Book Description

May 5, 2009
It all started with a heated one-night stand...

Three months after a first date that ended in a night of explosive passion, Caress Coleman and Julius Jones find themselves somewhere between roommates with benefits and true love. She's smart, beautiful--and one paycheck away from broke. He's smart, handsome, and very successful. But that's just the beginning of their differences....

She's a slob--and that's putting it nicely.
He's a neat freak--and that's an understatement.

She's happy in sweatpants.
He's an urban sophisticate who wears the hippest designer labels.

She's a Reality TV addict.
He prefers listening to jazz.

They're total opposites in every way but one: they share a sizzling attraction that just won't quit. But can it last for the long haul?

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Newark native Bryant populates her hometown setting with clichéd characters and stock plot lines. Newly unemployed secretary Caress Coleman finds solace in the arms of successful photographer Julius Jones, but their one-night stand results in Caress's pregnancy. Mutual friends implausibly let Caress into Julius's apartment while he is away on business. Julius allows Caress to remain despite the requisite doubts about paternity and cohabitation with a near-stranger. Their close proximity refuels their attraction, until Caress asserts her independence by moving out when she gets a new job. A poorly dramatized birth, kidnapping and custodial lawsuit briefly raise tough issues of mistrust and responsibility that vanish in the abrupt resolution. Bryant's fans may be pleased by connections with 2001's Three Times a Lady, but there's little else to recommend this tired urban romance. (May)

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Read- a 4.5 rating from me, January 3, 2010
This review is from: Make You Mine (Paperback)
This is the first novel I have ever read by Niobia Bryant. Needless to say I was pleasantly happy with her style. I was irritated by a few mistakes within the novel (there were instances when the text should have read that Julius was speaking but she would put Jordan instead even though Jordan wasn't even in that particular scene).

I really liked Caress, she was a woman who had hit rock bottom and I like how Niobia remained true to that character. She didn't assume after finding her man that he would always take care of them...she carried on until he proved with the utlimate commitment that he was dedicated to her.

Julius, Julius, Julius-----besides his overly neat trait I was in love with his character. Not only was he fine, but he was a loyal and honest friend. I appreciated how Niobia also remained true to his character- even though he was clearly infatuated with Caress he was still a man confused about natural things. (Am I really in love with this woman? Is this really my baby? Am I ready for marriage?) Many romance novels turn these lifelong playboys into instant marriage material and that sometimes gets under my skin because it happens to easily. Niobia built this character up to really fall in love with this woman and for more than just the physical. He cared about her well-being but was still gaurded....

Overall this was an excellent book that I would recommend to anyone.

2.0 out of 5 stars Unexpected, November 30, 2009
This review is from: Make You Mine (Paperback)
I don't know how you can be melodramatic and anticlimactic at the same time, but this book managed. I love Niobia Bryant. Hot like firs was the first romance that I read and it didn't make me nauseous but this was horrible. I would have never expected this from her. Highly disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, May 9, 2009
This review is from: Make You Mine (Paperback)
I loved this book. Julius and Caress oh my these two Hot Hot Hot the chemistry and heat was there right from the beginning. I loved Caress she was a strong independent sista she loved and wanted Julius love from the start.It took Julius a little bit more time to accept that he loved Caress. But when he did oh my they were so good together. They had some bumps along the way to there everlasting love but there love was to strong. These two were meant for each other. Tamara and Kendrick oh my goodness two loyal trusting and loving friends. Every women should have a girfriend like Tamara. Loyal,funny she had Caress back and anybody who messed with her friend had to deal with Tamara. If Julius didn't man up and take care of his responsibilities Tamara was going to hurt him. And what a joy to revisit with Jordan and Mia from Three Times a Lady. Niobia outstanding wonderful book. Keep the books coming.
