There’s always a fine line in friendships between women, a boundary that when crossed the pair is never the same again. That\u2019s the invisible line Bre Morgan and Jordan Powers find themselves straddling when they become lovers in GStarr\u2019s PULLING ME BACK<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The debut novel from UrbanL Publishing, run by authors V. Bella and GStarr, is a dramatic page-turner. Bre and Jordan never thought they\u2019d end up with each other, especially since Bre is in love with a man at the start of the novel. Spoiled and sheltered, Bre oversees her father\u2019s successful real estate firm and pretty much gets whatever she wants \u2013 except a commitment from her always-absent boyfriend, Sean. Dating for four years, they only see each other three times a month supposedly because of his job. Their fly-by-night relationship doesn\u2019t exactly fit into Bre\u2019s plans of being married with kids \u2013 she\u2019s 33 \u2013 and his infrequent visits make her wonder what Sean is up to when he\u2019s not with her.<\/p>\n

Jordan, on the other hand, is 35 and avoids commitment like a trip to the gynecologist. While she doesn\u2019t call herself a playa per se, her motto is \u201cto satisfy yourself\u2026first.\u201d She can pull just about any woman, but when the thrill is gone, Jordan simply moves on to the next. Mya is her latest conquest, but the long-distance nature of their relationship is tedious, especially when she has eye candy like Bre to hang out with: perfect petite figure, long luxurious hair, small apple bottom ass.<\/p>\n

The friends both believe they shouldn\u2019t cross that line, but it happens one night not so unexpectedly. The sexual tension building between Bre and Jordan came together so smoothly that it scares both women. Jordan feels herself falling in love, and Bre is just trying to deal with being intimate with a woman for the first time. Is she a lesbian? What does all this mean? She already has enough to worry about with her family falling apart at the seams.<\/p>\n

While it was inevitable that their friendship could translate into a romance, no one but GStarr could have predicted how volatile it would become. Secondary characters weave their way into Pulling Me Back<\/em> in the most interesting fashion, and drama ensues. That alone makes GStarr\u2019s first novel unforgettable.\u00a0 I was drawn into the \u201cwill-they or won\u2019t they\u201d commotion between Jordan and Bre, and the sex scenes are sizzling.<\/p>\n

Pulling Me Back<\/em> will reel you\u00a0in \u2013 and keep you\u00a0hooked for pages on end.<\/p>\n
