Happy Is on Hiatus

Sisterhood is the secret weapon for two women at crossroads in a bighearted multigenerational novel about family, forgiveness, and fresh starts by the author of The After Party.
When Rita McCall discovers her husband's affair, there isn't a lick of surprise--not a single tear or broken heart. Just a wife and mother who's over it and ready to watch her twenty-three-year marriage go up in flames. Sticking close, thick as thieves since childhood, Rita's unfailingly loyal cousins Jemel and Sharae become her lifeline. They stand beside her as she contemplates a new career and navigates the murky waters of being a preacher's daughter disgraced by scandal.
Although she would never turn her back on her cousin, Sharae has her own issues to deal with after learning of her father's jailhouse death and an inheritance she doesn't want. The last things she needs right now are a handsome lawyer snooping around in her business and a secret that comes back to bite.
With the cousins at life-changing crossroads, it'll take the wisdom of the Aunts and their family's legacy of feeding the soul to guide them through the painful secrets, betrayals, and empowering revelations ahead. They'll learn that what matters most is holding tight to love, to the promise of happiness, and most of all to each other.
