This book is excellent. She knows how to capture the character as if you are right there with them. If this were a movie who knows how many times I would have seen it by now. I usually dont like to read books that has nore than one character because you usually get confused because they dont know how to seperate them but KAYLA didnt confuse me at all. She seperated them all well. Not one time did I get confused. I read Getting Sme first and at the end of that book I found this one and ordered it off Amazon, local bookstores didnt carry the book. When I started reading this book everything started making sense in Getting Some because they would speak about how they were treated as well as mention names. The way all their men did them was down right wrong. I truly despised men while reading this book. But the way the girls set them up, each and everyone of them deserved it. They couldnt have done it better. I will be reading more of Miss. Perrin's books and I will keep you posted....

This fun, exciting read is based in the city of Atlanta, where three attractive girlfriends since college all find themselves in their own unique love trials. Claudia is an Atlanta socialite, weeks away from marrying her boyfriend of four years, Adam. He is a successful lawyer, who decided to leave his practice to open a non-profit that serves children that are ill. Lisette is a popular local news anchorman whom after a bitter divorce, finds love with her old college flame, Glen, a pilot for a major airline who occasionally finds himself in Atlanta which is the hub for his airline. Lastly, Annalise is a passionate photographer and is married to Charles, an attorney. Immediately, the reader is made privy to Annalise's frustration with her and Charles' sex life or lack thereof.

As it seems simultaneously - Claudia's wedding is called off, Glen ends up being a fraud, and Annalise catches her husband in an affair - the girls are all able to provide for each other an available ear and a shoulder to cry on. In the same instance, plotting a revenge that is sure to offer them payback for all of the stress, pain, money, and grief caused by their significant others.

This reader enjoyed being a part of the lives of these young women and empathized with each of them; thus, reveling in the ensued consequences by each of the men in their lives for attempting, but not succeeding, in ruining theirs. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys an entertaining read that speaks to heartache, overcoming it, and getting good, old-fashioned revenge.

I really, really, really enjoyed this book. It was such a good read that I hated to put it down. I adored all of the women and was so happy for them. Those men got what they deserved!!!! Keep up the good work.

Pierre Ambroise Francois Choderios de LaClos is credited with writing REVENGE IS A DISH BEST SERVED COLD in 1782. That phrase is definitely applicable today. Read Kayla Perrin's May 2006 release, GETTING EVEN. Three unlikely best friends prove their ability to fight back when scorned by the men in their lives.

Claudia, Annelise and Lishelle met in college and have been best friends since. Their personal worlds are about to come apart. There's nothing anyone can do about it, but should they take it and get on with their lives. Just read and see.

Claudia, the undisputed Black American Princess, has been planning the ultimate wedding that will set Atlanta on its ear. The day of the wedding draws near and Adam, her intended, begins to ask her to participate in strange sexual behavior. Is this the darker side of Adam or is there something truly wrong and he's trying to scare her off?

Annelise is the married friend. She and her husband haven't been intimate in a very long time. She's tried everything she knows to entice him and he turns on her, telling her that she puts too much pressure on him. She's an amateur photographer. At a scheduled shoot, a client brings along his brother who begins to show a lot of interest in her. Why?

Lishelle is the unmarried one of the group. Suddenly, the man she loved in college shows up, courts her heavily and asks her to marry him. The whirlwind events leave her little time to really think things through. She agrees to help him with a bank loan so that he can get his new business up and running.

Kayla Perrin has written a story that will keep you alternately laughing, crying and wanting to punch something. What is it the three men have in common? When the women are dumped, they muddle through, even have a pity party. Then it gets serious and they begin to plot their revenge. The ending will make you want to shout and high five all three of these ladies.

The mini-stories in this book are gut wrenching at times. GETTING EVEN is a must read. Kayla Perrin has made her way to my TBB list. She's an awesome storyteller whose characters are real. It isn't often that one can find a book with simultaneous stories going on and still be able to keep up and not have to go back to re-read.

This book was absolutely amazing. Kayla Perrin pens a tale that is believable and that we all at some point can relate to. These men got exactly what they deserved and nothing less.
