      "Step inside for a day of love, beauty, laughter...and love. Whether you want a cut, weave or braid; a facial, manicure, or massage; there's always a helping hand--and a sympathetic ear--at Rosie's Curl and Weave on 125th Street in Harlem. And sometimes, when you least expect it, love walks in the door. So sit back, relax, put your feet up, and enjoy, as four talented writers render four magical stories about the love of beauty and the beauty of love. Rochelle Alers gets the sparks flying, as a high-maintenance banker finds herself falling, against her better judgement, for a handsome delivery man who walks into Rosie's... Donna Hill puts the assistant manager of Rosie's in the path of a fine-looking contractor, whose hypnotic honey-brown eyes could be her undoing... Felicia Mason helps the owner of Rosie's discover that you don't have to be young--just young at heart--to fall in love... Francis Ray turns a timid, dowdy duckling into a confident, sexy swan--and sends her into the arms of a handsome artist--with the help of Rosie's Curl and Weave"--
