What happens when one woman decides to explore her every desire? My fifteenth novel, PLEASURE (Dutton, April 1, 2008, $24.95), dares to explore that very question.  Filled with sexual energy, PLEASURE centers around a woman who struggles with the old-school concept that one man should be able to meet all of her physical and emotional needs—it’s a book that sizzles with the heat of sex, love, jealousy, and obsession.

Nia Simone Bijou is a woman who has it all—and is driven by the desire for more. She sets out on an exploration of her innermost fantasies, and embarks on three passionate and forbidden affairs. Each lover teaches Nia valuable lessons about herself and her desires—but how long can Nia play with fire without getting burned?  

Publishers Weekly called the book “a steamy romance” that “delivers its message that saying ‘yes’ to pleasure can also lead to self-enlightenment,” while Kirkus Reviews raved that PLEASURE ”will leave you hot and bothered.”

Pulsing with an erotic beat more daring than anything you’ve seen in my previous novels, PLEASURE will keep you turning page after steamy page. Sit back and enjoy PLEASURE!
