Title: Bittersweet
Description: "Clifford sees his life as picture-perfect: two wonderful young sons, a fast-track career, and a solid marriage. But fresh back from a family vacation in Florida, Clifford is hit with a stunning blow when his wife, Demetria, declares that she is leaving him for "true love, excitement, and fun" - an announcement that throws him into an uncontrollable tailspin of denial.".

"With one failed marriage under his belt, and a precious daughter his ex-wife bars him from seeing, Victor is no expert in romantic love. His philosophy? The only way to keep a woman from squeezing every last drop from you is to get out before things get too deep. But lately Victor hasn't been feeling quite like himself - especially since he's been falling for Edie and her little girl. Seems like he spends more time looking out for her than he does staking out new booty calls.".

"Even in the face of tragedy and travail, Nathan, a minister, remains hopeful. His marriage is a paragon of Christian ideals, his loving wife, Brenda, is his soul mate and support. But it wasn't always that way. Nathan has left some ugly wreckage in his wake before finding God. Now he and Brenda are truly blessed with a solid family and an adoring congregation. Then, a troubled divorcee tempts Nathan - and threatens the sacred vows he swore to uphold."--BOOK JACKET.
