Inspirational Romance | Multicultural African-American
Angela has reunited with Reese after a recent separation
and is struggling with the adjustments necessary to
restore the marriage. Letting the dust settle isn't easy,
but she's taking the right step given her faith. Choosing
to ignore the drama swirling around her immediate
household, she also sits in a place of denial regarding
the rest of the Reynolds family, whom she holds in high
regard. That is until shocking rumors involving her father
surface, and her world comes crashing down. The unity
blanket and bliss once covering the family are in jeopardy
and the ugliness is threatening to erupt. Gossip and
accusations of guilt spiral out of control when an issue
of paternity arises. Perhaps the weight of pretending
could be bearable, but the new rumors about Sylvia
crossing the line drives a wedge in their already not-so-
sisterly bond, stretching Angela's faith to the breaking
point. Sylvia is nursing her own wounds and refuses to suffer in
silence any longer. The day of reckoning has arrived and
Sylvia is wielding the ax of judgment. In the past she has
masked her hurt and anger, determined to go along with the
farce. Convinced that Angela is blind to the truth, Sylvia
is bent on giving her sister a view of the real world,
even if it requires extreme measures. She plans to expose
a slew of devastating truths at the upcoming family event
and punish those responsible for her torment. Sylvia is
determined to set the record straight, regardless of the
lives that are sure to be impacted, including her own. Relationships appear permanently destroyed, but Aunt Ida
Mae, the voice of reason rooted in faith and trust in God,
facilitates reconciliation in a family that seems
unfixable. Let Sleeping Dogs Lie tugs at the heart of
human frailty and family dysfunction, begging the
question, Can faith in God's promises and a pinch of
unconditional love enable the unforgivable to be forgiven
and the painful sting forgotten?
