From the outside looking in, Sasha Ellis, would appear as the perfectly poised daughter of Judge Ezra Ellis. She walks with grace, she speaks with confidence, and she could possibly attract any man she wants. She has spent her life ensconced in the elite circle of the best of the best of black Atlanta high society. She was a debutante, she attended charm school, she made straight A's while attending the best schools money could afford, but those things are not the things she want to define her. Sasha is a free spirit who doesn't want to be defined by the people in her social circle or her last name. She wants to live her own life and do the things that make her happy, but she realizes that her life is not her own. Being the oldest daughter of a judge, she is required to be the one to set the example as the responsible, obedient one who marries the man her parents have chosen and lives the life they have laid out for her. This is exactly where her life is headed until she meets music producer, Quinton Ramsey, during her very first visit to a club with her best friend. Sasha and Quinton's instant attraction to one another becomes a problem in Sasha's flawlessly scripted life. She starts to question her decision to blindly follow the orders of her parents and begins to wonder if there is something else behind their behavior throughout the years. They've obsessed over her behavior, chosen her friends, and basically convinced her that she was doomed to become a drug addict or whore if she didn't follow their conservative upbringing. They even decided that she would marry the son of another Judge. As Sasha and Quinton get closer, her life with her fianc , Daryn Bryant, becomes more complicated. A string of lies and secrets that her family and Daryn's family have withheld begin to surface because of Sasha's rebellious actions and Daryn's ambitious nature.

A loyal friend. A daughter whose passing left a hole in her mother's heart that can never be filled. As you accompany Laura on her short journey through life, you will laugh and you will cry. You will feel anger and you will feel admiration. You know the ending before you begin. What you don't know is "Why?"
Kein Mann, keine Arbeit, kein Geld. Charlotte befindet sich mit Ende drei ig auf dem Tiefpunkt ihres Lebens. Auch ihr Konzept, von ihrer Kunst leben zu k nnen und nur ab und zu einen Brotjob annehmen zu m ssen, scheint vollkommen in den Hintergrund ger ckt zu sein. Ihr einziger Lichtblick ist ein allw chentlich stattfindender Aquarellkurs, den sie leitet. Dort kommen nicht nur Stillleben, sondern auch die Schicksale und das Liebesleben der Malerinnen auf den Tisch. Irgendwann sp ren die Aquarellfrauen, wie ihre Kursleiterin unter starken Stimmungsschwankungen leidet und sich ihnen immer mehr verschlie t. War es Not oder Neugierde, was Charlotte auf eine Kontaktanzeige antworten lie , ber die sie bei der Stellensuche jede Woche aufs Neue stolpert? Wer ist dieser "einsame Karpatenwolf", der sich selbst als "leicht angeschossen" beschreibt? Schon bald erlebt Charlotte Unaussprechliches. Oder h tte sie den Aquarellfrauen erz hlen sollen, dass sie beim ersten Date mit Marek am liebsten auf dem Absatz kehrt gemacht h tte und sie sich seitdem von der gegen berliegenden Wohnung beobachtet f hle? Ja, dass sie deshalb begonnen habe, einen Akt von sich zu malen, und n chtelang halb nackt vor der Staffelei posiere, begleitet von Empfindungen, die sie in dieser Intensit t selten gesp rt hat? Nein, Charlotte kann sich keinem anvertrauen, zu abwegig und letztendlich erotisierend ist die Geschichte, in die sie unaufhaltsam hineingezogen wird. Ein Buch ber Kunst und Frauen, gepaart mit einer au ergew hnlichen Liebesgeschichte und der Botschaft an alle Kunst schaffenden Frauen, eine eventuell verhasste Arbeit nur als Brotjob zu betrachten und der Kreativit t im Leben den n tigen Freiraum einzurichten.
