Carmen Fuller is getting fed up with the baby mama drama, her medaling in-laws and her guilt-driven husband. Balancing her personal life and her job as a caseworker at the county’s Friend of the Court system is challenging. Stress levels run high for this thirty-two year old mother of two. Carmen keeps her family on a need-to-know status leaving her girlfriends- Tonya and Simone, who are dealing with their own family drama - as her only support. As she struggles with the feelings she experiences as a stepmother to nine-year old Junior, she discovers that she is not alone. Her situation intensifies when she suspects her husband, Tyrell, of unfaithfulness. Although she felt the separation from her husband far before her suspicions of infidelity, Carmen’s dream family life is at-risk of crumbling apart. But she refuses to hand her husband and family over on a silver platter. Meanwhile, her home and work life overlap when she receives “hate mail” from someone who obviously wants her husband. She keeps the letters a secret from Tyrell, but uses other tactics to feel him out. As she figures things out, she makes some astonishing discoveries about her stepson that have been happening all along. Tyrell shares with a marriage counselor that his feelings towards his wife changed when he noticed that she didn’t like his son anymore. Carmen is offended and shocked by his bogus accusations. After all of the drama she puts up with, this was the sorry excuse her husband had for treating her the way he did. While eluding their family members and Tyrell’s baby mama, the couple struggles with moving forward. As Carmen works on herself, she decides to choose her battles and accept things for what they are. She digs deep for some real soul searching to improve her roles as a wife, a mother, and a stepmother.

As the eldest daughter, Debbie Fellows had her own room as a child. Instead of feeling privileged, she felt isolated and ignored. She felt everything she did and said was always wrong. She grew up feeling confused and alone. Debbie had her first drink at age twelve. In trying to escape her pain, she dug herself into a deep, dark, isolating hole. As her alcohol and drug abuse worsened, she lived with blackouts. On her own as a teenager, she drifted from one bleak living situation to another. Marriage and children lead only to abuse, anxiety attacks, and welfare. Despite her efforts, Debbie’s struggles to pull her life together led her down one harrowing path after another. Each effort led to another disappointment. Remarkably, Debbie did not give up. This memoir is a self-reflection by a woman who survived her demons, to a long-awaited and almost forgotten one-of-a-kind rose of hope. Through tenacity and her love for her children, Debbie finds help in the most unlikely places. Her message of hope is clear: If Debbie can make it through what she has gone through anybody can. The other side is better than you could ever imagine.
