During the Rodney King riots in L.A., reporter Porter Stockman is nearly beaten to death by rioters. His savior: Lee Page, also a reporter, who soon lands a job at the same Philadelphia newspaper where Porter works. Thus begins a tumultuous interracial relationship, with both parties struggling to decide what race means and why. "Biracial marriage and radical bigotry are explored with potent insight and literary skill.... McLarin pulls no punches." - Publishers Weekly "A surprisingly complex love story laced with the kind of breezy humor we expect from writers like Bebe Moore Campbell and Terry McMillan." - Library Journal
