What happens to four middle-aged baseball moms
when Fifty Shades of Grey hurtles into their lives?
They get hotter than a pack of June brides.
Resolving their hunger is easier said than done—and the four are soon catapulted into assessing their sex lives, desires and satisfaction with their husbands. Kelli feels neglected by her preoccupied spouse. Mel struggles to overcome her issues in the bedroom. Candy suspects her shallow husband is cheating. Lynn wants to take things to a kinkier level but her mate needs convincing.
Told from each woman’s perspective, you’ll experience what they do firsthand—including that delicious peek behind closed doors!
Will they succeed at fulfilling their own desires, regret disrupting their marriages
or learn their unions aren’t as solid as they once believed?
This book steps back in time to when the release of the original series happened and is inspired by true events. Readers and/or fans of the Fifty Shades series will likely relate and enjoy the reactions of the four mothers in question but those who never read the series or held contempt for it will also enjoy this entertaining read because at the heart of the story is the women themselves. Their roles as wives, mothers, friends and daughters (not to mention sports parents, an entire category of its own) weave throughout the story to tell a tale much larger than what's happening (or not) in bed with their respective husbands. And not all four women are enamored with Fifty Shades, bringing a realistic view of its well-earned criticisms. Fifty, Four Ways is meant to be pure entertainment (think book club/beach read/chick lit/women's fiction), but still reveals emotions and scenarios any woman can relate to, feel empathy for, or connect with.

EDITORIAL REVIEWS
If you enjoy novels about women who are finding themselves again, women who are easily relatable to any reader, and a novel about marriage, sex, and finding happiness (even if their lives seems perfect to the outside eye), then this is a must read for you!
—Elle's Book Blog, 5 stars
I loved all the characters but the four main women were true stars, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. Also, I loved how they each started reading the series with the same expectations, but they took away different lessons. There was a lot of character growth, with a touch of drama. Fifty, Four Ways is more interesting than Sex and the City and ten times more interesting than the series that inspired it! Katherine Cobb is a wonderful, funny author.

Steamy in its own right, Fifty, Four Ways starts out with four women who bond over a shared interest in the Fifty Shades of Gray book series, yet their own personal stories come into play between the lines and scenarios that made Gray the sensual hit it is. ...all four give us their own perspective, offering the reader a deeper and more honest take on what can happen when the edges of fantasy begin to blur within the realm of reality. Nothing said was veiled or shy. There are plenty of moments ... that are steamy and hot and would easily push some outside of their comfort zones, which is what I appreciated most about the novel. While most of us are content to live within our own wild imaginations, we're given a chance to live vicariously through Kelli, Mel, Candy, and Lynn. There are realistic reactions from their spouses, only adding to the depth of the story and the characters within it. ...with good forward momentum, the story never lagged and kept me more than interested... It's a strong, sexy, empowering story- one worth reading!

This is a very entertaining and well written novel. A great premise, as I have spoken to many friends about Fifty Shades of Gray and gotten varied reactions! This book could be titled " Results and Consequences" as it follows 4 ordinary women who read Fifty Shades and followed through! Each of the women react differently and their responses are the entertaining part. I have always felt that Fifty Shades is a love story and this book has some similar results, from the ordinary women that are well characterized along with their families. An easy and fun read!

Author Katherine Cobb gives us a story of four women who make a pack between them to start seducing their husbands like scenes from the book, “Fifty Shades of Gray” to their very own husbands. What ensues is often hilarious, at times sad, victorious, and the ending you will love and have you wanting more.

This book was such a fun read! I loved reading a story about what this group of moms thought and did while they read Fifty Shades of Grey. It fulfills that desire to be a fly on the wall in us all!!

Loved reading about the four women and how one book series affected their lives. Way more entertaining than the Fifty Shades series. I love anything by this author.

“Bring this book on vacation or for a stay-cation from mundane life. This book gives a more realistic version of how couples explore and navigate their passions, in a way that makes it accessible to everyday gals like me. It’s a very fast, super fun read, wherein you become quickly invested in each of the four women’s stories. I loved how the author developed each character separately, but yet intertwined each storyline seamlessly. Buckle in and take this book for a ride ladies! I thoroughly enjoyed it.”

"As a WHS baseball Mom, reading Fifty, Four Ways has me thinking about all the wonderful friends I have made during my many years of watching my boys play the game they love. Only a baseball Mom understands the conversation that happens on and off the field...I feel that I am reliving some of this through these 4 ladies, Mel, Lynn, Kelli and Candy, and trying to figure out which of my friends each one is! If you haven’t gotten the book yet it is definitely worth the purchase.. it will just make you smile."

I loved this book. It was so fun, funny, entertaining, and I can't forget juicy. The book is based on four average moms who have a bond because their sons play baseball together. They decide to read the book Fifty Shades of Grey, and we learn about their thoughts and reactions based on that story. Katherine Cobb's book was a great read. This is coming from one of the few people who has never read Fifty Shades of Grey, and has daughters, not son's. It doesn't matter! It's an awesome book, and when reading it, I was taken away from the craziness that is our world today.
