Book Description
It is easy to delete texts, numbers, and posts on social media, but how do you delete the love for your soul mate out of your life? Professor Riley did not have an answer for her eager students, but she did have love, experience, and the wisdom of her three best friends to offer. In her mind, she was like the modern-day Job from the Christian Bible. What would happen if God took away everything that you know and love to see if you would shake, bend, and break? Before she was a professor, she was a female who wanted to love one man and be loved by him forever. Love doesnt work that way, though.

It is time to break that cycle. We are not of the above, but we are still broken carrying the weight of what our ancestors brought forth. It is time to teach the Young Black Queens that they are beyond beautiful and there is absolutely no reason to feel inferior because of the color of our skin.
