Review: Mmm mmm Jayson....
Rating: 5 out of 5

Not to say that this book ended on a cliffhanger but it definitely had me one-clicking the second book to see what happened. Every chapter was a page-turner like that. What I love about this author is she can make every single character relatable and she didn’t falter from that model in this book. Mistress is about a woman named Keisha who regular readers of Nia Forrester might remember from the book Commitment (which I’ve read 5 times … oddly enough, I was itching to read again after finishing Mistress). Keisha is forced to make some life changes in this piece. Her “boyfriend/benefactor” suddenly dies and she realizes that she has nothing in the world but the judgments (good or bad) of others to fall back on.While attempting to stay with her reliable father, she comes face to face with the man who is now occupying her room, Jayson. Jayson is her worst nightmare … gorgeous and dangerous. He is her kryptonite and now she has to share a space with him. But like Keisha, Jayson has issues of his own to deal with but once in contact with Keisha neither of the two can keep focus.I was rooting for Keisha and Jayson from the start. I even got annoyed with the constant references to her ex Charlie because I yearned for more KeiJay … yeah, that’s right, I have given them a cool smooshed name. I did appreciate the back story … her take on what she did to become villainized in the book Commitment. I got it and I understood it. I didn’t forgive her too much though because I so loved those characters but I did understand how insecurities can make one do crazy stuff. But enough of this review, I need to start Wife.
