The Marriage Bed Kindle Edition

by Lakisha Johnson (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars 1,220 ratings
Lynn and Jerome Watson have been together since meeting in the halls of Booker T. Washington High School, in 1993. Twenty-five years, a house, business and three children later they are on the heels of their 18th wedding anniversary and Lynn's 40th birthday.

Her only request ... a night of fun, at home, with her husband and maybe a few toys.

Lynn thinks their marriage bed is suffering and wants to spice it up. Jerome, on the other hand, thinks Lynn is overreacting. His thoughts, if it ain't broke, don't break it trying to fix it. Then something happens that shakes up the Watson household and secrets are revealed but the biggest secret, Jerome has and his lips are sealed.

Bible says in Hebrews 13:4, "Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous." But what happens when life starts throwing daggers, lies, turns and twists?

    This book was so good. I loved everything about it and although I’m not married I still got a lot out of this book. I actually thought they were going to get back together but she did the right thing. Until Jerome fix himself he’s going to continue to hurt women. Mattie did the right thing cause she was crazy. I feel bad for the youth pastor they she killed. Deacon and his wife is a fool. Thanks for sharing another great book!!

    5.0 out of 5 stars From brokenness to restoration
    Reviewed in the United States on September 7, 2019

    I gave this book 5 stars because I enjoyed it. I personally feel that this book tapped into genuine emotions of a marriage that's been damaged from infidelity. More than enjoyment; I got real substance from this story. This story can be applied to more than just infidelity, but it can be applied to any situation that has broken you to the core, it lets you know that with Prayer and surrendering that God can heal you, He can heal the brokenness,you can forgive and freely love again without reservations. After a mistake and then the forgiveness, forgiveness does not mean that things are going to go back like it was, sometimes it's the act of letting go and moving on without the angry.

    A couple faces the harsh reality of restoring their marriage or letting it go. We often make mistakes but we do not choose the consequences that will follow! Jerome sacrifices the people who loves him most by choosing to go against a vow he made. Although forgiveness is available, he forfeits a lot in the end!

    This was a great book, lots of spiritual insights, but it was not entertaining if i wanted to read a book of this magnitude you can always go to the bible, and for some people that says they can't understand the bible, a study bible is always better to read.

    1.0 out of 5 stars This book should NOT be included as "religious or inspirational".
    Reviewed in Canada on April 21, 2020
    Verified Purchase
    Not sure who would have classified this book as "religious/inspirational" but it is NOT. It has sex, bad language and portrays the characters (a minister and his wife) as never abiding by the vows they took when they married. Needless to say, I didn't finish it and am not happy to even have it on my "deleted" list. I think the most disgusting thing about it is that the person who tried to write it used the Christian faith as a foil for the disgusting behaviour portrayed in the book. Also, I had to give it 1 star. It should be minus 5 stars.
