In MY MOTHER’S CHILD by Dwan Abrams, Lyric Stokes wants nothing more than to produce a son for her husband, Michael. They have a daughter together, but Lyric wants Michael to have a son to carry on the family name. On the outside they appear to have it all. Michael is a doctor; they have the fancy home and luxury vehicles. But Lyric has been struggling to get pregnant again. Lyric starts to wonder what her purpose really is. Since Lyric is a stay-at-home mother, Michael suggests she start her own business to occupy some of her time. Innocently, Lyric takes the business card of a man she meets at a restaurant. Nigel Fredricks has been known to be a stalker. He stalked Dr. Skyler Little in the Abrams previous novel DIVORCING THE DEVIL. Nigel has now taken a liking to Lyric. She finally discovers she is pregnant, but only after a tragic event. Nigel believes they are meant to be together and will stop at nothing until he has her. How will the Stokes family handle the trials the face?
Abrams weaves a tale of suspense as well as love. I admired the way that Michael loved Lyric unconditionally. I loved the message of family. I thought the author did a great job with the end of the story. This is a sequel to DIVORCING THE DEVIL, but it stands on its own. I recommend this book for a quick read.
