Alexis Gibbs, addicted to a controlling man named Jarred Simmons who has given her nothing but empty promises and broken commitments, must choose between being Jarred’s mistress forever or moving on and starting a new life with a new man.
As young as age ten, Alexis Gibbs is caught up in the goings on of her parents' marriage. Her father is a known womanizer who can't help but cheat. He obviously loves his family, yet, he continues with his uncontrolled lust forcing his wife to act out viciously. Will this behavior encumber little Alexis in her future?
Constant turmoil, empty promises, looking over your shoulders and late night creeps are all roles a mistress must endure while playing her role as number two. Is Alexis fed up enough with her understudy role or is she willing to continue on in hopes of becoming number one?
While reading MISTRESS I have to admit that I got confused very early into it. While I did find it to be a rapid read, I also found errors and characters' names placed in the wrong places and some very unlikely drama, in my opinion. While I can't say that any of that detoured my completing the book, I am questioning if URBAN BOOKS will continue to get my money.
WELL.....the spelling and grammar are not the best. I have had this experience before with urban fiction. However, I did enjoy this book for what its worth. I would consider reading another. You think there are any jobs out there editing these urban selections, Ill sign up.
