What they hadn't found was lasting marriages, fulfilling relationships, and soul healing. And learning to manage their emotions to do so was proving to be harder than gaining success. Silver didn't know what depression was until the day she couldn't get out of bed. Her life had pretty much been what she had envisioned until the day her husband announced that he was leaving her for another. It was all so confusing and conflicting. Would she ever be able to get past the anger, jealously, and fear to be whole again? Selena was no doubt a dime piece. She was beautiful. She had built a whole brand off her looks alone. Women admired her, and men wanted her, except the one man she wanted more than her good senses would allow. When would she learn where to draw the line when it came to pleasing another? Jasmine had pretty much lived her life by the good book. She went to college, married, built a home, and then had a child. Her life was perfect, and she had no problem with letting others know. What she didn't do was prepare herself for a daughter who would taint that perfect image. Just how was she supposed to get past her pride so she could help her child who needed her more than ever? Eva didn't like weakness, foolishness, or wastefulness. She knew her strengths, and being vulnerable wasn't one of them. She was tough, but she had a heart that she wanted to share with another. Ignoring her fears, she takes a chance at love, only to feel the familiar sting of rejection again. Did her success mean a life of loneliness? Journey with these four best friends as they shift through their emotions to gain the true knowledge of success.
