Blue Interlude — Keisha Mennefee

Under her father/manager Timothy Russell's tutelage, there was no end to the heights singer Tara Russell could achieve. First with her two sisters Mia and Jordan as part of singing group, Pure, and later as a solo artist, the gifted performer delighted audiences with her quiet beauty, charming personality and impressive vocal range. Although her rise to fame included stays in luxury hotel suites, exotic cars and all the designer labels she could want, it also came with terrible sacrifice, including the relationship with her siblings, the loss of her first love, Marcus, and the child Tara gave up for adoption almost a decade ago.

Now on the brink of releasing the “album of her career,” Tara's life appears golden to the outside world. Only her assistant, Sydney, and her long-time friend and producer extraordinaire, Quinton, notice the pain and loss in Tara's eyes. When asked by a ratings-hungry talk show host whether she regrets not making time to start a family, Tara, no longer able to mask her anguish, realizes the time has come to finally come to terms with the decisions she has made. Determined to make peace with her past, Tara sets off to heal old wounds and possibly open her heart to love.
