Caribbean & Diaspora Storytelling
Easier Said Than Done
by Nikki Woods
Can a modern woman balance a career, a family, and a heart she already broke once?
Kingston Phillips, a beautiful entertainment executive in the fast-paced city of Chicago, has finally grasped the brass ring. But just as her friends and colleagues are buzzing with her success, Kingston must return to Jamaica for her grandmother’s funeral.
While there, childhood tragedies, heartbreak, and family jealousies come back to haunt her, threatening to shatter her dreams. Not only does Kingston come face to face with the college sweetheart who left her heartbroken, but her grandmother names her executor of her will and forces her to make a life-altering decision.
Does Kingston continue to reap her success in Chicago, or stay in Jamaica to fulfil her grandmother’s dream — possibly risking another broken heart? A touching novel of love and risk, with a cast so full of life they breathe, dream and shout right off the page.
