What Could Have Been? by John R. Williams starts off by taking us through the life of Brooklyn from adolescence to adulthood. A young man who loves the opposite sex, he encounters multiple women and engages in ménage a trios, orgies; you name it he is down for whatever.
He has traveled the world and bedded women of all calibers, from the shy, naive type to the wanton, lust-crazed vixen. During his travels he never denounces women, but that they all are different, and he has had his heart broken a time or two in the past. We then stumble across an accident where we find Brooklyn laid up for quite some time, with no details on how he got there or what happened.
The scenes were not consistent and then seemed to run from each other rather than embrace and creature a genuine story. While these tales are full of humor and very descriptive I left each chapter wanting to know more about the main character. I was baffled on more than one occasion while reading this book, however the ending was enlightening. Mr. Williams talked of a love worth dying for and it is evident in his acknowledgment to his dear wife.

The story was about several women experiences in the protagonist life. Each chapter held a different story creating a different scene fitting of the storyline. Don’t forget, the final chapter, The Awakening, was the epitome of the novel exposing the entire storyline while explaining the connection of each story.
Cheryl,
Thank you so much for taking the time to read and review my book. I am very appreciative.
I believe that successful authors must master the art of creating unique storylines that not only entertain you with sexiness, drama and comedy, but storylines that make readers think. My aim with this book was to force my readers to challenge the norm. Sidne was correct. Each story is linked and the final chapter explicates that perfectly. The actions of the main character snowball and just when you think you have it all figured out the twist compels you to consider the boundless possibilities of love and the power of imagination.
