Just Too Good To be True by E. Lynn Harris
Currently Reading:
Sleeping with Strangers by Eric Jerome Dickey |
Most fun city to visit:
Atlanta - I love night life. I like to boogie. I'm crazy about Atlanta. Still considering a second residence there. If I weren't an author, I'd definitely be an entrepreneur in the erotica industry. What capacity? I'm not sure. |
