Review:

NBA star basketball player Dallas Avery is engaged to his best friend, Tori after she’s helped him through the most trying time of his life. For Tori, there are far more important factors in choosing a mate than love. She found those qualities in Dallas and is now enthusiastically planning the wedding of the year. Thanksgiving dinner exposes Dallas was in love prior to meeting Tori, with a much older Alicia. Dallas obviously never resolved his feelings for Alicia. Tori, resolves not to lose the man of her dreams, by any means necessary. This three-way love triangle is risqué to say the least. There were so many twist revealed in this story.

While reading Open Door Marriage, the twists and turns were astounding. Not only were the main characters storyline well developed and presented, the secondary characters had a storyline of their own. When the drama unfolds throughout the book, you will be left with a slack jaw and angry feelings for some. Open Door Marriage was my first read by this author and will not be my last.
