Janet McDonald introduces readers to two sisters who discover that all you have to do is stick together to handle lifes many twists and turns.

It may have taken them an extra year or two to do it, but the Washington sisters finally graduated high school, and this definitely calls for a celebration. But after the party ends, then what? The girls have no plans. Unlike their smart best friend Raven Jefferson, whos away at college, and their nerdy best friend Toya Larson, whos in computer training, and their overall best friend Aisha Ingram, whos rocking in TV commercials, Keeba and Teesha are still hanging out on neighborhood benches as if nothings changed.

Then an older friend convinces the sisters that they, too, have a skill braiding hair and why not make a business of it? With a loan from Aisha, the Washingtons open TeeKees Tresses in a rented storefront, and the future looks pretty solid . . . that is, until a rivals jealousy, a landlords greed, and a politicians scheme turn the sisters world upside down.
