His African American-French Ancestors have used their light skin color to their advantage for generations and his mother remains unreasonably obsessed with “keeping color”. Armand loves his mother dearly, but when he falls for the dark- skinned beauty of his dreams, Jennifer Brown, he discovers that his life is not his own and his ruthless mother will stop at nothing to keep him away from Jennifer.
Come along for the ride and see how her manipulations almost destroy the mental health of two generations of Baptistes.
