The Game by Shawnte BorrisReview by Mary Beth4.75 Stars"This is a man's world."Well no one told that to Kristen Backhard. She is a sexy beautiful woman with a take no prisoner attitude which suit her just fine, especially since she is a Senior Negotiating Executive. She isn't afraid to be herself and is thankfully a strong yet vulnerable woman who is comfortable in her own skin. This book follows Kristen and her group of family and friends through what seems like a lifetime but in reality is a short blip of time.During this time we have Betrayal and heart break, Family issues (her mom is nuts), love and romance, life and death, forgiveness, some more love and romance, hot steamy sex, and endless possibilities. I found myself laughing so hard my sides hurt, envious of the love and friendship these characters have, wanting to knock some sense into her mother, wanting a twin so I could have that bond, covering my mouth in shock while saying "Oh my god!" and crying because something beautiful and terrible happened at the same time (thanks for that *sniffle sniffle*). I was emotionally exhausted by the end of this story.The only thing that I was disappointed I didn't see in this story was a conflict resolution between Kristen with the misunderstanding,  I also would have liked to have known what happened to the plane. There were also some typos and grammatical errors but it wasn't enough to take away from the story.I am very excited to find a new author that I will be following especially since there is going to be another story that follows the same group of friends. Hopefully it will be in the same style of the multiple POV's throughout the book.
