Most of all, she relished the company of her husband, who never ceased to be a source of passion and delight. Then everything changed. More and more frightened women were showing up in West End, seeking Blue's protection from lovers who had suddenly become violent. When the worst offenders begin to disappear without a trace, the signsall of them grimseem to point toward Blue and his longtime associate, Joseph General Richardson. Now that Regina is pregnant, her fear for Blue's safety has become an obsession that threatens the very heart of their relationship.

Baby Brother's Blues is full of wit and warmth, illumination the core of every woman's hopes and dreams.
