Touch the Mimosa Sky

Coriander Mary Bishop is beautiful and restless. She dreams of cool ocean breezes as she sits under the Mimosa tree to escape the hot South Carolina sun. When her mom gets sick, she drops out of school to help care for her four younger siblings. But she needs to work, so she lies about her age to begin dancing at Honey's. Her new friends turn her into a glittering, glamorous burlesque dancer and nobody knows she's only 15. The money is pouring in and Cori loves performing, but the owner's son, Lenny, is obsessed with her lush, exotic beauty. One dark night ends in tragedy and now she must leave Summerville to serve her sentence. Bobby, a young man who has always loved her, is her anchor through the storms, and Momma's mimosa is a beacon that guides her back home.
