shoulders. “Wish I knew. Seems the more controversy on the show, the higher the ratings.”
    â€œDoes the creator of the show even know your true personality? You’re the nicest person anyone could ever meet.”
    â€œYeah, he knows, but for Ed, it’s all about ratings.”
    â€œThen have a meeting and ask him to change your role so that the viewers can see who you really are.”
    â€œLast season, a director made some show suggestions and he was fired.”
    â€œI thought reality television was all about depicting people in their true form.”
    â€œReese, the reality is that reality television is a money-making machine. The creators of these shows will go to any length to ensure ratings, even if they have to fudge the truth and stage scenes.”
    â€œWhat an oxymoron.”
    â€œThat’s an understatement. After losing nearly everything in the divorce, my focus is on building a solid financial future so that I won’t have to rely on a man ever again.”
    â€œYou may not need a man for money, but what about for sex?”
    â€œGirl, sex is the furthest thing from my mind.”
    â€œWhen was the last time you had any?”
    â€œAny what?”
    â€œStop playing. You know what I mean.”
    â€œI haven’t had sex in months.”
    â€œI couldn’t go a week without Joey.”
    â€œWell, consider yourself one of the lucky ones. You and Joey have a happy, healthy relationship.” Reese and her husband, Joey, had met in the Diamond District.
    â€œYes, we do, but it didn’t happen overnight. In the beginning Joey traveled to South Africa a lot on business, and the distance was hard on our relationship. It’s taken years for us to get to a good place. One day you’ll find your Mr. Right. What about Moses Michaels? You two went out a few times. Maybe he’s the one. He sure is one good-looking man.”
    â€œNo, he’s not the one for me. I can’t handle the ladies’-man type. The problem is he’s too good-looking. Women throw themselves at him all the time, and he loves the attention. He told me in no uncertain terms that he was only interested in sex—not a relationship.”
    â€œHe said that?” Reese asked, astounded.
    â€œYep, he sure did.”
    â€œWell...maybe you should have at least tried him on for size. He looks like he’d be a good lover.”
    Ayana lightly pushed Reese on the shoulder. “Ohhh, I can’t believe you’re saying that!”
    â€œWhy?” She smiled sheepishly.
    â€œBecause you are happily married to Joey, that’s why.”
    â€œI’m married, not dead, and you would have to be dead not to notice Moses Michaels.”
    â€œGuess you have a point, and I was soooo tempted to take him up on his offer. I just didn’t want to become another one of his many conquests.”
    â€œI understand that, but did you at least kiss the man?”
    â€œYes, we kissed.”
    â€œSo was he a good kisser?”
    â€œAren’t you the nosy one?”
    â€œWell...curious minds want to know.”
    â€œYes, he’s a great kisser. Are you satisfied? Now can we change the subject, please?”
    â€œOkay, okay. Forget about the players of the world. Plenty of men out there want a committed relationship. What about that guy from Switzerland who was on the show?”
    â€œYou mean Erick?”
    â€œYes, that’s him. From the episodes I watched, you two appeared to have mad chemistry.”
    â€œWe did. The producers sent us on several romantic dates and we were getting along really well until he had to go back to Switzerland and take care of some issues regarding his work papers to stay in the U.S.”
    â€œThat’s too bad. Don’t worry. You’ll find Mr. Right,” Reese reiterated.
    â€œI’m not worried, and I’m not waiting either.” Ayana looked out the window for a moment, digesting her
