Breakups, cheating spouses and plenty of sex are found between the pages of Love Lust & A Whole Lotta Distrust by DeiIra Smith Collard. Synegy Wireless is the home-away- from-home for these four vivacious, sexually-charged women. Nicole and Kendra are best friends, but Nicole is a ruthless, loveless, manipulating woman who will stop at nothing to get the man of her dreams. Even if that means hurting and destroying her best friend's marriage. Carmell and Natina are hired at the same time, and build a quick friendship but Natina has ulterior motives and crosses the line as far as Carmell is concerned. When will these women grow up and stop fighting over men; men who do not belong to them or who are only interested in them for sex? There are a lot of secrets and lies hidden behind the walls of Synergy Wireless. And Natina and Nicole are out to share everyone's hidden lives. Take this wild ride with four crazy, deranged, depressed and in denial woman as they make you double check yourself. Did I ever act like that? Or, I know someone who acts just like that! I found myself trying to predict what was going to happen next and if they would continuously keep making the same mistakes. This is a very entertaining book and you will keep asking yourself why as you turn the pages to see the outcome. Reviewed by: Cheryl H APOOO BookClub --CHayes Apooo BookClub
