2006-04-05 An anthology where every story is a winner

I bought this book primarily because I really love Brenda Jackson's writing but the other authors in this anthology do not disappoint. This is high calibre writing from black romance authors, and if you love romance where none of the characters are described with annoying descriptions of their skin shades such as, 'chocolate' or 'cafe au lait'. If you want to read romances with believable characters who are black, beautiful and successful, then buy this book and settle down for a good read.
