3.0 out of 5 stars A Woman Scorned..., December 8, 2009

GAME RECOGNIZE GAME by Terry Deron is a story of four individuals that are in the prime of their life. Tracy Spencer is a senior in college where she interns at one of the hottest radio stations in town. Troy Vincent is her sexy boss and is known as a real ladies man around the office. Simone is one of Troy's "jump offs" that also works at the radio station. Unfortunately, she does not see her role as a "jump off." When she catches Troy and Tracy in a compromising position at the office, she decides to exact revenge on both of them.

Mark Parvais is a star cornerback and one of the top ten NFL prospects in the country. A secret he is keeping from his best friend and roommate may destroy their friendship and the teams morale. Each of these individuals lives intertwine and no one will be the same when it is all said and done.

GAME RECOGNIZE GAME by Terry Deron shows how "hell hath no fury like that of a woman scorned." This is a story of sex, lust, lies and betrayal. The story has a nice flow and moves fast, making for a quick read. Unfortunately, I felt there was too much going on within the story that overshadowed the main plot. Also, I did not think it was necessary for the author to repeat what happened in a previous scene with a different character. Although I realize this was to get that character's point of view on the situation I felt it was totally unnecessary. I think the author did a very good job; the storyline drew me in and I had no editing issues with this book. I look forward to reading the sequel to see exactly how this story is going to play out.

This review is from: Game Recognize Game - A Novel (Paperback)

GAME RECOGNIZE GAME is a perplexing novel that dives into different situations that force four young adults, who are attending a historically black university, into an intense game of lust, lies and deception. Tracy Spencer is a senior in college where she interns at one of the radio stations in town. Troy Vincent is her boss and is known as a real ladies' man around the office. Simone is one of Troy's "jump offs" who also works at the radio station. When she catches Troy and Tracy in a compromising position at the radio station, she decides to exact revenge on both of them. Mark Parvais is a star cornerback and one of the top ten NFL prospects in the country. He struggles with the responsibilities of fatherhood while trying to enjoy the benefits of being an athlete. A secret he is keeping from his best friend and roommate may destroy their friendship and the team's morale. Each of these individuals lives' intertwine and no one will be the same when it is all said and done

GAME RECOGNIZE GAME was an extremely gratifying read. I haven't read a book this exciting and intense in a long time. I couldn't put it down; I was up all day and night, forsaking everything else in my life so I could finish this book. This is a definite must read by all. The story has a nice flow and makes for a quick read. I was left on the edge of my seat and I'm waiting on the sequel, so I can see exactly how the story plays out.
