A Dirty Little Reason

by Barron Smith

The story of 3 average guys who are natives of Atlanta wanting to make extra money outside of their day jobs. Nick a dread-lock wearing; savvy hustler gets influenced to start an escort business after meeting a beautiful black and Filipino exotic dancer at the local club. The only problem is convincing his friends to help with his new idea. His friends (Mark and Reggie) are devoted to their blue-collared lifestyles and want no part of Nick's brainless scheme. After convincing Katrina (exotic dancer) of the protection he would provide and the amount of money they would make, she finally agrees to it. With Nick's plan in motion, Reggie decides to go along with them since Nick was able to convince such a beautiful girl to be their main attraction. They first target a rich business owner by black-mailing him with video recordings of Katrina and him in a hotel room together. With evidence like this, he's willing to pay a large sum of money to make sure the video doesn't end up in the hands of his high powered lawyer wife. THE PLAN WORKED and after a few more hits they're raking in the money. BUT WHEN YOU MIX BEAUTY, JEALOUSY AND GIRLFRIENDS, SOMETHING IS BOUND TO GO AWRY!!! Katrina is nearly raped on several occasions, so she is skeptical of continuing. Nick crossed the line by introducing her to HEROIN to ease her mind. As Katrina gets deeper in her addiction, she's doing any and everything for money. She even comes between Nick's friend and his fiancé. A love triangle has formed and one of the 3 guys pays the ULTIMATE PRICE to hide his DIRTY LITTLE REASON!!!!

The description of this book seemed interesting, but unfortunately the book just was not. The writing was so mediocre, and the plot was just all over the place. One moment good guys down on their luck decide to pimp out a stripper and black mail the johns, next one of the "good guys" gets her hooked on heroine, next their robbing banks, going on trial, poising their wives, committing suicide, it was really just a big mess. I also think the author didn't follow through on promises made in the story. There were a few instances of people plotting their revenge after getting robbed, but nothing ever came of it. The loose ends just weren't tied up at all. I would definitely say skip this one.
