About this listen
Sit back, relax and enjoy with JaDori Johnson Quick for a tumultuous journey of an inner struggle and turmoil for the goal and sake of marriage. A young, sexy, ride or die chick who plays the survival street game just like a man while searching for her childhood dream of Love and Marriage, JaDori he encounters many characters that claim to be her man but really are wolves in sheep's clothing. Some of those men are loyal and some just out for themselves. She purrs for them when needed, sets an enemy up for the kill at will and bitch-slaps anyone anywhere when she feels she has been wronged.
JaDori wasn’t born this way; she got here because the ones in her life molded her. Becoming a mistress at the age of 16 and resorting to prostitution, drug abuse and lawlessness just to endure life’s challenge, she shows she was born to survive. As an adult she is not the greatest mom, though her kids love her and get what they need in return. Her children’s father is back and forth between lovers. She fights for her man, but in the end she moves on in search of what he couldn’t provide. Men love to love her, because she exudes sexiness. Her friends are few, but totally committed to her and what she stands for. Delve with JaDori into her world of sex, lies, murder, and self-discovery like no other could endure.
