have to give credit where credit is due and Mary B. Morrison aka Honey B is an excellent writer. The character's were real and the story was fast-paced.It was about three men and one woman, all of whom have been married for 10 years and none of them are faithful. It was a wild ride into their sexual exploits and it is not for the weak at heart. I thought I was open minded and can usually read a book without being overly judgmental about the morality of the characters. This book proved me wrong. There were times I was shocked, repulsed and down right disgusted by the things the characters did.Herschel was the down-low brotha living the life of a single husband, sexing women when deep down he really wants to be with only one man. I think I like him the most, because although he was a heartless jerk, I feel I understood his plait in life. He felt unloved, unappreciated and he didn't really like himself.Brian was a selfish, egotistical sex addict, who I believe loved his wife, but didn't feel the need to control his sexual urges.Nikki was a cold, heartless man-hater. She's a successful woman in a male dominated society. She's lost, confused and somewhere a long the way she's lost her femininity. I believe she truly thinks she has grown testicles and gets pleasure from emasculating men.Finally, Lexington is the black Adonis. He's successful and gorgeous on the outside, but weak and vulnerable on the inside.They all have one thing in common. They think there measure of success can be bought, while inwardly the are empty and pitiful, but you won't feel sorry for any of them.Like I said this book is not for the weak at heart and is extremely sexually graphic, but underneath the endless sexcapades is a really good story. It left me feeling thankful GOD that I love and respect myself too much to do some things. Well done Honey B! I am sure a few reader were shocked at the over the top sex acts. For me this Erotic fiction filled with drama was well written, you could feel the good, the bad and the ugly in each character. Even felt some sorrow for a couple of the characters. This story invoked anger, laughter and sadness, it was a page turner to see what these crazy characters would do next, not to mention who would do it next.My favorite quote from the book is : "I'm very serious, mother".
