Sassy Sonja follows Sonja Kent after she leaves home in Jacksonville to start a new life in Atlanta after the death of her abusive ex-husband. Drawing strength from her Aunt Grace and friend Sandy, Sonja tries to put the past behind her.
Her newfound freedom leads to her meeting Marion Avon, the young, up-and-coming man from a wealthy and influential Atlanta family. Marion asks her to marry him. Their wedding is glorious, but Sonjas bitter parents refuse to attend. Given her humble roots, it takes time for Sonja to adjust to her new role as a young Atlanta socialite.
Set in the 1960s, Sassy Sonja tackles the end of racial segregation in the South and when a new day of racial equality was dawning. Like many in the South, fear of the violence erupting from the social change took over the protagonist. She finds courage and confidence in dealing with the conflict.
