About this title

Synopsis

An ample collection of larger-than-life romances by noted African-American authors includes Rochelle Alers's "Reunion," in which shapely size-sixteen Elaine Jackson Stewart finds unexpected love with an old high school friend who has had a crush on her for years, along with tales by Donna Hill, Brenda Jackson, and Francis Ray. Original.

Reviews

Living Large presents four touching stories about curvaceous African American women at pivotal points in their lives--from divorce to pregnancy--and how they find new love and rediscover old passions. In Rochelle Alers' "Reunion," Elaine divorces her high-school sweetheart after 20-plus years of marriage and falls for her old chum Reuben, who has gone from class geek to gorgeous sheik. In Donna Hill's "Surprise," 52-year-old Elizabeth is surprised to find herself pregnant for the first time, and so are her husband and grown, adopted children. In Brenda Jackson's "Bare Essentials," Judge Dominique Kincaid has had a rough run at love and has sworn off men until she spots a handsome jogger who sets her pulse racing. In Francis Ray's "Strictly Business," Monica breaks up with Mr. Wrong, discovers Mr. Right living right next door, and does her best to separate business and pleasure after her father hires him. Full of humorous encounters, sweetly charming heroines, and the message that living large and loving one's self are good things, this gem of a book is sure to leave readers happy. Megan Kalan
