Hi, I'm from Louisiana too, but that is not what my question is about the characters of her name in the sky. I was wondering if any of them were poc's in the novel? You didn't describe them as any one race and I know it is up to interpretation, but I think it is important for authors themselves to clarify. Anyway I am hopeful for your answer.

Hi Leilah! I'm thrilled to hear you're from Louisiana :)
Yes, Baker is half-Lebanese through her mother's side; her dad is white. The others are white - mostly German-Scotch-Irish, with Clay and Luke having Cajun heritage.

Absolutely loved your book. It was different--it didn't seem to focus more on the sexual aspect as opposed to everything but that. It was a great, sweet read and if not now, but in the future, please, write a sequel with these characters. They were all great, and written with heart. The only question I have is, when can I expect more of your work?
