After waiting for what seemed like forever to get a marriage commitment from her fiancé, Rossi Evans, Micah Abraham’s wedding day has finally arrived. There is only one thing wrong . . . Micah won’t be there. Micah has long since reached the peak of her frustration and unbeknownst to Rossi, he’s already been dismissed. But instead of declining his proposal, Micah happily moves forward . . . with hidden intentions. By the time Rossi realizes that he’s been left standing at the altar, Micah is in Charlotte, North Carolina, easing into a tub of warm bubbles, enjoying a glass of wine and leafing through her favorite magazine. When Micah and Rossi’s paths cross again, Micah is caught totally off-guard by the situation and by the feelings that have been simmering deep inside her heart, despite her denial. Will Micah embrace love this second time around, having set it free the first time?
To the world, R&B Mega Star, Parris Mitchell has it all: fame, money, jewelry and several gold and platinum records to go along with it. But now, with her singing career declining, she struggles with depression. Her last few albums were disappointments not only to her record label because of low sales, but to her devoted fans. Casper Johnson is one of the hottest and most sought after producers in the music industry. All of the media attention has garnished “The Hit Maker” a playboy image. He’s getting tired of the same old sound and he’s looking for the right voice to help take his career to the next level. Parris agrees to give Casper a chance to revive her career. When they get together, their working relationship quickly crosses the line and their drama from groupies and people from their pasts becomes the source of plenty of print for the paparazzi.
There is a saying in New Orleans about the Cajun Moon—it’s a bad moon rising, and when it’s in the sky, your life can be changed in an instant. Sassy Crillon never believed in the old folks’ tales. She believed in what was real, and real for her was to be in love with Roulon Robespierre. She built her world around him and their five-year relationship. But on one fateful cajun moonlit night, she catches him doing the unthinkable. Now she is left alone, without him. As Sassy learns to enjoy her newfound freedom from “Roux,” she can’t help but wonder if she will ever find true love. Aiden is a rich, successful native Louisanaian who has practically everything—except for true love. There is only one woman he has ever loved. He wants to tell her, but other things and other people keep getting in the way. Still, he is determined to reveal his true feelings. He is just waiting for the chance to tell her in person. When Sassy meets Aiden on a trip to San Francisco, their worlds collide. Will Sassy find love with Aiden, and will Aiden reveal his secrets to her about his one true love?
While other ten year-olds were marrying their Barbie to their Ken dolls, Monica had her Barbie cruising in her pink corvette with loads of great things in the car and not a Ken in sight. From that age until now, after Monica saw the heartache her mother endured when her father walked out, Monica always told herself that she didn’t need a man to complete her. Fast forward to the present and Monica has lived up to her goal. She is a successful executive at an advertising firm, making serious money and living the life that she always wanted. She credits all her success to having stayed “man-free” but all of that changes after one Friday night. That’s when Marshawn comes into her life. Now, everything she has fought so hard to avoid most of her life will be the very thing she fights so hard to keep. Kamryn Donavan is a native of Lake Charles, Louisiana. She now resides in Los Angeles, California with her two sons. GETTING LUCKY is Kamryn's first novel.
