Falling in love with him was easy. Staying in love? Well, that’s proving to be a challenge…

When my husband invited me to an evening gala, I was elated. We hadn’t spent time together in ages. Finally, I thought he heard my complaints. But when he - the great Caspian Yearwood - was chosen to lead the Charlotte chapter of the Mr. Black Organization at this event, my heart sank. Don’t get me wrong…I was excited he’d get to showcase Black History and further the movement of ‘our’ stories. But two years into this marriage, I’m struggling. I didn’t marry to be lonely, but Caspian is always unavailable where I am concerned. What’s a woman to do to get her man’s attention?

In the Baes of Juneteenth multi-author series, we invite you to journey to different cities to celebrate Juneteenth with the men of Mr. Black, an organization honoring Black love, Black culture, and Black history.
