UnderCover by Laurinda D. Brown

In Fire & Brimstone, Laurinda D. Brown began the turbulent love story of Chris Desmereaux and Gayle Evans, two women and mothers struggling to find comfort in each other and in themselves while teetering on the verge of self-destruction. UnderCover expands the story, introducing Nathaniel, the monogamous lover of Patrick, a high roller at the Memphis nightclub where Nathaniel performs as a female diva, until Patrick breaks his heart. Devastated, Nathaniel leaves his former life behind and reinvents himself as a committed family man: husband to his wife, father to his three children, and brother-in-law to Chris. Patrick remains a distant memory until financial trouble forces Nathaniel back to his old fast-money life, leading to exposure and a downward spiral as he struggles with his sexual identity and must face the truth about himself.
