Sandra Yuen's Reviews > Sidney Sheldon's Mistress of the Game

** spoiler alert ** This book had a great deal of tension and suspense. However, I could have done without the incest, the sex between adults and underage teenagers or children, and the son who's in love with his mother so much that he has sex with his cousin and kills his father. It's like the author wanted to cover all types of perversion in order to tantalize the reader. Threesomes, sex toys, role-play, sadomasochism, rape, sex with 11 year old twins, mental derangement are all fair game. Everyone has an angle, everyone has sex on their mind.

The ending is open. Lexi still believes she will find a way despite the world crumbling around her, financial ruin and being arrested. But really, there's no way out for her at the end in my opinion. No possibility she would be able to get away with her crimes.

What's good about the book? The writing is fine. I like knowing the thoughts of the characters. I liked the high stakes of the corporate world. Lexi is a strong protagonist, the deaf girl that regains her hearing and conquers the world so to speak. It's just the other content that bothers me.
