Produktbeschreibung
This novel caught the attention of the Oprah Show. It's about Alexandria, who allows riches and material possessions to influence her decisions in finding love. She believes lies although evidences of truths are right in front of her face. It takes her going through a very traumatic harassing experience with her boss to realize a very successful, but also very humble, man was waiting for her to see him for the love of her life. A couple of serious sub-themes in this novel are bullying someone because of their light complexion, and passing as White while longing to be accepted by Blacks. There's a dramatic runaway slave story woven throughout the main story. How the characters of both stories are related is revealed at the end of the book. The parallels of harassment between the two eras of over 150 years apart are astonishing and based on self-loathing!
