The Black Book

Anthony is an intelligent man that was raised in a loving family that never told him what love meant. Introduced to sex at a young age and hearing and seeing the same from his family members, he eventually thought and believed that’s what loves was—sex. Pleasure from women and getting what he came for from them was what he only knew. And saying “I love you” just to have sex with a woman was something that he did without meaning or feeling; it was just life. Spinning out of control and dating—or so-called dating—as many women as he could just to get his groove on, he started to wonder if what he was doing was right. Confused and feeling something was missing, he started to search for the right one that would help him fi nd and know what true love is. He knew that in the long run, he would have to pay for his mistreatment of women’s hearts yet did not understand that it would affect him also. He knew the pleasures of a woman’s body and never knew the pleasures of a woman’s heart—at least he thought he didn’t know. Follow Anthony as he fl oats through denial and runs from love that he desperately wanted to have, give, and know.
