E. Lynn Harris meets Terry McMillan in the latest novel from one of the most powerful young voices in African American women's fiction. In ANYONE WHO HAS A HEART, three young black professionals share the ups and downs of trying to find love at an age when most of their friends have long since settled down. After a startling revelation, the successful and seemingly happy Theresa is left to discern a lover's true intentions. Zenobia, an ambitious single mother, must deal with the inextricable connection she has to her abusive ex, who shares custody of their daughter and their business. Vince, a self-proclaimed heterosexual who furtively carries on with men, must alter his perception of manhood and confront his fear of AIDS. Jacqueline Powell's startlingly authentic look at the dilemmas of three intriguing characters shows what happens when crisis strikes in single life. This provocative story will strike a chord with ANYONE WHO HAS A HEART.
