Publisher's Synopsis
They say the blacker the berry the sweeter the juice, but for Tierra Greene that's the furthest thing from the truth. Growing up with a notion that "light skin's the right skin," Tierra's always felt unlovable courtesy of her ebony-hued skin tone. The epitome of the "black sheep," she's lived a life of coming in second to her "light bright" twin sister, Kierra. Although she's got the love of family, friends, and professional success beyond measure, her life is barren when it comes to love and romance. Just when Tierra's set to give up hope of finding that everlasting love, her prince charming shows up in the most unlikely of men. Will she throw caution to the wind and drown her prince in her sea of dark chocolate, or will she ignore her heart for fear of what others may say? Richard Harris is young, bright, ambitious, and eager to dive head first into enjoying life away from home. Though at first glance he appears "wet behind the ears," Ricky is all man and more than capable of chasing the woman of his dreams-no matter what or who may try to stand in his way. Despite his numerous efforts to express his love for her, he can't seem to win that ultimate prize; her heart. But Ricky's far from a quitter, and he won't rest until the woman he loves is his, and his alone. Will Tierra be able to shed her control-freak ways and go against the norm, or will Ricky crash and burn in his attempt to give her a love that she deserves? Find out in the riveting page-turner...
