Married To An Unhinged Corporate Boss

Rate this book
Sydney Baldwin

When I said I do, I didn’t realize that I would eventually have to say I don’t. Being married to a lawyer whose family was held in high esteem wasn’t for the weak. I had to look the part, and when I stopped looking the part, my husband reminded me of that at every turn. I never thought he would unravel and become what the young kids call unhinged, but he did. Making the choice to leave him quickly taught me how far he was willing to go to keep me.

Terrance Baldwin

Money, power, and respect is all I needed in life. Oh, and Sydney—I definitely needed her. Divorcing me wasn’t an option, and I could bet my last dollar that her shady best friend Ava put the idea in her head in the first place. What both of them failed to realize was that I didn’t lose, especially not what was mine. She thought walking away would give her peace, but it only made me want to give her hell.

Terrance wasn’t as tough as he thought he was. He should’ve left Sydney alone instead of trying to break her down. That wasn’t going to happen on Khrome’s watch, and he made sure of it.
Ava was just pitiful and pathetic. She lost a great friend for someone who showed her time and time again that she didn’t mean anything to him. May she burn in eternal hell.

Terrance was a whole mess from start to finish.

Ava felt off from the very beginning too. Even her son’s name had my antennas up. When someone that close to you is angrier about your situation than you are, that’s never normal. That was a red flag to me.

Ava wanting a man is one thing, but wanting a man she watched abuse her supposed best friend for years is nasty work. Then helping him avoid the divorce Sydney wanted was stupid. Terrance treating Ava like trash was satisfying, because why are you dealing with a man married to your best friend, and who doesn’t want anything to do with you or your child. She really destroyed her own life for a man who never respected her.

Khrome brought a completely different energy. He came with pressure, but not in a toxic way. It was steady, inevitable, and you could feel Sydney slowly giving in even if she didn’t want to admit it yet.

What I appreciated most was how Sydney was written. I was relieved she wasn’t portrayed as clueless or weak. The moment she picked up on that familiar scent, I was like thank you, because it was obvious. The author didn’t drag out something that blatant. Overall decent read.

Finding her inner strength and safe space

Dayum!!! This author didn't come to play with this story. Betrayal is at an all time high and that ending is a prime example of being careful about digging a ditch for someone else because you may be digging your own. I have no feelings about Ava and Terrance's dog azzes except they got what they deserved. I love Krome and how he is with Sydney, giving her something she can truly feel. He sees her and she really needs to be seen. The title of this story is perfect because Terrance is definitely unhinged by his own making. He made his cross so now he has to bear it. I am shocked by the ending so I'm ready to see what happens next. This author brings out the emotions while reading, happy, mad, annoyance, and ahhh. And also, whoop that trick attitude because that's exactly what Ava and Terrance need. Syd was founding and using her own strength that they couldn't believe but I'm glad she found her safe space. He really about to go ape shhh when he finds out ending. The drama is on one, so I highly recommend.

When The World As You Know It Changes

Shari B, all I can say is lawd today. What a crazy ride. When I tell you I wanted to throw my kindle. These folk are unhinged. They have taken everything they want and expect it to be ok.
Terrance is a problem. I hope he finally gets his karma. It's no fun when the rabbit gets the payback. Ava is truly a friend I wouldn't want. This read is so goodt y'all. Please read it. Will Sydney ever have peace? What is enough? Will Krome stay around? Great read🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

Khrome and Sydney

That's exactly what her azz gets!!! I knew Ava was on bull💩 from that little outburst when Terrance showed up to take Sydney to lunch. Sydney should have peeped then that her bestie was an opp. Terrance is just as mentally disturbed as Ava. His evil arrogance is his downfall tho. Khrome and playing when it comes to Sydney so even though Terrance locked up Khrome making him pay with his dignity. I hope someone make it to Sydney in time before she ends up like Ava.💓💓

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Sydney was surrounded by snakes. Terrance and Ava definitely deserved each other. Sydney definitely didn’t need enemies because she was married to one and friends with the other. Ava couldn’t grasp that no matter what she would always be just Terrance side piece no matter how many kids she had for him. Ava found out the hard way about biting the hand that fed her once Sydney found out her godchild was her husband love child. Khrome was the breath of fresh air that Sydney needed. Waiting on book 2

It's such a great read. Sydney acted so dense to say she was a college professor. Ava and Terrance are two unpredictable individuals. I was really frustrated with Terrance acting the way he was acting, and I just wanted to put hands and feet on Ava. I love Khrome for Sydney. She needs a real man even if he's younger. Ava and sweet lips Terrance deserved what they got! Can't wait for part 2!

