Rivers of the Soul — Leslie Esdaile

Two friends divorce-each leaving their spouses to rekindle their high school flames in the midst of chaotic change and children. Antoinette Wellington once had it all - a beautiful home, solid career, handsome husband, and gorgeous little girl. But a nasty divorce had unraveled it all, leaving her ready to return home to rebuild her life from the ashes. Only, home wasn't there anymore. Deaths in the family and the changing tides of relationships have shifted her support base. Then, someone from twenty years ago, from the time in her life when she was happiest, reappears, causing her to question her sanity, morals, judgment, and future. Jerome Henderson, her high school sweetheart and the neighborhood rogue, is still as tall and gorgeous as she'd left him - but, indeed, very married. One look at her was all it took to remind him how deep the river of his soul ran. Antoinette was supposed to marry him, but dreams have a way of melting away when reality hits. Now she's back and available. The question is, should he risk it one more time? Leslie Esdaile lives in Philadelphia with her husband and four children. Leslie holds a B.S. in Economics and a Masters in Fine Arts and Filmmaking. Ms. Esdaile blends the themes of corporate entrepreneurial, and artistic lifestyles into dynamic, eclectic novels that teach, titillate, and invariably uplift.
