Sisters in Law - Paperback

by Sylvia Mulholland (Author)

Three women lawyers--partners in mid-career at the same small firm--have very different takes on work verses personal life. There's Kali, married and the mother of two--like a train running on multiple tracks, she juggles family, marriage, home and career. There's Jada--powerful, sexy, black, and single, embroiled in a workplace romance that's ending on a very sour note. And then there's single mom, Gillian, doing her creative writing in any scrap of time she can find: dreaming about quitting law and living the life of an artist, once her troubled teenaged daughter gets her life on track. But when a horrible tragedy shatters the firm, the women must pull together to pick up the pieces. As they do, they discover some strange and startling truths about each other, and even more, about the men they've been partners with for years. In an effort to right the ship and get the firm back on course, Kali throws a lingerie-tea-shower for the young law student engaged to marry the senior partner, unaware of the minefield of social etiquette she'll be obliged to navigate. The tea party doesn't quite go quite as planned, but it certainly does go off--with dramatic and hilarious consequences.
