Product Description
Though her Lexus may be broken down on the California freeway, Jessi Teresa Blake is no damsel in distress. Rich, smart, and beautiful, JT, or "Lady Blake," as she is called, is one of the toughest sports agents around. She's negotiated megabucks contracts for every superstar in the business, and only the most confident of men can match wits with her. Men like Reese Anthony, the impossibly sexy trucker who gives her a lift back to Oakland.

She does it again!! September 7, 2008
Ms. Jenkins does it again. She makes the historical familial connection with her previous characters. It is good to see their offspring. This book will capture your attention and heart. You will be a champion of the relationship between JT and Reese. As always, Ms. Jenkins brings out the suspence, the drama, the conflict and of course the love.
 Good Read August 29, 2008
Deadly Sexy
I encourage readers to read all of Ms. Beverly's books. However, I give this book a three star. It was an okay read for me. I wasn't too enamored with it for the following reasons:
Pet Peeves:
I remember clearly in her description of Reese she described him as being 5'10". However on page 270, she says "She took him in, all six-foot-plus glorious inch of him." She is referring to Reese.
I also remember clearly her referring to Misha, her tech person, as a Nigerian. Later on page 221, she writes "She, the sheltered, twenty-one year old, nerd daughter of a British family with roots in Jamaica, had been immediately drawn to him."
The inconsistencies really rubbed me the wrong way. Characterizations are very important and stick with me as I am reading. When there is a glaring inconsistency, my attention is caught immediately.
This book isn't a bad book and some readers may not even notice, but I expect to be taken seriously as a reader and for her work to make sense. Ms. Beverly is a good storyteller, and I love the incorporation of history. However, as a reader, I cannot tolerate such sloppiness in her work.
These are my reasons for giving the work a three star. Otherwise, I would have given the book a solid 4 star.
