Stan’s wife Erica, told him she was pregnant by another man who wanted no part in raising the baby. Contracts were signed transferring custody and all fatherly rights to Stan. But three years later, he walks in his house to find his wife and her ex-lover in a compromising position. A horrible accident has happened and Michael, the biological father, wants his child back. Erica tells Stan she won’t let the boy be taken, but Stan finds text messages between Erica and Michael, finds proof they’ve been seeing each other, and wonders if Erica is planning on leaving him and taking the little boy to reunite him with his natural father. Abandoned as a child by his own father, and forced years ago to surrender custody of his daughter, Stan will do whatever he must not to lose his son, including taking a life.

Good story, but poorly written and typos galore.

Love R M Johnson. This book was our April Book Club selection. I didn’t know that it was a follow up to My Wife’s Baby. His work is typically flawless. This one was laced with errors. It was a quick read. I am over this type f reading: wife gets pregnant by someone else, husband raises him and then lover, because of unforeseen circumstance, wants his child. And, oh, did I mention, wife keeps having sex with the lover. Adults make choices and children are in the middle. I could care less about Erica, Stan or Michael. Come on RM...move me past this type of drama.

‘My Wife Lover’ is the follow up to ‘My Wife's Baby’. Michael wants his biological son in his life despite 3 years earlier given up all parental rights. Stan is committed to not letting that happen because David is his son; but Erica is not making it easy. Stan is a wimp in love. Erica is growing cruel. I liked how Stan and his father developed a relationship and the support his father provided. I enjoyed how the story developed that Stan and Erica both had something on the other that each wanted kept hidden. Erica desperation was a shocker; and it brought sense to the entire storyline between the two books. I especially loved the ending that included Serena. There are some grammatical errors. I read this book in one day. It is a very good read. Kudos RM Johnson!!

It seemed to take me forever to read this book. There were so many typos and sentence structure errors that made this story so hard to get into. I have a few other books by RM Johnson because of such great reviews so I will give another a try.

This book was crazy. I had to get over the grammatical and spelling errors to finish the book. It was an unbelievable plot with annoying characters, but it made for a 'glued to the page' read. It was like watching a train wreck.

I really enjoyed this novel. Great follow up novel!

[Tanishia Pearson · Rating 3 out of 5]

It was a good story, especially if you read the first book. It was a good sequel but there were far too many errors that were a distraction to me as a reader.
