5.0 out of 5 stars Second Chance
Well written novel with fully developed characters. While I don't understand the whole swingin' thing, I really liked Karla and how she was driven sexually and professionally. Not sure whether I liked Karla's husband by the time the book ended. Sybil was cool and it was interesting how she exercised her demons thru her dominatrix role. But Adina, . . .

1.0 out of 5 stars Where's the drama?
I read over 56 chapters to get to the juicy stuff and there was NONE! There was no drama what-so-ever! It was a good story line and could have been a great book but there was no climax, no drama. It was very disappointing. Lance was getting on my nerves with his damn baby girl and his sappiness. The entire book was annoying. Thank God I got it from the library!

This review is from: After Hours (Paperback)
Well written novel with fully developed characters. While I don't understand the whole swingin' thing, I really liked Karla and how she was driven sexually and professionally. Not sure whether I liked Karla's husband by the time the book ended. Sybil was cool and it was interesting how she exercised her demons thru her dominatrix role. But Adina, . . .

When Adina fled Brooklyn to start over in NJ, you really understood her fear and desire for a new life, totally different from what she was used to. She was very smart and calculating and I liked how she incorporated the "smarts" of her "streetsmarts" into her new life/personality. You know how we say, "if I knew then, what I know now" -- well, her story gives you the chance to see that wish come to life. What can I say about Lance, other than he's truly a "gentle"man.

Great book with lots of twists that left me thinking about the characters well after the book ended.

1.0 out of 5 stars So...its okay to be a liar???, November 7, 2008
This review is from: After Hours (Paperback)
I did not like this book AT ALL. The main character tells one lie after another, forgets about her obligations to her family and still ends up with her Happily Ever After! I mean Lance never even finds out her real name! I also had a very big problem with the author continuously referring to Dina as childlike by Lance. Okay that's just sick if he views her as childlike and then in the next breath is thinking something sexual. Don't waste your time on this book.

4.0 out of 5 stars "Naughty Girls", July 23, 2008
This review is from: After Hours (Paperback)
Let's see, the storyline was interesting and the characters...oh boy! Of the three(3)ladies, Sybil was a trip. Adina, Karla and their significant others were fun too. However, the ending was like a balloon deflating. Could have been better.

4.0 out of 5 stars NYC to Jersey, June 19, 2008
This review is from: After Hours (Paperback)
Swinging isnt my thing,but hey everythang aint for me. Adina,Karla & Sybil, were women looking to be loved and appreciated, but went about it in the wrong way. I didn't see the ending of the book coming, But what I was hoping for was that Sybil's husband would get a CLUE. Unfortunately that is what happens in alot of marriages. People put their heads in the sand and try to not see what is already there. I loved LL more than Adina ever could. I wasn't to thrilled about the ending, hoping there is a possibility of a sequel just to have Adina come clean. Also exactly how far is Brooklyn from Jersey. She needed to have run alot farther if she was scared someone was going to kill her

3.0 out of 5 stars Surprise by this one!, April 25, 2008
This review is from: After Hours (Paperback)
This is not what I'm used to reading by Rochelle Alers. First of all, no matter how much Adina tried to change, she was not likable and was still, at the end of the book, a lier! The whole swinging thing is just nasty and engaing in dominatrix to relieve your frustrations is just sick. A freak is a freak. You can't dress it up. If there are really wowen in this world living these types of lives, then the world is truly sick. But with all that said, it was an entertaining read. I do expect better in Rochelle's future books. Please girl, let's get back to romance and leave the trash alone.
