Got to Be Real

Four Original Love Stories

By: Eric Jerome Dickey

Narrated by: Peter Jay Fernandez

New York Times best-selling authors E. Lynn Harris and Eric Jerome Dickey, and Blackboard best-selling authors Colin Channer and Marcus Major have joined forces in Got to Be Real, a compilation of fresh, funny, and honest love stories. Each one is a unique look at love in the modern, urban age. Harris’ leading man faces one of his greatest fears with a Valentine’s gift that could change his life forever. Dickey takes readers on a trip south of the border that leads to a steamy relationship where race and a language barrier creates no deterrent. Jamaica is the hot spot where Channer weaves his titillating tale of people in the music industry. A certified womanizer meets his match in Major’s provocative story set in Philadelphia.

These four popular African-American writers have put together a treasury of stories that is as sexy and entertaining as it is candid and thought-provoking.

poor narration on story 2

The narrator on Amir & Kenya does a poor job. It's painful to listen to him. He slurs some of his words, at times he reads too slowly, like he's trying too hard to pronounce each word. At times, it becomes painful to listen to.

What in the unfinished!!

Why did these stories end like this?!! Chile idk this was kinda a struggle to finish. It’s like you get to the good part and then it ends!! Rest in paradise to the writers who are no longer here. I also just remembered these stories were written in the early 90s

Not what I expected from established authors

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Disappointment.

Any additional comments?

With 1 book, I thought I would get 4 great stories by 4 different authors, but only 1 of the books was good and 1 was fair. The other two just weren't what I expected from authors that I have read before.

Boring

The storys was all over the place and when you finally get into it its over.

terrible

my book skipped and jumped all over the place. narrator's were dry and unenthusiastic. bad
