From a Pastor to a Plug
Patrice Balark

Diva. A little more conversative than her besties, is married to a future pastor and on the verge of becoming her own version of the first lady. To the outside world, Diva and AJ are living in a perfect paradise but behind closed doors, that couldn’t be further from the truth. When an argument ensues, Diva discovers that her husband is wearing a two-faced mask and the real small shady shows up. The gist of everything boils over when she unearths a game-changing secret that creates a crater-size hole in her marriage. As she’s tackling her ordeal, she realizes how her support system is not so tight and can only lean on a select few. Will Diva be able to overcome the challenges that her marriage presents?
Italy. The most carefree of the band of friends. With pressure from her parents to find a husband and having some kids, Italy is nowhere near ready for all of that. Especially since that doesn’t equate to her truth but is it really her truth? On the flip side, Italy receives an ultimatum from her “best friend” about the reality of their relationship. When she doesn’t conform to the pressure and starts doing her own thing, Italy finds herself in a volatile situation that she doesn’t take it seriously. Unfortunately, Italy painfully learns all too late why she should’ve taking the warnings more severely.
In this first installment of this mind-bending African American urban fiction saga, everything is not what it seem. Secrets are more twisted than a game of Twister . Betrayal hits harder than a sumo wrestler. And love appears to get lost worst than traveling through a maze. Check out how Diva and Italy use their life’s GPS to navigate the curves and bends of love, marriage, and relationships.
