Keeping Secrets

Brought together in college, from different walks of life, four women became sisters, divas, friends for life. Meshell, Lexie, Tonya, and Tracee are single and successful in their career choices, but missing something. Electa Rome Parks' Ladies' Night Out is told from the first person's perspective. Each one of these women has a voice, but they do not always use it when they should. Alexis is a psychologist and a preacher's daughter. She has an aura of innocence left from her upbringing. Even though she has had sex, she has never experienced the ultimate big "O". After one of their monthly ladies night, and everyone had a juicy story to share, she was missing something and was determined to find it. But would she find what she is seeking and still be safe? Meshell, the ADA, comes from a family of lawyers, but is living on the edge. She thought that she had left this part of her life back at college, but she is quickly learning that she is out of control. Her drug of choice is very dangerous. Being in the career field that she is in, she should know this, but she does not care. Or does she? Tonya comes from a family that was very poor, and vowed to herself never to have to work two jobs and do without when she became an adult. Tonya is a wine buyer, so she gets to travel all over tasting and buying wine. Even though she is very successful in her career, she still wants the American dream. How far will she go to get what she is trying to attain? Tracee is now a beautiful college English professor. When she was growing up, she was an overweight teen. Right before going to college she had a wakeup call and that helped her to lose the weight that once held her back. Now she is flaunting it in ways that may one day cost her something very important, her life. These four women are so close to each other but yet so far away from the true identity of each other. Can they still be friends once their secrets are found out? Will this be their last Ladies' Night Out? I recommend this to a reader from all walks of life. This is truly a read that everyone that picks it up will enjoy. Reviewed by Jennifer Coissiere APOOO BookClub
