Single Mama's Got More Drama
Vanessa Cain returns in Perrin's over-the-top sequel toSingle Mama Drama. With her fiancé dead and his wife hounding her for her condo, Vanessa is in desperate straits. Ex-boyfriend Lewis has proposed marriage and financial stability, but her heart belongs to Chaz, a motivational speaker who left her after she lied to him. Vanessa must also contend with Byron, her daughter's deadbeat father, who has been growing increasingly aggressive in his demands to see his child. The book doesn't lack for drama, but it is deficient in most other areas: the characters—including Vanessa—are unbelievable, and the writing is as pedestrian as the plotting is clumsy.(Jan.)Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
