Chocolate Souffle

Aura Olivier, whose parents and two siblings emigrated from the Caribbean island of St. Lucia when she was only two years old, was born with sickle-cell anemia. Tall, dark and beautiful with a jet black mane of hair, Aura's quite accustomed to the attention of men but fears she will not find a man who can love her despite her illness. Aura must learn to deal not only with the pain of her disease, but with her own shame and insecurity because of it, while struggling to be successful in the world of corporate advertising. Eddie Ryder, a recent immigrant from Abaco, Bahamas, left his mother on the island to come to the U.S. with his philandering father. Tall, handsome and wild-haired, Eddie easily follows in his father's womanizing footsteps until he begins to stop seeking his father's approval and start questioning his example. Despite a successful career as a model, he eventually becomes bored by his easy access to women and begins to consider what he really wants out of life. Sophia Boyd, a voluptuous, light-eyed beauty, moved to New York City from Mississippi to attend the Fashion Institute of Technology to study clothing design. Her friendship with a lesbian leads her into an array of personal dilemmas, while the weight of her parents' troubles in a too-long marriage seems to rest on her shoulders. Chocolate Souffle is a sexy, funny, smart romantic drama set in New York City in the late 80's and early 90's. It will take you back, make you laugh and maybe even shed a tear."
