Drama With a Capital D!

Thank you for calling Synergy Wireless. If it's drama and scandal that you want, it's drama and scandal that you'll get.

Employees Nicole, Kendra, Carmell and Natina all crossed the line of co-workers to friends, but it's a decision they all may come to regret.

Nicole Neatherly wants what she wants and what she wants is call center cutie Jason. Despite the fact that he has bedded practically everyone in their department, Nicole thinks she is the woman for him. The woman that will change his whorish ways. The one woman he will want to settle down with. And Nicole wants him at all cost and is willing to do whatever it takes, no matter what or who it hurts, even a friend.

Kendra Dubois has a secret; a dirty little secret. She has her cake and wants to eat it, too. Trouble is, she won't be the only one affected by her crave for something sweet. Just how far reaching are the effects of Kendra's explosive secret?

Carmell Devereaux is head over heels in love. She has found the man she is going to marry, the man of her dreams. Little does she know that he may not be the man of just her dreams. Will the best woman win?

Natina Mayes doesn't get mad, she gets even. When her advances toward a fellow employee are rejected, all is fair in love and revenge. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.

True to the title, there was plenty of love, lust and distrust. Drama was good and plenty. I hated to see it come to an end. Newcomer DeiIra Smith-Collard has delivered an impressive debut. This very entertaining and emotionally charged novel is a gem. DeiIra is definitely an author to watch.

Thank you for choosing Synergy Wireless. Have a nice day!

Too much

This book was just too much of everything. There wasn't a real flow; to the point I had to force myself to read it. I thought it would get better, but that was after the fact. I think it could've been better or its just me. I read over 75 books a year and a few will be reviewed this way, due to people's personal experience of their life and imagination.

What's the point?

This seemed to go nowhere fast. I don't get the point if there is one. A few coworkers who travel in the same circles and bed the same people. Not for me; I gave up at 25% and that was giving this book an honest try.
