Tai has just celebrated her 30th birthday with Brian, her boyfriend of five years. Then she finds a picture of a nude woman named Priscilla (who goes by Prissy), and realizes he has been cheating on her. She decides to confront Prissy and she learns that Prissy and her boyfriend are poly, and Brian lied about him and Tai being an open relationship. Tai, Prissy and her boyfriend Quintin end up having fun threesome sex. I enjoyed reading this story and I appreciate that it has a good example of how poly relationships work. Also Brian is the worst boyfriend. This is my first time reading something by Chencia C. Higgins and it certainly won't be the last.
