Book Description

Though both gorgeous, the two Rodgers sisters couldn't be more different. Hennesey, a brilliant straight-A student, is soon off to college on a full scholarship. She's in a strong relationship with Rafe, a recently released convict who's trying to turn his life around after being unjustly jailed. He took a drug rap for his old friend Smoke, who has since become the most ruthless drug dealer in Chicago. Rafe wants nothing more to do with his old friends -- especially when he falls for Hennesey.

On the other hand, Alizé is perfectly comfortable relying on her undeniable sex appeal to get what she wants. When Livvy, the girls' mother, announces that they have to move out of her apartment because she is getting a smaller place to save up money and go back to school, Alizé panics as she is in desperate need of some money of her own. She and her girlfriends come up with an outrageous plan to score some fast cash -- persuading the men with fat pockets they meet at clubs to take the girls to a hotel and then drugging them and making off with their wallets and jewelry. Unfortunately for Alizé, one of their first victims is none other than Smoke, Rafe's old buddy. Once robbed, he's bent on revenge -- and the violent chain of events that follow will change the Rodgers family forever.

Game Over.......2007-01-13

This one dragged out at times but was overall a very decent book. The way the characters connected made for a coincidental story line but interesting nonetheless.

I really wanted Livvy to find out about the "encounter" between Alize and Carlos. That should have ignited the fight between Livvy and Carlos---not the sudden discovery of some meaningless woman. That was pretty lame. Women go to nursing school all the time with the assistance of government loans or grants. Livvy's intense need for the hospital scholarship as her only hope baffled me. Sharika disappeared from the book once Livvy sprouted a mind of her own with regards to Wade.

The money Alize and her friends made for their "hits" was barely enough for first and last months rent; much less furniture, utilities, food, etc. What was Alize thinking? That line of "work" was far more degrading than a job at a fast food restaurant or department store. Lisa, not wanting anything to do with the scheme in the beginning, turned out to be the most foolish of all the girls.

It was constantly stated that Hennessey was "smart", but her intelligence definitely wasn't reflected in the way she begged Rafe to be with her. It wasn't anything romantic about that. It was purely sick.

The book intensified towards the end and the tragic events threw me. I was then picked up by a story-book ending. All's well that ends well and the "smoke" was out.

ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS WRITTEN BY A MALE AUTHOR OTHER THAN ERIC JEROME DICKEY.......2006-08-20

This book was amazing..It was definitely a page turner and the characters-(Livvy, her 2 daughters Alize and Hennesey, Wade, Raphiel, and Smoke...)-come to life as you read.(I don't want to go into detail because I'll end up giving the story away)....I read books like Carrie buys shoes on Sex and the City.....but this book had me reading until the last page....Although the ending was suprising it didn't disappoint me, but I will be disappointed if RM Johnson doesn't do a Sequel to Dating Games....For anyone out there whose questioning whether or not to buy this book if it was the last dollar I had until my next pay day I would buy the book...LOL maybe not my last dollar but certainly close to it....ONCE AGAIN EXCELLENT BOOK KEEP DOING YA THING MR. JOHNSON AND I'LL BE WAITING FOR THE SEQUEL!!!!

IF THAT WAS ME..........2006-04-21

I WOULD HAVE KICKED MY TWIN SISTERS ASS EVERY WHICH WAY FOR THE GRIMEY SH@T SHE IS CAPABLE OF. GOOD BOOK

Great Hood Story.......2006-02-21

I enjoyed this book. I purchased it some time ago with Love Frustration and I'M just know reading it. It was a good page turner. It starts a little slow but has enough action to keep you interested and midway though the book IT'S ON. Henny and Ally were total opposites even tough they are twins. I wanted Livvy to find out about Carlos sleeping with Ally. And their mother(Livvy) was dealing with her own issues with men.
I'm use to reading black novels where everyone is educated and on top of their game in the workforce but this book gives a different setting on where the characters are working average jobs but trying to do better the right or wrong way.
I hate what happen to Lisa but you would have thought she had more sense than to be riding in a stolen BENTLEY. I think R.M Johnson is a wonderful author. Other good books by him are The Million Dollar Divorce and Love Frustrations.

Dating Games delivers a solid, engaging story...........2006-01-02

Dating Games is the story of single mom Livvy Rogers, her twin daughters Hennessey and Alize and the men in their lives. It is ultimately a tight little story of the games (lies) the men/women play during the course of their relationships. Livvy is torn between two men - Carlos and Wade; Hennessey is the bookworm/educated daughter falling for ex-con Rafe; and Alize uses her body to get what she wants from men.
A tragedgy causes these characters to confront each other with their lies and forces them to come clean. It is only then that they really see each other and themselves for what they are.
An engaging story from beginning to end. At times I was drawn to Livvy, Hennessey and Rafe's story. But in the end I was drawn to each character - for each character had his or her own flaw.
RM Johnson has delivered yet another thought provoking tale - full of drama and intriguing characters. You'll love it from beginning to end - I know I did.

get this one if you can.......2000-02-26

this book is the last of the mckenna series and the first one i read. and i spent almost two years to complete the set on the strength of this book. ms. michaels writes such heartwarming stories, and this one is no exception. this one is about the youngest mckenna brother, colin, and rachel, a heroine a lot like the other mckenna heroines. it's just a pity there isn't more about colin's older brothers here, just the sisters-in-law.
