A synopsis isn’t the same as the back cover blurb.
A synopsis is a summary of all the main plot points in your book, from beginning to end, including spoilers.

The function of a synopsis is to let an agent or publisher know if the initial promise in your first three chapters is supported by the rest of the book. So, there’s no point holding back: it has to summarise everything. And it has to be a short summary, ideally between 500 – 800 words.

What reviewers are saying:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
A raw, honest exploration of the complexities of interracial marriage and the devastating impact of racism. It's a story about love, loss, and the courage to find your voice. Winters doesn't shy away from the ugliness, but she also offers hope and resilience. Her ability to transform pain into power is inspiring. Not only does she survive, she truly thrives.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Takes More Than Love" isn't just a memoir; it's a powerful call to action. It's a reminder that we all have a role to play in dismantling systemic racism. Winters' courage in sharing her story is a beacon of light in a world that desperately needs it. If you're looking for a book that will challenge you, inspire you, and break your heart, this is it.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This author is a wizard with words and spins them into a beautiful web of expertise and enlightenment.
