Randy can't seem to control his daughter's mother and her vindictive ways and as a result, it seems to wreak havoc on his relationship with Monique, the love of his life. Will he stop the "baby-mama drama" once and for all to salvage his relationship? Abe ventures into an illicit affair with his boss, Taki, not realizing that to her its more than just a sex. Meanwhile, his wife Nakiya is battling with neuralgia, a painful nerve disease, which Abe believes is the cause of the suffering of their marriage. Will he end this steaming hot affair with Taki and abide by his marriage vows, "for better or for worse...in sickness and in health...til' death do us part", before it ruins the life he has built with his wife?? Travis hit rock bottom ever since he came out of the closet with his gay lifestyle. Abe will not even acknowledge that he is his brother, his father disowned him the day he admitted his secret. The only family he has is Randy and his mother. Then he meets Paul, a man that says that he loves him but is not willing to leave his family for Travis or "come out of the closet" about his lifestyle. Will Travis realize that he can never be truly happy with Paul due to his reluctance to admitting that he is gay??
    Dwayne Joseph has delivered the realest, most intense novel ever written "under his pen". I really enjoyed this novel because it talks about real life issues that people are struggling with in their lives. The married man that thinks that having an affair is more relieving than working on the problems in his marriage, the man who cannot move on with his life due to his childs mother not wanting to see him happy with anyone else, and the man who is afraid to admit that he is a homosexual because he may lose everything are all struggles that people are enduring everyday. This novel was EXCELLENT!
