A Time to Heal
Recently arrived from a tobacco farm, Ella Lofton struggles to fit in with Washington DC’s black elite of which her distant family belongs. She dreams of becoming a lawyer for the NAACP to fight the injustice of lynching. Her family originally objects to her plans but eventually agrees to support her if she marries someone from their social set.
Will Bradford can never measure up to his brother Parker, a paragon of their social circle. Will, a pariah, is nothing but trouble. When he sees Ella having trouble fitting in, he offers to help her find an eligible man acceptable to her family. Instead he falls in love with Ella. Can Will convince Ella to become more than friends?
