Wow! What a blast! The Way You Tempt Me turned out to be one of my favorites. I had so much fun writing Xavier and Zara. There is just something special about a friends-to-lovers journey that sends a rush through my veins. And the colorful cast of characters . . . I found myself laughing throughout the process as I put their antics on the page. I really hope you loved them as much as I did. I appreciate all of your love and support.
Giving honor to God, Who is able to do anything. His Grace and Mercy brought me through. I am living this moment because of Him.
To my husband, Jason, I can’t imagine my life without you. Thank you for tempting me all those years ago.
To my children, Asante, Kaia, and Masai, I love you all so very much. Keep being who you are. Keep God first.
To my family and friends, thank you for your unwavering support. My life is brighter because of you. Thanks for being #TeamElle!
To my sis, Sheryl Lister, you already know. I’m so grateful for you. Love you!
To my lit sistas, Sherelle Green, Anita Davis, and Angela Seals—let’s get it. I can’t wait to do more. Love y’all!
To my Book Euphoria ladies, you are #SoDope.
To #EllesBelles, my street team, thank you so much for rocking with me.
I also want to thank Beverly Jenkins for extending a lifeline that I’ll always hold on to.
