Emotions

Ever since he burst onto the literary scene, Timmothy B. McCann's novels have been cherished by readers and lauded by reviewers. His debut novel, Until, was a national bestseller; and his latest book, Forever, which Dafina published in hardcover last year and in trade paperback this past February, is a Black Expressions Book Club Main Selection. In "Emotions," McCann once again delivers a truly satisfying novel filled with the recognizable, complex characters and thoughtful, compelling story that readers have come to expect from this masterful writer."Emotions" revolves around Joi Weston, a beautiful sitcom star, and Philip Evans, the Florida businessman for whom she has given up her glamorous Hollywood career. Handsome and stable, Phillip offers the only things Joi has truly ever desired — a solid, committed relationship.

As the years go by, a chill falls over Phillip and Joi's marriage, and even in the sunshine state, they are unable to rekindle the magic they once shared. While Joi flounders, desperately seeking a purpose in life, Phillip seems interested only in pursuing political ambitions. That's when Fate brings writer Michael Brockmier into Joi's life. Exotic, sensual, and poetic, Michael stirs a passion in her that she's never known before. But it is a passion fraught with complication, forcing Joi to make a heart-wrenching choice that will have lifelong consequences. . .for her and for the two men she loves.
