Six friends. One unforgettable reunion. Secrets that will change everything.

When Rebecca, Gina, Mary, Sally, Lilly, and Katie reunite in paradise six years after graduation, they expect sun-soaked beaches and carefree laughter. Instead, their week in Turks & Caicos becomes a catalyst for life-altering revelations that test the bonds of their friendship in ways none of them imagined.

Sally harbors a dangerous secret about her relationship with a married doctor that's spiraling toward a devastating breaking point. Rebecca finally finds the courage to come out to her closest friends, risking everything for authentic love. Mary's wild night of letting loose leads to an unexpected pregnancy with a stranger she can't forget. Gina returns home to discover her fiancé has a daughter—and instant motherhood wasn't part of her plan. Katie seems to have it all figured out with her perfect engagement, but even she isn't immune to the challenges ahead. And Lilly's carefree spirit masks her own journey toward finding real love.

From the pristine shores of the Caribbean to the complexities of life back home—spanning Miami, Manhattan, Las Vegas, Orlando, Los Angeles, and Fort Bragg—these women navigate careers, trauma, unexpected motherhood, coming out, and the messy, beautiful reality of adult friendships. When crisis strikes and one of them faces unthinkable violence, they prove that chosen family is just as powerful as blood.

Journeys of the Heart is a contemporary women's fiction novel celebrating Black female friendship, resilience, and the transformative power of unconditional support. With authentic voices, emotional depth, and unflinching honesty, this story explores what it means to show up for the people you love—even when life gets impossibly complicated.
