Summary

Like their mother, Della, and their grandmother before her, sisters Celeste English and Ronnie Frazier share a bloodline and proud African-American heritage-but little else. Struggling actress Ronnie has come home to Buffalo for her father's funeral to find a family fraying at the seams and an unexpected windfall to be shared with her sister. In Ronnie's opinion, Celeste already has it all as a doctor's wife. But when they arrive at their newly inherited North Carolina family homestead, the startling truth about Celeste's perfect life, Ronnie's glamorous life, and Della's murky past begins to emerge. Now, faced with age-old secrets and an uncertain future, the sisters unexpectedly find themselves on common ground. With deft description and dialogue that rings hauntingly true, this is a vivid portrait of four female gen-erations of an African-American family.

Author Biography

Virigina DeBerry and Donna Grant are the bestselling, award-winning authors of Tryin' To Sleep In The Bed You Made, the novel which won the Merit Award for fiction from the Black Caucus of the American Library Association, the Book of the Year Award from Blackboard, and the New Author of the Year Award from the Go On Girl Book Club. Virginia and Donna first met while working as models, and what should have been a rivalry ended up being a decades-long friendship. Virginia lives in New Jersey, and Donna lives in Brooklyn with her husband.
