Falling in Like with Dick

Posted on April 30, 2016

Dick Cover A bit of tongue in cheek with a play on words in a new release From the best selling author of the Twisted Series, comes a sexy new standalone novel, RC Stephens. It came with a warning lable. Dick is a 90,000 word full length standalone novel. No cliffhanger. Due to strong language and sexual content this book is not intended for readers under the age of 18.

I read the blurb….

My name is Dixon Crawford—my friends call me Dick.
I’m rich, divorced and I have two small kids.
When it comes to women, I like to play the field. I don’t want to ever be tied down again.
I met Eden at a Presidential gala and, yes, I was intrigued. When school started in September I was shocked to learn Eden was my son’s kindergarten teacher…
I’d slept around with the lonely rich mothers at the school and had earned a reputation.
A reputation Eden knew about…
Eden was on the untouchable list—the band on her finger screamed, “I’m taken.” But when she got into trouble with her husband she asked me for help and I obliged.
I soon discovered that innocent Eden had secrets of her own. I also discovered she was beyond tempting. Giving her a little friendly help turns into something bigger than I ever imagined….
My name is Dick. I’m told I’m an asshole, but you will need to read my story and decide for yourself!

So I did…

Interesting read. The story is told from different points of view from the characters interweaving their back stories. I started reading with an eye roll at the A-typical alpha male with a walking Dicks Teaser 3 boner. There are no real shockers when you are introduced to Dixon, the main character who is lonely, insecure and allergic to commitment. Eden, the female lead is also lonely, broken and loveless. One thing that many readers will find troubling, if you have a moral center, is that Dixon likes sleeping with married women. Yes, Eden is in an unhappy marriage that she is lying to herself and saying she is staying because of their son.
