Life in the Flavor of Bourbon Vanilla

When seasoned travel writer, Grant Markham, and his young, black intern, Ashanti Moore, are assigned to travel to Charleston, S.C., to cover the annual Spoleto Festival, they arrive several days early to prepare, and are swiftly caught-up in the daily lives of a diverse group of Lowcountry locals. In addition to an attorney who assumes multiple hats, his jazz-singer girlfriend, a celebrity drag-queen and her white lover, who works on cars, yet holds a psychology doctorate, and an enigmatic employee who works for the attorney, as well as performing in shows at The Singularity, a local gay club, they also meet a woman planning to erect a Gullah Museum on her Sea Island property, as well as her felon-turned-businessman son, with whom Ms. Moore becomes romantically involved. Lessons in diversity, trust, and understanding others' help the group bond to protect their attorney friend from a vengeful US attorney and his scheming paralegal seeking to indict the attorney on dubious allegations.
