Lutishia Lovely and Kensington Press | A worse blow to black culture than Coco Marrow

Desperate to make her marriage work, Passion turns to Reverend Doctor O's wife, Maxine, for advice. But Maxine is busy trying to clean out the skeletons in her own marital closet—because even the holiest have secrets…
