In the modern South, where reputation is currency and choices can echo for generations, three women are forced to face the tangled truths of love, ambition, and motherhood.
Delilah has it all — an immaculate home, a respected name, and a son groomed for greatness. But when a long-buried secret threatens everything she’s built, she must confront whether control is truly love—or the very thing that could destroy her family.
Marie, bright and determined, thought she had her path laid out. Until one night blurred every line she’d drawn and left her questioning everything she thought she knew about love, shame, and the quiet pressure to be perfect.
Mayfield has spent a lifetime mastering grace under pressure. As the women who come after her wrestle with freedom, love, and legacy, Mayfield stands at the crossroads between tradition and transformation—guarding the line between what was and what’s to come.
From yacht decks to church pews, whispered prayers to late-night confessions, Southern Girls is a sweeping, intimate portrait of Black Southern womanhood—of secrets carried, choices claimed, and the courage it takes to write a new legacy when the world is watching.
Featuring a curated soundtrack, original recipes, and discussion questions for book clubs, Southern Girls marks a powerful and unforgettable debut from author Kat Ball.
