Adam is a charming and extremely sensual man. He meets attractive Lucy, who falls madly in love with him, she later proposes marriage. Lucy brings him home to meet her family, and soon, they too, one by one succumb to his allure. Lucy's serious and nerdy sister Laura, who's never experienced a wild romance before, falls for Adam's sexiness. The eldest married sister Alice, in a mid-life crisis, begins an affair with him for the thrill. Even Lucy's brother David, who seeks Adam's sex-advice regarding his girlfriend, develops a small "man-crush." Meanwhile Lucy, prior to the wedding, hooks up with an ex of hers. In the end, Adam personally narrates that he did what he did, to make everybody happy. In fact, each character after being with Adam, was able to resolve his/her personal issues. Adam and Lucy get married, and put the past behind them.

Best part of story, including ending: It was enjoyable to see Adam cater to the different needs of the sisters.

Best scene in story: When Laura, who is obviously prudish, sees Adam and is instantly attracted.

Opinion about the main character: I guess Adam is something of a narcissist, but he justifies it by saying that he was only helping others.
