Me


I'm Mel... I'm a perpetual bookworm, I read any and everything, and I write romance—erotica, historical, suspense, and interracial. And, although I am quite the procrastinator, I'm quite determined to be published in the future. Stories posted here are solely for practice and my amusement, if others enjoy them that's even better.


As an aspiring author I can be a bit anal when reviewing and tend to digress, but I'm pretty laid back when it comes to people's tastes. Hey, If You Like It, I Love It (that's my motto)...


My General Review: All great writers use an editor (beta); don't post a story nor updates without having an experienced one look over it first. If you don't have enough respect for your writing at least have some for your audience.

When the lines are drawn, will you risk your life to cross them for love?

In the Summer of 1988, tragedy hits home for Charlene Jacobson and her father when her little brother is killed playing a game of basketball in their Detroit housing projects.  She soon finds herself living in the small rural town of Millersville, Georgia, with her estranged grandmother. Millersville is a place where time stands still and the racial divide is as prevalent as the 1950s.  Secrets, lies, and betrayal lurk in every corner. Yet, through it all she finds solace in the arms of Ryan Quinn, a white senior track star and the son of the town Sherriff.  

Will their love cross the finish line?
