Overview

The beloved #1 Essence bestselling authors of Tryin' to Sleep in the Bed You Made now deliver a novel in which you'll meet their most unforgettable characters yet.
When Carmen, Jewell, and Regina cross paths in the 1980s as Columbia freshmen, they planned to keep on walking. Jewell, who is a Hollywood child star looking for her role in life; Regina, who's ready to ditch her privileged upbringing; and Carmen, who fought her way out of the inner city, have little in common. But each has what the other needs, and through the years of betrayal, illness, and secrets, they unite in a circle of sisterhood that is strained but never broken'not even by death.

  • Book Rating: 4/5

Great "chick" book - It has everything in it that makes us realize that even though we may not be able to choose our families we can choose friends that become family. It has everything friendship, love, mystery, hope, death, and even stupidity. I can see these things happening to a group of ordinary people.
