"You have chlamydia."
Three words no man wants to hear.
I've always been liberal with my appreciation of the female form, a firm believer in the 'try before you buy' principle, but living life to the fullest obviously didn't end well for me considering the unexpected—and very unwelcome—consequence of my free and easy past.
After living through the horrendous experience that was informing my recent sexual partners of my acquired 'condition,’ I made a vow to myself – and a bet with my best friend—that the next woman I sleep with will be the ‘one.’
What I will learn is that even when something happens and the games come to an end, there's always the chance of something—or someone—crashing in and changing everything.
So this is my story. It may start with a venereal disease, but I promise you, I’m determined to get my happy ending.
He leans back and crosses his perfectly toned arms over his chest.
“Impart your wisdom, oh wise bartender.” He takes another drink of his beer and—yet again—watching me like a hawk. I wish he’d stop watching me.
My confidence wavers under his intense stare but when I catch a knowing glint in his eye, it riles me up. There’s nothing worse than a guy who hides his unease behind a cocky façade, especially when I know there’s something genuine hiding there.
It’s one of the worst qualities a guy can have. It’s disingenuous and fake and if there’s two things I hate—in anyone—it’s that.
I square my shoulders and stand up straight, deciding to let him have it, putting my hands out in front of me to count on my fingers.
“One, you cheated on her.” He shakes his head, an amused smile playing on his lips.
“Nope. Next.”
“Two, connected to the first, you hooked up with her sister, best friend or mother . . .” He snorts at that one, chuckling under his breath as he shakes his head again.
“Right, then, the last three,” I continue. “Three through five are offending her family/job/friends or outfit, asking her to pay for your date and lastly, giving her an STD.”
His eyes grow wide and he sits bolt upright.
Bingo.

OMG! If there's one thing i can depend on BJ Harvey for, it's for the 'when you least expect it' gawfaw moments. Game Ender was that book. I don't think i've laughed as much with this book as i have in any other book i've read of her in the past. Alright, so the first few words of the blurb are enough to make you go 'what the hell?!?', but let's face it, sometimes we all need that punch in the gut to make you stand up and pay attention. and pay attention i really did. I may not have read the entire series from the beginning, but i did read a few of them, enjoying each and every one of them, and yet, there was something about Thomas' story that had me hooked from the very start, reading faster and faster as i kept going on the story.
It was funny, emotional and everything i could have asked from a romantic comedy, so i can't complain about that. Many parts had me cheering for the characters to make it, to surpass their difficulties and especially to find their special someone, no matter what obstacles they must face - and let's face it, there's one huge obstacle that they need to face right from the bat. The chemistry is undeniable and i simply couldn't get enough of it and can only hope that there's more from BJ Harvey that i get to experience because there's simply something about the way that she writes that pulls you right in, making you want and need to keep reading, no matter what.

"You have chlamydia."
Three words no man wants to hear.
I've always been liberal with my appreciation of the female form, a firm believer in the 'try before you buy' principle, but living life to the fullest obviously didn't end well for me considering the unexpected—and very unwelcome—consequence of my free and easy past.
After living through the horrendous experience that was informing my recent sexual partners of my acquired 'condition,’ I made a vow to myself – and a bet with my best friend—that the next woman I sleep with will be the ‘one.’
What I will learn is that even when something happens and the games come to an end, there's always the chance of something—or someone—crashing in and changing everything.

"Mommy?" Rose asks, standing next to Kate and tugging on her top.
Kate takes a sip of wine before looking down at her daughter with a smile on her face. "Yeah, princess?"
"What's an ortasm?"
Wine shoots out of Kate’s mouth, as she chokes. The rest of us either gasp, snort, or in Mac's case, cackle with laughter.
Noah and Zoe's Nate, never one to miss out on being the center of attention, decides to wade in with his five-year old wisdom. "I have a penith," he says, before pulling down his pants to prove the fact.
"Oh God, I can't breathe," Abi wheezes, bent over in her chair and laughing like a loon.
"Daddy says that he'll cut off any boy's penis that touches me," Megan, Sean and Sam's gorgeous nine-year old daughter, informs the group.
"He'd be right, pumpkin," Sam replies, pursing her lips and not looking at all surprised by her daughter's announcement.
"I'm so glad Riley can't hear us. You don't want to know the things she comes out with," Mac adds just as Riley appears beside her. "Shit," she mutters.
“Daddy told me I'm not allowed to talk about penises. But if you can then I can too."
"Riley, this is adult conversation."
"But you said adults have toys, like when I found a huge plastic penis in that red box at the back of your closet and you told me it was a paperweight."
Mac’s face goes red, and her lips twitch. "Ah . . . yeah.”
“You told me it was a paperweight.”
“That’s because it was, honey."
"That's good, because I put it on Daddy's desk in his office this morning. You shouldn't hide things like that."
The rest of the group struggles to stifle their laughter but somehow Mac powers through it. "I told you about going into my closet, missy."
Riley shrugs, her hand darting out to grab a handful of potato crisps from the bowl in the middle of the table. "I was looking for the chicken."
We all go silent, waiting for the penny to drop.
Mac's head jerks back. "What?"
"Oh no. I’m not sure I want to know where this is going . . ." Abi says quietly beside us
"I heard you say you wanted Daddy's cock." Riley turns to her mother and narrows her eyes, her hands moving to her hips as she takes a hilarious—and very indignant—pose. "And I couldn’t find a chicken in your room so I looked in the closet. You shouldn't hide Daddy's cock. It’s mean for Daddy to keep a chicken inside."
"Ah . . ." Mac wide eyes move to Kate.
"Riley," Kate says, her voice full of humor. "I think you should go ask your Daddy about his chicken. Make sure you do it so that all of the uncles can hear too. I bet they’ll love to hear about the chicken."
"I think I will," she states with a firm nod before turning on her heels and leaving the room in search of her father.
Mac can do nothing but shake her head. "I swear to God that child is not mine.”
