Vengeance
Omar Thompson, aka Omar Faxton, returns from Illegal Affairs and Bad Girls Finish First by Sheila Dansby Harvey in AWW SOOKIE SOOKIE: Omar’s Revenge. And as the title suggest, this is Omar’s ultimate revenge.
Attorney Raven Holloway is in the midst of a divorce from Texas Governor Michael Joseph and is simultaneously trying to jump start her own practice. Antonia Tyler, wife of movie mogul Ty Tyler, is in need of an attorney after allegedly attacking her husband’s lover in their home. Raven and Antonia happen upon each other and Antonia hires Raven, much to Ty’s dismay. Because of control issues and lack of trust, Ty hires another attorney to assist and unbeknownst to both Antonia and Raven, the attorney is Omar.
Raven and Omar go way back to their law school days where they both wrecked havoc on unsuspecting classmates. Raven feels she won that round, while Omar is seeking revenge. His revenge begins and ends with the Antonia Tyler case, but Antonia has a dirty little secret from her childhood days which plays itself out in adulthood. Omar’s wife Sabrina, an international fashion merchandiser, falls into the fray unbeknownst. And several characters from the previous books pay a visit all in an attempt to one-up Raven.
Shelia Dansby Harvey’s continuation of the Raven saga is a very good one, with characters you root for and characters you love to despise. A special treat was the relationship highlighted between Sabrina and her father which provided an understanding for the person she had become. Added to the midst are other secondary characters which showcased Raven’s vulnerabilities.
AWW SOOKIE SOOKIE: Omar’s Revenge is as action-packed as the first two books and a very consuming and interesting read.
