SISTERS AND HUSBANDS is the sequel to Sisters and Lovers, where we first met sisters, Evelyn, Charmaine and Beverly…and the drama continues.

Beverly has been engaged three times and the last two engagements she broke off just before walking down the aisle.  Now she believes she’s met the man of her dreams in Julian and she’s sure she wants to spend the rest her life with him.  Her family is happy she is finally settling down.

Family and friends see Evelyn’s and Kevin’s marriage as picture perfect, both have successful jobs, a beautiful home, fancy cars and two children.  But there’s trouble in paradise and Evelyn is not sure how to handle it.

Three times divorced, Charmaine is now living in married bliss of one year with Tyrone until havoc erupts, as she tries to bring two families together.

After learning of her sisters’ marital problems, Beverly begins evaluating her relationship with Julian.  She knows they love each other, but is marriage worth it if she has to work so hard at it?  Will she marry Julian? Or will she call it off at the last minute….again?

SISTERS AND HUSBANDS is a refreshing summer read.  Briscoe’s writing is light and airy with a sprinkle of spice and a whole lot of drama.  The depiction of the characters is genuine and the flow of the novel is smooth from beginning to end.  I recommend SISTERS AND HUSBANDS for a quick summer pick-me-up!!
