What do you get when you come across a successful heart throb of a man, known as Terrance Davenport who is dying of stage four lung cancer and has a wife, two baby mama's, 3 kids and one on the way?  You call it The Arrangment!The Arrangment is an idea Terrance comes up with when he finds out he only has a few more months to live, the only problem with this idea, is that the people it involves do not get along at all.  Tanya who is the wife of Terrance and pregnant with their first child.  Since becoming pregnant she has put her life and dreams on hold to take care of her sick husband.  Tanya knows that her husband is by far the perfect man or husband but she loves him anyways and since she took her vows of till death due them part she is willing to see that through at this tough time.  When Tanya learns about The Arrangment she is disgusited, she feels why should she have to be a part of that as wife.  Dealing with way more than she can handle, the stress of her husbands sickness, the baby mama drama, and being pregnant she finds hersel drawn to her husbands best friend for comfort. Will her betrayal to her husband be their downfall or will things get a lot worse before they get better?Portia Jackso is the mother of two o Terrance's children.  She is the ghetto baby mother that neither Tanya or Amber can stands, it seems that whenever Portia is around some drama is slowly following her.  She is very flashy into name brand everything, has a serious drinking problem, and has no filter.  She says whatever comes to mind regardless of whose feelings she may hurt. With all the drama that surrounds her and that she brings around everyone, when her own drama bites her in the face will she loose her chance at the arrangment or will this finally be the wake up call she has needed all along?Amber is the mother of Terrance oldest son.  She has always come from a long line of money, even though she has had to deal with her racist mother since her son is biracial.  Her mother hates the ground that Terrance walks on and his family.  Everytime he is mentioned she yells and makes faces and even begins to talk about the man in front of his son.  Things with Ambers mother are going from bad to worse as she disapproves everything that she does.  So when she learns of the Arrangment she has to think what will be best for her and her son.  But could making the decision turn her world in complete chaos?I was hearing so much about this  book and decided to just sit down and read it.  I started it yesterday and finished it today.  It was told such a good book that I enjoyed.  I wasnt sure what to expect while reading it but I came out really enjoying it.  These three women are a mess, they all have the same bound which is the love that they share for Terrance, but they cant seem to get along in any form.  They all go through their own challenges during the story that they have to deal with.  There are things that I didnt see coming in the story that I was like wow I did not see that coming at all.  There are twist and turns and the drama keeps going. I dont want to say too much because I dont want to give away the secrets the ending shocked me i couldnt believe that.  Some say the end end was a little off not exactly what they expected i guess i see where they could say you was expected more, but it kind of ended like a reality show when they give a blurb of what happened to each person.  Watch how three women who cant stand each other soon find a bond that will help them learn what love and friendship and even forgiveness is. Great read, drama and action packed, lies and secrets revealed, I couldnt put the book down.  Great job to the author!
