Hurricane Katrina affected the lives of everyone who lived through it. Dr. Alexis White is a pediatrician living in post-Kartrina New Orleans. She's a professional woman who returned to her beloved city to accomplish whatever she could in its reconstruction and recovery. Things become complicated for her when she is caught up in an emotional love triangle between streetwise attorney Jamar Duplessis, her current boyfriend, and Reggie Morgan, her one great love of the past who has returned. Deftly written by Rhonda M. Lawson, "Putting It Back Together" is a memorable and highly recommended read focused on the lives of three successful yet incomplete people played out against the backdrop of a city determined to emerge from the ruination of Hurricane Katrina into an even better version of itself for the future.
