<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>As Sky takes charge of her life, she must choose between her new relationship and her first love.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>As a young African American woman from Durham, North Carolina, Sky Valentine is tired of being boxed in by small minds and Southern expectations. To escape the restraints of her Southern upbringing, Sky flees to Rhode Island to attend college. Once there, Sky doesn't just work on her degree, she also works on shedding many of the things that peg her as a Southerner. <p/> Sky also falls head over heels with the sexy and vibrant Zenobia, solidifying what she had felt in her heart all along--that she loves women. But their affair is brief and interrupted by Zenobia's sudden departure from school. <p/> With college completed, Sky returns home to find that her domineering mother has promised her hand in marriage to a rich and arrogant man. But it's 1986, and Sky is determined to live her own life. So she gathers her courage and flees to New York City, where she lands a teaching job and an apartment. <p/> In time Sky meets Grace Webster and it's love at first sight. But then Zenobia comes back into Sky's life and Sky is faced with an impossible choice--finish what she started with Zenobia years ago, or fight for the relationship she is building with Grace. What will she choose?<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>It was good to read a story with people of color. It was also good yet heart breaking to read about the challenges of coming out to family and friends. What was most interesting to me was reading about Sky and how she dealt with the challenges she faced. It was not a linear road and the reader may or maynot agree with the decisions she made and how she made them but that contributed to making the read interesting. There is no way I would have done that like that...really? The book cover is gorgeous!--<strong>NetGalley</strong>-<i>Kennedy O.</i><br>
