A Meetin' in the Ladies Room!

So, if you haven't heard by now this is my 15 year author anniversary!  Yep, I wrote and published Sunday Brunch, a novel about five African-American women lawyers that are each at different places professionally socially and spiritually in my third year of  attending Thurgood Marshall School of Law. Wasn't my plan at ALL but when God has an agenda you need to listen and line up!  So I'd thought in the light of the third book release for the Sunday Brunch Series it would be great to revisit with the original Sunday Brunch Ladies.  To help you learn more about these ladies I decided to do a meet and greet right here on my blog!  The photos are "MY VISION" (not actual likenesses - think I'd get in trouble for that!) of the ladies of Sunday Brunch.  



WHO IS LEXI?

Faithful friend, perpetual shoulder to lean on, prayer partner, lawyer, seeking, praying for Mr. Right. Hopeful romantic.
 
Favorite Phrase:  "Lord, I love you but where's mine?"
Fashion Style:  Hi-low. Anything from Marshall's, TJ Maxx or from the outlet
Favorite Music: Old School, Slow Jams, Gospel
 
 
WHO IS CAPRI?

Sharp, gorgeous, confident lawyer.  Graduated at the top of her law class.  No nonsense, serious and in it to win it.  Law firm rock star on a mission until she meets Anthony Stanton, a client at her firm and pro-ball player.

Why she'd make a great friend:  She will always have your back and tells you the truth even when it hurts.
Favorite song:  Empire State of Mind
Fashion Style:  Tailored suits at the firm.  Anything comfortable when she's not.

Uber couple: Rich, beautiful and sexy

Why we love them as a couple: They met and feel in love the first week of law school.
Why we root for them:  In spite of some of Jermane's bad judgment and vulnerabilities we know they are made for each other. Rex is a good man that works overtime in his career and to please his lady.
Jermane's Style:  Pastels, pearls, anything that swirls. Epitome of grace and charm...she's a Southern Belle personified and a lady. Simplicity but always the best.  

WHO IS ANGEL?

Sharp, corporate lawyer that excels at all except love...by choice.

Why you need her as a friend:  She's mastered the corporate game, offers  sage advice wisdom with a much needed reality check. And she has a fierce and fully stocked closet!
What about her love life?  Ahhhh, enter Octavio. Younger man, Latin, long time friend that happens to be in love with her. 
Does she have a past?  Umm, maybe.  She left her hometown Washington, D.C. and family behind and never looked back. The Sunday Brunch crew is her family.

Spoiled, irresistible, loves to spend other people's money, perpetual party planner! Sparkles daily

Fashion Style: Anything Designer, Anything she can't afford
