Her Little Black Book was a wonderful read. The emotional rollercoaster Courtney was on was very real and I wanted her relationship with Lake to work out. If you want to read a mature book with lots of romance and funny moments this is the book for you!

You will not be disappointed with this book, you will get to catch with all of the Masters. I tell Brenda's has several stories going on in this book. You will meet the parents of Courtney and Sonya's (Courney cousin).

Courtney Andrews is at the wedding of her cousin (Sonya) and it wondering if she will ever have what her cousin has. She is 29-year-old single, and a not real big on marriage since her parent married for 30 years, and Courtney has witness nothing but infidelity from her father and her Uncle Joe during that time. Courtney and Sonya both have issue with trust and with fathers like that anybody would. But Sonya hit the mother load and found a man who loves her completed and she trust him with her HEART, Mike will just make you melt. Sonya know what Courtney is going through and she give her the legendary black book. That is where the fun comes in for courtney, but the reader are going to enjoy the men she meet.

Now meet Lake Masters reader if you rememeber those Master trust me when I say Lake is no difference boy oh boy is the man fine. Lake sees Courtney from a far and is taken with her from the beginning but being a Master he make it his business to find out about her, and he get his chance when Brandy throws a welcome home party and of course Lake Masters is invited.

Lake Master is older, handsome and is second oldest of the Masters men and the only one not married. Lake is mature and don't like a drama. Grey Master see how much Lake is interest in Courtney and often to introduce them but Lake being Lake tell him no and that he does not want any of his sisters-in-law to interfer. Lake make the decision to meet Courtney on his own and that just what he does. Ladies you talking about a MAN wiht confidence that is LAKE. He knows what he want and he goes after it. It take Lake no time to figure out that Courtney is the one for him but convnce Courtney they are meant to be.

You will not be able to put this book down once you begin reading it.

This book was excellent as I expect from any BJ book. I hope there is going to be a sequel!

Courtney Andrews is a 29-year-old single, attractive woman who is not sure that she will ever find true love. Her parents have been married for 30 years, and Courtney has witness nothing but infidelity from her father and her Uncle Joe during that time. Both men have shown her and her soon-to-be-married cousin Sonya Morrison how not to trust men. Sonya is tough, going through men like water and does not have a shameful bone in her body. She finds the man of her dreams and gives up the belief that all men are like their parents. She accepts love and decides to go ahead and give marriage a try. Passing her legendary black book to Courtney to help her get the ball rolling on finding her dream man, Sonya makes Courtney promise to call some of the men and go on dates.

After the wedding, Courtney decides she will call a few of the men. Disaster after disaster has Courtney questioning whether she is able to find a decent man, or if she should throw that little black book away and give up altogether. Sonya and her new husband return to the states for a welcome home party thrown by one of Sonya's closest friends Brandy Masters. Also attending the party is Brandy's brother in-law Lake Masters.

Lake Master is a 39-year-old successful, handsome man who is the second oldest of the Masters men and the only one not married. Married to his job with a "no tolerance level" for drama, Lake only deals with women on an "as needed" basis. Spotting Courtney on her way to work one day, Lake knows he has to find out who that woman is that has his mind all in a blur. Meeting at Sonya's welcome home party, Lake tries to convince Courtney they are meant to be on their first meeting. Courtney thinks Lake is completely out of his mind, but the way her body is responding to this man has her questioning if she is the one out of her mind and not Lake! Going on their first date has both Courtney and Lake all shook up. Deciding she would give it a try with Lake, Courtney can't believe he is really all the things she's ever wanted in a man.

I must say, Brenda Jackson once again delivers a wonderful love story that has you questioning if there really are men out here like the characters she creates in her novels. This isn't necessarily a continuation of the Masters series; however, the main character is a Masters brother. I enjoyed reading about the new characters added on and reading a little about the old characters. One thing that Ms. Jackson did come with was the Drama! I think anyone will enjoy Her Little Black Book.

Great read as Mrs Jackson usually does, what can I say about her that I haven't said before. And this book is no exception. I really enjoyed the romance between Lake and Courtney, and I loved the fact that the man knew exactly what and who he wanted, and did what he had to do to get her. It was nice catching up with the Savvy Sista's and even Faith and Shane (What a Woman Wants). I liked the twists in the story and some parts made me hoppin' mad ( now that's a good book). It was a 1-day read ( as all her books are) but nevertheless, Great Book !!!!!
