Renee, Danielle, and Kayla are in trouble. Big trouble.
Man trouble.
Renee is married to a great guy. The hard-working,
dependable, loving father to her children, tremendous
provider type. Problem is, despite all that, he does
nothing for her where it counts. In the bedroom. So
Renee's been stepping out, getting her groove on with
whomever she desires. John doesn't seem to notice her
bedroom boredom but she gets a wakeup call when he
involves them both in a new game.
Danielle has a man she can't depend on, just the last of
many. She has a thing for thugs. Low-rider jeans-wearing
types with underwear sticking out, cornrows, gold chains...
and no j-o-b. But it doesn't seem to matter to Dani as
long as she's getting her sexual needs satisfied. To make
matters worse, she's having a hard time taming her hot-to-
trot teenage daughter. When a guy comes along who is less
thug and more man, should Dani forget about the bad boys
and try for a chance at something more?
Kayla, overweight and insecure, has had a steady guy for
four years. Only he's a prominent—and very married—
pastor. Her girlfriends, Renee and Dani, have been trying
to get her to drop him for years, and now, a handsome co-
worker is showing interest. But Kayla's convinced that
she's in love and if she just plays her cards right,
she'll be the next First Lady. That is, until Pastor
Brown's games take an unexpected turn that could mean life
or death.
Angie Daniels is particularly adept at stringing together
plot twist after plot twist in ways that the reader never
sees coming. At times, the graphic sex scenes were a bit
over the top, at least for me, but if one likes their
romance hot, then TROUBLE LOVES COMPANY may be just the
read. I never felt completely drawn into the story but
rather as though I were listening to it, which detracted a
bit from my enjoyment. But in the midst of their sexual
escapades, the three main characters search their hearts
and struggle with issues that many women face in order to
find true love. That was enough to keep me reading.

pregnant, Danielle's worlds collide as she finds herself

Johnson is
concerned, Reverend Leroy Brown walks on water-despite the
fact that
