4.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining!
I've had this book a while and last night I picked it up and didn't put it down until I was finished. I have read about the whole swinging thing but never have it been told the way Torrian tells it.
Rena and Greg are the married couple who bite off a little more than they can chew in this tale. Rena is sick of Greg cheating on her throughout most of their marriage...

This review is from: Swingers (Paperback)
I've had this book a while and last night I picked it up and didn't put it down until I was finished. I have read about the whole swinging thing but never have it been told the way Torrian tells it.
Rena and Greg are the married couple who bite off a little more than they can chew in this tale. Rena is sick of Greg cheating on her throughout most of their marriage. When she confronts him they both agree to get counseling. When the doctor advises them to bring another woman into their bedroom Greg is ecstatic; now he can have his cake and eat it too! But Rena has a secret desire; she's always wanted to have sex with a woman.
And so the stage is set...swinging internet chat rooms, meetings with other interesting swingers and sex, sex and more sex.

This book will have you hooked from beginning to end. I laughed so much reading it. I think Rena is one mad bitch...what she asked her husband to do...I was like "No she didn't!!" AND...he actually does it!!! What a f****** idiot!
Torrian Ferguson has written and erotic, sexy novel that will be the topic at the water cooler for some time.
The book has a lot of grammar issues and inconsistencies but the story is excellent and I enjoyed the read.

4.0 out of 5 stars Short very nice story !, January 18, 2006
This review is from: Swingers (Paperback)
This book will have u sighing and shaking your head ,The plot is very entertaining.A cheating husband,a frustrated wife,in order to work on their marriage they follow a Dr prescription,that requires them to have sex with other people.Hoping this would stop her husband cheating on her back ,Rena,accept to have a menage a trois with a woman,which always been her fantasy ,as the story developed I found myself very into it ..I finished reading this book in less than 6 hours.I wrongly assumed this was a sexual story without any thoughtful message in it ,was I wrong,at the end of the book one of the carachters s wisdom will play a major role in the wild couple s lives,making them realize that he only thing that could ve saved their marriage is God.

This review is from: Swingers (Paperback)
This book from the first chapter had me laughing my behind off. The husband and wife in this book are so crazy...no the two are beyond crazy. I loved it and will definately read this for years to come...especially when the drama in my own life isn't enough. The book is really good and I suggest to all book lovers to add this one to there collection. It will make you laugh, cuss, and root for the charectors as you go along with them on a hellava roller coaster ride.

Love, Peace, and Good Reading!

5.0 out of 5 stars When a Woman's Fed Up....., September 7, 2006
This review is from: Swingers (Paperback)
What truly happens when a women is fed up? This book definitely takes you on a journey to see just how sweet revenge can be or not be. This book really opened my eyes to the Swinging Lifestyle in the Black community. The author touches on a lot of themes in this book: trust, infedelity, family, male/female double standards,fair weather friends,divorce,forgiveness,revenge,etc. You get a great story line, steamy sex scenes, and believable characters. It is a great read. Hard to put down. Torrian Ferguson is definitely bringing a new twist to Black Erotica. Watch out Zane!

4.0 out of 5 stars Having Your Cake..., January 13, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Swingers (Paperback)
That's what this tale centers on. Husband Greg admits he has it all...good looks, good job, a sexy adoring wife and beautiful daughters. Problem is - he can't (or won't) stop cheating with other women. Greg's wife Rena is tired of the other women especially when she receives a phone call from on of them!

To save their marriage Rena suggests counseling...the counselor suggests an alternative lifestyle (swinging). What Greg doesn't know is his wife has developed a "curiousity" for women. Rena's goal is to use swinging in an effort to meet her desires to be with another woman...Greg on the other hand feels this is his chance to be with as many woman as he possibly can.

In their game of self revenge (because that's what is turns out to be) Rena and Greg enter some unchartered territory regarding themselves and their marriage. They also learn some secrets are best left behind closed doors - as word of their newfound lifestle hits the surrounding community. They'll see the effects it has not only on them, but their children, their friends and ultimately their careers.

This was a tale of sex, love, selfishness, revenge and then some! All in all a great read -- sometimes I couldn't put this book down. The books starts slow..but when it picks up, it picks up.
Aside from a few typographical errors...this couldn've been 5 stars.

4.0 out of 5 stars Swung!, September 8, 2005
This review is from: Swingers (Paperback)
I found Swingers to be a very interesting book that touched on issues I have not read about in any other books recently which is the main reason I had a hard time putting it down. I found the book very eye-opening and not only gave me a glimpse but a nose dive into a lifestyle that is rarely talked about in the African-American community. I think the book is a great read and serves its purpose...to entertain. I was laughing and shaking my head through-out the whole book. If you are looking for a book that is going to have up all night going page after page then this is it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Swingers Delight, May 25, 2005
By 
Louise (Chicago - I'm back home FINALLY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Swingers (Paperback)
My mind has been opened up in a whole new light. Mr. Ferguson not only killed my curiosity now but he has also answered a whole lot of questions I had about swinging.

Upper middle class couple Rena and Greg (Tonya and Derrick if your swinging)with two beautiful children are out there bad. One's fantasy and a big mouth has opened up a whole new can of worms.

This book had me hooked from beginning to end. I give a thumbs up to Torrian.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Grass isn't Always Greener, January 7, 2007
This review is from: Swingers (Paperback)
Well, first off I must say this was the first book I'v read by this author and I was impressed. The title of the book gives a accurate account of what this book is about. It's about a couple who wants to bring a little excitment into their bed room by of course swinging with other couples. What seems good isn't always good in the end because folks never think of the conquences of their actions and choices. Anyway get ready to read a true pager turner that will have you shaking your head and and saying out loud, the grass isn't always greener on the other side.
