OK, I admit it - I'm a Yankee and so I may find places like Charleston just a bit more exotic than those more familiar with palmettos and spanish moss. We visited for a wedding anniversary and I was shocked that November could be outdoor pool weather. I fell in love with Crepe Myrtles - probably because there's no way I can ever have one of my own. We saw "Rebecca" at the Queen Street Theater - I am a sucker for Gothic novels. We had some fabulous southern food that I had never before tasted. We made all the stops... the Old Exchange, Rainbow Row, the City Market, the Old Slave Market and just strolled about the historic secions marvelling at the ironwork, much of which was completed by Phillip Simmons. There was so much rushing through my brain, I knew some of it would find a way into a book sooner than later - BRING IT.

Check some of the things that make Charleston such a special place in the Behind the Book links.

Bring It is a novel packed full of punch, excitement, and red hot sex. James Stone quickly became one of my favourite characters as he went through different stages of realization in his feelings for Laura. What woman can resist a man who promises to fulfil every sexual desire, and makes good on that promise?

Bring It is a story full of hope, joy, love and above all sexual awakening. A pure joy to read!

Donna for A Romance Review

Ms. Trent delivers another intriguing erotic romance mystery. James� character is a strong African American male who has worked his way up from the streets. His intelligence and business savvy is evident from his interactions with Laura and his business associates. Physically he is a wet dream. He won me over with his growth as a sensitive character as he won over Laura. Laura is a woman reeling from the destruction of her secure, love centered pampered world. Not only has she lost the foundation of her life - her parents - but she has lost money, her standing in the community and she lives in constant fear. I enjoyed her evolving character as she learned about her own desires and passions. Her feisty nature played well against James' character. She never backed down when it came to her heart even if that meant pushing James out of his comfort zone for sex. She had needs and made sure that James knew, while showing him how important they were to her. Their sex was edgy sweaty passion with a touch of BDSM that made me hot enough that I needed multiple toys.
