Benjamin fell in love with Coralee when he was seven and she was four.  He felt so strongly that he announced to all he was going to marry the little black girl one day.  Well, Ben’s mother put a stop to that right away by forbidding her maid to bring her daughter to work from that moment on.  Years later the two are reunited at college where segregation still keeps the lovers apart until a chance encounter brings back all of the feelings that have never dissipated.  Passion ignites and this time the lovers will try to keep their relationship a secret.  Will it be as easy as they think or will societal influences force the couple to stand together and follow their hearts?

The characters and plotline are fully developed and feel like the real world with real people.  I made an emotional connection to Ben and Coralee and felt their love and pain in equal measure.  The obstacles these two admirable individuals must overcome are realistically presented, making me feel like I was right there beside them all the way.  Author Savannah Frierson captures the essence of Southern rules and bigotry with flair; she made me recall what it was like as a child growing up in the South.  Full of tension and tenderness, racial tension and romance, author Savannah J. Frierson captures the essence of a turbulent time in our nation’s history.  BEING PLUMVILLE is a novel I plan to purchase for several friends.
