Book Description

April 2005
Single mother, Indigo, hasn't had drama in her life for years. She doesn't let men in when they come to her door with their baggage. Since her son's father was incarcerated, she has been doing her and holding down her little man. Kofi is a man who can still taste the bitterness from previous relationships and keeps women at a distance. Women who can accept his definition of 'friends' and don't try to overstep their boundaries. The view each other as suspect, and just what the other one doesn't need in their lives; more drama and bitterness. It would be easy to dismiss the other if they both weren't strongly attracted to each other. They have to brave their own issues, as well as family and friends who throw both shade and support. And past relationships seek to wedge themselves between the two lovers. They will either surrender to their feelings or their insecurities.

About the Author

Tatu, a group of friends comprised of 3 writers, 2 female and 1 male, always had a fondness for written word, mostly sharing their individual works between each other, family and friends. As a friendly challenge the group decided to create a story where each writer would write a chapter and the next writer would have to pick up where the former left off, not knowing what twists and turns the story would take. The only rule: keep it real. Before they knew it, they had completed their first book, Indigo Blue.

5.0 out of 5 stars Real Love, Real Hope, REAL LIFE, September 6, 2005
This review is from: Love Mosaics: Indigo Blue (Paperback)
If I've ever read a story that so closely depicted the true nature of African American love and relationship, Indigo Blue is definitely the book that is the epitome of trying faith, enduring struggle, holding on to love and letting go of fear. I cried. I laughed. I got angry. By the time I finished the book the characters, had become so real to me....I felt like I could pick up the phone and call them! I highly HIGHLY recommend the book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved It!, August 21, 2005
This review is from: Love Mosaics: Indigo Blue (Paperback)
Wow... what to say? A page turner. I must be honest, I had the book for awhile, it was a gift from my cousin that knew I was an avid reader. So like most avid readers, you have a pile of books you haven't read yet, and since I didn't recognize the author, this book went into the pile. Wrong move!!! I should have begin reading it the minute I pulled it out of the gift bag. Each chapter forced me to read the next, I couldn't put it down! True, a bit small, but worth the read and I can't wait to find out what happens in the 2nd book! If you haven't read it, you should.

4.0 out of 5 stars A fast, interesting read by the new trio Tatu, January 25, 2006

This review is from: Love Mosaics: Indigo Blue (Paperback)
Tatu, a collective of three authors writing as one, has made a stellar debut into the fiction publishing world. In "Love Mosaics: Indigo Blue", Tatu conjures up Indigo, a single Mom who has created a nice life for herself and her son David with the help of friends like her older neighbor Mama Jo who looks out for Indigo as if she were her own. Indigo has crafted this nice life for her and David despite the trifling ways of David's Dad who is in and out of prison.

As the novel opens, Indigo meets Kofi when her friend Kenya and Kenya's man, who is also Kofi's friend, invite them both along to a concert. There is instant attraction between them despite the fact that both of them are a bit put off to be forced into a blind date of sorts. However, the attraction outweighs the frustration.

Both are leery of relationships based on past experiences - Indigo with the father of her child and Kofi with a former girlfriend who left him for a ex-con just like Indigo's ex. Needless to say, the road to friendship and more starts off rocky!

Tatu does an amazing job of crafting the tale such that you would never think three voices were merged in one. The characters are full and realistic and the situations that arise including suspect friends such as Kenya and Kofi's having to deal with his shady history interfering with his future are genuine. I surely look forward to future Love Mosaics books by Tatu.
