Book Description
With more than four million copies sold, Wifey is Judy Blume's hilarious, moving tale of a woman who trades in her conventional wifely duties for her wildest fantasies—and learns a lot about life along the way. Sandy Pressman is a nice suburban wife whose boredom is getting the best of her. She could be making friends at the club, like her husband keeps encouraging her to do. Or working on her golf game. Or getting her hair done. But for some reason, these things don't interest her as much as the naked man on the motorcycle...

Book Description
When Jamie Otis agreed to be placed in a scientifically arranged marriage on TV's most controversial and groundbreaking reality show, Married At First Sight, she knew that saying "I do" to Doug Hehner, a complete stranger, was a huge risk. What she didn't know was how to be a wife! Through trial and error - and more ups and downs than a roller coaster - Jamie learned to quickly negotiate all of those universal problems all newlywed couples face, from leaving the toilet seat up to winning over the in-laws. All the while, her traumatic past and unresolved issues with an ex-boyfriend threatened to derail the healthiest relationship she'd ever been in. In her shocking, unflinching and hilarious memoir, Wifey 101: Everything I Got Wrong After Finding Mr. Right, Jamie fumbles her way through the newlywed game and lives to tell the tale.

Book Description
“Happy wife. Happy life.” This recurrent phrase has slowly morphed from folksy colloquialism to full-blown mantra by an ever-increasing share of married men all around the modern world. The irony [or the ignominy–depending on which side of the aisle you sit on] being that no such idiom appears to exist in the reverse. Nevertheless, for Bethuel “Bee” Blazey, finding that special someone to stand beside him while he grows his family business has proven to be an exercise in futility. More meme than Kermit the Frog sipping black tea. Introducing, M.A.I.A., short for Modifiable Artificial Intelligence Android. Designed to complement the forgotten men and women on the go who struggle with the ever-evolving intricacies of relationships in today’s hyperactive, online-focused world. Maia’s unique conjugal abilities would prove to be a welcome addition to Bee’s mental, physical and emotional well-being. But as renowned 19th century poet, Emily Dickinson, once wrote, “Fame Is A Bee.” The more self-aware Maia becomes, the more Bee realizes that the old adage still rings true: There’s no such thing as a free lunch. Everything comes with a price. He is at a crossroads with the machine poised to take total control. If a return to normalcy is what he truly desires, then it is action he must take; while being cognizant to remember Newton’s third law: “For every action, there’s an equal and opposite reaction.” The battle of the sexes has just been upgraded.

Book Description
With her curvy body, long jet black hair, and a face to rival any super model, Allyson Chase is every man's fantasy, and she sees nothing wrong with sleeping her way to the top to maintain the life of luxury her good looks have afforded her. From athletes to politicians, she's been with them all. When Byran Ward, a wealthy pastor, enters the scene, Allyson could not be more excited. Never one to pass up an opportunity, she turns on her charm and soon finds herself sharing his bed and swiping his Platinum American Express card. Beyond his physical attraction to her, Byran has his own agenda. He's vying to become the pastor of Cornerstone Baptist Church, a ten-thousand-member congregation that is sure to give him more of the prestige and notoriety he craves. He matches all of their qualifications except for one: he needs a wife. Knowing that Allyson is a certified gold digger, he makes her an offer she can't refuse. She can have the life of luxury she desires, an instant social circle of well-known pastors' wives, and anything else she needs to act the part. The only stipulation is she must always remember it's just an arrangement. It's a façade; it's not about love. No one is more surprised than Allyson when she discovers the material perks are not enough to satisfy her. She develops real feelings for her new husband, and she soon wants more attention and affection than Byran is willing to give her. Allyson is left with a decision. Does she give it all up for true love, or does she stick it out and try to prove that money can buy you happiness? The Preacher's Wifey is a well-written, page-turning, intense drama that will stay with you long after you read the last page. A wonderful story of growing faith and learning how to rely on God, this novel is full of messages of God's love and forgiveness. This is DiShan Washington's best work yet.
