From time to time, we all make decisions we are too ashamed to admit was not the smartest thing to do. However, in the moment of the decision, no one could say anything to change our minds. That's exactly what happens to Jay Jarvis when he decided his wife, Alicia, was no longer what he desired. He wants out and she grants his wish. Be Careful What You Ask For by Angelia Vernon Menchan shows how one man's haste to have a different type of woman in his life, made his wife available to other men's desires.Alicia has always put her children and Jay first. She never worked outside of the home, but she did continue her education. Jay leaving her could not have come at the right time. She had all she needed to stand on her own two feet. She is a strong woman and deserved better. As she embarked on her new beginnings, Alicia begins to learn some things about the different people in her life. When a new man starts showing interest in her, Alicia feels more alive than ever before. However, Jay doesn't like what he is seeing. What will he do to prevent Alicia from being happy? Does he have that type of power over her?Mrs. Menchan has done it again. She has written a story that people can relate to. She has created characters that are complex and sharp, like Alicia's mother, Agnes. Some parts of the story I could envision on headline news. I cannot wait to read more about these characters, because I am absolutely positively sure there will be more from them. Even with the few editing mishaps, I recommend Be Careful What You Ask For to readers looking for fast-paced drama and a little bedroom action, nothing over the top.The author provided a .pdf version of the book for review purposes.Jennifer CoissiereWords Mosaic Reviews4.5 Mosaic Stones
