SHAMELESS HOODWIVES
BY MEESHA MINK/DE'NESHA DIAMOND

The women of Desperate Housewives and The Real Housewives of New York City have nothing on the shameless ladies of Atlanta's Bentley Manor. This follow-up to Desperate Hoodwives finds Miz Cleo and Miz Osceola still reigning over an enclave haunted by poverty and crime, and there's plenty to talk about. Miz Cleo's crack-addicted granddaughter, Takiah Ray, and her baby, Tanana, return to Bentley to get away from Takiah's husband, who has begun pimping her out. Jamillah Princess Unger, long abused by her mother and a string of deadbeat men, may be able to use her musical talent to finally break free. Keisha Williamson, an aspiring beautician, cares for four children while her husband, Smokey, struggles with drug addiction, and Keisha seeks dangerous solace in his brother's arms. Woo Woo Moore moves to the burbs after marrying a dentist, but an affair with a drug dealer from the hood may destroy her new life. Mink and Diamond tell it like it is with breathless passion.

SEDUCTION BY GENEVA HOLLIDAY


Berenice McFadden's latest erotic melodrama written as Holliday (following Heat) opens on Tony Landry's taking a woman named Valerie back to his borrowed pad, with his lies coming on quicker than her sighs of pleasure. The novel's focus, however, is ugly duckling Mildred Johnson, a lonely investment banking secretary living in a tiny Crown Heights, Brooklyn, studio. When handsome Tony, $60,000 in debt and looking for a big score, joins the company, she secretly falls for him; when he starts paying attention to her, she can scarcely believe her luck. Holliday, meanwhile, playfully lets readers in on Tony's money laundering scam that depends on his seduction of Mildred, who is a caricature of innocence and suppressed longing. When she catches on, the novel morphs into a makeover-revenge fantasy, one that Holliday writes with barely suppressed glee. The more wild and outlandish things get, the more readers will smile.

CHRISTIAN PREDATORS

I find it interesting how we are taught to watch out for strangers for they may take advantage of us. I had to ask myself: When do you really know someone? What is it about a person that allows you to open the door to let them in your life? The first thought that came to my mind is we tend to lower our guards based on titles. In this world if you are a Christian, Minister, Doctor, Teacher, Celebrity, Father, Mother, etc., we will shift our inner gears to see what you are about based on badges we… Continue

SWEET EMBRACE

As I observe life and the difficulties we face expressing and sharing our need to be loved, I find it quite interesting that most of us single people deny what we need the most. Think about it, we can be independently strong and create a home filled with peace. We can even physically satisfy ourselves if that need be so. But there is something that we can not do for ourselves. And, that something is what every living soul needs. Before I tell you what I feel it is, I want you to think about a… Continue
