It was a bit raw for me taste, but I will say that it is very entertaining. The characters leap off of the pages at you most of the visuals are raw much like the descriptions given.Product details

Every Man for Herself edition by Maryann Reid Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Nina Bettus-Raines of Allswell, Texas, is considered a backward country girl. Nina's young life is overflowing with years of abuse and betrayal from her family. Now 25 years old, she's unhappily married and unable to catch her breath. It seems as if no one is ever interested in Nina's side of the story. In the five years that they've been married, her borrowing, fake-preaching husband Trent is always working some sort of scam...and she's fed up with it. As Nina prays for a solution, her best friend Dee encourages her to finally take a chance on her life. After all, it couldn't get much worse...could it?
Now a resident of New York City, Nina becomes gainfully employed, has her own apartment and was making plans to rid herself of her past. That awkward, backward, country girl she used to be was now oozing with self-confidence.
While taking in the new sights, Nina meets two different men who both spark different yet powerful emotions inside of her. As Nina gets comfy with both, she soon learns that Allswell, Texas, may not be such a small town after all. Will Nina escape the evil past that threatens to smother her?
Every Man For Herself is a great title, but it was packaged a little too neatly in the end for my personal liking. I would've preferred more drama and fewer insinuations. I did like the growth of the main character and based on that fact alone, I'd consider checking out other titles by Maryann Reid in the future.
Marrying young to move out of the home she shares with her mother and the mother's boyfriend, Nina is ready for a change. Can a country girl from a small town in Texas make it in the big city of New York with all the baggage she carries? In EVERY MAN FOR HERSELF, Maryann Reid attempts to take readers on Nina's journey of self-acceptance, growth, maturity and love.
When Nina discovers her husband has been lying to her about their financial situation, she decides she wants out of their loveless marriage. Being in her small Texas town is not large enough to eradicate the demons she has, which includes her own mother. So with the help of her best friend, Nina heads to New York on a wing and a prayer.
Living in New York is a welcomed change for Nina and she discovers the ambiance of the city, finds a job she truly loves, a nice home and the affections of two gentlemen. However, one of these men has secrets which could be detrimental to Nina. Can she choose the right man and continue on her goal of self-discovery?
Although EVERY MAN FOR HERSELF is a fairly quick read, the story evoked unrealistic situations and, at times, flat characterizations. The characters were not fully developed in order for me to align with the plight of the main character or even the supporting ones. Nina's life was flawed and it seemed as though Reid brushed aside those issues that should have been dealt with in depth. I wanted to feel Nina's pain and embrace her insecurities, but the development wasn't there for me to do so. The believability factor was sorely lacking because of the many dramatic situations that seemed to befall Nina throughout the story, which were not truly resolved or they were explained away too simply. The ending was rushed and Reid tried to close up loose ends too neatly. I do commend Reid for painting a realistic picture of the New York scene, setting up the romance for the main characters and creating truly erotic love scenes.

I purchased this book because I needed something to read for my recent flight, I stopped at Barnes and Noble and it was on the Bargain books on the front table. I read the back, it sounded like a good book and purchased it. I also want to disclose that I have never read a book by this author before.
Within the first two chapters of this book I was bored and at one point almost decided to put it down permanently. But being the avid reader that I am I wanted to give a few more chapters before I threw in the towel. I wanted to see what was going to happen with the main character, Nina.
I felt this story was all over the place...you begin thinking the writer is going to explore Trent (Nina's husband)-the fake pastor. But you only hear about his hustler ways in the first few chapters. Then you are introduced to Nina's mother and learn that her mother is still married to the man who repeatedly raped her daughter---you learn about the hatred mother and daughter have for each other. Nina decides to escape it all by escaping to New York. Out of all of the people in New York she hooks up with a man (Ahmasi) who has ties to her soon to be ex-husband.
Then she begins to date a man that she met at work (even though it was against company policy). You later learn that this perfect man (Lamont) actually knew her when she was young and claims to have been in love with her then (but that is never addressed or revealed to the main character in the book). You also learn that his mother was her father's mistress who might have killed him and another slew of drama comes with that. I mean I don't know where to start or end---- this book was everywhere and some things didn't add up or make sense to me.
It was a bit raw for me taste, but I will say that it is very entertaining. The characters leap off of the pages at you most of the visuals are raw much like the descriptions given.
