Pride and Joi

Joi Martin knew what she wanted in a man: someone who could give her all the things she'd dreamed about from her working-class world~wealth, privilege and safety. Joe Pride was a solid, blue-collar factory worker: everything Joi was sure she didn't want. When her "prince charming" appears in the person of Claude Jeeter, bearing gifts and promising her a gilded future, Joi is forced to question her old dreams.

Joi is torn between two lovers. One man captures her heart, nourishes her soul and makes her body sing. The other man stimulates her mind, exorcizes her demons and could give her the world for the asking. Joe Pride offers her non-monetary riches that cannot be measured in diamonds and gold, while Claude Jeeter provides her with status and finances to set all her lifelong dreams to music. Today's love or tomorrow's security? Who will she choose? Who would you choose?

A tale of color, class and caste set in 1990s Detroit.
