The Wait: A Novel

Angel Stevenson is searching for answers as to why she has made such poor choices when getting into romantic entanglements. Two months after she makes the decision to remain celibate for a full year, she meets Todd Sessoms, a smart, handsome man whose cologne mesmerizes her and tempts her to cancel her recent decision. At first, Todd seems to be the perfect partner, but small glimpses of a darker personality eventually start to emerge. Things get even murkier when an ex shows back up and complicates her life. Angel depends on her three best friends for advice but gets the answers she needs from a surprising source. The Wait explores what treatment and interactions a person needs in order to be fulfilled in a romantic relationship. Though the novel reveals specific answers for Angel, The Wait offers readers insights into what process might help them answer the same question for themselves.
