If only the woman he loves was as happy for him as everyone else. But Omenita Jones isn’t planning on waiting three more years to start a life with Maurice. If he wants to go to law school, that’s fine. But she won’t be waiting when he’s finished. Feeling more alone than ever, Maurice finds an unexpected ally in a young white woman.
