Child psychologist Chocolate Campbell learned self-hate
early in life. At six-years-old she knew that her sea green
eyes and silky golden hair, set her apart from her sisters—
her beautiful black sisters in the eyes of the only father
she knew. The product of an adulterous affair, as an adult
Chocolate finds herself in turmoil of whether to forgive
the man who rejected her and her biracial features while
accepting his legitimate daughters. While reminiscing on a
past of longing for the same love from her father that her
sisters received, Chocolate is also reminded of how his
rejection, anger, and drunkenness resulted in the death of
two of her siblings. Undercover detective Danni Campbell doesn't want to know
love. She has seen too much hate to consider giving herself—
her heart over to a man the way she witnessed her father
give his to her mother only to end up with more pain and
regret than anyone she knew. She dates men that are already
taken and lets no one close enough to her heart to break
it. When she meets Muhummad, who is a far cry from
conventional ideas of "handsome," her footing becomes shaky
and she finds herself seeking her true identity in him. She
battles with sticking to her vow to never love or letting
go and falling head first into the unknown. From a prison cell in East Texas, James Ray Campbell serves
time for the murder of his daughters. Dying from cancer and
seeking absolution from Chocolate, he attempts to reappear
in her life through letters and messages from Danni. As the sisters face their pasts, embrace the presence, and
look forward to their futures; a sibling bond is built,
held onto and threatened in a major way. In order to heal
completely, Chocolate has to reevaluate the past and
determine whether it is too late for her to forgive her
father and give him a chance to make good on promises he
never made, let alone, tried to keep.
