"A Little Sumthin' Sumthin' Hits Stores!

Author Releases New Novel-“A Little Sumthin Sumthin”

Nationwide (February  13, 2012) - In A Little Sumthin’ Sumthin,’ by Imani True, readers learn that nothing is what it seems behind closed doors.  The story chronicles the life of the main character, Fatimah Briggs, as she tries to rebound from twenty-plus years of abuse at the hands of her husband Malcolm.  But that won’t be easy when she’s faced with Malcolm’s indiscretions, his horrible secret, and a few “little white lies” of her own. From cover to cover, this novel is filled with drama, twists, and painful revelations of undeniable truth.
“True”, the alter-ego of C. Highsmith-Hooks, is a native of Hempstead, New York, and a previously-published author.  She began her writing career in 2010, and is currently promoting the new book while working on her next novel.
Here’s what readers are saying:
“Heart wrenching, believable, and realistic. Fatimah is a character whose struggles with infidelity, dishonesty, and loyalty touch the hearts of all who have encountered or been involved in similar situations.  I found myself relating in more ways than one. A definite must-read!”  ~ By Lashonda  Beard (Atlanta GA)
A Little Sumthin’ Sumthin’ is an emotional page turner full of internal struggle and hard decisions.  In the end, it tells a story of how true love answers all questions.”   ~By Sylvia S. Ellerbe (Orlando FL)
“ALSS is a page turner!  A gripping suspense filled with witty and raw emotions that will have you begging for more!”~By Stacey (Bonaire GA)

"A Little Sumthin Sumthin" Released on Kindle!

In the last week or so, my first novel was released on Kindle. The wait is over!

About the Book:
How do you start over when you never thought you’d have to?
Meet Fatimah Briggs. She's tired of the games, tired of the lies, tired of her husband.
Malcolm has spent his entire marriage thinking of only himself and getting “a little sumthin sumthin” on the side. Plus, when he’s angry, he lashes out at the one person who’s always believed in him, even when it tore her heart to pieces.
But after one confrontation too many, Fatimah decides that enough is enough. When her bruises heal, she refuses to return home, choosing to start a new life without Malcolm.
Enter Xiomara, the badass CEO of Stallworth Global who always gets what she wants. And what she wants is Malcolm’s ex.
That’s when Fatimah has to face some truths of her own, and finally take charge of things.
But while Xiomara may be impressed, it seems more than a few people aren’t going to like the new and improved Fatimah who speaks her mind and stands up for herself.  Even against her ex-husband.

And for Malcolm, that's a big problem.
ALSS is a story about starting over, finding strength when you thought you had none, and accepting what is. It’s a tale of karma, truth, and survival because sometimes, what goes around, really does come around.
And for Fatimah, the trick will be staying alive long enough to see it happen.  
Available NOW in e-book for the Kindle Reader and other devices. Coming soon in paperback and e-book for all other e-readers.

Reality, Dreams and Nightmares by Gaiven Clairmont

I absolutely LOVE Erotica written by men, and this man is among my top 5 or 6 writers in the genre (I'm hoping to get my chance to interview the others someday).

In Reality, Dreams, and Nightmares, Gaiven tells a tale of infidelity, and what it can lead to.

Kimberly is married to Ricardo, a mechanical engineer who's great at his job, but work takes him away from home for far too many nights. This leaves Kimberly to accept the strain that Ricardo's absence puts on the marriage-especially their sex life. And while she's never strayed from the marital bed, on occassion, she has put herself in situations that tempted her fidelity.

Christopher is Ricardo's loyal friend and co-worker who begrudges his marriage, and is definitely attracted to Kimberly.

Reality, Dreams, and Nightmares is a story of what happens when Kimberly's reality, dreams, and nightmares merge to become something she never imagined. Or ever intended.

And ultimately, for her, once she crosses that line, it becomes nearly impossible to tell where one ends and the others begin.

"I Just Want to Live My Life, Malcolm!"

How do you start over when you never thought you’d have to?
Fatimah is tired. Tired of the games, tired of the lies, tired of her husband.
Malcolm has spent his entire marriage thinking of only himself and getting “a little sumthin sumthin” on the side. Plus, when he’s angry, he lashes out at the one person who’s always believed in him, even when it tore her heart to pieces.
But after one confrontation too many, Fatimah decides that enough is enough. When her bruises heal, she refuses to return home, choosing to start a new life without Malcolm.
That’s when Fatimah has to face some truths of her own, and finally take charge of the situation.
But more than a few people aren’t going to like the new and improved Fatimah.
And dealing with “a little sumthin sumthin” may prove to be far more than anyone should be expected to handle.
ALSS is a story about starting over, and finding strength when you thought you had none. It’s a tale of karma, truth, and survival because sometimes, what goes around, really does come around.
For Fatimah, the trick will be staying alive long enough to see it happen.
