Turning the Tables: Who Holds The Power
After a career ending football injury years ago, Deacon Powell has managed to flourish as a successful businessman in the sports management arena. He feels like the world is his own personal oyster with unlimited pearls and he can have whatever and whoever he wants. But Deacon has devastating secrets that could cost him his marriage and perfect life if they were to ever come to light.
Macey Powell, wife, business partner, and the force who's driving successful sports agent, Deacon Powell, has been the devoted, loving, loyal, supportive woman standing behind and beside her man. She has been there through it all from the tumultuous years of rehab, fledgling sports agency, to the growing empire they now manage. Mrs Powell has made it her business to be the best wife and friend Deacon could ever want.
But Ladies, you know that saying "What you won't do, another woman will"? What about when you've done it all, plus some only to find out it wasn't enough?
Well meet Jordan, who's not quite ready for a commitment. Is dealing with her own past issues with men but has no problem sleeping with a married Deacon and then sending him back to his beloved loyal wife.
What happens when Deacon's overly stuffed closet of secrets finally bursts open, & his perfectly separate worlds come colliding full force into one another?
Will Macey recover from the betrayals of the man she worships when she is forced to face what is revealed? Has Jordan played this game too long? Will it be too late when her indiscretions come back to haunt her? Will Deacon lose the best thing that ever happened to him? Or will he be able to salvage the love he's been taking for granted for far too long?
Karma has a funny way of turning the tables...Find out who holds the power.

Turning The Tables
This was my first read by the author and I really enjoyed it. The title is a perfect fit. Deacon and Macey are a happily married couple or at least that's what Macey thinks. The ending is shocking and I can't wait to see what happens in part 2.

Story was fickle and lacked character development. It seemed to be all over the place, predictable and written adolescent like. The editing was off as well making it seemed as if some parts were run on sentences. Some parts had scene transitioning issues. The delivery of the story didn't hold my attention

Them Tables have really been turned....
I must say this was a different read for me and I enjoyed it from start to finish. Watching this story unfold had me on the edge on my seat. To have a man like Deacon who is powerful, charming and knows his way around the bedroom to have him damn near begging and pleading. To watch Macy be the devoted one who will do anything for her man, to having all the cards in her hands. This is one roller coaster ride that is well worth it. I must say I can't wait for book two, two see what Jordan, Barnard, Macy, Karlie and most definitely Deacon.
Kudus to Miss Amari!!

This was an enjoyable reading experience for me. I am so ready for book two. Turning the Tables was well written, and kept my attention the way through. It was differently a page turning success. This was my first read by A'mari G, but I will be adding more of her books to my library very soon. Great job A'mari G!

Damn
Deacon is something else. How do you stalk the mistress & then get mad cause she dumps you? I hate how Macey found out but glad that Jordan had the courage to do the right thing after doing the wrong thing! I know Deacon got more secrets hiding in a graveyard with Lisa......hope that comes out as well!!

Deacon has really done it now. All of his past indiscretions have come back to bite him in the butt. He has made everyone mad. What is he going to do now? I guess he's not the person holding the power after all.

That Deacon is something else! I don't know how Deacon thought he could get by with what he was doing and, not get caught up. I am glad his wife wasn't one of the crazy one's. now, he thought he was going to get her back but, with the way the book ended...it is for sure over.

Deacon Powell is one cold hearted piece of work. He's truely the definition of worthless but truth is he knows it. He knows his value all to well, but the woman around him thinks he's a god send. All except one. Jordan is not blinded by the swag. She's a powerhouse in her own right and plays when she see's fit. The luxury doesn't appeal to her because she has her own. Macey however is head over hills in love with everything Deacon Powell brings, compassion and those heated nights of fire and desire. She's the driving force to his empire, the chef that caters to him. Then one day poof, a fire is lit and the tables that once held those special lunch breaks comes burning down. Initially it seemed like Deacon was the king of cheaters, and Macey was so freaking guillable. The constant reminder that he wasn't $*** was a bit annoying and the pick up took some time for me but the story line was well thought out. The eneded was definitely a surprise, Karma is definitely a B*****.

Turning the Tables
OMG, I honestly don't know where to start! Deacon is a mfer! Sad to say that there are actually men that think the way he does. Macey is a beast in every aspect. She is definitely a go getter and handles herself in a professional manner. I feel sorry for Bernard. But I hate we didn't get his reaction from that little bomb Deacon dropped. There are also a lot of Jordan's in the world. Something happens to them growing up that changes their outlook on relationships. Poor Karli, young and naive. I can't wait for part 2!

Never ever has a main character got on all my nerves like Deacon, NEVER. He got on my nerves from the first page.... he got on my nerves on the last page...... but I couldn't stop reading and I can't wait until part 2 to find out what this fool is going to do next. Good read and definitely worth your time

Ok read 3 1/2 *
This story is full of lies and deceit . Deacon is a lying mofo that's about to get what he deserves from his wife macy .I hated the grammar errors and one minute he was NBA and other times NFL . I enjoyed Bernard and Jordan story I wouldn't mind reading more of them .
