What Had Happened Was (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781955836258)

Told with humor through the unbreakable bonds of friendship and family, What Had Happened Was examines what women will do to "have it all"--and gives them permission to leave room for their own happiness.

Toi Boxx has always had the work hard, play hard mindset. Sure, she likes a good party and nice things, but she jumps out of bed each morning and takes pride in her project management work too. She's good at it, and that means she's able to treat her two little boys to pizza at their favorite arcade on the weekends and to save for a nice house with her baby daddy, LaMar.

LaMar is a great dad and incredible cook with an unmatched sense of humor. But when he loses his job and shows no interest in finding a new one, suddenly it feels like Toi is doing all the work and LaMar is doing all the play.

Luckily, Toi has her momma and two best friends Kēssa and Dena to help, and she can tell them anything.

See, what had happened was . . .
