The Pam of Babylon Boxed Set Books 2-5: A Women's Fiction/Romance Series Kindle Edition

4.2 out of 5 stars 886 ratings

Sandra Benson is fed up.

After her lover dies, she’s cast aside, invisible, expected to fade into the background. She deserves more—a life of money and power just like Jack’s wife, the beautiful Pam Smith, takes for granted.

The secrets about Jack will soon be revealed in the Pam of Babylon anthology. You will keep turning pages and not want to put it down.

Get it now!

When Jack has a heart attack on the train from Manhattan, his wife and his two lovers discover secrets and lies...and each other. But what happens next? And how did they get to that point? Find out in this addictive soap opera, combining intrigue, mystery, drama, women’s fiction, and of course, romance!

“A soap opera I can’t put down!” “When’s the next story coming out?” “Addictive!” “I can’t live without Pam.”

Don’t You Forget About Me - When Jack dies, his wife and his two lovers discover his secret life… and each other. A gripping story about love and human nature. Romance sometimes comes with pain, but in this case, it's guaranteed.

Dream Lover - A beautiful life at the beach is marred for Pam as Jack's former lovers discover the truth after his death as they visit the house on Sea View. A gritty, realistic portrait of the aftermath of deceit.

Prayers for the Dying - The fourth installment in the Pam of Babylon series finds Jack Smith’s victims attempting to move forward, grappling with the pain and horror that he left behind. Pam makes a few startling revelations about herself, while Sandra hopes for a future with exciting expectations. Marie is in a most unlikely place, with the happiest news in the bleakest circumstances. Ashton’s story of a lifetime love affair with Jack is finally told, with his heartache revealed.

Family Dynamics - When Cindy Thomasini's family tries to sue Pam, she hires attorney Dan Chua to look into the matter. He looks into more than the lawsuit, however, with the resulting excitement much to Dave's dismay.

Lisa returns from school with a companion whose brother just left the priesthood. You can imagine...In the meantime, everyone is jockeying for position, trying to get comfortable in their new digs or their own skin. Sandra has a momentary lapse into normalcy, and Ashton and Ted discover a shocking secret which exposes even more of Ashton's idiosyncrasies. In the end, a trip to Costco exposes the truth about people better left undiscovered. The soap opera continues!

  • First Sight - When Pam Met Jack

    You might love it, or you could hate it. But you’re not going to want to stop reading. Like a soap opera, the secrets and lies along with the characters in the Pam of Babylon series will draw you into the stories.

    You’re always going to want to know-what’s going to happen NEXT??

    This set includes TWO short stories and FIVE full length novels!! What a bargain for 99c!!

    Five Stars!!

    This box set is very interesting. The characters are certainly quite colorful.

    It’s a little bizarre though. I just can’t imagine a wife getting along as well as she does with a number of people her husband cheated on her with!

    It’s one thing to switch between characters, especially when there’s so many. It’s quite another to switch all over the place in time! It was a bit jarring. Particularly switching between where Jack is alive, and Jack is dead. Not once but many times. No easing into it, but very abrupt. I found it a bit distracting.

    But otherwise I thought the story was great!

    I read all these books as singles and will read them again. I couldn't believe there were one-star reviews. Hello! This is a very gritty story, and if you can't handle it, stop reading and go find a Pollyanna story.
    The characters were so vibrant, I never got confused with who was who and had what happened to her or him. This is an invigorating story or people who survived abuse and neglect. I'm glad I didn't have their existence, but glad they were able (most of them) to rise above it.
    I haven't finished reading all the other stories, but believe me, disenchanted readers who bash a book because it wasn't their cup of tea only make me more curious. If the characters HADN"T been so vibrant, those readers wouldn't have been bothered, right?
    Give Pam and her friends a family a chance. Cheer for the victors and weep for the weak. They come across so real, you'll miss them when they're gone, ready to grab the next book in the series.

    As many before me have said, the series is like a train wreck. Somehow despite the rubble, you keep on reading. Maybe. Being a series, it's a long read. At 40% of the way through the read, the train has definitely left the tracks, and I can only assume that the editor left the country. No typos up to this point, and then bam! so many it's unbelievable. That being said, I don't know if I can finish the books. The jury's still out... O.K. I finished them. Though I'm not a fan of soft porn, which this book was, I actually enjoyed the series. It was very well written, though the editing remained bad, or got worse. Among other things, we have an author who doesn't know when to use then and than, which is a pet peeve of mine. Still, the writing made it a pretty good read.

    I enjoyed reading. This could happen to any family. It was sad to see how Pam was treated. But I could see this happening to families in this day and time. It is a mixed up family but I can see this happening.

    The third book in the series was the one I had read first. When I got the set I read them all from the beginning. the third book is the most engaging with all the characters having twists and turns in their lives, but after a while it just is more of the same. With all of the weird stuff going on you can almost guess the result of the next situation. Each book always refers to other book situations so they can be read standalone. By biggest problem is with the editing. The author is good but obviously just uses spell check to edit, rather than have a real person read and edit it. This leads to the misuse of words, sometimes missing words, and sometimes a sentence that doesn't make sense or is grammatically incorrect. It's really a shame because she writes well. I hope she reads reviews so she can improve her written work.

    Good read. Follows Jack Smith and his wife, Pam through their days as young singles, as a married couple, Jack's affair, and his sudden death. The last book deals with Pam and her reaction to Jack's secrets after his sudden death on the train home. Very descriptive, you can picture it all.
