Now this is what I'm talking about!

Don't read this book until you've read the pre-quel! The hotness continues in No More Playa's! I thoroughly enjoyed Ms. Jackson's take on REAL people. It wasn't just your cute conventional way of finding love in book number one and definitely not in number two. Sometimes love can come in the most unexpected places from the most unexpected well put together folks! Great job in the flow of the book and the characters were believable. I felt as if knew them. Lance, brotha, you are so blessed! LOL!!!! So glad Lance got another chance to make it right. That's what its all about, making things right and boy he didn't give up! He refused to take no for an answer and went after his girl!....Sorry for all the exclamations people but I really enjoyed this wonderful feel-good novel......GO AND GET IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!....You will not be disappointed!!! Thank you for this feel-good Ms. Jackson!

Satisfying Romance!!

Dr. Lance Montgomery had messed up big time. As a relationship expert he's lived the playa's life, including giving workshops and writing a bestselling book called The Playa's Handbook. In his efforts to prove that he really didn't need any woman and that Dr. Asia Fowler hadn't really touched his heart, he'd deliberately hurt her. Now Asia is engaged to another man and Lance, having realized his mistake, is waging an all out campaign to win her back. But Asia has already had one bad relationship and she's determined that Lance is not the type of man she needs. Can Lance convince her that he's changed and ready to me more than a playa? No More Playas is the sequel to Brenda Jackson's The Playa's Handbook, which I have read but I did not enjoy half as much as No More Playas. However, although I enjoyed finally seeing Lance and Asia finding their way back together, it wasn't their story that kept me turning pages. Lance's sister Carrie and her relationship with Conner stole this story from their first meeting. Carrie was abused as a child and is being sent pictures by a blackmailer. She's goes to Conner, a private investigator, for help. From that point forward, Lance and Asia fade into the background. I found myself thoroughly engrossed with Conner finally finding the one woman for him, and with Carrie finding the man she could trust enough to overcome the issues from her past. Brenda Jackson's No More Playas was a thoroughly satisfying romance! Melissa Reviewed for Joyfully Reviewed

Brenda does it again!!! Worth the wait!

This book is soooo hot!!! It's the sequal to The Playas Handbook and Brenda Jackson makes the wait for this book so worthwhile! Lance got what he deserved...he suffered for a while and had to prove himself to Asia in order to get her back. And I must say, Asia is a very lucky woman because his skills in the bedroom are the bomb, not to mention his romancing skills (the flowers, his heartfelt words)! Carrie (Lance's sister) and Conner definately sizzle!!! Glad to see that there are no more playas! I would like to see another book detailing a romance/courtship with Lyle and also one with Logan and Claire (Aisa's sister)!!!

excellent second chance at love

Psychologist Dr. Lance Montgomery became famous (infamous in some circles) when he wrote the best selling seduction manual THE PLAYAS HANDBOOK. This self help reference book helps males score without commitment. His tome leads him to confrontations with an enemy combatant, psychologist Dr. Asia Fowler. However before he realizes that he is in love, he hurts Asia driving her into the arms of humanitarian relief worker Dr. Sean Crews. Lance misses Asia and now realizes he is ready to do the unthinkable commit to a long term relationship with the woman he loves. However, Asia is now engaged to the nice caring Sean. Though an impediment, Lance begins his moves with a zeal like none he has everfelt before. He obtains her schedule and appears "by chance" at events she attends. Still he betrayed her once and he is known as the playa's playa so he must find a way to earn her trust because the passion between them could provide a century's worth of energy for a Caribbean island. There are other subplots involving his two pals ready to marry the women they love and his sister caught in the middle of a blackmail scheme, but the prime story line is the second chance at love between the hall of fame playa and the psychologist he cherishes. Lance is terrific as he employs his honed skills in relationships to make it with the one female who scorns him although he swears he is NO MORE PLAYAS since he wants to be a one woman man. Though this tale can stand alone, contemporary romance fans will enjoy reading both delightful tales. Harriet Klausner

Hot, Hot, Hot!

I must say that I am lifelong fan of Brenda Jackson, but not of sequels, as most times, they do not measure up to the original story. I must say that Brenda Jackson did not disappoint me at all. This book is HOT, HOT, HOT! I am so glad that Ms. Jackson decided to finish the story of Asia and Lance. Wow! What a story and what an AUTHOR!! This story was wonderfully developed, with really two story lines. Both couples kept me turning pages! This is a MUST READ!
