Involved in a Threesome of My own.
I was involved in a threesome of my own: this book, the Sandman and myself. The Sandman had to wait on me because I was up until 4:00 AM finishing this fast-paced, sexually charged novel titled Threesome: Where Seduction, Power and Basketball Collide.

Meet Sasha, a thirty-something modern woman, who finds herself in one of the most unthinkable situations and then proceeds to let her life spin completely out of control. Men, money, and self-destructive behavior aids in her hurricane funnel and one could never predict where it would touch down. Walking through Sasha's life as an observer, I found myself talking to her the whole time, but she never listened.

Brenda L Thomas tells a fascinating tale of a woman who struggles through life making poor choices that have heartbreaking consequences in this 138 pg. novel. This book grabbed my attention from the beginning and didn't let go until she was through with me. I appreciated the narrative of different points of views and the tact that was used in racy sex scenes. This was a quick and easy read. My only disappointment came at the end, whereas a reader, I recognized it couldn't have possibly ended any other way but I still wanted something more. This book may not be for everyone because of the sexual content. If you don't mind that then you will enjoy this.

Intense!!
When Brenda L. Thomas read the prologue to Threesome at an afternoon Montsho Booksigning, I knew I had to buy the book to finish the story...and I did that very night! This is an exciting, easy-to-read, page-turner that anyone can enjoy.

The story is largely narrated by Sasha Bourianni, an attractive 38 year-old executive secretary whose affair with a married man triggers a series of events that sends her life into a whirlwind that includes a career change (a personal assistant to an NBA star), relationship issues with her employer, her ex-lover, and the new love of her life. This is a short novel (about 130 pages) but the author gives us enough background on each character to help us understand their motivation and get into their psyche. For example, Sasha's views of self worth stems from a life-long longing for her mother (who died while giving birth to Sasha) and a childhood of being raised by a hustling, swinging father. Quite naturally, these experiences and unresolved issues shapes her adult ideologies on men, love, and sex and eventually explains her constant self-destructive behavior.
The supporting cast of characters was interesting as well and some had a few secrets and drama of their own to keep your nose in the book. I will admit, that based on the title and subtitle, I didn't think it would be the type of book I would want to read. But after the first few pages, it was clear that my preconceived notions about the book were wrong. I was hooked from the very beginning through the very end. This is a perfect book for a lazy summer afternoon...

Good things come in small packages
True, Threesome is a short book. Anything less than 200 pages nowadays is considered a rarity. However, often, authors fill those extra pages with fluff and irrelevant information. This is not the case with Threesome.

Our heroine, Sasha, is a woman unconvinced that she is deserving of a life void of drama. So she encourages, if not creates, it. After a major incident she is forced to part with her lover, who also happens to be a married man. But when real love comes knocking, will Sasha deem herself deserving or will she create another episode in the self-destructive life she has built?

Thomas' writing is good. Her storytelling is great as she accounts Sasha's saga through first person narration.
