  “Family,
  
  Sisters Vanessa and Dionne seem to have trouble all over them. Older sister Rosalyn may not be in much trouble now, but she's seen her share and tries to assist as they try to get their selves in order.
  
  Vanessa is brutal in her courtroom. She has dreams and her marriage sometimes collides with her time. When her husband is no longer capable of excusing Vanessa's missing in action tactics, she's caught up with pride and having to learn to not only forgive, but adjust. Is this marriage worth it?
  
  Dionne, the baby of the trio, is used to being smothered with attention. She's in love with a man who hasn't vocalized his emotions for her. She knows he's married, but they are divorcing and Dionne is ready to be the newest Mrs. However, when love plays a cruel joke with her heart, Dionne is hell bent of seeking revenge. Will the woman scorned have love again?
  
  I haven't had the pleasure of reading anything by ReShonda Tate Billingsley prior. I was engaged throughout the entire book and loved the way the bossy, intrusive aunt had her say. This is a book I'd easily recommend to all.

  “The Devil Is a Lie!!!
  
  Judge Vanessa Colton-Kirk is all business when it comes to setting the precedence in her courtroom. Agenda seeking, Vanessa tosses caution to the wind and in her effort to secure a seat in the senate someday she causes a rift in her marriage. While Thomas is always bending, forgiving and easy going, he can no longer stand by and allow Vanessa to walk over him. When Vanessa finally relinquishes her pride to do after her man, another woman, who is willing to offer Thomas what Vanessa keeps denying him, has already made an appearance. Can Vanessa stop the devil from destroying her marriage, or will her divorce become another case in her courthouse?
  
  Baby sister Dionne is in love with being in love. All she’s ever wanted was a man. A man to love her, marry her and give her babies. The man currently in her life, Roland, is married, but thatʼs in name only. While he canʼt say it, Dionne knows that he truly loves her. Well she hoped he did. When an ex shows up and Roland, Dionneʼs knight and not so shining armor, is chased out of his home. Will that be enough to convince Dionne heʼs Mister All Wrong? Or is love so blind that drama keeps creeping in?
  
  "Can I Get A Witness" by ReShonda Tate Billingsley is about faith, love, forgiveness and dealing with life along with its ups and downs. I truly enjoyed this story from beginning to end and would definitely recommend this read to others. I would love an update on these characters in the future.
  
  You can weather any storm with God in the center.”

  “Reshonda has done it again. This book was excellent. It is a quick read and the author captures attention throughout the book. It also helps you if you are working on forgiveness and also helps you to evaluate your relationships. Great job Reshonda.”
