Lust & Marriage
Synopsis
From the outside looking in, people seem to think that marriage is the epitome of picture-perfect. However, looks can be deceiving and the truth can be even more devastating.
Meet Dakota Wilson, a 40-year old nurse in her prime who is sick and tired of living her life inside a bubble. Not to mention, there’s a whole other host of issues including her husband Michael’s sudden mid-life-crisis, along with a promiscuous adult daughter Asia, and a meddlesome mother-in-law Helen who are all on the verge of driving her completely insane.
Michael Wilson seems to have it all. He’s the prestigious 45-year old principal of Cordova High School, the deacon of his church, and an upstanding citizen in the eyes of the world. However behind closed doors, Michael is leading a double life that will surely cause the earth to crumble beneath his feet.
Yvonne Martin has never been so happy in life. For the first time she’s found the ideal job and living in a lavish condo like she’s always dreamt about. Now the only thing she needs to complete the equation is a husband and a couple of children. Too bad for Yvonne that the man she desires to be with just so happens to belong to none other than Dakota herself.
Has Yvonne bitten off way more than she can chew when it comes to winning over Michael’s heart? Or will Michael wound up doing the unthinkable and end up losing his loyal and loving wife of ten years forever? After all they did take vows for better or for worse. Right?

This was not only a love story, but it was the works. This book showed how things can really work out of you believe and have faith

Good read!
The conversations were a little drawn out! The message was deep on forgiveness even though the act seems unforgivable. The get back was good.

What A Read
The story grabs your attention from the start. The storyline is well developed. The characters are introduced with enough information to understand their role in the story. It's about infidelity, love, trust, family, and secrets.
Michael oh Michael thought like any other man instead of working and valuing what he had at home, he felt the grass was greener somewhere else. Kota not paying attention to her home didn't notice the signs.
This book A deals with so many levels of today's issues. A great READ!!!

I promise this book was so good from the beginning to the end. I just don't know if I could of fault for this marriage. It was way too much to deal with. Let say this, Everything that happened to Michael I was all for it. I wanted to just knock him out. That side chick was just too bold. Lawd, I didn't think I was going to like his mama but she turned out to be a good person. I wanted to knock her out at the beginning.
Ms. Redd did her thing with this book. She know how to bring drama, make you mad, wanna fight, then bring you all the way down. You be wanting to have a peace party.

Amazing
I thought Dakota would have killed Michael and dragged Yvonne. She had all rights too. Cheating is one thing but Michael took his disrespect and ran with it. Dakota was beyond hurt behind what her husband did and the way he did it. Michael was trifling on so many levels. He thought he could have his cake and eat it too but what he fell to realize. Everything wasn't as it seems. While trying to figure out how to get Dakota back. He also found out that father and that Church had more secrets, lies, and betrayal than he ever imagined and that his mother had been hiding a few thing's as well. Yvonne was a gold digging tramp with a hidden agenda. I was shocked at first by her scheming but then again. Her whole aura screamed scandalous.

Great read
Only God could save a marriage like this and make a person forgive the deepest of hurts. I despised Michael's arrogant behind - truly he had his father's ways. He thought he was the man and got played big time; his mama did a whole lot of praying to save his tail. I loved Legend (well except for the drug dealing); he laid heavy knowledge, having learned from his own mistakes.
Great read, with many twists. Not sure if I've read this author before, but I'll be checking for more of her work.

wow
Just a little bit too much for me. Started out ok but as the storyline went on the twist and turns went off the road. And that Michael, no way in the world he should of been given another chance.

Glad that Michael found out that the grass is not always greener on the other side! The pastor was a low down snake! How could you do that to your wife, son and the church!
