Cairo captured my attention quickly, but lost it just as fast. I like the wittiness, sassiness and brashness of his character Bianca; unfortunately after that all is lost. A great character and little to no story. Instead, Cairo , via Bianca, vents, narrates and gives readers a piece of his/her mind. A monologue, if you will. Occasionally a small anecdote from the past is told. But, again, where's the story? Readers stand still in time while the main character finds something else to talk about, much of which is repetitive, and ultimately leads back to sex. Don't get me wrong, some of her observations are on point, but then what?

Bianca has sex. Bianca thinks about sex. Bianca wants to have sex. Bianca remembers good sex. Bianca remembers not so good sex Then it's back to Bianca has sex. Are you dizzy yet? High off of sex-overload? Gratuitous, detailed and graphic sex doesn't a story make either. Throwing out the words d*ck, p*ssy, nuts and clit may work for some, but this reader needs an actual story It was like the author was trying too hard. Here's my chance and I may never have this chance again so I'm going to cover everything! I also felt the author was looking for shock value. Upping the ante. Instead of just mentioning a dude's balls, let's talk about their size, shape, texture, the amount of hair, smell and taste. But then what? I know what his balls looks like, but how does that advance or better the plot?

This style of writing may work better as a `Ladies, listen up' type of blog or a self help book. But when you're going to write a book, you need to write a book. Tell a story with a plot and some structure. "The Man Handler" was a never ending carousel of sexcapades. I got rug burn and whip lash trying to keep up.

I've read this author as himself (yes I know who you are) and twice as Cairo now. He has talent. And I like what he's doing with his alias. The potential is great. His characters are memorable. But bring it down a notch and get back to the basics of telling a story. Like "Kat Trap," this was simply too over the top. You kept it too cute! Somewhere lost in translation was a plot, I hope.

Hated the style of writing; could not get into this book for anything in the world. It is the first book I have never finished reading. The way the main character talks about things was horrible. I hated to put a book down, but I couldn't finish reading it. This is my last book by this author; just did not like the style of writing, almost like it was one big journal entry...sad

Love this book and It has Zane name on it my favorite author but Cairo did the Damn thing with this book after I read it my niece read it also I also brought several of his books

CAIRO WON ME OVER AS A FAN THIS WAS THE FIRST BOOK I READ FROM HIM AND WHEN I TELL U I COULDNT PUT IT DOWN I LOVE THAT HE KEEPS IT RAW AN TO THE POINT I JUST LOVE HOW HE KEEPS IT NASTY LMAO!

Bianca Rivers is a sex fiend - sex addict - sexaholic - sexy nympho. Just thinking about it will have her juices flowing and ready for someone to come and handle her like they know how and how she prefers. Bianca is a sexy woman with her own money, well paying job, own house, own car and no kids. She is a no nonsense type of chick. She knows how she wants it, where she wants it, when she wants it and expects nothing less. If you cannot handle it - you are quickly dismissed and easily replaced.
Besides some of the hot and steamy sex scenes, Bianca gives the ladies a lesson as well. She lets you know that if you are going to nag your man constantly and not be his personal freak in the sheets, that she will gladly put a smile on his face and send him on his merry way -right back to you. This is almost like a self help book for woman but nonetheless it was informative and will get your juices flowing. From talking to much about your personal intimate affairs with others, nagging, complaining, not taking time out to please `YOUR' man, getting to know who you're with, moving in with someone just because they can lay the pipe, and not asking questions will lead you to a dead end majority of the time.
Some may not like this novel, but I do and I give it 4 stars. It kept me glued from the first page to the last and I know when the sequel drops it is only going to be that much hotter.

Yes, Cairo takes you there and back! From the very first sentence I was hooked. Couldnt put this book down. Damn good read, must warn you though: READ WITH YOUR LOVER CLOSE BY!!!

This book was incredible. A real must-read. I loved the way that Bianca was so in control and sometimes not. She new what she wanted and didnot want. The whole time I was reading this I kept wandering why she was so "Hard" and kind of heartless. But she had been hurt and she didnt give any man a chance to do it again. So she set all the rules and if you didnt like it then "Oh well" there was someone else who would like it. She just acted just like most of the guys act- their way or the highway.

This book really caught my attention but it got to be a little slow but it picked back up. it was a little redundant too. I would recommend it to others!

I love Cairo's work, but this...this was just a running commentary of acts. Where is the story? Where is the plot? It's not in this book. Please get back to what you do best, tell a great story,

Bianca is cold, she gets what she wants from men and kicks them out. She has no problem saying that she is a ho and wants nothing from a man,but what is between their legs. This book was wonderful. Ladies, you need to read this book, because this is the view from the other woman. The sex in this book is hot like fire. If your married or single or dating, you can learn alot from this book. She tells you why men cheat and what they talk about when they are with the other woman. I absolutely loved this book and it put me in check on some things that i needed to step up on in my relationship. Not only is exciting, but it also makes you think ladies. Cairo has done it again. I can't wait until the next book comes out. I just might read this one again!
