Growing up poor in Texas, Vera Lomax used every gold-digging trick in the book to land a rich husband. Now living in the lap of luxury in San Francisco, her only job is to fawn over her much-older husband, so it's been easy for her to balance a life of shopping and affairs with younger men with a major secret: the 16-year bribery of one of her husband's mistresses to keep her pregnancy under wraps. Vera figures that a little hush money every month will ensure her husband's fortune is hers alone....

Charles thought he had it all - until a devastating betrayal and the shattering loss of his family drove him to living on the streets. Beatrice is the first person who's truly cared about him in a long time. Little by little, he's finding reasons to care about rebuilding his life. Drawn to Charles and the temptation of a second chance, Beatrice is faced with the hardest of decisions. But his insight, secrets - and the reminder of a profound past encounter - will give her unexpected inspiration, gratitude, and the strength she needs to find her way - perhaps in time for Christmas.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 524
Raised by a widowed mother, Jill Reed has come a long way from her difficult youth. But while she may not have had money, Jill never doubted she was rich in love. Her mother, Connie, made Jill the center of her world. Now, even though she has a young family of her own, it’s Jill’s turn to care for her ailing mother. When early dementia begins to set in, Connie starts talking about Jill’s “other life.” Jill assumes it’s just rambling confusion. Still, Connie’s stories about Jill’s childhood, and her father’s early death, never quite added up.

I enjoyed this story
I like this story. At times it seemed like Lo didn't care about but herself. I always liked Floyd and there was always an amount of pity that I had for him. But Paul was just an ass for no reason. You could always tell he looked down on her. The ending left much to be desired but overall it was a good story

Great Read
With the title and Lo's story line , I expected a bit more. This does not mean the book wasn't good bc it was still a decent read. Beginning of the book begins a bit slow, picks up shortly afterwards. Perfect for listening to while in traffic to/from work. (Did I mention I have the audio book) The ending leaves you on edge and I just wish SHE STILL HAD IT COMING (hint, hint for a continuation)

Good read
I really did enjoy this book. I was happy with most of the characters. The only thing is I wish that she had ended up with one of the guys. And when I say that I mean one of her husband's.

Ugh
I loved the story line but the narration wasn’t good. All the swallowing and pauses got on my nerves.

Classic semi-ghetto fiction
Not a bad book. It's definately an interesting read from Ms. Patricia R. Floyd, who is always great. However, the book has a few things in it that just seem implausible, and overly dramatic, but that's usually par for the course for novels like these. Very entertaining.

I enjoyed the audible version better than the printed version.

The main character was my favorite because she was so ope and honest about her feelings.
What about Patricia R. Floyd’s performance did you like?
I enjoy all of Patricia R. Floyd's books. She is one of my favorite narrators.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
I was moved by the main character feeling empathic to a man she once solely loved.

Great
I really liked this book and would recommend it. It had a great storyline and sexual storylines. I wish this book was a movie or TV show.
Lo was funny, nasty( sleeping with men she said had a body odor) and stupid for marrying Floyd because he looked sad and sleeping unprotected with a guy she just met. I hate how everything blew up in her face. She was also wrong for not telling him about the baby. Now their son want have any family if something happens to her.
Val should have kept her mouth shut! I loved the mouning Lisa character. She needs a book to keep this series going. lol
