Kiss the year goodbye with this sultry anthology... New Year's Eve is the time to make a naughty resolution, so shed your inhibitions and indulge in this sultry collection of escapades from four of the hottest writers around. In Brenda L. Thomas's "Every New Year," a shoot-out lands a respected doctor in the hospital with a bad case of amnesia, and in the care of a man too sexy to resist. In "Whatever It Takes" by Tu-Shonda L. Whitaker, a sassy older woman tries to break off her steamy relationship with her best friend's twenty-three-year-old son, but he shows her he's man enough to fulfill her needs. Crystal Lacey Winslow proves you can be "Dangerously in Love" when a prim and proper young woman's wild side takes over after the man she's dating slips up with another woman. In "My Boo" by Daaimah S. Poole, a Philly girl's long-distance boyfriend never has time for her -- not even around the holidays. So when her ex-roommate's latest lover comes knocking, she's ready to get the party started.
I really bought this book due to "Whatever It Takes". I really like the story because I can definitely relate. "Dangerously In Love" was another story altogether; I just kept having this feeling that Joy/Jovie were the same; but I kept reading the story hoping that perhaps the ending was different; Old dog(London)thought with his johnson on that; then in "My Boo", why would it take for you to go half way across the country to realize that the person you are with was not for you? Interesting read.
Good Job!!!!!

I have always said that I am not into short stories but many authors have made me take that back. Every story in this book was well done well written and just plain good. Tu-shonda writes about and older woman who starts dating her friend's son. Brenda writes about a doctor who gets shot and loses her memory. She then meets another doctor when she is in the hospital who tries to help her get her memory back. Daiimah writes about a long distance relationship. Crystal writes about a man who is wronged who doesn't want a relationship but ends up in one anyway with a stalker. Enough said well worth your money.
YOU FOUR LADIES RULE!

Tu-Shonda's, "Whatever it Takes" was absolutely hilarious! I'm a huge fan of Tu-Shonda. Her writing skills are magnificent. Brenda's "Every New Year" was pretty good. I wanted just a little bit more to happen at the end. "Dangerously in Love" was spooky to say the least. Crystal did a brilliant job writing this one. I loved her other two books as well. I can't wait until Sex, Sin & Brooklyn II is released. Daaimah S. Poole's, "My Boo" was good too. Those long distance relationships can be awful.
Every Year Can't Be A Good Year....

But, "Kiss the Year Goodbye" was mos def the year to be in! My girl, Tu-Shonda has spun a believeable tale of "age ain't nuthin but a number." Tu-Shondastyle was fo' sho' a smart move in bringing hers to the forefront. I didn't think she could spring forth another as good as Uncle Boy..., (you veteran Tu-Shonda fans know what I'm talkin' bout!), but I was wrong! She did it up with a bunch of laughs, lust, and it is mos def lyrically correct. This is one that she needs to finish the birthing stage fo' real. Tu-Shonda, take notes, your fans are calling you out girlfriend! Readers, don't hate, wait, just pick up your copy and don't be late. Brenda Thomas'and Daaimah S. Poole's stories were also good reads. Crystal Lacey Winslow took you to a whole diffent level! If you like Sybil, go for it! Good job ladies! Continue to bless us with super writing!
Goodbye Yesteryear!!!!!

This book was excellent. This was the first time I've read a book by Tu-Shonda L.Whitaker, but she is truly a gifted writer. Her book focuses on the relationship between a younger man and a older woman, it was good from beginning to end. Brenda L. Thomas's book was good, it could have ended differently, but maybe that means the story will continue. Her story focuses on a doctor that ends up in the hospital, and develops feelings for the doctor that's attending to her. Crystal L. Winslow's book was very good, it focuses on a female that has some serious mental issues, but devolps a relationship with a guy who has been hurt before. The ending will suprise you. Daaimah S. Poole's book was good also, it was the story of a female and male involved in a long distance relationship, when the female starts to feel lonely she seeks pleasure outside the relationship, and soon learns, sometimes what you need is right in front of your face, if you just exercise a little patients.
