Black Wives of Madison Mississippi: My Husband's Boss Wants a Black Man
SHONDA
When my husband told me he wanted to sleep with the rich white woman holding his career in her perfectly manicured hands, I should've thrown him out.
Instead, I drove our son to school.
Met my girls for brunch.
And started plotting.
Because if Tommy wanted to turn our marriage into a business transaction, I was going to make sure everybody got audited.
Jessica has everything.
The money.
The power.
The fancy degrees.
The corner office overlooking half of Atlanta.
And a very public reputation for getting whatever she wants.
Lately?
What she wants is my husband.
The problem is that Jessica thinks she's stealing somebody else's man.
What she's actually doing is declaring war on the wrong Black woman.
And by the time she's done learning that lesson, the whole internet might be watching.
TOMMY
The deal was supposed to be simple.
Get the signature.
Land the partnership.
Secure my family's future.
Then Jessica smiled at me.
Now I've got a wealthy white CEO making offers that don't belong in a boardroom.
A wife who's one bad day away from becoming a supervillain.
And enough secrets floating around to destroy every relationship I've ever had.
Jessica says she wants honesty.
Shonda wants revenge.
The internet wants drama.
And somehow I'm trapped in the middle of all three.
The worst part?
I thought I could control this.
I thought I could keep business separate from pleasure.
I thought I could have my career, my marriage, and my dignity.
Turns out I might be lucky to keep one.
A rich white CEO.
A married Black executive.
A wife who refuses to play the victim.
This is a messy, scandal-filled Southern drama packed with ambition, jealousy, social-media revenge, public humiliation, marriage-on-the-edge tension, corporate power plays, and the kind of bad decisions that feel way too good in the moment.
Because some women chase success.
Some women chase married men.
And some women are about to learn exactly what happens when they chase both.
