Yes this is a novella, but it reads/listens like a novel. Also there are several big questions in this story. Did Rianna cheat or didn’t she? To be honest I say no. There are no legal documents, no signatures on the dotted line. Was she dishonest? Again I say no, she was curious, lonely, he was duplicitous in more ways than one. Does he love her, will he make it right? Yes he does, and no he won’t, did he screw himself, yes, and he deserved it.
You are probably asking yourself what is this woman talking about, well you will just have to read the story or as I did listen to Gina A Jones tell us this steamy tale.
I want to know what your answers are.
Thanks Andrea your stories are always mesmerizing
Awesome Story, Steamy & Enjoyable! Great Narration
The Other Man
by Andrea Smith, Laurel Landon
Narrated by Gina A. Jones
This is a fabulously enjoyable and entertaining story was part of the “Steamy Shorts” Novella Series. I am a huge fan of Andrea Smith’s work, I love her writing style and the stories she creates and it is great to once again see another side of her creative mind as she raises the heat level several notches. The characters are nicely developed, they are likable and easy to connect with. Rian Roberts is a kept woman, her married lover, Preston Barringer II, is older than her but he treats her well and she is happy with him and their arrangement. But when she starts to feel like she is missing out on things she joins an online chatroom using a different name called the “Owners of a Lonely Heart” where she meets Nathan. The two become friendly and then arrange a secret & steamy rendezvous while on a holiday vacation. I must say wow, I loved how everything plays out in this book, the story is cleverly plotted and the twists and turns were brilliant and unexpected. There is an impressive amount of story in this novella sized book and I loved every word of it. Thank you Andrea Smith for another awesome story, and that ending, great way to keep your readers and/or listeners thinking!
And for the narration, Gina A. Jones does a great job portraying the characters, bringing them to life, giving each their own voice and personality. She sets the perfect tone for the story, captures the character’s emotions, as well as their passion which is reflected in her performance. She is an entertaining storyteller and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for the great listen
The Other Man
by Andrea Smith
Narrated by Gina A Jones
Don’t let the length of this nugget fool you! Andrea Smith packs a complex story in this short! Rianna has been with Nathan for several years. She is well taken care of, but she want more than to be the other woman. Marriage, children, all the things he can’t give her. Seeking solace online, she decides to meet her chat buddy for an anonymous night of passion. And it changes her life. Twists and turns in this gem left me guessing, and the epilogue blew me away! The story has us rooting for Rianna, questioning Nathan, and the surprised at the chat buddy. I loved when a story isn’t predictable and leaves me thinking. Narrated by the fabulous Gina A Jones, I was pulled in from start to finish and enjoyed every minute.
