Making Love Last exposes added layers of conflicting feelings from the characters of the first novel, Love ‘n Time, highlighting the many obstacles they encounter while making and keeping their romantic connections.

He’s a powerful man in the court room but a babbling idiot with women; that is until he meets the lovely Erion. Will Criminal Attorney Victor Rowe finally win the heart of the only woman he’s ever loved at first sight? He seems to think his charm is enough to reel her in to his arms but will her sordid past put a halt to this story book romance?

Is it possible for one man to be in love with two women … at the same time? DaRon Mitchell didn’t think so until it happened to him. His tangled life with his childhood girlfriend and his college sweetheart was going smoothly until a near tragic experience makes him a changed man. He realizes it’s time to settle down and commit to one woman. But the one who get’s the boot doesn’t go away so easily.

Taleed Wallace fought the mother of his son in and out of the courts so that he could be a father without having so much distance between the two of them. Even though he despises her decision to have the child, he finds himself protecting Candice from the physical abuse inflicted on her by her boyfriend. But, Taleed has a secret that constantly he can’t share with his friends now.

Where Did We Go Wrong? is my newly released romantic suspense novel. It is about best friends Gabby, Maxine and Joy who protect each other at all costs, even if it means keeping secrets that turn their lives upside down.

Gabby has no boundaries when it comes to getting what she wants. She pulls out every trick in the book to keep her daughter’s married father out of their lives but keep his money in her bank account.

Maxine lives for her family. When her husband’s excessive spending lands them in more debt than they can handle, the stress takes a toll on their perfect marriage.

After Joy’s loyalty to her controlling mother causes her to lose the only man she’s ever loved, she marries a man she barely knows. When the wedding is over, she quickly realizes she made the biggest mistake of her life and puts everybody she loves in danger.

Unfortunately, someone will have to pay the ultimate price with their life.
