Lynn Harris, devouring each book as soon as I could get my hands on them. Not so much this one. The story is average and predictable. Very disappointed! ( ) It fulfilled my expectations and I was not disappointed. I did enjoy it because it was different from my usual reading. The book was different from others in the genre because it did not follow the usual romance formula. The plot pulled me in. The setting was not a character but it did come to life. I did not really feel like I was experiencing the time and place. The book could have been in a different place and it would not have mattered. A different time would have changed how the characters handled the situations. The book did not end how I expected. It did fit the genre. The scope is very small with few characters. The author was the narrator. It was very fitting. I found the characters realistic. I would like to meet Jade and Sisqo. I liked AJ, Jade, and Sisqo. I disliked Mo and Judy, and Dre. The actions seem possible because I know people can be awful and people do many things for the ones they love. I would not have made the same decision as Dre, Judy, or Mo in the decisions they made. The characters are believable and develop fully. Basketball Jones is the story of Aldridge “AJ” Richardson and his boyfriend, NBA star Dray Jones. They’ve been in love for seven years but must keep their relationship a secret to avoid jeopardizing Dray’s career. Dray even goes so far as to marry a woman, Judi. Trouble ensues when someone starts blackmailing AJ and Dray and threatens to expose them. I listened to this book on audio and I think that added to my enjoyment of it. The narrator, Mirron Willis’s voice is as smooth as silk and the tone he used for Dray was incredibly sexy. The blackmailer’s identity was supposed to be a mystery until the end, although I had it figured out well before AJ did. I didn’t mind though because I loved the characters so much and was having fun following along, even if it was predictable. AJ and Dray had a very tender, loving relationship and I enjoyed that aspect as well. I’m sad that E. Lynn Harris passed away earlier this year. This is the first book of his I’ve read and I’m looking forward to reading the others. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
Aldridge James ("AJ") Richardson is a kept man and Drayton (Dray) Dexter Jones is the man who's footing the bills. The only problem is that Dray is a rich, handsome NBA star ... who just happens to be married. When someone tries to break up their happy home, the blackmailing begins and the drama ensues.
