Book Description
This book is about what women and men go through every day but don't want to talk about. It was such a privilege to talk to people while writing this book. Men and women go through the same thing with mistresses. A woman can date another woman's man, and a man can date another man's woman. No matter how it happens, they are both mistresses. Men and women can be insecure-even if they are in love and have kids. They can try to work out their situations, but one-sided love leads to a life of depression. At that time, God, Jesus, and the Holy Ghost will intervene. Oh, how glorious it is. It brings peace. Hallelujah. Amen. Learn to pray and give it to Jesus. I promise He will work it out.

But no one can protect Nancy if the enemy finds out these four women are one and the same, and the closer to liberation France gets, the more exposed she—and the people she loves—become.
