Familiar faces and places meet fresh twists and turns in this enthralling novel from acclaimed author Pearl Cleage.
Â
Atlantaâ‚¬s West End district has always been a haven and home to a coterie of unique charactersâ‚¬"artists and thinkers, dreamers and doers. Folks here know one anotherâ‚¬s names, keep their doors unlocked, and look out for their neighbors. Anyone planning to sell drugs, vandalize, or rob a little old lady should think twice before hitting this part of town. And Blue Hamilton, West Endâ‚¬s unofficial mayor and longtime protector, will see to it that you do. Blue wears many hats here, including adored husband to Regina, dear nephew to Abbey, and doting father to Sweetie and another little one on the way.

Blue is also the man you pay your respects to if youâ‚¬re looking to set up shop in this urban enclaveâ‚¬"just ask Serena Mayflower, whom Blue sees striding down Ralph David Abernathy Boulevard wearing skin-tight black leather pants, thigh-high boots, and bright red lipstick. This tall, slender, ethereally beautiful woman and her four equally striking sisters make up the Too Fine Five, a quintet of international supermodels who have arrived in town for an Essence magazine photo shoot.
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
But Blueâ‚¬s gut tells him that thereâ‚¬s more to these Mayflower mademoiselles than their affection for full moons and Bloody Marys. With the help of his beloved Regina and their close friends and relations in West End, Blue vows to uncover the womenâ‚¬s secret intentionsâ‚¬"and prove once and for all that there is no greater force on earth than the power of love.

A mesmerizing slice of not-so-everyday life, brimming with wicked wit and spiced with a few supernatural surprises, Just Wanna Testify showcases Pearl Cleageâ‚¬s masterly storytelling at its soulful and satisfying finest.
