Drama! Drama! And More Drama!

Celeste, Monica, and Imani are three half sisters with a lot of drama. Celeste's marriage has been on a downward spiral for years. Celeste suspects that her sexy policeman husband Sharief is patrolling more than just the streets. Everything comes to a head when Celeste finds out who her husband is keeping late hours with. Monica has been very unlucky in love and never planned to fall in love with her sister's husband Sharief. But will Monica break off this affair or is she already in too deep? Imani's deadbeat boyfriend Walik is out of jail ready to rekindle their relationship and to be a father to their son Jamal. Walik has some stiff competition when Imani meets a sexy DJ name Kree that gives her and Jamal the love and attention they need. Starr is the mother of these three siblings and is about to finally marry the love of her life. But Starr is going through her own drama when confronted by her past relationship mistakes. The Ex Factor is a highly entertaining novel by Tu-Shonda Whitaker. Whitaker brought a fast-paced drama with some humorous dialogue. I liked how this author showed how a mother's decision to have different men in her life can affect the lives of her children. I also enjoyed the fact that this story showed that women are just as responsible as the men for their relationship woes. There are also some hilarious characters and situations that will have readers laughing out loud! Mama Byrd, Red, and Jamal are just plain crazy! The Ex Factor is the perfect blend of drama, sensuality, and comedy. Tu-Shonda Whitaker will definitely have readers begging for more.
