Diary of a Mad First Lady 2
Lisa Hodges is the quiet reserved First Lady of the fast
growing Pilgrim Baptist Church. Those around her do not know that her quietness
is a direct reflection of her of her discontent life. Charles, her husband, has
his focus on climbing the ministerial ladder and the many women standing in
line to fulfill his every need and desire--that he fails to acknowledge his
wife’s growing frustration. Lisa, the mother of three, has gotten lost in the
lives of her children and the role of being First Lady--and has long ago giving
up obtaining any happiness of success of her own. The very sexy and talented Alex Mitchell
arrives at her church, causing Lisa to feel her only happiness came in a brown eyed,
caramel-skinned, muscled, and six foot frame. The two soon begin a sexy
whirlwind affair that results in a forbidden shared love and unwanted
pregnancy. On the other hand, with secrets of his own, Alex threatens to expose
them all, one secret at time. Will Lisa be able to deny her love for Alex and
fix the mess she's gotten herself into? Or will her action bring down her
husband, the church, and her family?

changed and her marriage of
15 years came to an end. This took DiShan from living a life
