He’s a good man Savannah. No but really he’s a good man. Sasha encouraged her husband to complete a 30 day fling with other people inside their house. I know what you’re thinking…. Oh like a foursome. No like an open marriage. Sasha thinks this limbo rendition will help her marriage. 😳 this arrangement can either push her husband away or bring them closer.

Lina daughter is on a quest to figure out who her birth parents are and also dance ballet.
