CHANGES is the revolving story of 20-somethings Lelani, Jasmine and Moe, players in the game of love--all at different skill levels.
Lelani is the rookie, a mere virgin to both love and sex. Best friend Jasmine has had her share of rocky relationships, including a strained one with her baby's father. And Moe is the stud extraordinaire, who's had more women than she can count (or keep up with). These unique women are looking for different things from love--until their paths cross in several different and dramatic ways.
Jasmine, who says she's bisexual, begins a sensuous flirtation with Moe, who regularly visits Jasmine's self-owned salon to deliver FedEx packages or to get her hair hooked up. They have a great first date, and although Moe believes Jasmine could be "the one" to make her give up the game, Moe still can't let go of her wicked ways.
Meanwhile, Lelani is looking for "the one" herself. She thinks she may have found it in L.D., Moe's best friend. The pair meet one day when Lelani is distraught and strike up a quick friendship that gradually turns into something more. But all the romantic dinners and picnics in the park dissolve after Lelani asks to meet her mother; L. D. simply can't take it there because of the ex who still has a piece of her heart.
This is when the drama erupts. There's a lot of back and forth, but the story ends happily, with everyone gettng their relationships intact, even playa-playa Moe.
S. D. Lewis created a credible plot that keeps you riveted. She manages to give each woman a distinctive voice, as each woman has her own story to tell and changes to make.

I'm in the minority by giving this book 3 stars instead of 5 like everyone else. This was a good story, but parts of the book seemed like a broken record (i.e., "they just did that"). The characters, although misunderstood by everyone around them, are likable and smart. However, they are mostly untrusting and cannot make committments (to themselves or to others). The book's format keeps the reader interested, but the overall story is depressing. Except for the excessive slang, the language is moderate and the sex is relatively non-descript.

To get the most from this story the reader should be melancholy, as it will likely bring down a good mood and reinforce a poor mood.

I must say... based on the reviews, I was leery of purchasing this book, but I am glad I listened to the better of the reviews, and my better judgement. This book was awesome, I read it fast... almost too fast, and I was sad when I had finished it in under 3 hours.. LOL ok well I speed read too, but that does not by any means discount the excellent story line, and engaging characters this piece of literature has to offer. I look forward to reading the follow up to this book, which I should receive by monday of next week if not by the end of this week. I think in the meantime though, I will reread Changes while I wait. :)

This book was very entertaining. I could relate to the characters and they were real to me. I'm honestly hoping there will be a sequel. I wish I could meet the author and get a signed copy.

I really like this book. The character Moe in particular. I think I'm Lelani...

This book held my interset from the intro to the epilogue. Great Book!!

U have got to read this and I'll tell u why. I have never read anything like this before. This book is real, it has to be. I mean, first there's Lelani. She seems all prim and proper, but later on in the book she seems a heck of less than perfect. Then, there's Jasmine aka Jazz. She seems kinda like me. She doesn't take nothing off nobody. She very no nonsense, but she kind of drops that when it comes to Moe. Now Moe, is just... I mean, I know that the character is a she, but it seems like she's is a he based on how she acts and how she talks. Her friends are like that too. This book was different and entertaining. I was up til like 2'o'clock in the morning reading this book I was so glued.

All I can say is u have got read this!
