Ok, so I had gotten this as an Amazon freebie and I’m glad I did because this was an entertaining read. However, I sure as hell would have not paid the $9.99 they are charging for it now. It’s mainly an affair/cheaters book. The first story was my least favorite story and the least justified affair for me. It is about Ken who cheats on his devoted wife, Monica, with a manipulative woman named, Susan. I thought the story had a good start. It had kept me intrigue…for awhile. It just seemed to go downhill. The end was very unsatisfying for me. Nobody had gotten what they deserved. I also feel like you’re left hanging without a conclusion. I wish it ended differently. The second book was about Camille who was engaged to a cheating bastard named, Jake. However, she meets a man named, Paul, and falls in love with him too. Now she has to choose between Jake, who she’s been loyal to for 3 years, or Paul, someone who is finally loyal to her. This conclusion of the story was much more satisfying to me than the first one. Everyone had gotten what they deserve and I’m so happy Camille chose the right guy. The last story was of Kristie and Ted, college sweethearts who were separated by distance. Years later, they are both married to other people and yet they both still feel that they are soul mates. This story also has a very unsatisfying ending for me. It had me in tears. Oh how I wish things were different. Their affair didn’t upset me as much as the others. They both seemed to belong together but sometimes life doesn’t work out the way you plan.
I would not call this book erotica because this book doesn’t have any sex scenes at all. I was disappointed that there were no steamy sex scenes…there wasn’t even any sex scenes. For a book about affairs you would think that there would be a whole bunch of steamy scenes but there were not any. In scenes that there was suppose to have sex in it, the author just wrote a sentence that just said that they had sex and that was it. It kind of disappointed me.
This book kind of makes it seem like cheating is ok. The cheaters in this book never seem to get what they deserve. I absolutely hate cheaters. Personally, I do not feel that they deserve to have the happy ending. I understand people make mistakes but in reality cheating is just a way for people to be selfish. I guess sometimes when people cheat it is actually justified but with other cheaters that are selfish they just stop caring about what’s important. Reading about cheating does seem to provide a lot of angst and entertainment. Cheating is not ok in my book but it does provide for an interesting read.
