Historia
The day Lisara Compton caught her husband in a rather compromising position changed her life in a way neither she nor her sons ever saw coming. Realizing too late that divorcing him would cause a domino effect of turmoil, she is now forced into an uncomfortable life that she can't seem to stay afloat in. With her eldest son acting out and a nonexistent ex-husband, Lisara feels things can't get any worse. That's until her ex betrays her and their son in a way that leaves her in need like never before. It seems she just can't catch a break, until she meets him.

A great family oriented story with a hood twist
Revisado: 05-08-24
I appreciated that this story took a broken African American family from trials to triumph. I also liked the way a black father figure made sense of how a real family goes to bat for the good of the family with teaching manhood, trust and loyalty.

Historia
Born on a plantation in Charles City, Virginia, Pheby Delores Brown has lived a relatively sheltered life. Shielded by her mother’s position as the estate’s medicine woman and cherished by the Master’s sister, she is set apart from the others on the plantation, belonging to neither world. She’d been promised freedom on her eighteenth birthday, but instead of the idyllic life she imagined with her true love, Essex Henry, Pheby is forced to leave the only home she has ever known. She unexpectedly finds herself thrust into the bowels of slavery at the infamous Devil’s Half Acre.

Revisado: 10-08-23
This story was very well told. It was full of happiness; full of sadness as tears were jerked the way true life happens. I will give this a thumbs up for sure.

Awesome series seemed so lifelike.
Revisado: 05-17-23
I read “Love, Honor, Betray”, because it followed up with an update to its two previous books that dealt with the lives of Hubert, Maggie and Jesse. The 3rd book did not disappoint. I’m grateful for the happy ending.

This was a two week read that went a lot easier than expected because the content was not so much of a celebrity but more of a real black woman’s experience to life events. I found it very interesting.
