ABOUT THE BOOK

Darrin Bainbridge is your typical playboy in need of love, but not yet ready. He is a freelance journalist trying to break his big story. He has heard all kinds of stories about “Hollywood“. Darrin is disgusted by it all especially when his mother Priscilla starts shouting praises for Atlanta Bishop Kumal Prentiss. Darrin decides to go to Atlanta, become a member of the bishop’s church, and expose him for the hustling fraud that he believes he is. He just never planned on falling in love with the Bishop’s daughter.

FaLaLa Mix #1

OPB – Men, Relationships & Books

O.P.B. – Other People’s Blogs is back. This is the time I highlight a few of my favorite blog spots.

For the sake of time, I’ll list three:

Very Smart Brothas - you never know what these guys will be talking about, so check them out. Be warned, some of the subjects are for mature folks only.

The Comeback Girl a/k/a The Treehouse – is another favorite hang out spot of mine.  Its a place where women & men are empowered to be the best they can be–discussions range from relationships to finance.

APOOO Book Club Blog – Now you know I love books so I had to include at least one book blog in today’s post. For the best in African-American Literature and a chance to win a free book (hint hint: contests going on now), check it out.

Now that I’ve given out a few shout outs to three of my favorite blog hangouts, I want to mention what seems to be some top posts here on my own blogs. I won’t be mad if you leave a comment.  :)
