Atlanta, Georgia, 1950–Michael can’t believe his eyes as he watches the man he loves marry a woman from the back row of Mount Zion Baptist Church. When the beautiful couple is pronounced man and wife, he leaves his home in Georgia for the chance of a better life in New York City.
Alexander is just trying to exist in Queens, New York. Although his family is aware of his unnatural attraction to men, they adore him. The price of hiding his true identity from the rest of the world leads to a deep and painful loneliness for Alex, even in the bosom of a loving family.
When Michael’s life collides with Alexander’s world, both men are afraid to trust. Sweet Honesty is an African American M/M romance that provides a glimpse of black love from a different lens and time.

Reading M/M romance isn’t my norm, but one thing I’ve learned as a fan of Joan Vassar, her writing is thoughtful, considerate and well-researched, no matter the subject matter. Her work always leaves you with a better knowledge and sense of understanding than you had when you started. And dare I say, a better person! And Sweet Honesty… be still my heart! Oh this book is so amazing. Top Tier! Understanding the depths and complexities of self-discovery, acceptance, companionship, and family coupled with navigating the legalities and preconceived notions through the lens of Alex and Michael’s love was a beautiful, eye-opening experience. This book humanized these characters in a such a way that I feel allows this community to truly feel seen.
And can I say how Sean Crisden DELIVERED? Perfect narration! I said now how does Joan have me wanting to watch pxxn hub (for research lol) & the History channel in the same book! lol I’m lowkey jealous of Mikey because Alex is absolutely SWOONY!!! And if you’re a true fan, you know she gave us a spoiler glimpse into another series, and I so love that we got to peek inside their future. So many laughs, so many nuggets, and so much love!
This book was EVERYTHING! She absolutely nailed this.

The story skillfully transitions the narrative from a same-sex romance to a broader awareness of personal growth and overcoming obstacles. As I read, the story became less about two males and more about the love between two individuals that encourages readers to embrace love in all its forms and challenges societal perceptions about acceptance.
The emotional depth, raw openness, passionate sensuality, and eroticism shows honest and beautiful toe curling sex scenes, belonging, devotion and the innocence of exploring life through new experiences is captivating, drawing readers into their world.
Joan Vassar's storytelling exceeds expectations, creating a rare and cherished bond between Michael and Alexander that resonates deeply. If you're looking for a book that not only entertains but also inspires and challenges you to think differently about love and relationships, "Sweet Honesty" is a must-read. Let it sweep you off your feet. It's a love-infused journey that will leave you wishing for a world as accepting and beautiful as the one depicted in the book. Trust me, you won't be able to put it down!
The narration:
Sean Crisden, Sir, your flowers have arrived 🌸💐🌺🌷🌼. Your performance is stellar, you have effortlessly spoken emotion and passion into these character and this story. Bravo!
Trei Taylor, Ma’am, I have been a fan and although your parts were small, this performance you gave was big. Your tone and passion put into the women portrayed the love, protection and emotion beautifully. I hope you will be the female voice for “Bitter Sweet” so your star can shine brighter.
