Author Deanna Kimberly Burrell showcases the trials and triumphs of life, love, and relationships through the three main characters Button Jackson, Dawn Martin, and Meghan Cherry-Henderson. We are introduced to them at a crucial time in each woman’s life. They form an alliance and vow to make the most of the upcoming summer in Chicago. Against the backdrop of festivals, picnics, and al fresco dining, they share relationship perspectives, face fears, heal deep emotional wounds, and learn the power of forgiveness. Button, Dawn, and Meghan come together by chance, grow together as friends, and ultimately discover that for every girl, there’s a season.
Single Girl Summer launched on June 21st, 2011. Tour the website to find out more about the book and the author. Stay connected by coming back each week to read a new blog in the “Red Cup Adventures” series, and get ready as we celebrate summer all year long…

What an absolutely wonderful and positive spin on singlehood and sisterhood!! I found myself imagining all the things me and my single sistahs can get into this summer!! Chicago is only a short train ride away!! Holla!
Great Book! Beautiful Author! What else can I say. Ms. Burrell thank you for inspiring and educating students at Lincoln School.
Excellent Read!!! This book was fun, inspirational, and so much more. I’m so Meghan plus 10 yrs. and the advice that Momma Cherry gave, Button on everything, Whew, Loved it!!!
