Editor's Note:
Corey Lomax, an English professor at Allerton University in suburban Philadelphia, is the author of two collections of short fiction. As the summer semester approaches, Corey continues to recover from the rupture of a six year relationship with Jennifer Renfrew, the Assistant Dean of Admissions. Despite her unfaithfulness to Corey, Jennifer still has feelings for her former lover. She barely conceals these feelings, although she has embarked on a new relationship with a Philadelphia police officer, Pat Adamson.Kinshasa Jordan, a novelist and teacher who has taken a leave of absence from her public high school teaching position in Connecticut, accepts a writer-in-residence position at Allerton. Kinshasa has left more than a teaching job. She has bid good-bye to an abusive relationship.Corey and Kinshasa meet as colleagues, writers, and minority women who are navigating their way through the sometimes unfriendly territory of white male dominated academia. Neither woman is interested in pursuing a relationship other than a platonic one. In fact, both Corey and Kinshasa are hell bent on avoiding any romantic entanglements, despite the best efforts of their well meaning friends.As the story unfolds, so do secrets, betrayals, the murder of one of the supporting characters, and the slowly smoldering yet steadily building attraction between Corey and Kinshasa.
