Gina should have been relishing in the spoils of being a newlywed, instead she finds herself at an emotional crossroad with her six-month old daughter, Baby Love, in tow. The nickname, Baby Love was symbolic of her wedding vows, but lately love is more like an occasional guest rather than a permanent resident in her marriage. She’s been standing firm in the fight to save what’s left of her relationship but, after one night, she must face the fact that there may not be anything left to fight for.
Starr has secured one of the most essential desires of every woman — financial stability. She works hard to ensure that she’s able to provide for herself without the help of a man because, in her experience, relationships come with burdens she’s unwilling to carry. Men are only necessary for that occasional itch that she can’t scratch herself — or so she thought.
After her second divorce, Nikki finds herself finally acknowledging everything left behind — yet again. Grief and loss are old friends who seem unwilling to remain in the past. Then just as she finally finds the courage to begin creating a life of her own and opens herself to new possibilities, life throws her yet another blow —one that she may never recover from.
Unfolding in raw emotions, Something Deeper is a poignant and compelling novel that takes you into the lives of three African American women as they struggle to accept accountability and seek redemption by letting go of the past.
