her? Or will she let go of the past and work on her future with Nic?

Skyy is definitely an author to watch. She executed a well-written novel and paid very close attention to detail. Consequences is a great example of friendship beyond measure and how we have to live with the aftermath of our decisions. The sex scenes were more than off the chain. Skyy went a little further with them than in the former. Be warned, the drama is not over. I recommend Consequences to everyone who read Choices and those who enjoy drama and jaw-dropping reads.
