Amanda, Dee and Pam have come a long way since they were schoolgirl
friends. Pam is now a ruthless, highly successful attorney. Amanda is a
single mother, raising a daughter, Tracey, on her own and working as a
paralegal in Pam's law firm. Dee, the most troubled of the three
friends, has completed law school at Columbia but never brought herself
to take the bar exam that would make her a working lawyer. Instead, she
lies and pretends to be anything but what she really is, an airline
flight attendant. As to romance, Amanda has formed a strong relationship
with tough but delightful Melvin until Tracey's father reenters the
picture after an absence of seventeen years. Pam is pursued by Marco, a
wealthy Italian psychiatrist but pushes him away. She suffered a
miscarriage and the loss of her fiance years before and is frightened of
commitment. Dee tells lies that she regrets. The last lie might make
her lose her longtime friend Sedrick forever as a result. Can these
three women find true love before it is too late?
"Destination D" is a well-written romance with a plot that twists and
turns believably to its happy ending. The friction between the
characters is excellent as is their dialogue. The story zips along at a
pace that will keep the readers absorbed. This is a novel that all
romance readers should read and enjoy as Pam, Dee and Amanda are
African-American, beautiful, screwed-up (in Dee's case), full of moxy
and good at withstanding adversity, and totally delightful, believable
heroines. "Destination D" is a novel that belongs in libraries, public
and personal, everywhere. Don't pass it by!
