Sweetcakes When a sheltered young white woman, consumed by obsession, elopes with a Black gambler entangled in addiction and the drug trade, the consequences reverberate through generations. Three lifetimes later, Sweetcakes is born into the shadow of that fateful union. From birth, Sweetcakes feels no natural bond with her mother-only a haunting sense of disconnection. Raised in a home steeped in chaos and betrayal, she learns early how to survive by her wits. What begins as innocence soon hardens into a fierce resilience. Yet the same strength that shields her also isolates her, molding her into a woman as manipulative as she is magnetic. A generational saga of desire, addiction, and redemption, Sweetcakes explores how love can wound as deeply as it heals-and how one woman's fight to escape her family's curse may be the key to her salvation.
