The entwined lives of two girls - one whose home is destroyed - makes for a moving story as each chooses a very different path in adulthood. For Pat, who has never known the security of a loving family, it's career which is to dominate her life and spice her few relationships with unreliable men; for flighty Gayle, who's always taken her family for granted, it's romance with a rich black man who doesn't want her to know of his gambling habits. Each struggles with men and life in this moving, vividly realistic story.DeBerry, Virginia is the author of 'Tryin' to Sleep in the Bed You Made', published 1997 under ISBN 9780312152338 and ISBN 0312152337.
