SOMEBODY ELSE’S MAN by Daaimah S. Poole centers around the life of Nicole, an operations manager at Choice Springs Hotel in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It is a job she struggles not to quit daily. After being scammed out of her hard-earned money, she is forced to move back home, with her mother and step-father. Something she really did not want to do! Her mother is an overbearing shopaholic, that is addicted to buying everything off of QVC or HSN.
Nicole is in love with a married man, who keeps stringing her along with the hopes that he will soon leave his wife to be with her. After years of his broken promises, she slowly begins to realize that is not going to happen.
When Nicole’s best friend, Tia, crosses the line in their friendship, Nicole decides to severe all ties with her. Will she be able to forgive and forget? When Dre, a sexy business man enters the picture, he proves to be a much needed distraction for Nicole. Will he be what she has been praying for? Or…will he prove to be like the men in her past relationships?
SOMEBODY ELSE’S MAN by Daaimah S. Poole is a story of friendship, betrayal, love and lies. Although it was a quick read, it lacked the action and drama that I would have expected a story such as this to have. However, the story was adequate and I am sure that fans of Ms. Poole will find this book to be enjoyable.
