 Finished: The Sun Sister (Riley) Book 6 of the Seven Sisters Series! Six sisters gather at their childhood home to mourn the loss of their very wealthy father, who adopted them all as babies from different parts of the world, and named them all for the Seven Sisters constellation. The sixth sister, twenty-six year old Electra D'Apliese, is the sister who was the most difficult baby and child. Always screaming and crying and arguing. She's now a 6'1" beautiful, ebony skinned, supermodel who is known all over the world. She's the only famous sister, and fame has taken its toll on her in the way of alcohol, drugs and men. As she gathers with the other sisters, she's angry at Pa Salt for leaving them. She wants nothing to do with the letter he has left her or the coordinates to where she was born. She just wants to get back to the rock star she's dating and her whirlwind life. Her life quickly takes a downturn when her boyfriend dumps her and she sinks more into the oblivion of her alcohol and drug use. Those who really care for her finally convince her to go to rehab. Before she goes, she comes face to face with her biological grandmother, who she looks exactly like! Her grandmother is a Harvard educated, well-known activist for black rights. While in rehab, Electra must come face to face with all her insecurities and fears, as well as decide if she really wants to explore her biological family. And, that family is so interesting! She is descended from African royalty, and her backstory is set in beautiful, but wild, Kenya. The beginning of the story really throws you for a loop, though, as it seems as if there is no way it could be related to Electra...but when it all comes to light, you fall in love with a woman named Cecily who sets everything in motion. Another great book! On to the last book, which is The Missing Sister...and then a long wait until May 2023 to get the book about Pa Salt that wraps everything up  and shows us how he picked each of the babies!
