Families always have secrets. And secrets have the power to heal—or hurt. Now beloved author Donna Hill's enthralling novel explores the wrongs we do for the right reasons, and the ways we struggle to reconcile the truth.
Journalist Zoie Crawford had to leave New Orleans to finally make her own life. Her grandmother, Claudia, inspired her to follow her dreams—just as her mother, Rose, held on too tight. But with Claudia's passing, Zoie reluctantly returns home, where the past is written in the lonely corners of the bayou and the New South's supercharged corridors of power. And there she discovers a stunning, painstakingly kept secret—one that could skyrocket her career, but destroy another woman's—and change both their vastly different lives, for better or for much worse.
Zoie has always put the truth first. Now, as the line between the personal and professional blurs, and she tries to understand her relatives' deception, she must face some tough questions. Is there a way to expose the truth and save those you love? And at what cost? Heartfelt, emotional, and revelatory, A House Divided is an unforgettable tale about making the hardest of choices, coming to terms with all you could lose—and finding what forgiveness and family truly mean.

      Zoie Crawford is a strong-willed and talented African American journalist who is the lead writer on a series about the aftermath of 9/11. She has earned her success, but Zoie's busy life in New York is also an excuse she uses to avoid her mother's passive-aggressive phone calls. When she learns of her grandmother's death, Zoie knows that she has to return home to New Orleans and confront all that she ran away from, including her family and her former lover, Jackson. Family secrets and loyalty are the heart of this sentimental contemporary romance about a reunion contrived by a deceased matriarch who left a will that forces these feisty women to live under the same roof and deal with the past. Romance rekindles with handsome Jackson, who has always held a torch for Zoie, and although their reunion is sweet, the love story takes a backseat to the family drama, which fans of Brenda Jackson and Sheila Copeland will likely enjoy.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2017, American Library Association.)
