A Kiss So Deadly
by Candice Poarch

Leah Parrish Gray gets the shock of her life when she discovers her partner sold his half of their company to Jason Barrett—a man she doesn’t even know. Even worse, his first demand is that she drop her latest client. A day later, the client turns up dead and Leah is attacked on her way home. Unable to reach Jason, she is forced to hunt him down.

Vacations and Jason don’t mix, especially forced vacations. Yet this one gives him time to wonder why his favorite uncle insisted he buy half of Leah’s company. Then Leah shows up, beautiful, sensual and angry. He knows a boat load of trouble is in his future. Yet, she’s the first woman to turn him on since his wife’s death two years ago. Determined to keep her with him for the duration of his vacation, Jason discovers a powerful enemy stalks Leah and danger explodes around them.

Candice Poarch takes pride in crafting believable stories featuring African-American heroes and heroines.  The characters in her books demonstrate a strong sense of community and family support.  She firmly believes that everyday life in America (whether small town or major metropolitan city) has its own rich rewards.  She also likes telling stories that will leave today’s busy reader feeling refreshed and hopeful—not always an easy task, she says, but well worth the challenge.

Her fourteenth book, BITTERSWEET, (Dafina, July, 2006) deals with the heart, family, extended family and community.  "I really enjoyed Bittersweet... romance, comedy, mystery and intrigue...I would definitely recommend Bittersweet as a book club selection."  —Karen Monroe, Woman2Woman Book Club member.  Candice Poarch’s fifteenth book, SWEET SOUTHERN COMFORT, will be published by Kimani Press in November, 2006.
