Publisher's summary

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.

Prime, professional gangsta and heir to a historically Black financial institution, is the man to see in Los Angeles, and especially Crenshaw, a neighborhood in South Central, and also the place Lisara now calls home. He has money, means, wisdom, bravado, and the handsome looks to go with it. The only thing missing is that one woman in his life … despite the fact that he is in a relationship with his child's mother, Nori. When he literally breaks into Lisara's home, he is faced with an attraction that he can't quite get over. And when he learns she needs saving, in the name of holy matrimony, he is all too willing to be that savior. Having endured then beat a life-threatening illness, Prime feels leaving Lisara on the table in favor of Nori wouldn't be taking advantage of his second chance at life. So while Lisara is in it for the assistance, Prime is out to convince his betrothed that there is no better man for her than him.

But what happens when the woman he's risking it all for turns out not to be thewoman he thought she was? And what will happen when Prime's trail of broken hearts leads to turbulence and tragedy for Lisara?

Find out in this tale of love, betrayal, secrets, and intrigue and what happens when a woman goes from a man of God to a man of God and the streets.

Unlikely Love Story

I really did like the storyline! Reading this unlikely live story was full and twists and turns while keeping me engaged. The performance was okay. The male narrator was cool but the female narrator’s voice was a little choppy.

Everything I ❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥

I was nervous about how long it was but after listening to the sample I couldn’t stop listening! I ❤️ the whole story fm beginning to end n the narration as well which was me taking another chance I don’t ever take if I Nvr heard of them lol! It made me laugh esp the way Prime expressed himself. Also Lisara wasn’t wimpy whiny or stupid like many of the female love interests. Looking forward to the next….great job on this one author!

Suspenful and low-key down to earth

Really enjoyed the content and contextual writing. The author really captured a lot. From spiritual, mental, and physical. How to truly confront what truths and reality of ourselves. Not only being authentic with ourselves and showing up to others with the same authenticity.
