      Dear Reader,

      I was excited to get the opportunity to write Vanessa Dawson’s story, A Model Spy, in Silhouette Bombshell’s THE IT GIRLS continuity. Tough, yet beautiful and vulnerable, Vanessa Dawson kicks butt and tries to deal with her family, an evolving relationship and past demons returning to haunt her. For me, this effort represents a significant departure from the traditional idea of a series book as far as tone and content, while also incorporating a strong, competent heroine who is an African-American heiress and ex-supermodel.

      The groundbreaking doesn’t stop there, either. My heroine has past issues that affect her ability to do her assignment and she gets to choose her hero from a sexy DEA agent and a handsome hip-hop music mogul who came up from the Miami street gangs, not unlike people you find in the news today. I enjoyed listening to the hip-hop music and reading about the roads the artists traveled to fame and fortune and the problems many face. I hope I managed to impart a little of that flavor in this book.

      believes that a woman can do anything she sets her mind to. To date she has met her personal goals of becoming an electrical engineer working in the field, obtaining her master’s degree in business administration and getting published. Happily married to her high school sweetheart, she lives in the Detroit area with him and their two boys. She has several romance novels under her belt, and is ecstatic over the launch of Silhouette Bombshell, which gives her characters new worlds to conquer. An avid fan of fiction, television and movies that showcase powerful women with strong skills and talents in a male-dominated world, she is happy to add her heroines, CIA agent Reese Whittaker and model-spy Vanessa Dawson, to the list.

      I’d like to dedicate this book to my wonderful family.

      Thanks for all your love and support!
