A solid marriage, a thriving business, and the esteem of their close-knit Alabama community - Joyce and Odell Watson have every reason to count their blessings. Their marriage has given well-off Joyce a chance at the family she's always wanted - and granted Odell a once-in-a-lifetime shot to escape grinding poverty. But all that respectability and status comes at a cost. Just once, Joyce and Odell want to break loose and taste life's wild side, without consequences.

Growing up poor in Texas, Vera Lomax used every gold-digging trick in the book to land a rich husband. Now living in the lap of luxury in San Francisco, her only job is to fawn over her much-older husband, so it's been easy for her to balance a life of shopping and affairs with younger men with a major secret: the 16-year bribery of one of her husband's mistresses to keep her pregnancy under wraps. Vera figures that a little hush money every month will ensure her husband's fortune is hers alone....

In 1958 Georgia, the shade of a 13-year-old black girl's skin can make the difference in her fate. Tangy Mae is the smartest of her mother's 10 children, but she is also the darkest complected. The Quinns - all different skin shades, all with unknown fathers - live with their charismatic, beautiful, and tyrannical mother, Rozelle, in poverty on the fringes of a Georgia town where Jim Crow rules. Rozelle's children live in fear of her mood swings and her violence, but they are devoted to her. Rozelle pulls her children out of school when they are 12 years old so that they can help support her by going to work.

Comprising two distinct short novels - Monroe's Nightmare in Paradise and Bad Luck Shadow from critically acclaimed Victor McGlothin - Borrow Trouble is a hot double-feature that perfectly showcases each author's unique style.

Crazy but good...
Although Mama Ruby was the HOTTEST mess ever, this book really kept my interest. I literally laughed out loud multiple times at this group of characters. The slang and accents that were used- while exaggerated at times, is representative of the deep South so it didn't bother me too much. I do wish that the author spent more time on the ending because I feel like after receiving so many details throughout the story for the story to end like it did felt rushed and not as satisfying as I thought it would have. Overall, I liked everything but the ending.

Secrets and No secrets
This was another great story. I get caught up in the ridiculousness of the storyline. This one in particular was so silly that is was good. It would be an interesting book club read.

Excellent read
Mama Ruby was a complicated character. I enjoyed the authors attention to detail. Each scene was as though you could picture it. Well worth the read. Hilarious and serious.
