Everybody loved Roman.
Camille Bellamy-Bryant sure did. So did her mother, her aunties, the funeral home staff, half the church, and every cousin who needed a man to lift a chair, fix a problem, or smile like somebody’s answered prayer.
Zola Bellamy? She never bought the act.
Zola left the Bellamy family years ago with anger in her mouth and a scandal on her name. Camille stayed behind, playing the good daughter, perfect wife, and family fixer while everybody praised her for holding the house together. The sisters barely speak unless they’re arguing, and when their father’s funeral drags Zola back to Bellamy House, old resentment walks in right behind her wearing heels.
Then Roman does what Roman does best.
He gets close.
Too close.
One bad choice between Zola and Camille’s husband turns a funeral week into full-blown family war. The golden daughter is humiliated. The runaway daughter becomes the villain everybody expected. Their mother wants the Bellamy name protected at all costs, and the rest of the family is eating leftovers while watching the whole thing burn.
But Bellamy House has more than grief in the walls.
Their father left behind strange instructions, locked rooms, business records, and a funeral home empire full of secrets somebody wants buried. Now Zola and Camille have to decide what’s stronger: the betrayal between them, or the truth circling the family like it knows where every body is hidden.
Messy, witty, and drama-packed, Everybody Loved Roman is a family scandal story about sisters, secrets, image, marriage, money, and the dangerous little lies people call loyalty.
