He's Still My Husband: When the Ex-Wife Becomes the Side Chick
by Regina SwansonContemporary Romance Women's Fiction African American InterestBook Overview
"To have and to hold from this day forward, for better for worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, ‘til death do us part."Those last five words are what Skylar zeroes in on. She isn’t dead, which technically means Jacob is still hers. She isn’t sinning at all. He still belongs to me, Skylar rationalizes.
This is not your typical “husband cheats, wife cries, they divorce, ex-husband marries his side chick” story.
When Jacob meets Skylar, sparks ignite instantly. Five years down, a lifetime to go, and explosive chemistry that’s as vital as their next breath. Year six, though? That’s when things start to unravel. The love they thought they built just might be more fragile than they ever imagined. The worst type of temptation, Ava tricks her way into Jacob’s heart, doing everything in her power to lay claim to a love she believes is her destiny. Her mission is simple: get rid of the ex and become the next. Unfortunately, Ava made a grave mistake in underestimating Skylar. Will Ava discover she’s met her match before it’s too late?
Side chicks are the worst of the worst. Scavengers. Stuck on repeat, that mantra haunts Skylar daily. Five years of “better” felt like heaven, but it’s not enough to make up for the “worse” that shattered her happily ever after. A fool in love, Skylar will never be. Good girls don’t get mad, they get even; so, who will be left standing in the end?
On the other side of ‘til death do us part’ is Max. A handsome widower, he has two things on his mind: raising his daughter and avoiding love at all costs. Unfortunately, the heart wants what the heart wants. When Max crosses paths with the type of woman who reminds him how to open his heart again to love and lust, his life will forever be changed.