😱😱😱😱😱😱

Wow this was so crazy omg. That hoe Ava is grimy but karma came back to her. That hoe was delusional how you try to set someone house on fire with them in it and you literally 🔥. Terrence is a bi*ch and that’s what he gets. He got humiliated in jail how he humiliated Sydney. I hope Khrome comes in enough time to save my girl. I hope Terrence plan doesn’t work. Can’t wait for part 2.

So much jealousy

Sydney couldn’t catch a break! So the two most important people just hated her without a valid reason! I wasn’t too shocked about the way Terrance acted he truly couldn’t see himself losing but Ava was a shocker! With a friend like her who needs enemies! I wasn’t too shocked happy to Khrome come in and give Sydney what she needed I’m hoping she gets to keep it! Book 2 is definitely needed!

This was a good book. Terrance had me ready to throw my Kindle so many times. I love the relationship between Khrome and Sydney. Ava has totally lost her mind but I can't wait for a book 2 because the cliffhanger was something else. Definitely a lot to look forward to and I definitely recommend this book to others.

This book started out with drama on the first page poor Sydney. Who needs a husband like Terrence the devil thinking money and poor rules the world smh. Ava wow what a friend you have to sleep with one eye open. Khrome what a breath of fresh air age ain't nothing but a number in my Aaliyah voice. Hurry up part 2. Definitely a must read.

Omg Sydney cant catch a break. AVA deserves everything she is getting she was so trifling look at it now she went to set the house on fire an ended up on fire. Terrance deserves everything he is getting in jail. KHROME is so sweet an just the man Syndney needs if she makes it out of this.

3.5 ⭐️

What in the entire hell? What an ending. That was something that I was expecting, how are you trying to kill someone only to kill yourself? Khrome is really about to feel a certain way about what happened to Sydney. Terrance deserves every bad thing happening to him because he's evil. I'm curious to see what he told his uncle to do. I'm about to read part 2 now.

😳😳😳

Like what in the entire 🤬. Ava is crazier than I thought. Terrance is also insane because there ain’t no way he thought his reasoning made any sense. The only sane people in this damn book was Rome and Sunny. Okay and Queenie. I literally don’t know what to say. You are going to have to read it yourself.

This was crazy. I can’t believe Ava crazy ass. Like she was really dizzy over dick. I feel like Terrance father could’ve done more to control his fucking son. He created a monster and the tried to play the field with Sydney. And I’m glad Terrance ass got humiliated in the end.
Khrome stood ten toes. He knew what he wanted and didn’t let up off Sydney. I pray he stay safe in Part 2 Chile.

I don’t even know where to begin because WTF?! Let me skip straight to Part 2 because Ava, baby… karma is definitely that girl. And Terence—whew, Throat Goat?! Lord, I’m still laughing! 😂 I’m so ready for Khrome and Sydney to finally get their happy ending. The way this story is dragging me—10/10!

Unhinged Corporate Boss

Terrence was a waste of a human being. Ava was just delusional. I'm wondering if Terrance and Ava's son must look just like her? Khrome is what Sydney needed to help her build her confidence up again. I'm hoping Uncle Frank let Terrance rot in jail cause if not it's going to back fire 🔥 on both of them.

Straight fire

I hate a thot that pretends like she your best friend only to be envious of you, the whole time sleeping with your best friend man. I'm glad Sydney found about Ava. Terrence deserves that spot in jail with his lowdown but!! Just evil smh

Great read! Oh my goodness, Terrance is nothing but a narcissist through and through! Sydney should have left him a long time ago. Ava is supposed to be Sydney’s best friend but sleeping with her husband Terrance. I hope the divorce is granted to Sydney so she can be a couple with Khrome! Part two is now available and on my way to read it!
