Renowned, Baltimore-based sculptor Tonya Mimms focuses on her artwork to the exclusion of everything, including her thirst for love. Then one day, Tonya's firm footing in the artworld slips when she takes on a project that pushes her completely out of her artistic realm. While running from the sculpture, Tonya bumps into Malcolm Holland, a handsome accountant with a dazzling gap between his teeth that lures her in the way a man's secrets seduces a woman's ear. Suddenly, Tonya joyfully finds herself in love with a man for the first time in her life. But Tonya's happiness turns to fearful bliss when she happens upon Satin Pierce, a strikingly beautiful bookstore owner, who has one of Tonya's sculptures on a shelf in her bedroom. Soon, Tonya becomes the centerpiece of a love triangle in which she is forced to choose between the man of her dreams and the woman destined to be her reality. A multi-dimensional story, Water In A Broken Glass illustrates the complexity of art, love, and sexuality.
