From the author of Crazy Love comes an oh-no-you-didn’t new novel about four friends on the adventure of a lifetime—a Caribbean cruise full of sun, fun, and more sexy escapades than they ever dreamed of!

At first all they have in common is yoga class. Then Blair, Lauren, Madison, and LaShawn start having dinner and drinks every week, and soon they’re close as sisters. Or so they say. But each woman has a scandalous secret.

Redheaded beauty Blair thinks her husband’s sleeping around. People-pleasing Lauren’s marriage has become a no-sex zone. Sex-crazed Madison’s father has dropped a bomb that seriously rocks her foundation. And innocent LaShawn, an engaged kindergarten teacher, is planning her dream wedding but fantasizing about a student’s dad.

When the girls finally get real with each other, they decide to go on a two-week Caribbean cruise on a ship full of single men. The object is 100% sexy fun. And everything that happens on the ship stays on the ship.

Language: English
ISBN: 1416527001

From a bright new voice in African-American women’s fiction comes a sexy, scandalous, and scintillating novel. Set in steamy Atlanta, Crazy Love follows two man-crazy best friends and roommates as they date—and sleep—their way to happily ever after.

Stacie Long thinks she’s God’s gift to men and she keeps a list of qualities (phat ride, no kids, freak in bed . . . ) that she’s looking for in an ideal mate. But behind all her confidence she’s got a secret—one that even her best friend doesn’t know about, one that may just keep her forever searching for her perfect man.

Tameeka Johnson is a successful businesswoman who owns one of Atlanta’s top wellness shops. But even with business booming, success in her bedroom is at an all-time low. Then, when she meets her black prince—a loving man who promises to treat her like gold—her insecurities about her sizeable body may just keep her from living the dream.

Stacie and Tameeka are super tight, but their friendship is tested by sexy
NBA players, baby mama drama, and temptations like they’ve never known before. Because if there’s one thing these girls like better than each other, it’s men.

Chuckling deeply, Denise looked up at her bedroom ceiling. “Lord, I know that you’ll send the right man to me when I’m ready for him. But please,” she said then rolled her eyes. “Don’t send me a—” Catching herself, Denise clamped her mouth shut, she was about to say something ugly and unnecessary. She reverently returned her gaze to the ceiling. “God, just  send me a good man.”

Sit back and enjoy as Denise Daniels, a BUMP (Black Upwardly Mobile Professional) gets her wish, as a fine chocolate-colored brother named Saadiq Sumners, a driver for UPS, enters her world. You’ll hate Denise, you’ll applaud her, and you’ll grow to love her as she comes to grips with loving a brother from a different socioeconomic class.
