Just turned thirty-four and married for four years, Donald has a multimillion-dollar home, fast cars, and all the money he can spend. Too bad it all belongs to his wife and his father-in-law. Donald's mixed-race and exotic looks landed him the wealthy wife he wanted, and all the women on the side he can handle, but they couldn't stop his marriage from falling apart. Now, Donald stands to lose the one thing he really values -- his young son, Emerald. His father-in-law, who has unlimited funds and some serious underworld connections, wants Emerald to take his name and become heir to his fortune. Donald's options are running out, until he meets a beautiful woman with an indecent proposal that could be the answer to all his problems...or the beginning of his worst nightmare. Brimming with heat and drama, Tears on a Sunday Afternoon is a sizzling page-turner that keeps readers' attention from the very first page to its jaw dropping conclusion.
From Booklist
Donald seems to have a good life: a palatial home, a flashy car, and as much cash as he can burn through. Problem is, everything belongs to his wife (who's living in their home with her lesbian lover) and his father-in-law (who hates him). Now, Donald is not your typical upstanding citizen--to say he likes to sleep around would be an understatement of epic proportions--but he does have one redeeming quality: he loves his son, Emerald, and he is desperately searching for a way to rescue him from his crazy, abusive home life. When a beautiful, seductive woman presents Donald with an interesting, if mostly illegal, proposition, he sees a way out. This hugely entertaining novel is peppered with graphic sexual descriptions and profane language, and readers with delicate sensibilities may be shocked. All others will be thrilled. David Pitt
