Growing up with someone doesn’t mean
you really know them. Jaynie finds this out the hard way
when she catches her fiancé enacting his threesome fantasies
out with the Bambi from across the street and his best
friend from college. Devastated doesn’t even begin to
describe how Jaynie feels when her fiancé decides to cut her
to the core by also attacking her femininity. Needing to
feel better about who she is as a woman, Jaynie decides to
ask her business partner for one night of no commitments, no
holds barred action. Brian has always seen Jaynie as his
business partner and his sister’s best friend, the night he
and Jaynie spend together changes everything. Now he’s no
longer sure he can go back to just a co-worker and friend.
The business of mixing friendship with pleasure is always a
tricky maze to maneuver. One of the Guys gives
an up close and personal look at how emotional entanglement
is easily one sexual encounter away from happening. Jaynie
and Brian have known each other for years, but until the
evening they crossed over to becoming lovers neither knew
how well matched and suited they really were. Shiloh Walker
is an expert at creating stories with some hard hitting
issues, consciously or not I was impressed with how she
dealt with date rape. Since more than likely it isn’t a
stranger but someone you know who is most likely to harm
you. One of the Guys is great story but then I
never expect anything less from a woman who has become a
master of the written word. |
