The Edge of Midnight May 27, 2008
I have read all of Beverly Jenkins' books that I can find, the historical as well as the drama. She is an awesome writer and keeps you in suspense. Her plots are well thought out and well written. Her love scenes are tender and erotic. I am going to ensure that my granddaughter reads all of her books so she will know how a man should treat a woman. How a black man should treat a woman. She is great. I can't wait for more of her books.
loved it! February 17, 2008
This book had my heart racing. Sarita is a very strong, compassionate, stubborn, plainspoken, and driven woman. She is the epitome of a strong black woman. She and Mykal are perfect for each other. What a man, what a man that Mykal is. All I can do is *sigh.* When they are together, it's like the sun meeting the sky, very intense and beautiful. Read this book and you will see a very powerful suspenseful love story unfold.
***Who's Afraid Of The Big Bad Wolf!!!*** February 6, 2008
Man I wish I read this trilogy in order. Anyway I enjoyed this novel alot although the storyline didn't have the fast-paced, edge of your seat excitement that "Dawn" had. Here's another woman that's strong, independent and full of class and here's a man that's arrogant, bossy, kinda full of himself..and they make a dynamite couple. There were two incidents in the story that made laugh out loud: the part where Mykal threw Sarita over his shoulder while she was kicking and screaming and smacked her on the behind all while the members of NIA watched, then further along in the story Mykal took Sarita shopping at an upscale mall for lingerie but she wanted to go to Sears instead. The secondary characters were interesting and fun and at the end of the book where Mykal's grandmother makes an appearance was endearing. Well, two super fine (half) brothers down (Mykal & Saint) one more to go (Drake).
 I just love Beverly Jenkins September 23, 2007

I can't help it. I love Beverly Jenkins. She truly knows how to write. Whether it's historical romance or contemporary romance she knows how to tell a story. I can't say enough about her. She's awesome. I love how she ties in her historical characters to the present characters, that makes it even better to me. I have almost all of her books and I love them all. Keep it up Beverly.
Wonderful... Wonderful... Wonderful!!! July 6, 2007

If you have not read any thing by Beverly Jenkins, then this can be a great place to start. Sarita Grayson is the director of a Detroit Community Center that is on the verge of being closed due to lack of money. Sarita decides to help a local drug dealer that ultimately puts her in danger in more ways than one. Mykal Chandler is artichete, rich and handsome. He is also the head of a covert government operation called NIA. Little did Sarita or Mykal know that their paths would cross and the fireworks that ignite.
This is the first in a series of contemporary novels written by Ms. Jenkins. It is part mystery and romance novel that will keep you on the edge of your seat. She has given each character unique flavor, sass and humor that guides the story. She also included history and connection to favorites from the historical novels. No one has mastered a love scene in quite that same way as Ms. Jenkins has.
This is the fourth time I have read this book and each time I find something new and exciting. !!! Thanks Ms. Bev.
Peace and Blessings!!
