New Book Synopsis - The Escort II-Princess and the Surrogate
Spawned from "The Escort, Et Cetera," the drama continues with Sebastién Marcelis facing an arduous decision that could reshape his future as the most sought-after male escort in the Windy City.
Princess Spencer, the beautiful, talented supermodel and devoted mother of Sebastién's son, because of an emergency hysterectomy, seeks out the perfect surrogate and donor to provide her a baby. However, she's crushed by the harsh rejection from her love interest and ideal seed for her baby.
While Sebastién's incessant focus on his business leaves him unattainable to all suitors, his heart remains hopelessly available to one extraordinary woman. Will he once again be forced to choose between his love for her and his loyalty to Princess and their son?
Look for the riveting continuation, "The Escort III--Son of an Escort," coming in 2004!
And The Winner Is...
Michael Harden!
Mike Harden was in attendance at the Women of the S.O.U.L. book event where I was the featured author in February at Carol's Cakes on East Broad Street. I held a drawing for a lucky participant to win $500 worth of FREE dance lessons, to garner recognition to the art and sport of ballroom dancing, which my character, Tyana Dominique, in "Life is But a Dream" and "Dance Me to the End of Love," masters.
I'd like to congratulate Mike for winning his free dance lessons! And thank you, Mike, for purchasing "The Escort, Et Cetera." Enjoy! I would also like to thank Nneka McGee, KISO books, Carol's Cakes, and everyone in attendance for the opportunity to share my work. The pleasure was all mine!
If you would like to take your chances at winning YOUR $500 FREE Dance Course at the Fred Astaire Dance Studio, all you have to do is attend my book signing. It's that easy!

Life is But a Dream...
Check out my first novel, "Life is But a Dream." Meet Tatyana Dominique, her long-time boyfriend, Ellis Montgomery, her dance instructor, Antonio Lorenzo, and her trusted friends, Kellie, and Trevor.
This first novel tells of a woman who discovered a hidden passion. Just when she thinks she has the ideal life and she couldn't be more content, she's swept off her feet when she steps onto the dance floor for her first ballroom dance lesson.
But the adventures don't stop there, things heat up with Tatyana, Ellis, Antonio, and last but certainly not least, the infamous Charlotte St. Jean. Look for the saucy sequel, "Dance Me to the End of Love." Fasten your seatbelts!

Dance Me to the End of Love...
Check out my second novel, "Dance Me to the End of Love." This is the compelling sequel to "Life is but a Dream" and a must read. I kicked it up a notch and introduced the many facets of the antagonist: sexy, Charlotte St. Jean, who steals the show with her feisty attitude, and ability to stop at nothing in order to get what she wants; and what she wants is status, fortune, and her co-worker, Tyana's boyfriend, Ellis Montgomery. Incidentally, it isn't long before Antonio sees more in Tyana than just a talented dancer. Oh the drama!
WRITER'S DIGEST REVIEW:
"This is truly an intriguing romance silhouetted against the unique background of ballroom dancing. This is a subject I'm sure will fascinate all your readers. The characters are intriguing and three dimensional and I loved Tyana--a heroine I could care about--and so will the readers."

The Escort, Et Cetera...
Check out my third novel and meet Sebastién Marcelis, the sexy hunk and highly sought-after male escort of Chicago. His entourage consists of wealthy, beautiful and insatiable women of the Windy City who hunger for Sebastién's attention and keen ability to satisfy all their needs.
Meet Natalya Armanni, the beautiful angelic woman; art dealer and restaurant owner who gets the attention of Sebastién, creating a dilemma regarding his clandestine lifestyle. You will also meet some of Sebastién's clients: Carmen Spencer, the demure fashion model; Nina Elliot, the rich and very possessive socialite; and Anais. Ah, Anais... This book doesn't have enough pages to handle all the escapades with these and other women.
