An Ordinary Woman: A Novel

From the bestselling author, “a powerful novel of two friends and the forces that rip them apart . . . alternately tough and tender.” —John A. Williams, American Book Award-winning author

Asha and Lisa have been best friends since grade school and they have always shared everything. A beautiful and accomplished photographer, Asha never seems to lack excitement or a man to share it with. Yet, for a woman who appears to have it all there is always “that something” she needs to make her feel whole . . . worthy.

Lisa, “the good girl,” has always dreamed of the perfect marriage to the perfect husband. Now she has both with Ross Davis and she has their future planned to the last, perfect detail.

Ross didn’t want to believe that he and Lisa had married too soon. He didn’t want to believe that each day the man he thought himself to be was being stripped away by the woman he loved—leaving him feeling like a kept man instead of the man of the house.

And then—betrayal. No one knows how it happened, how they could have done this to each other. But now, they each want to tell their side of the story.

As Asha, Lisa and Ross travel down the road to discovery, you will root for them, hurt for them, hate them and love them. But you will never forget them.

“Donna grabs you, right out of the box, with a tale that’s both provocative and audacious . . . an engaging, fast-paced read.” —Lolita Files, national bestselling author of Child of God

“An extraordinary observation of love, betrayal and hope.” —Margaret Johnson-Hodge, national bestselling author of Butterscotch Blues
