The Pleasure of Pain

De: Shameek Speight

Narrado por: Mr. Gates

In this twisted tale you will be introduced to Tess, Iris, Vanessa, Ebony and Bless who find out that The Pleasure of Pain is a true testament that we always want what we shouldn't have.

Tess is a strong determined business woman by the day and queen of the streets by night. She will stop at nothing to get the life she wants for herself and her three best friends along with her man, even if it means breaking old bonds and creating lifetime enemies. What she doesn't realize is in the game of cut- throat there are no rules.

Bless emerges on the scene after being recently released from prison only to find that things are not the way they were before he got locked up. The worst part is the person he has to fight is the person he least expected would betray him. He is out for blood and hell bent on destroying anyone who gets in his way.

Iris is secretly in love with Tess, but plays the friend card in order to get closer to her. She knows that Tess is in love with another man, however that doesn't stop her from plotting to get Tess' heart.

Vanessa and Ebony are sisters who share the same father and they happen to be Tess' top lieutenants. Their loyalty and love run deep for Tess and has never been questioned until now...

With pleasure there is always a little pain as Tess and her girlfriends will soon find out. Will they break under pressure or will they show why women rule the world?

Storyline fantastic

Would you listen to The Pleasure of Pain again? Why?

Amazing! So real and true to ghetto life...somewhere, Lol

Who was your favorite character and why?

Tess & Bless...they truly were in love with each other and had each other's back

Have you listened to any of Mr. Gates’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

no

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Mostly ohhhs & ahh snap! Lol

Any additional comments?

There's a lot of..too much grammar errors in his books. I wish that that could be corrected. It gets a little annoying while reading and the words are messed up or misused. Doesn't he/they use the SPELL CHECK icon before releasing? Other than that, his books are on point and the story line is the work of a genius!!!!

good story

I could have done without the excessive sex scenes but other than th a t, not a bad book!
