Description
Blessings is the name of the local beauty salon where four women -- Patricia, Zuma, Faye, and Sandy -- get together and tend to each other's concerns about men, motherhood, and, of course, their hair. Patricia, the owner, has finally accepted her infertility only to discover that adoption brings its own pains and disappointments. Zuma is plagued by regrets about an abortion in her past and resolves to become a mother before her biological clock stops ticking. Faye, a widow and single mother, is trying her best to provide for her wild daughter, while Sandy, for whom motherhood is an unwelcome burden, blatantly mistreats her children. How these women join together in times of need, and learn to count their many blessings, is what this novel is all about.
