- Summary
- The Time is now. The place is Washington, D.C. Ph.D. candidate Lisa Allen is a success in everything she does - except finding a good man to marry. Thirtysomething and newly out of a long-term relationship, she meets charismatic Walter Henderson at her friend Sundi's wedding. He seems perfect - except for the scandalous baggage he carries from his recent divorce. To her complete surprise, Lisa catches the bouquet but loses her heart.
- New bride Sundiata Karif changed her name ten years ago when she got involved in the Pan-Africanist movement. Financially secure and spiritually independent, she is not ready for the kind of life her Nigerian husband, Chris, expects. His cultural traditions concerning the role of a wife will challenge Sundi's beliefs and values as their emotions are linked on a collision course.
- Advertising executive Danielle, Sundi's maid of honor and Lisa's big sister, is married to a wonderful guy. Roger is successful, passionate, and supportive of his beautiful wife and her career. Unfortunately, after years together, Dannie loves Roger, but she isn't in love with him. Her antidote to her failing marriage is her new executive assistant, Derrick - young, exciting, and very ambitious.
- Now three girlfriends need their friendship more than ever as they discover that finding Mr. Right may not be enough to live happily ever after, even though love, when it's right, can be so good. In a novel that is frank, compassionate, and full of life, Venise Berry's characters spring from the page with unforgettable realism.
