Detroit natives, Julia Kelly and Cortez Wallace shared an incredible love
affair…once. Inside the bedroom they were two people with a common goal:
pleasure. Outside the bedroom, they couldn’t have been more different. Julia
was outspoken, opinionated, and full of spontaneity. Cortez was more
reserved- quiet, observant and at times brooding. Still, he loved Julia more
than any woman he had ever known. Her sexy, exciting persona and quick
wit never left him wanting.
Unfortunately, the relationship for all its zest and sensuality was also full of
drama and hurt feelings. Julia, an accomplished television producer and force
in her field had never quite measured up in the eyes of Cortez’s family. Their
outlook had only been one set back in their relationship. Still, it was a major
one. Julia wanted nothing more than to leave Detroit and continue their
careers elsewhere. Cortez however had just been offered the head news
anchor spot at his station. He had no desire to leave and wanted Julia to stay.
Not surprising, Julia was stubborn when it came to what she wanted. She
knew they would never be truly happy as long as his socially ensconced
family saw her as less than appropriate. She did not force Cortez to choose
then because she was too afraid of what he would choose. She left Detroit for
Los Angeles vowing to never return.
Then, rumors begin to rumble about possible nuptials between two popular
Detroit broadcasters. The rumors were without merit as far as Cortez was
concerned. His family however was another story and what they wanted
most was a union between the co-anchors.
Julia of course was ruled by her wants as well and what she wanted now was
to know if Cortez was truly in love. Was this the woman of his dreams or
was she simply the most appropriate choice? Cortez Wallace had never been
a man to allow his actions to be ruled by anyone. Aside from his rugged good
looks and devastating sex appeal, he was charming, intelligent, and idealistic
but always open to the opinions of others. Julia knew the power his family
wielded though. She could not rest until she knew if these rumors were true.
She heads back to Detroit, intent on one last meeting with the only man she
had ever loved. She tells herself she’s a fool, but acknowledges that she’s
being ruled by emotions too strong to be ignored. She had to see Cortez again.
She had to know if her leaving had irrevocably closed the doors for them or
whether the man she wanted-wanted her just as much.
The New Historical Romance The novel takes place in Charleston, South Carolina decades before the War Between the States. Using the Denmark Vesey rebellion of 1822 as the backdrop, a sensuous, adventuresome tale is weaved. |

consequences of Malik's pride will have him fighting to
save his life-life with the only woman he would ever love.
