Revenge Is More Sweet Than Bitter (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780989376310)

Genevieve shares a common fear that plagues many women: the fear of being just like their mothers. Undoubtedly, she has good reason to want to be nothing like her ill-mannered and venomous mother, Mama Rose, who keeps her bible in the cupboard next to her stash of poison. However, when her marriage starts to fall apart, Genevieve finds out that blood runs thicker than water and she may be more like her devilish mother than she cares to admit. Genevieve 's husband, Jayson, is a respected defense attorney who rescued her from her overbearing mother, saved her from serving time in prison and gave her a fairytale life. When Jayson starts coming home in the wee hours of the morning, reeking of gardenias, Genevieve suspects that her prince charming is seeing someone else. She hates to admit that her eccentric mother, Mama Rose, may be right; men are nothing but cheating dogs that deserve a dose of their own medicine. Determined to find out if Jayson is really putting in overtime at work or in another woman's bed, Genevieve cooks up all sorts of scandalous schemes including hiring a stripper to test Jayson's will. As if tracking Jayson's whereabouts isn't keeping her busy enough, her best-friend's, Myeisha, abusive ex-boyfriend is out jail and back to his old games. Protecting Myeisha from him isn't going to be easy since Myeisha hasn't found the guts to stand up for herself, but when he asks Myeisha to help him rob the bank where she works as a teller Genevieve knows she has to help her friend get rid of him once and for all. Infuriated with men and their evil ways, Genevieve is determined to seek revenge on the men in her life who have wronged her. With the sweet taste of revenge in mind, Genevieve enters into a battle to protect her best-friend and to even the score with her husband. The only thing that stands in her way is her shady past that threatens to come to the light and expose her own deepest and darkest secrets. Mama Rose offers Genevieve an easy solution to all her problems; it comes in a mysterious brown leather pouch and carries a hefty price that may cost everyone involved their lives. Can Genevieve save her marriage and her best-friend while keeping her own personal demons under control or will she learn that revenge is best served with a spoonful of sugar?
