Summary: This book goes on my read over and over again shelf
Review: All I have to say is, "Run right out and buy this book". I really enjoyed this story. It was so good. This book was light and very easy to read. The characters were so real and reminded me of people I know. I could see a lot of myself in this female character.The story is about Chloe, the beautiful supermodel, who has retired due to burnout. She's also tired of NY, so she has decided to build a house in her mom's hometown of Holtsville, SC. The rugged, handsome, fine, construction worker/builder/architect Devon is building her house. Devon has no respect for supermodels. He thinks they are airheads strung out on drugs. So, when he and Chloe meet, not only do the sparks fly, but so does the name calling. Chloe knows what she wants (Devon) and is not afraid to go after it. There are so many funny lines in this story. I really enjoyed reading this book. Chloe says things like, "If you don't keep my name out of your mouth..." That sounds just like something I would say. Or "What the devil is wrong with you?" She also has a down to earth, tell it like it is best friend. Like we all have. Then there is Nana Lil, Devon's grandmother. She is such a lovable character who speaks her mind and sounds nothing like the grandmothers I know. At one point in the book, she knocks on the door and yells out, "You two are mighty quiet in there. Whatever it is you're doing, don't need to be done in my room!" That was too funny. Just like any good romance story, there is someone in the background secretly in love with your man, plotting to steal him behind your back. Okay, okay, I'll say no more. Just read the book. Did I mention the love scenes? One word, "HOT"! Great job Niobia. I am so looking forward to your next book.

Summary: What a Love!
Review: Chloe a beautiful & wealthy fashion model was tired of the fast life. She yearned for something more stable. She decides to take the land she inherited in Holtsville, South Carolina and build herself a home. She was very disappointed at finding her boyfriend in bed with another woman. It was definitely time to go. She didn't anticipate faling hopelessly in love with the stubborn, but fine Devon Jamison. Devin and his twin brother DeShawn would be building her home. Devon Jamison didn't like flashy real beautiful women. He was instantly disgusted with Chloe. He had her all summed up, before he got to know her. He had an old girlfriend that was beautiful and ridiculous. He felt Chloe couldn't be any different than her. BOY WAS HE WRONG! Chloe was not only beautiful, but could cook and was really a deep person. Devon didn't want to admit his growing attraction to her, but Chloe on the other hand did notice her attraction to him. She set out to get just what she wanted HIM. This was a wonderful family drama with a down home flavor. I believe this is Niobia's first book and she did a great job. If you are skeptical about getting this one, give it a try. I liked it!

Summary: sent from heaven above...
Review: chloe and devon were the cutest and funniest couple i ever read about in an arabesque novel. and nana lil was full of nothing but love. she played cupid for the two blind love birds (chloe and devon). i learned that you just can't fight love in this novel, it nearly brought me to tears, and that's saying a lot for me. a very good read, even though you may get a little frustrated with the way chloe and devon act sometimes, you'll still be hooked enough to keep turning the pages. ENJOY!

Summary: admission of Love
Review: Chloe Bolton wants to settle down. Her late mother left her some land, and that is where she will live when she quits the rat race of being a world renowned celebrity. The builder of her home is Jamison Contractors, owned by twins Devon and Deshawn Jamison. Devon is suspicious of her motives and is prepared to dislike her while his twin eagerly awaits her. Chloe and Devon bump heads, almost literally when she almost runs into him on the road. It is downhill from that point, despite the strong attraction they feel. Despite his reluctance, Devon realizes that Chloe is not the spoiled, drug addicted person he has associated with her prior lifestyle. But there are those who are not happy about their relationship, one being Devon's childhood friend, Alicia, who has been secretly in love with him for years. Chloe is called back to New York to wrap up some business, and Devon wonders if she intends to come back. This was a well-crafted story with engaging secondary characters.

Summary: Five stars is not enough!!
Review: For a new author Ms. Bryant did an excellant job on this book. I was hesitant at first but after reading the reviews I set out this weekend to read it. Well let me tell you I lost much needed sleep because I could not put this book down. Chloe and Devon were like someone you know. And Nana Lil was too funny. She had some true one liners. This story was good from beginning to the end. You will not, let me repeat will not be disappointed with this one. Run don't walk to the nearest store and get this one. I think Deshawn and Anika should have a story next. Good job Niobia. I can't wait for you next one.

Summary: Yes, yes, yes those Jamison Twins are something else!!
Review: I agree with Crytal, five is definitely not enough! Ok, this is one of arabesque's best novels for the month of August. I absolutely loved this story. Chloe and Devon were great together. I laughed so much reading this book. "Admission of Love" was a very refreshing read. I loved Chloe's character, she really knows how go after her man. Devon put up a good fight, but was no match for the lovely wills Chloe put on him! The storyline for this book was one of my favorites, if not my favorite! The idea behind two people really not liking each other when they initially meet, but passionate sparks fly between anyway is so good to me! This book really did remind me of my favorite book of all times "Fire and Desire" by Brenda Jackson. That really means a lot coming from a die hard fan of Jackson's. The girl can really throw down on some paper!! A very extremelly, I mean great read! Nice job Bryant!!
