"Your typical "I love my man so much I'll even lie to myself to keep him." AJ loves Dray, who loves him - but only in secret. Dray gets a career and a woman, but insists on keeping AJ as his "man on the side" and AJ, for all his intelligence, goes along with it in order to prove his "love." I found the Dray selfish and demanding, AJ weak and unimpressive. The ending felt entirely too "slapped together" and rushed. This book was average."
"How far would you go to protect the one you love? When loving someone, should you be able to tell the world or should it remain a secret? Is it fair to drop everything every time someone asks you to be there for him or her? "Basketball Jones" is a novel by E. Lynn Harris who once again outlines and write a FABULOUS story about love and what it can take you through. AJ Richardson and Dray Jones have been in love for 7 years. Did I say in love for 7 years, I meant secretly in love. Or is it really a secret. Dray has been the one living the double life while AJ kept their relationship a secret all of this time. Dray is a star basketball player who lavishes both his wife and his lover in order to have the best of both worlds on the court, off the court, in his home with his wife, and with AJ. Does being in love mean you have to sacrifice everything in order to please your mate? E. Lynn Harris touches on love, secrets, friendship, trust, and blackmail. Does the relationship between AJ and Dray survive it all?"
"Much of this was a soap opera. There did become a mystery element halfway through, and I was intrigued to see how that would play out. But for most of it it was kind of a sappy romance novel. The characterizations were strong, but of a variety of weak-willed characters!
It was, however, a very quick read. I read it in one afternoon!"
"Such a smooth read. The drama wasn't all that exciting since there were too few characters to really maintain a mystery and the sex wasn't particularly hot, but it fine light reading. I hadn't read any other E. Lynn Harris but I might go for one that's more middle-class than this book's milieu."
