In this powerful collection, three acclaimed writers put
their talents together to tell the unforgettable story of
three sisters separated as infants—and how their paths
finally cross in adulthood.
Leticia, Jamilla, and Clarissa Holmes each know that
they’re one in a set of triplets—but that’s about all they
know. Now they’re adults, thirty-three-year old women who
are as different as can be. But they have one thing in
common: they have never given up on the idea of one day
finding each other…
In “More Than This,” by Donna Hill, we meet Leticia,
whose time in group homes sharpened her street smarts and
taught her to use her good looks to her advantage. Now
she’s on top of the world, ensconced in a lush apartment in
the heart of New Orleans. Leticia knows what men want—she
runs the most elite call girl operation in the Parrish. But
when she learns that the new sheriff in town is planning a
raid, she decides to close up shop, have some adventures,
and find her family. She soon discovers that one of her
sisters is a jazz singer slated to appear at Lincoln
Center. Leticia buys a ticket—and gets much more than she
bargained for…
Parry “EbonySatin” Brown’s [title tk] follows
Jamilla, adopted by an upstanding family who loved her like
their own. But despite a life of privilege, Jamilla was
always haunted by a sense of foreboding. As a way to escape
her demons, she turned to writing. Now she’s landed a six-
figure book deal. But Jamilla’s joy is clouded by a series
of disturbing dreams triggered by a woman she saw on
television—a jazz singer with her face…
In Gwynne Forster’s “The Journey,” Clarissa Holmes
Medford has finally decided to kick out her cheating
husband—and pick up her guitar. Maybe she can sing her way
out of the unhappiness and poverty that have plagued most
of her life. When she records a well-received demo, it’s
just the beginning of a fascinating journey that will take
her far from home, and expose her to a captivating new
world—and an audience that may include the family her heart
has always longed for…
