About this listen
Maita has good reasons for bad feelings in this multicultural and interracial love triangle drama about the power of love and the pitfalls of obsession.
Two lovers. Two continents. Two cultures. One unforgettable love story.
Maita, a Zimbabwean graduate student, has returned to London on summer break with one goal: to reunite with Ade, her Nigerian ex-boyfriend. She made a terrible mistake when she broke up with Ade—and now she wants him back. On the flight to London, she meets Chris, a British gentleman who is instantly captivated by Maita and pursues her relentlessly.
When Ade rejects Maita’s efforts to rekindle their romance, she turns to Chris. As a couple, Maita and Chris are forced to confront racism, the complexities of an interracial relationship, and their insecurities.
But Maita has never forgotten Ade…nor has he ever gotten over her. Then, in a sudden turn of events, a determined Ade resurfaces and attempts to reconnect with Maita. But Chris is doubly prepared to keep her at any cost, unleashing a dangerous chain of events that will forever alter the course of all three lives.
How far will each man go to win her love?
Turning Tables is an engaging romantic women’s fiction novel that explores the challenges and triumphs of multicultural and multiracial relationships—a poignant and extraordinary story of love, missed opportunities, and second chances.

Story
I was not a gambler. No way. I've built an existence free of risk and adventure. From my career to a small life with my closest family. I was not going to do anything to jeopardize my heart. But when my neighbor and number one menace to my safe plans showed up in Vegas, I did what every adventurous (not!) woman would do. I got drunk and married the man.

My Scottish billionaire boss is arrogant, secretive, demanding, and far too insanely hot for me, his meek assistant, to actually look in the eye. But somehow, I manage to put up with the boss from hell...until I get a terminal cancer diagnosis. Totally valid reason to quit, right? Not for my cruel devil of a boss. You will not believe his response to my resignation...or the secret he's been hiding all along!

Enter Colt Chastain, rising NBA star and magnetic single dad. He's set his sights on me and he's determined to change my mind. I told him he's the absolute last man I would ever be with.

Finding a good roommate through a classified ad isn’t as easy as it sounds. I was starting to lose hope. Until a knock at my door came, and God answered my prayers. Except...uh...wrong prayer, God. I’d definitely requested the big guy find me a drop-dead gorgeous man on more than one occasion...just not as my roommate. Declan Tate talked me into interviewing him anyway. While he was amusing and charismatic, I wouldn’t have been comfortable living with a man, so I regretfully declined. Then, cupcakes showed up at my door.

The beginning of my sophomore year in college was off to a rough start. On the first day of orientation, I had an altercation with an infuriating British dude in a campus bathroom. (The ladies’ room was out of order. So, I used the men’s room. Don’t judge.) I got home later that night and realized that the foreign student we were expecting to rent a room in my parents’ house was allergic to our cat. So, the spare room went to someone else: Caleb - the British guy from the men’s room. And so it began...my love-hate story with Caleb Yates. Or was it hate-love in that order?

This book is a wild, exciting, beautiful ride
This book!!!!!!!! I started it because of the gorgeous cover and clever title. But the story blew my mind. The characters were so real and complicated. I went back and forth about who should be with who. As the POV switched so would my opinions. The ending completely shocked me and my heart is still pounding. This book was so exciting to read. I absolutely loved it.

Tables definitely turned- not an average love story
I was looking for a love story but not a sappy, predictable boy-meets-girl novel where the ending is a fairytale wedding. This novel delivered a realistic love story of missed opportunities, second chances, and love that never fades. Interestingly it delivers with suspense, drama, crime, and romance. I enjoyed different speaker’s voicing Ade, Chris, and Maita - truly bringing each character to life!! Just wished the dialogue scenes included multiple voices instead of the one narrator voicing each speaker. Recommend this work to anyone seeking a love story but who does not want a mushy, steamy romance novel. Turning Tables is for the reader who likes a love story written with truths like right person at the wrong time, or being in love yet still wanting to fulfill individual goals before marriage. The Audible sample gives away a crucial scene but this novel still allows the reader ample plot development. I hope there is a sequel; we are left with just enough to anticipate a sequel.
