Black Author Says Her New Novel is “Dreamgirls” Meets “Waiting to Exhale” with a Nostalgic 90s Twist

Nationwide — Kensington Publishing announces the release of its new novel Intermission by Phyllis R. Dixon. As glittering as their name, The Diamonds were on the brink of 1990s pop music stardom — until betrayal tore them apart. Now these four very different women are getting a second shot at success. But will reuniting mend their rift — or will lasting secrets, unspoken betrayals, new temptations, and the hard knocks of today’s music industry destroy them, and their dreams, for good?

Advance Praise for Intermission

Dixon gives her characters distinctive voices, exploring their inner lives and motivations, and her conversational style gives readers a front-row seat to the Diamonds’ sparkling reunion. Fans of Kimberla Lawson Roby and ReShonda Tate Billingsley will be enthralled. — Booklist

If you were a fan of girl music groups from the 1990s, you’ll love this story about the fictional girl group the Diamonds. — Jina Duvernay, Southland Voices

Phyllis R. Dixon’s Intermission is a moving reminder that fame and fortune never guarantee “happily ever after.” — Janis F. Kearney — CEO/Founder Celebrate! Maya Project
