Do You See Yourself as the Wife or Mistress?,
By
This review is from: Mistress (Paperback)
Mistress by Meisha J. Camm is a fast-paced, read-in-one-sitting, filled book. I was so overwhelmed with the great descriptions of the characters, that I could visualize them. A story well-told from the beginning to the end. Alexis is the main character and she grew up in a household full of cheating and bad treatment, so in her adulthood she follows what she saw. With low self-esteem and craving unconditional love, Alexis makes bad choices when it comes to men. Looking for love, acceptance and honesty she hooks up with Jarrad.
Jarrad is a smooth-talking, good-looking, man who knows which buttons to press to get what he wants from Alexis. Jarrad's only concern is getting his own needs fulfilled, not really caring how he leaves Alexis still craving for attention. Settling for less over and over again, when will Alexis wake up and realize that she deserves better than the relationship she is in with Jarrad? Jarrad has a hold on Alexis that you would not believe and Meisha is so candid with the details you find yourself running, crying, and wishing for the best all at the same time. Can Alexis find true love? All she wants is a man to call her own or will she forever be known as the Mistress? This book is for anyone who has doubts about self-love, or is in an unhealthy relationship with a married man. Reviewed by: Cheryl H APOOO BookClub

Irreparably Damaged,
By Nardsbaby "Connoisseur of the written word™" (Westside Chi-town, IL United States) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE)
This review is from: Mistress (Paperback)
As young as age ten, Alexis Gibbs is caught up in the goings on of her parents' marriage. Her father is a known womanizer who can't help but cheat. He obviously loves his family, yet, he continues with his uncontrolled lust forcing his wife to act out viciously. Will this behavior encumber little Alexis in her future?
Constant turmoil, empty promises, looking over your shoulders and late night creeps are all roles a mistress must endure while playing her role as number two. Is Alexis fed up enough with her understudy role or is she willing to continue on in hopes of becoming number one? While reading MISTRESS I have to admit that I got confused very early into it. While I did find it to be a rapid read, I also found errors and characters' names placed in the wrong places and some very unlikely drama, in my opinion. While I can't say that any of that detoured my completing the book, I am questioning if URBAN BOOKS will continue to get my money.

Sex, Lies & Infidelity,
By
This review is from: Mistress (Paperback)
Alexis Gibbs spent her youth watching her parents constantly fighting over her father's multiple infidelities. Alexis grows up only to find herself in a similar situation. She's found the perfect man. Problem is...he's someone else's man. Has she learned anything from the pain of her childhood? Will she settle for being a mistress?
Chocked full of drama, MISTRESS is a very quick read. At times, however, the timeline was confusing and the dialogue unrealistic. Even though, it has its moments and kept my attention. Not quite a four-star read but above three stars, MISTRESS is entertaining and worth the read. This was my first for this author so I wasn't quite sure what to expect. But overall I was pleased and would like to read more of her work. 3.5 stars
