Ordered from bol.com for Rowena's Birthday. (May 1)

This lusty novel set in Miami focuses on six women whose lives are connected by one man--Latin pop singer Ricky Biscayne. Behind the handsome face, thrusting hips, and chart-topping hits is a man who abandoned his first love and child, a womanizer and a liar. It's going to take all the women in his life joining together to expose him for what he really is to change him. Valdes-Rodriguez relies on the sex and sass that made her debut, The Dirty Girls Social Club (2003), a runaway hit, and her strong suit is still creating realistic female relationships. Otherwise, many of her characters and plotlines seem ripped straight from the pages of tell-all tabloids--take the Latina diva with a famous derriere for example. Despite that, or perhaps because of it, readers will snap this book off the shelves and not be disappointed.

Finished reading on June 25th 2009.
Did not like this one that much.
