All That Drama — Tina Brooks McKinney

Sammie Davis's life is constant chaos -- which is exactly the life that Marie Morgan wants for herself.

Marie Morgan, a single mother of two, is currently separated from her husband. One day on the way to work, Marie befriends Sammie in an Atlanta subway station. With her short skirts, high heels, and occasional birdcage hairdo, Sammie is everything Marie is not -- fearless, brazen, flamboyant, and completely sure of herself. A woman who flaunts her wild unconventionality, Sammie exudes self-confidence and dares to laugh at life.

Marie feels empowered by her new friend, and Sammie is always there whenever Marie feels the urge to be a little wild. But beneath her facade of bravado and sexual abandon, Sammie conceals her own deep pain and a dark history that gradually comes to light.

A powerful novel about the doubts, insecurities, and low self-esteem that can sabotage our most important relationships, All That Drama offers a fresh, witty, and moving look at women's issues, and the sisterhood that can also sustain us through life's toughest times.
