Product Description

Eric Jerome Dickey's boldly sensual new novel centers on what his fans love best - steamy romance and shocking betrayal. This is an edge-of-your-seat novel about a good man who loves his wife, Genevieve, but finds himself drawn against his best intentions into an affair - with his wife's sister. Both women have a mysterious and tragic past that raises the stakes in this fast-paced novel. Genevieve hits all the crowd-pleasing notes that we have come to expect from a Dickey novel, delivered in a style that is sexy, raw, humorous, and thrilling all at once. It should once again place him on the nation's bestseller lists.

From Publishers Weekly
Bestseller Dickey (Drive Me Crazy) offers more sex-drenched melodrama with an instantly engrossing story about a couple whose marriage is tested by secrets both familial and sexual. Beautiful, independent "financial guru" Genevieve Forbes (née LaKeisha Shauna Smith) and her husband, a medical research scientist (and the novel's unnamed narrator), are by-products of broken families. Genevieve ran away after suffering intolerable abuse by her murderous father and cruel grandmother, and the husband's rural Texas childhood was marred by his mother's death and a virtually absent, errant father. The death of Genevieve's grandmother Willie Esther forces both to return to her backwoods Alabama hometown for a reunion that stirs up old grudges, reopens still-painful wounds and sparks reckless familial infighting. While the narrator finds himself mildly amused by Genevieve's aging, folksy relatives, he's immediately salivating over Genevieve's hootchy-cootchy sister, Kenya. Their red-hot affair shifts into high gear just as Kenya's roughneck fiancé, Deuce, pays them a surprise visit and more secrets about Genevieve's childhood leak. Dickey creates a smidgen of suspense around the survival of the couple's marriage and the revelation of various secrets, but that's hardly his main goal. What the novel lacks in plot it makes up for in explicit sex and hot-tempered fireworks. Agent, Sara Camilli. (May)

Long time fan
I have been a fan of Eric Jerome Dickey since I read his novel Milk in My Coffee. He is an outstanding writer and I love all of his books and this one was no exception. Janie De Coster Man of My Dreams?

Amazing!
I LOVED this book. Eric JErome Dickey is one talented brother. This book took me to another world. It's is very interesting steamy and sexy. Definetly a great read!

Dicey Hot Pleasure
Call "Genevieve" a guilty pleasure - and a dicey, hot pleasure it is. Melodrama and elicit affairs abound and are told with lusty allure. An extremely good book that will keep you turning the pages as fast as you can. I also recommend "Afterburn" (Zane), "My Fractured Life" (Rikki Lee Travolta), and "The Best Kept Secret" (Kimberla Lawson Roby).
