A Love For All Times

Angela Moore and Brandon Knight learn that savoring the natural highs of falling in love, first kisses, sweet dreams, and making love are not the only formula for love. They learn that true love also faces even the lewdest of schemes, ego tripping, and yes, a threat on their lives. But both Angela and Brandon fight to keep what is theirs. The blissful passionate filled days and nights they spend together are testaments that true love still arises in the most commonplaces. After all true love is for a lifetime.

Priceless
ISBN: 9780979282393
February 2008

A high profile job paying six figures as a result of three college degrees and several state certifications, a sporty car and a pricy condo in the inner city purchased with the interest from a trust fund, three terrific sister-girlfriends who are there when you need them and even when you don't, recognition from peers and the community by giving up time, money, and service, a love that will last a life time, priceless.

Coming soon... GUMBO LOVE, DESTINED, and A HIDDEN AGENDA

 February/March 2007

A Fresh Encounter
is segmented into five sections: Devotion, Praise, Purpose, Reflection, and Temple
. The Devotions are topical readings framed by passages from scriptures in both the Old and New Testament. Praise is a collection of poems and short verses. Some of them rhyme while others are just words and phrases meant to reveal innermost thoughts and prayers. Purpose is meant to draw attention to our daily living - our time, energy, money, and talents. Reflection speaks to life lessons. It deals with hurt and disappointments, and how to experience God on a daily basis. The Temple consists of awareness-based readings about how we view and treat our temples. Some of them are more like short features or articles that are intended to stir consciousness on topics of health and our physical being.

If you value words that soothe your soul, warm your heart and speak to your spirit, A Fresh Encounter makes a powerful impact.

Cupid plays a vital role in the celebration of love, especially in Cupid's Connections.  Piercing the hearts of lovers seems befitting even when love is new or has been tested a time or two.  Sometimes Cupid comes in all shapes and sizes, as in the case of Patron of the Heart.  Still often when love is tarnished by faithlessness and hidden agendas, Cupid has to work extra hard to pierce his victims hearts.  In the end they throw caution to the wind and fall deeply in love again. In When Love Calls, Cupid's job is compounded by situations believed to be beyond repair.  Only Cupid, armed with bow and arrow, can right the wrong by stirring in small miracles to this love potion and proving that love can mend even hopeless situations. And of course, occasionally Cupid is faced with desires for love with no strings attached.  Somehow the two don't mix.  Like playing with fire, playing at love burns its victims every time.  Two Lobsters on a Buffet proves that there is no such thing as casual love, and that sometimes love can be found in unsuspecting places, including a dinner buffet.  Be careful.  The tongs bite!
Cupid knows best, the remedy, the spice. And in Cupid's Connections, he stirs love connections just right!
