About The Book

In the suburbs of Chicago, Jayceon and Leah were all set to start their new lives together as husband and wife. In Jace, Leah thought she married the perfect man until she accidentally stumbles across his deleted secret that quickly turns her sanity, and their marriage, upside down.

The night before Jayceon marries Leah, he hits the record button on his iPhone when the curvaceous dancer—Jessica Fox—from his bachelor party makes her way back to his hotel suite. Soon after, the nasty recorded mistake comes back to haunt Jace, and the stripper, in the worst way possible.

The life Leah planned with Jace rapidly spins out of control when she becomes obsessed with the X-rated video, and the girl in it. Leah will do whatever it takes to right her new husbands wrong, even if it means getting rid of Jessica Fox for good . . .

My Thoughts

Jayceon aka Jace’s slip up comes back to bite him in this urban fiction novel. Sometimes having strippers at a bachelor or bachelorette party may not be the right entertainment. The characters figure this out a little to late.

This was a typical novel about man doing things without thinking and the wrong person finding out about it, his wife. I will say Leah’s reaction was unexpected and she may have taken it to far. I can relate to her, but the reaction was a little extreme. It was hard to believe Jace didn’t think about photos and videos on his phone being in the cloud. It was also hard to believe he didn’t know that his wife had some serious issues. Jayceon would step up at time but I wondered if he was scared of his wife. I will say that Leah was a determined character and willing to take care of anything that got in her way.

It was a fast paced book and true to Haskin’s writing style. Some of the descriptions leaned toward erotic romance and took away from the story in some areas. Overall, the storyline was interesting and Leah’s character kept me reading. If you like books with drama and nice twists, She’s Obsessed is for you.
