Product Description
RM Johnson, the Essence bestselling author of Dating Games and The Harris Family, delivers an absorbing and provocative new novel about the lowdown schemes and broken dreams that follow a fractured marriage.
Successful business entrepreneur Nate Kenny is thrilled to marry the beautiful and intelligent Monica, chiefly because it means he can at last fulfill his lifelong dream of having a family. While he isn’t happy about it, he agrees with Monica to wait three years before trying for pregnancy. Once those three years are up and the couple discovers that she is unable to bear children, any love he once felt for Monica is gone, and Nate wants out of the marriage. But he’s worried about losing half of his sixty-million-dollar fortune in a divorce settlement. Desperate for an out, he searches for a way to exploit the infidelity clause in the couple’s prenuptial agreement.
Enter Lewis Waters. With his baby’s mother addicted to drugs, Lewis is already seriously down on his luck when he accidentally smashes his car into Nate’s Bentley. Without auto insurance or any way to pay for the repairs, Lewis is at the end of his financial rope. But the scheming Nate sees another way for the attractive young man to repay his debt: as sexual bait for Monica. And so Nate sets up Lewis with all of the accessories he believes Lewis will need to earn Monica’s love, or at the very least, her lust: a big house, a fancy car, expensive clothes, and a full bank account. But as is often the case when it comes to matters of the heart, things don’t unfold according to plan. When Monica falls hard for Lewis, Nate panics — was protecting his fortune more important than trying to save his marriage? As he finds himself overwhelmed by second thoughts, Nate is willing to do anything to get Monica back.
An inspired fusion of realism and romance, The Million Dollar Divorce is an unpredictable caper of lust, betrayal, and family ties.

Wow…i just finished this book and I am glad that I finally did. It tooke alomst 3 weeks to do it and ill be happy to just to pack it away. I really dont know what more to say about that story was just not that good to me, The only person I had any amount of respect for was Lewis,Nate was a monster and I just found Monica to be pathetic. I will still read his other books though because The Harris men and Harris Family were excellent reads.

There’s obviously another “The Million Dollar Divorce” floating around out there, because all the other reviews seem to be raves. Well, the book I read was a mess. No, scratch that. It was a hot mess. It read like something written by a 9th grader.
I want my $12 back.

Sorry, but I could not connect with the voice. The title and cover piqued my interest, so I bought the book, but the writing is sooooo simplistic and amateurish. Where were the metaphors?
I expected to hear the voice of an established 40 -plus seasoned man/female, but instead I felt Iike I was reading a young adult book.
2 stars one for the title and one for the cover.

Just okay, it wasn’t great but it wasn’t bad. It’s a real easy read and holds your attention but there was nothing spectacular about it. Very forgettable characters (I had to read the synopsis to remind myself what the book was about) and at times predictable. If you see it on sale pick it up.
