Danica is back! Haunted by her treacherous past Danica Sherman decides to change the scenery in her life and searches for a path to redemption. The only problem is the more she runs from her past, the faster it accelerates towards her future. As Danica desperately tries to figure out what she is going to do about the mess she has made of her life, skeletons start tumbling out of her closet. Patrice's luck goes from bad to worse when she is forced to move back home with her parents following the aftermath of her encounter with Danica the year prior. Everyday she becomes more bitter as revelations wreck havoc and turn her life upside down. With only one person in her mind to blame, she takes revenge to an all time high. Danica and Patrice's paths cross once again and the tables get turned upside down! In a new city, with new insecurities and new threats...what will happen when they have to lean on the person they least expect to help them survive? In this jaw dropping sequel to On The Flip Side, questions will be answered as the drama continues!

A Different Kind of Baby Momma Drama...   Tavares has one thing on his mind and that is being a good father to his kids. This proves to become a difficult act when he faces obstacles from the mother of his children who abandoned their twins at the hospital after birth. Her only concern is making a profit off of the children she birthed by making Tavares pay child support in two different states, even though he has custody of the kids. When her child support payments are reduced, she threatens to take back the kids causing all hell to break loose.   Danica is leading a double life. She owns a successful psychiatric practice and has her patients lives all figured out. She suffers from a God complex that has her believing that she is better than everyone else. Danica enjoys her double life of making people pay for their indiscretions in the worst way.   When Danica and Tavares's worlds clash, things get shaken up. Danica feels it is her duty to intervene in Tavares's personal problems without his willful consent. Will Tavares be freed from the financial and emotional burden that his children's mother inflicts on him? Will Danica have her way regardless of the consequences? On The Flip Side is a wild ride that you do not want to miss out on as roles get reversed and lives are forever changed.  Read an excerpt under the Sneak Peek section!

 The Damion L. West Foundation

On July 9th, 2009 a terrible tragedy took the life of a wonderful father, incredible son and dedicated security guard. Damion L. West was found brutally murdered in the Ivy Walk Apartment Complex. He was unarmed, on duty and severly beaten by his assailants. Unfortunately his murderers have not been brought to justice and as his family and friends we need your help!

 

Our desire with the Damion L. West Foundation is to raise money to increase the reward for the arrest of those responsible. We don't plan on stopping there! We also want to start a scholarship fund his son, brother and then hopefully we will be able to further honor his memory by helping other security guards children go to college. In this newsletter we will share with you several ways that you can help. We also ask that you forward this email to a friend so that they can have the oppurtunity to help as well. On behalf of the family and friends of Damion L. West we thank you in advance. We are certain that your help will make a difference in bringing justice and peace to his family

 

A Message from Essence Magazine Best Selling Author Nikkea Smithers
 

The Damion L. West Foundation is very dear to my heart. Not only was Damion one of my husbands best friends but he was in my wedding. I remember him being full of life and a love of debating. He would always be ready to spark up a conversation to show his dazzling intellect.When I learned of his traggic passing I was disheartened that this much hatred could exist in this world. To say it touched home is an understatement. Everyday I watch my husband as he deals with the greif of not being able to talk to Damion. When I talk to his mother Trisha I feel the pain that she has to live with from not being able to hug her first born.

 

I sincerely want to help make an impact in finding Damion's murderers as well as making his legacy last on going. It is for that reason that I have decided to donate $1 from every copy of On The Flip Side that is purchased to the Damion L. West Foundation. 

 

You may be far away from Richmond but everyone can donate to the cause or buy a book to help in this cause.

 

With Love,

Nikkea Smithers
