Book Review: Broken Promises by Darrien Lee

Broken Promises by Darrien Lee

In this fourth installment of the Denim Diaries, Demin introduces us to her new coworker Levar and his sister Tiffany.

Levar is the new intern that makes his debut at the very end of book 3 (Queen of the Yard). Tiffany is Levar’s younger sister and competes in Double Dutch tournaments. His family has had very troubling time in the last couple of years with the loss of their father, leaving their mother, Regina, and the two of them, until she meets a man by the name of Dexter. Dexter and Regina have been dating for only six months but both have strong feelings for each other. Levar uncertain how to feel about his mother dating another man, but one thing is for certain, he does not trust an older man around his little sister.

After the party held at their house for a special event, Tiffany withdraws from everyone and everything, even the passion Double Dutch. Denim overhears Tiffany crying and is trying to figure out what is wrong with her. Levar also notices the change in his sister and is very concerned. What happened to Tiffany? Does it have anything to with Dexter? Who got hurt and why?


The book is definitely a recommended read for both teens and parents. There is never a dull moment as you enjoy the offering and the superbly crafted and surprised laden plot will always keep guessing. The offering is perfect for any gender between the ages of 12-17.
