Sexy and relatable, insightful and inspiring, Love and Happiness shows us both sides of Chris and Karen's story. Author Ben Burgess Jr. reminds us that sometimes to have it all, you must first lose it all.

Karen has it all: a handsome husband, beautiful twin daughters, a lovely home, and a great job. She also has a secret: she's cheating on her husband with not one man, but two. On the outside, her life seems perfect, but Karen feels neglected, bored, and unappreciated. Yearning for affection and excitement, she falls into the arms of first Raheem, and then Tyrell. Out of fear of losing her husband, Karen ends the affairs, but things don't turn out how she planned. When Karen's dirty secrets are revealed, she must fight to keep her family together.
Chris is doing all he can to hold his marriage together. He loves Karen, but she's been growing more distant every day. When she starts coming home later and later, he suspects she is being unfaithful. When Chris accidentally takes her cell phone, what he finds changes their lives forever.
Tragedy strikes, and Karen must decide if she should sacrifice her happiness for her husband's love, and Chris wonders if he should stay with Karen, because he still loves her despite her infidelity. If they do stay together, will they ever find love and happiness again?
