Somebody's gotta be on the top and on the bottom!

If you read the entire series from beginning (Soul mates dissipate; Never again one more;He's just a friend) and now "Somebody's gotta be on top" then you know the story about Darius, Jada, Wellington and the host of others caught up in the triangle. He's just a frined and Somebody's gotta be on top" take place at the same time. Somebody's gotta be on top is narrated by Darius and He's just a friend is narrated by new comer Fancy. It will be fun to see how these to character's pan out over the next three books to end the series. I think that the best books in the series are "Soul mates dissipate and this one because they are both page turners and there's always sonmething happening. It makes you think before you turn to the next page and ask youself what will happen next. Darius is a straight up womanizer and control freak in this book. He's never really truly loved and cared for a woman and I hope that Fancy Taylor will change that. The ending keeps you on edge because you want to know what'll happen in the next installment. Was she talking about Daryl Jr. or Sr. The wait for the next book in the series "Nothing has every felt like this" will be long but I think it will be worth the wait. The ending was definitely a mystery for several reasons. In addition to what was stated above I'm also curious to know exactly how many children Darius has fathered.

Her Best One Yet!

I feel so honored in meeting Mary B. at the 26th Annual Black Cultural Festival in Pomona, where I told her Somebody's Gotta Be on Top was one of her best books! (I won't go into the story; enough people have done that.) Somebody's Gotta Be on Top is filled with erotic scenes that are sexy ~ not sleezy, and is written with a style of ease that is sure to keep you turning pages. It's amazing how authors can put so much into a character, that readers are forced to either love 'em or hate 'em. As much as I hate to admit it, I loved "Darius"!! I take my hat off to you, Ms. Morrison! You're definitely ON TOP with this one. Paula S. Edwards, Author of The Last Bad Decision

Waaaaaaay Better Than Zane!!!!

Somebody's Got To Be On Top was way better than Zane's recent novels. This book has a good story line with erotic flavor spiced in. Not just the grit and the grime of sex but sensual and erotic at the same time. The main character Darius Jones was a trip. You talking about a straight dog and conceited.....whew!!!! He wanted to and did sleep with everything moving, including his sister now that was straight up doggish. He was so busy sleeping with all the females he came across that his brother was able to embezzle money from his business. I can't wait to read another installment of this family saga. I was kind of disappointed that there wasn't more of Fancy Taylor in this story but as I got to the end I realized that this story was telling how Fancy and Darius met each other and the next story will be about them, again I can't wait. Fancy and Darius' attitudes coming together is what I consider a must read!!!! Ms. Morrison definitely did you thang on this one. After reading this novel she has gained truckloads of more respect from me as a writer. Later!!!!!

Fantabulous!!!!! Fantastic and fabulous!!

I had been waiting for the next in the series from Morrison since He's just a friend. Darius just can't seem to keep his desires under control and they jump up and hit him hard. This is the second time around. Morrison is fantastic as a writer and gets her point across very well. I can't wait for the next in the series.
