    Anybody out there? Update & Cover Reveal

    Hey peeps! Are you still here? Am I still here? Well thankfully I am and I sure hope you are. It’s been so long since I did a check in over on ye old blog and I’ll let you know I feel sufficiently guilty for it. But my Twitter and Instagram @kwanawrites, sometimes Facebook and now even Tiktok, also @kwanawrites (to the horror of my dear twins) has been pulling my attention.

    But I wanted to chime in and say thanks for all the support with HOW TO MARRY KEANU REEVES IN 90 DAYS which has been such a joy to release and promote so far. It’s gotten a star review from Publisher Weekly (my 1st ever!) and was one of Amazon’s Best Romances of 2021!

    I also want to let you know about the cover of my upcoming book 2 in the REAL MEN KNIT series called KNOT AGAIN which will be out on July 26th and is up for preorders now. Isn’t it beautiful!

    Real Men Do Knit … Cover reveal and excerpt!

    Oh yes, they do and I wrote a whole romance about it!

    The cover of my May 2020 novel under the other me Kwana Jackson has finally been revealed and I could not be happier!

    Isn’t it just gorgeous? There was also an exclusive excerpt, sneak peep over at Frolic Media. Click here to check it out.  I think it perfectly conveys the humor and sexiness REAL MEN KNIT out May 19th 2020 from Berkley Romance.

    Real men Knit cover -RMK (2)

    When their foster-turned-adoptive mother suddenly dies, four brothers struggle to keep open the doors of her beloved Harlem knitting shop.

    Jesse Strong is known for two things: his devotion to his adoptive mom, Mama Joy, and his reputation for breaking hearts. When Mama Joy unexpectedly passes away, he and his brothers have different plans on what to do with Strong Knits, their neighborhood knitting store. Jesse wants to keep the store open. His brothers want to tie off loose ends and close shop…

    Part-time shop employee, Kerry Fuller has kept her crush on Jesse a secret. When she overhears his impassioned plea to his brothers to keep the knitting shop open, she volunteers to help. Unlike Jesse, Kerry knows the knitty-gritty of the business and together they make plans to reinvent Strong Knits for a new generation.

    But the more time they spend together, the stronger the chemistry builds between them. Kerry, knowing Jesse’s history, doesn’t believe their relationship can last longer than one can knit one, purl two. But Jesse is determined to prove to her that he can be the man for her forever and always—after all, real men knit.

    How Sweet It Is… AS GOOD AS THE FIRST TIME Cover Reveal!

    *bites nails, holds breath then presses send*

    Yep, that’s me with excitement and trepidation about to reveal my cover for

    AS GOOD AS THE FIRST TIME: Book one in my new Sugar Lake Series, releasing October 30th, 2018!

    I hope you all love it. This is something entirely new for me. Kinda like my new glasses and my new braids, but lots more permanent and subject to just a smidge more public scrutiny given how rarely I get out of the house.

    But that’s a story for another day. When I come to AS GOOD AS THE FIRST TIME this city girl is hitting the road and leaving The Big Apple behind (seriously, my heroine hits the road) and heading to the fictional, southern Town of Sugar Lake, Georgia for this deliciously sweet romance.

    TA-DA!!!!!

    As good As The First Time (1) cover med

    True to its name, the small southern town of Sugar Lake is a sweet place to visit—and you might even want to live there . . .

    With her big city career and relationship in sudden free fall, Olivia Gale isn’t sure where she belongs. So when her help is needed at Goode N’ Sweet, the family bakery in Sugar Lake, she jumps at the chance to indulge her pie-making hobby while getting her life back on track. Olivia’s not looking for any distractions. Even if the boy who once left her without a word is now a grown man with intriguing secrets—and the same tempting hold on her heart . . .

    A firefighter and single dad, Clayton Morris is trying hard to fix his past mistakes. He thought he was doing the right thing by leaving Olivia—and now he’s sure he has nothing to offer the accomplished woman she’s become. But ignoring the sparks between them is impossible. And as unexpected surprises and hard choices endanger their fragile reunion, they’ll have to decide which direction to take if they want to find the road back to love . . .

    You can be one of the first to pre-order your copy of AS GOOD AS THE FIRST TIME HERE.

    All the best,
