Trish Taylor’s white ancestry never got in the way of her
love for her black ex-husband, or their mixed race son,
Will. But when Trish’s marriage ends, she returns to her
family’s Denver, Colorado home to find a sense of identity
and connect to her past.
What she finds there shocks
her to the very core: her mother and newborn sister were not
killed in a car crash as she was told. In fact, her baby
sister, Billie Cousins, is now a grown woman; her
grandparents had put her up for adoption, unwilling to raise
the child of a black man. Billie, who had no idea she was
adopted, wants nothing to do with Trish until a tragedy in
Billie’s own family forces her to lean on her surprisingly
supportive and sympathetic sister. Together they unravel
age-old layers of secrets and resentments and navigate a
path toward love, healing, and true reconciliation.
