<span style="color:#333333;font-family:Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:20px;">Today's Truth continues the story of how a close group of friends deal with the pain that only the deception of a loved one can inflict. The death of David, Jr. has rendered Jada unable to move on with her life. She wonders if going on with her life is disrespectful to the memory of her husband... until she finds out that her marriage may not have been as sacred as she thought. Benjamin, now home from a seven year jail sentence, wants to know if there is any chance that he and newly married Toni still have a love connection. Vince is forced to deal with the betrayal of his wife Gina while learning that he will experience an unexpected change more drastic than he ever imagined. David Sr. is used to protecting his flesh and blood at all costs, but what happens when he can no longer control the outpour of evidence proving his prior heinous actions?</span><br /><br /><span style="color:#333333;font-family:Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:20px;">This was the second novel penned by Terri D. I was astounded as I read how deeply the characters' relationships were tied together. As the story unfolded, the plot got more interesting with multiple twists. I love how there is a main storyline, yet each character has their own subplot which made the book even more of an intense read. I was especially able to feel Jada's emotions when she finally lets her feelings known to all. This title makes you question what you would and wouldn't do to protect a dear friend regardless of the looming repercussions. The end left me hanging to the point that I contacted the author to request a third installment! There were a few phrases here and there that I thought were repetitious and issues with typesetting. In spite of these small items, I am definitely looking forward to future titles from Terri D. I can't wait to find out what happens next with these friends!</span><br /><br /><span style="color:#333333;font-family:Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:20px;">4.5 stars</span><div><span style="color:#333333;font-family:Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:20px;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="color:#333333;font-family:Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:20px;">Today's Truth is the sophomore effort from award winning author Terri D.
