LaConnie Taylor-Jones caught the romance world by storm with the unforgettable love story of Marcel and Caitlyn in her award-winning debut, When I’m With You, published by Genesis Press in 2007. Back by popular demand, LaConnie delivers another soul-stirring romance, When a Man Loves a Woman (Genesis Press, 2008, 1585712744, $6.99 US), that will have her fans and new readers cheering on the loveable and sexy Baptiste brothers and their special circle of friends.
A. J. Baptiste, doctor and single father to adorable twin girls, will stop at nothing to claim Victoria Bennett as his own. The only problem is, Victoria is not having it. She’s not interested in love, being in love, or being in a romantic relationship; especially a serious relationship with A. J. Baptiste. In fact, A. J., or Baptiste, as she calls him, irks her to no end. But when a terrible accident happens, Victoria finds herself rethinking her stance and thankfully A. J. is right there to catch her as she falls headlong into the sensual, romantic abyss of everlasting love.
For those who doubt the healing and restorative powers of love, When a Man Loves a Woman by LaConnie Taylor-Jones is a wonderful testament to those powers and more!

Nia Virtual Book Tours presents author Woody Campbell and debut release titled Fade to Black.
Who are we?
Who decided that we were “African Americans?” How did the world conclude that to be our designation? As children growing up we were called, with apparent acceptance “Colored people.” By the time the Civil Rights Movement was ushered in by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., we were elevated to the respectable status of “Negro.” In college, I saw us move to “Afro American” and then to the preferred “Black American,” which I thought represented the result of the efforts of slain martyrs like Medgar Evers and Dr. Martin Luther King, who perished so that we could be known as Black Americans. They died so that we could move forward and share in the fruits of our labor in America.
For many years, I have been troubled by the apparent fact that we as Black Americans of African descent—whose ancestors had not immigrated willingly to America—have been unable to settle on a definitive identity.
I am unable to understand why this has not been done before. I feel that there are thousands, if not millions of people who feel as I do but for some reason, perhaps the fear of expert opinion, have not demonstrated their opposition. For all of those people let me state without hesitation that I believe we are Black Americans of African descent. The African American designation is by definition and logic, a misrepresentation.

Nia Promotions presents author JJ Salem and his recent release Tan Lines.
During one unforgettable season at a Hamptons summer share, three women’s journeys unfold thrill by thrill and shock by shock, in this addictive story about the illusions of glamour, the dark side of success and the elusiveness of love.
Liza Pike–She’s the It Girl for topical feminist spin–beautiful, successful, and ferociously fearless. But as the media props her up to be the millennium’s new Gloria Steinem, she’s falling into all the old traps she cautions other women to avoid…
Kellyanne Downey–She’s been holding out for her big break as an actress while enduring a series of dead end jobs and playing mistress to a rich developer. But now she’s wondering why the phenomenal looks that were supposed to take her all the way are leading her to the edge of nowhere…
Billie Shelton–She’s the indie-rock bitch goddess with an appetite for self-destruction. Men are candy, drugs are fuel, girlfriends are disposable commodities, and in her world, looking out for number one is the only way to live…
Tan Lines portrays the passions, triumphs, and heartbreaks of modern women with a sly intelligence and wickedly sharp prose that will hook you to the last page.

Are You Fascinated?: The Four People You Need to Succeed, will challenge everyone who reads it to examine where they have been, where they are now and where they want to be in their life and career.
This book provides for each reader their own mini-revolution. This revolution is awakened by the personal stories, life-changing examples and opportunity for self-exploration that Ken offers. Are You Fascinated? is not for everyone . . . just that person who is fed up with the same old thing and hungry to do something positively new and different with their life.
When was the last time you took a real look at where you are and where you are going? Recently? Or has it been awhile? Are You Fascinated? provides practical strategies to ‘fire up’ the “fascination” that will energize you to clarify what it is you really want out of life, and provide you with practical tools to achieve your goals.
Take this fascinating trip with Ken. Really, what do you have to lose, except years of regret for not starting sooner? You can experience more and greater success. The time is now, and fascination, is the dynamic power that the four people who help you succeed, can and will use - If you are willing?
