She's Got The Jack By Susan Eglington Summary
When it comes to scenes of scintillating sexual proclivity, author Susan Eglington has got the knack. And with her newest release, She's Got the Jack, the fourth installment in her erotically charged romance series, The Kate and Robert Chronicles, she once again brings readers to the pinnacle of lust, exposed within a narrative, that challenges the sensibilities as well as continues the provocative love story of sexually-adventurous, married couple Robert and Kate Beckham.

Encompassing the common and not so common experiences of a married couple Author Eglington forwards this robust tale which candidly explores and fantasizes on marriage, sexuality, and human nature. Told from the perspective of central character, Kate Beckham, this time the story takes Kate and controlling husband Robert deeper into unexplored territory as Kate's eccentric, tough and loving uncle Jack comes into their lives bearing many surprises including a psychic wife, strange drinks and life changing revelations.

Overall, She's Got the Jack, is a tale replete with melodrama, self discovery, plot twists and sundry sexual escapades, which generally made for a moderately entertaining, indecent read. Author Susan Eglington heartily writes with a sexual candor that although is nothing new in the romance genre, in instances is still enticing to read. Her portrayal of developments within Robert and Kate's relationship does keep the curiosity somewhat piqued as both characters experience expansion as both individuals and as a married, intensely sexually active

    My first active reading strategy will be questioning. My questions are why would Jack not tell Kathryn that his mother was still alive? Why would he lie to her and make her believe she is dead all these years that they have been married? I would also like to know why he never contacted his mother throughout his life? These are some of the questions that make this novel so interesting and thrilling to read. Jack had told Kathryn that his mother had died when he was nine years old but he never said how she died or any other details about her death. The first question about how Jack did not tell Kathryn his mother was alive is definitely the biggest inquiry. Maybe he had a traumatic incident involving his mom or maybe she was very dour so he does not want to see her ever again. His past is something rarely…

    To begin with, Kate Morrison is plagued by the guilt of her bother, Matt’s broken dreams. As a consequence, the guilt causes many emotional problems in her life. For instance, the constant mental pressures of guilt causes Kate’s “crisis” during one of her zoology lectures. “Because if things had turned out differently, it would have been Matt standing in front of them” (Lawson, pg. 200). During a lecture, Kate has a flashback about a childhood visit to the ponds with Matt. It is clear that Kate feels guilty for leaving Matt, who was her idol as well as her brother, behind. He taught her not only to see nature but to observe and understand it; and Kate feels that it is injustice that she should be teaching others when Matt taught her “everything” she knows. Furthermore, Katie is always in an emotional battle with her own mind due to the guilt she felt for Matt’s situation. “I had betrayed him, that was how I felt” (Lawson, pg. 201). Even though she knows Matt had caused his own demise, deep inside her mind, she feels that it was her own fault. This feeling causes her to fight with herself. Her situation shows that Kate could never come to terms with what had happened to her family and what had become of the Morrison dream. Finally, Kate’s guilt causes her to lose communication with Matt, which hurts their relationship. “What are you actually researching Kate? I don’t think you’ve ever said” (Lawson, pg. 274). It is plainly obvious that Matt is interested in…
