When L.A. sex therapist Dr. Lecia Calhoun writes a self-help book called "The Big O", there's no doubt what she's talking about! But even though she's now a nationally known sex expert, "Dr. Love" has to admit to herself that it's been a long time...Star quarterback Anthony "T" Beals clearly knows what O stands for! After all, he got caught with a working girl - on film! When he appears on a late-night talk show with Lecia, who tells him he's got issues and his wife should dump him, T really lets loose on the air - then comes up with a hare-brained plan to solve his marital woes, involving Dr. Love's help. And suddenly Lecia's on a whirlwind cross-country adventure with the NFL hunk - who's determined to teach the good doctor how to move her game from the sidelines to the playing field. Which soon has the whole country wondering, what's really going on with T Beals and Dr. Love?

Adventurous and fun
5 Jan 2005
By BookRemarks
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Gimme An O is a spunky page-turning novel that involves Lecia Calhoun, a sex therapist whose career is taking off --- women are consulting with her in large numbers about their problems in the bedroom. And a chance television interview encounter with Anthony Beals, a popular NFL quarterback, turns around Lecia's life where she learns a few lessons of her own. The book is an easy read with a few zany characters that will keep you laughing. Although the dialogue isn't always authentic, Gimme An O should easily be embraced by many readers of fun, lively, African-American fiction.

Not Believable
10 July 2006
By blakgirl
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
As someone who is familiar with the sports industry, this book was not at all believable. The idea that a doctor would offer advice to a stranger on the street and that an agent and lawyer would allow their client to marry without a prenup is unrealistic. The premeditated, conniving wife and poor faithful athlete was way over the top.

Romantic Suspense at its Best
28 Jan 2006
By Joan B. Stanford
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Bestselling romance author Kayla Perrin is at it again. With her latest book, Gimme an O, she weaves a sizzling tale of suspense with her signature dose of romance. Although this reviewer is not a huge fan of romance novels, Gimme an O kept me turning the pages trying to anticipate what would happen next.
Lecia Calhoun is a sex therapist who has written The Big O, a provocative self-help book, especially Chapter 13, which has readers buzzing. Anthony Beals is the handsome star quarterback of the Oakland Raiders, but he is in the midst of scandal, with pictures of him and a prostitute plastered in the tabloids. As a result of the scandal, Ginger, Anthony's wife of only a few months, wants a divorce and the $5 million she's entitled to per the prenuptial agreement.
Lecia, while publicizing her book, makes many radio and TV appearances, including the Jay Leno show where she gets into a heated argument with none other than Anthony, who is also a guest of the show. Anthony accuses Lecia of encouraging his wife to seek divorce. Although Lecia did talk with Ginger briefly, the doctor fervently denies any wrongdoing.
When Ginger turns up missing and all fingers point to Anthony, he seeks Lecia's help. Determined to find Ginger and make things right with his wife, the hunt is on. While searching for his wife, Anthony and Lecia make important discoveries about Ginger and themselves-discoveries that can have a serious impact of life and love.
Gimme an O is truly romantic suspense at its best. Although at times I questioned how realistic Lecia's actions were, I enjoyed the read. With great characterization, the author makes you feel the sexual tension between Anthony and Lecia and the exhilaration of their wild goose chase. Readers will be pleasantly surprised to see that at the end, the author included the infamous Chapter 13 from "The Big O"...very interesting stuff. Kudos to Ms. Perrin for writing a fast-paced, entertaining novel. Like a skillful lover, she'll leave you begging for more.
