Synopsis

Nationally best-selling author Mary Monroe penned the widely acclaimed novels God Don't Like Ugly (F0063) and God Still Don't Like Ugly (F0140). Chicago Sun-Times calls her "a remarkable talent." Red Light Wives is a sassy and scandalous novel of six women who engage in the world's oldest profession. They have something else in common too, their "manager," Clyde Brooks-a charismatic but hard man who fills many roles in each woman's life. But soon, an act of rebellion may change their relationship forever.
