At forty years old, Sky has perfected the art of giving everything to men who give nothing back.
She can cook a meal that'll make you believe in love. She's beautiful, smart with money, and has all the skills to be the perfect wife. But somehow, she keeps choosing men who see her as a resource, not a partner.
First, there's Dexter—her long-distance boyfriend who disappears every weekend to play house with his baby mama, but keeps Sky on the hook with smooth words and empty promises.
Then she meets Mase, a homeless man she thinks she can save. She withdraws $15,000 from her retirement. Buys him a truck. Gives him her home. Her heart. Everything.
Until she overhears him laughing on the phone, bragging to a friend about how easy she was to con.
Rock bottom comes fast and hits hard. But sometimes you have to lose everything to realize the most dangerous lies aren't the ones men tell you—they're the ones you tell yourself.
A raw, honest story about self-worth, toxic patterns, and learning that you have to choose yourself before anyone else can truly choose you.
Perfect for listeners who loved "Waiting to Exhale" and "The Color Purple"
