A Do Right Man by Omar Tyree

Bobby Dallas is a straight, single, good-looking, employed black man - and he doesn't even have kids. Every woman dreams of him, but what does Bobby Dallas dream of? After a shattering breakup with his first love, Bobby heads towards cynicism and burnout as he wanders for years between women and jobs. His unpredictable love life and career in talk radio lead him on a whirlwind of uncertainty as he struggles to keep his feet on the ground. In A DO RIGHT MAN, Tyree gives us a rare glimpse of the confusion of the professional man trying to do the right thing, pondering the fundamental questions of love, life and marriage.
