Nicole’s actions reveal a secret that can ruin Kendra’s marriage. Kendra’s once peaceful life has now been turned upside down by the one person she thought she could always trust. Consumed with rage, she decides to beat Nicole at her own game.
Hired at the same time, Carmell and Natina are fast friends learning to confide and trust in one another quickly. Natina has ulterior motives for seeking a friend in Carmell. Her intentions are soon revealed causing these close friends to become bitter enemies. Contending for the same man’s affections, these once friends now rivals use old tricks and new games to outwit one another.

Interview with Evelyn Palfrey
Posted by niapromotions on 16th June 2008
Nia Virtual Book Tours spotlighted Evelyn Palfrey and The Price of Passion in February. Here’s the synposis. Read it while your enjoy our discussion with Evelyn.
“Does it have a name?” Vivian asked Walter. What would be the proper question to ask her husband of nearly twenty years, when he brings home his illegitimate baby as casually as a bag of groceries? Although Walter’s frequent infidelities became increasingly obvious to Vivian, she struggled to accept them. After all, she reasoned, they came with the Mercedes, the beautiful house, and the prestige of being Mrs. Carlson, the Texas state representative’s better half. Having long since abandoned her attempts at motherhood, Vivian resigned herself to her law studies and a lonely existence as the perfect political wife in suburban Austin.Click here to get your copy now!!!

Interview with Author Anita Bunkley
Posted by niapromotions on 9th June 2008
Listen to our interview with author Anita Bunkley about her novel Between Goodbyes.
Synposis:
A story of survival, triumph, and the search for true love in sultry Miami, sophisticated New York, and the rugged mountains of Colorado. Three men desire her. Three men have claimed her. Which one will Niya Londres choose? As Niya carefully weighs her decision, she discovers that all she’s ever dreamed of might not be what she really wants…
Long, lean, and exotically beautiful, Afro-Cuban Niya Londres has achieved a great deal since coming to America ten years ago. Through talent and hard work, she climbed her way to the top of her glittering career as an exotic salsa dancer, and then as the star of a hit Broadway musical. Now she’s planning her lavish Acapulco wedding. There’s just one hitch — she hasn’t said “Yes” to any of the three men who are madly in love with her!
Tremont Henderson, a gifted jazz musician with a checkered past, was the first to capture Niya’s heart. He pulled her out of a Florida swamp and into his exciting world of hot music and sultry dance. Broadway producer and her long-time manager, Granger Cooper, fell in love with Niya at first sight and now holds a claim on her affections. She owes him everything, as the man who made her a star. And then there’s Astin Spencer, a tanned and devilishly sexy entrepreneur who calls the Nevada desert his home, and who unexpectedly comes into Niya’s life and turns everything upside down…..
