Welcome to the irresistible world of E. Lynn Harris...
He is a devilish and handsome ex-football player, now a rising sports agent at one of the hottest firms in the country. Irrepressible and dangerously alluring, John "Basil" Henderson has a history with women (and a few men). Basil is the consummate guy's guy: a commitment-phobe gadfly known for a double-edged magnetism that has the ability to thrill--and wound.
She is the uncompromising Yancey Harrington Braxton, an up-and-coming Broadway star who oozes charm and bleeds ambition. Young, beautiful, and dangerously crafty, Yancey is prepared to do whatever she must to get what she wants. A femme fatale who has left more than a few brokenhearted men in her wake, Yancey is intrigued and besotted by Basil.
Both believe that in each other they've finally met their match.
A lavish wedding is planned, and the ultimate power couple plans to spend their lives in holy matrimony. But just before the nuptials, fate and a little comeuppance from the past threaten the happy couple's future.
Masterful storyteller E. Lynn Harris takes the reader on a delicious ride into the mischievous lives of two very unforgettable characters.
E. Lynn Harris is the author of five previous bestselling novels, Invisible Life, Just As I Am, and the New York Times bestsellers, And This Too Shall Pass, If This World Were Mine, and Abide with Me. If This World Were Mine, was a finalist for the 1997 NAACP Image Award and awarded the James Baldwin Award for Literary Excellence. In April, 1999 Abide with Me reached the #1 position on The Washington Post and the New York Post's bestseller lists. Harris currently divides his time between Chicago and New York, where he is working on his memoir.
