After her husband leaves her for a younger woman, Erica Morris starts a group for ex wives of deadbeat dads. Little did she know just how many there were. In the process of rebuilding her life, someone tries to blackmail her. Can she put the past behind her or will it catch up to her?
EXCERPT:
Does
everyone start out married life with rose colored glasses? I'm sure no one
thinks their marriage will end in divorce. I certainly didn't. Mine was the
perfect love, the perfect marriage, I was going to have the perfect life, and
it was an absolutely perfect day for a wedding. The sun streamed through the
window as I walked down the aisle on my father’s arm. Johnny looked so handsome
standing at the altar waiting for me.
Oh, I
knew we'd have our ups and downs. I've always been a realist. I know nothing in
life is perfect. But we came darn close. At least that’s what I thought. So how
did I end up divorced, fifteen years later? If
anyone would have told me about the turn my life would take I’d have laughed at
them.
Oh, I’m Erica Morris. Well, I was Erica Morris until recently.
Now I’m divorced and left to raise two kids. Johnny, my husband left me for a
younger woman. Not a new story, I know, but that doesn't make it hurt less. To
top it all off, he cut himself off from our kids and left me to be the bearer
of bad news. To make matters worse, he refused to pay child support. Not that
he couldn't afford it. Believe me, he could well afford it, and then some. But he left us penniless? I need to back up a bit. I remember calling the meeting of other
single mothers to order.
