A Good Wife
Alesha prided herself on being everything that her husband Malcolm wanted or needed. With two young children, they still had a wildly passionate sex life. So when Malcolm challenged her to make one of his fantasies come true, she turned to her best friend Traci for help. Traci was sexy and uninhibited, and it didn't take much coaxing to get her to agree to help Alesha with her dilemma. What started out as an innocent adventure quickly turned into a suffocating web of secrets and betrayals that threaten to destroy not only their marriage, but Alesha's life.

Wow! I think I want to blame Alesha for allowing a man to manipulate her like that. She lived to please Malcolm. There is no way I would’ve consent to her husband fantasy. He was selfish for ever asking her that. A man I was in a long term relationship in tried to get me in the same kind of entanglement Alesha was in. Nah bro ain’t no polygamy this way I’ll pass. Traci wasn’t Alesha friend in the first place. Best friends don’t backstab each other like that. Point blank period!

This book depicts women who have no identity, power, self-worth or common sense. It is a very sad read. Alesha was gullible and easily manipulated by her husband. She degraded herself in every way to please Malcolm. Who is the epitome of a self-centered, flea infested mutt. Who didn't give a damn about his wife or destroying his family.
His control over Alesha is scary. Their relationship was one-sided with Alesha being humiliated at every turn.
The more I read books like this really highlight how desperate women are to have a man even at the risk to their health.
The sad part is she has a daughter who more than likely will continue this unhealthy pattern of dating.

WOW! JUST DIRTY!
This is my first read of Kenya Moss-Dyme and although I would have appreciated a different ending, I absolutely LOVED this fast paced, erotically, twisted read!
With Alesha being the so called "Good Wife" there is little to nothing she won't do to please her husband Malcolm. Including inviting her BFF Traci into their bed! Just when they ALL thought they had a well planned HAPPY THREESOME, it quickly snowballs into a love triangle from hell!
Bravo!
Can't wait to read part 2 and pick Kenya's brain for discussion!

This book drew me in from the beginning as Alesha's story unfolded...Well written with an intense storyline! Alesha went above & beyond in her attempt to satisfy Malcolm. Malcolm had a hold & control like no other! Traci was a character I couldn't help but to dislike-what a best friend! Looking forward to reading Traci's story. This was a great, pearl-clutching read!

3.5 This whole situation was a mess and Alesha was stressing me out BAD. I understand wanting to make your husband happy but girl there has to be a LIMIT. Bringing Traci into their bedroom was already asking for trouble, but Malcolm knew exactly what he was doing and that made me dislike him even more. And Traci?? Absolutely not. Your best friend of all people doing you like that is crazy.
I did like that there was more going on underneath everything though, especially with Alesha’s idea of what being a “good wife” was and how much of herself she was willing to lose trying to keep Malcolm happy. There was a little too much sex for me at times and I wasn’t completely sold on the ending, but the mess definitely kept me reading.

A Good Wife Indeed?
So, I don't normally read spicy books but this bool was highly recommended and for good reason. Alesha and Malcolm seem like a happily married couple with everything to live for. A beautiful child, home and life - until Malcolm asks to have a fantasy involving Alesha's best friend fulfilled. From there, the cringe began! Me screaming, "No Alesha! Don't do it! " at the book over and over as her seemingly perfect life started to show major cracks; imperfections that were there long before Malcolm's request.
While Alesha is discovering herself physically, her marriage is being attacked. And when the secrets come out and her life is turned inside out she will have to choose. Will she stick with her old life or move into something new?
On to Book 2!

Good wife
I blame Alesha's parents for bluring her view and expectations of what a good wife is. I applaud her mom for finally breaking free from her marriage but the damage was done to Alesha's psyche. People Alesha trusted did her wrong but I'm glad she found the strength to choose herself and her children. Traci I feel like wants Alesha's life and I kind of gritted my teeth once she considered counseling but honestly she probably needs it. I am interested in what she will reveal about herself.

Yuck. Zero stars.
I'm glad it was short. That was the best thing about it. I can't imagine being this in love with someone that I would throw myself away for them. The other person's happiness has to coexist with my happiness. Not just the husband gets to be happy and I get whatever scraps he throws me. The ending was unsatisfying. The guy is a total douchebag. The best friend is scum. Why would I care about her story? Just no. It was so ew.

A Good Wife
Wow! This was a spicy read with a definite twist. It grabbed my attention from the start. I wanted to say that Tracey was a piece of work. But I think too I was could say that Tracey was too. The betrayal and the way they initiated deceit with Alesha. A very interesting read that would make a good movie.

Awesome read!
This story was the bomb. Traci was a poor excuse for a friend and Malcolm was a classic narcissist. I like how Alesha chose herself and her peace over the BS. Awesome story! Highly recommended!

Listen!
I jumped into this book - first page had me like... "wtf?!"
The more I read, the more I was intrigued about this marriage. I wanted to know more about about Traci! Because how can this just be so simple?
And I mean, a mother ALWAYS knows...
Spicy read with thought provoking story line.

Aleesha!
Aleesha was a good wife to Malcolm and a great best friend to Tracy so she never saw a betrayal coming or did she? I love how the author sets this story up for the reader. Can't wait to read what happens next!

I was totally surprised when I started reading, and surprised in a good way. The title caught my eye and after reading the synopsis, I was sold. I started reading thinking it would have been a story about a wife who did everything for her husband, only to catch him cheating, and the wife would have harmed him. It was definitely great to read something different from what I originally thought, and a story that was so intriguing. Once I started reading, I could not stop and finished it in one day.
After I got into the story, there were a couple things I saw coming, but it was definitely a great story.

This is the first book I have read from Kenya Moss-Dyme and this fast-paced, sexually charged book didn't disappoint.
Alesha, the Good Wife, would stop at nothing to please her husband Malcom including inviting another woman to their martial bed. Not just any woman, her best friend, Traci. As this story unfolds you realize that Malcolm had ulterior motives from the word go.
Ask yourself, what lengths would you go to keep your man satisfied?

Malcolm had my blood boiling. OMG. It took a while, but I'm glad Alesha realized what the heck was going on. I need Part 2 ASAP. I need to see that her best friend and husband get what's coming to them two trifling behinds. Ugh. Loved it. Got my blood pressure up!!!!

This was a really good book, the story flowed well, lots of sex scenes, my only concern is I wasn't sure what type of job the led character had, it was never elaborated in the story. The message I feel I received while reading this book was to never trust your husband around your good looking friends... I will definitely recommend this book to others.
July 29, 2015
A little too much explicit content, but a good read. This wife took trying to please her husband too far and lost herself in the process. Need to get part 2 so I can see what happens next, although I am really in my feelings about Tracy and her lack of friendship skills. Will be reading part 2 after I regroup.

You are going to love this
Alesha was a good wife, too good for that bastard, Malcolm. It's erotic with a lot of surprises. But you will enjoy it. Traci was NOT a good friend to either of them. I wish that the end had been different, but I liked that Alesha made her decision and stuck to it.
Highly recommended

Well written story enjoyed every minute of it. The fact that she was able to open up and talk to someone was really good and she made a good decision on her part and for her kids in my opinion. Great read 5

A Good Wife
This was an excellent book. Malcolm had the best of both worlds. His plan was going well until the baby got sick. I felt bad for his wife because all she wanted to do was please her husband.
