    Hi Friend,
    My new book, ISLAND BEAUTY comes out today and I would love it if you would check it out and purchase a personalized copy. I would really appreciate your support. To purchase book or check out my other books please visit www.newworldpublish.webs.com Thank you and have a blessed day!

    “ISLAND BEAUTY is the best piece Marlene have ever written. She have really matured as a writer. I think it would even make a good movie. There is great suspense and conflict. Marlene shows life and how it really is, even when we think we have good friendships, life can throw us a curve ball. I really enjoyed reading her story it was great, the tone was good and it was exciting. Keep up the good work!”

    Gidorah Matthews Author Of:
    Methuselah's Rainbow
    The Secret Exposed: What Every Christian Should Know
    The Windowsill Children Series

    Sage Churchill has always had the best of everything, a loving father that gave her everything her heart desired and good friends to kick it with, which always made life more exciting. She thought her life was perfect, until the day her father makes a deathbed confession that shatters her world as she knows it.
    When Sage finds out that her mother, whom she was led to believe died, may be alive and living in Jamaica, her world is turned upside down. She is faced with the toughest decision of her life. Does she search for a woman she’s never known or does she ignore her longing for a mother’s love?
    Sage, Nicky, Tish, and Lace have been friends since pre-school. But their relationship suffers when they bring the drama to Sage’s doorstep. Her girl, Nicky, has gotten herself involved in the drug game and has Sage’s name all caught up in the mix, bringing the authorities to her door. Tish, has a mystery lover and when that person’s identity is revealed, it may tear the girls’ thirteen year friendship apart and possible cause one of them to lose their life.
    Will Sage find her mother and live happily ever after? Will she survive the drama? Or have a nervous breakdown?

    Hey sis, I just wanted to stop by to tell you how much I appreciate your support. You are a true friend and it is wonderful to meet someone who you instantly feel a connection. I can't tell you that it is too far and in between that sista gals like us rarely move in the same circles and stay that way. So please, keep in touch, I hope to one day say these same words to you face to face. Stay blessed sis...

    Dear Virgo: If you like to read any book that catched your eye, let me try to catch your eye with HUNTING THE KING. It happens to bemy book, so I admit bias. But still...The novel revolves around a charismatic young woman named Molly O’Dwyer. Molly was five years old when she witnessed her mother die in a fire. She never knew her father. After her mother’s death, she was raised on the campus of a Jesuit college. Now an archaeologist, she has been recruited to participate on a dig in war torn Iraq. As a scientist she is compelled to discover whatever or whoever is buried under the sands of ancient Babylon. As an observant Catholic, she is scared that whatever she finds will have devastating consequences for her faith. There is a wonderful YouTube book trailer well worth watching if you have the chance. If you do get to see, please let me know what you think. Thanks. Peter

    Growing up I hated my name because people would mispronounce. Now I help people through the process because I love it. Maturity is a blessing. LOL.

    Thanks for the friendship.

    Sorry I’ve been away so long. I’ve been entirely toooooo busy.

    Anywhooo, in your Black Romance group, we’ll be reading Protect and Serve by Gwyneth Bolton next and start discussing it on 10 Oct. Now go ahead and purchase Gwen’s book now, even if you plan on reading it late, because it is a Harlequin book and you know they can be difficult to find.

    Have you heard about all the fun we had at the 2008 Romance Slam Jam? Well that’s NOTHING compared to what’s coming in 2010.

    It’s Romance Slam Jam’s Crystal Anniversary! Our theme is Back to the Future with Rochelle Alers as our keynote speaker! Everyone is Welcome To Join the Romance Slam Jam Crystal Anniversary Celebration Cruise departing from Miami, Florida, Sunday April 10th, 2010.
