So in my dream life these guys would make up my harem of boy toys. But since those kinds of dreams seldom come true, I just envision them as the heros for my new series: HIGHTOWER HONORS Four Brothers on a Mission to Protect, Serve and Love .
In Protect and Serve , Jason Hightower is a police detective for the Paterson police department who needs to conquer his past by finally confronting the first love he thinks betrayed him. He needs to do so before a threat from her past takes her away for good. I think that the sexy soap star Tobias Truvillion would make a mighty fine Jason Hightower. This book is scheduled for July 2008.
In Make It Hot , Joel Hightower is a fireman injured on the job and forced to think about a career outside of his dream job. Too bad he can’t think around the spunky physical therapist helping him recover. I think Eve’s former on-screen boyfriend would bring the heat just fine as Joel Hightower. He looks like he can make it hot… This book is scheduled for September 2008.
In Upholding the Law , the woman Lawrence Hightower finds himself falling in love with could very well be a criminal. He needs to figure out who she really is before the criminals looking for her find her. I think Idris Elba is so yummy he could play just about any role he wanted. But I can just see him as Lawrence Hightower… yummy…
In Sizzling Seduction , Patrick Hightower is used to putting out fires, but a sweet and sexy kindergarten teacher breaks through his protective shield and gets him thinking it might be more fun starting one. Lamman Rucker put the f-i-n and e in fine. And he would be perfect as the oldest Hightower brother, Patrick.

I got this cool quiz from Patricia’s Blog and had to post my results here. Check out Patricia’s blog and results here:
You are Jasmine. Princess Jasmine is a girl who only a few special people can get close to. She has a pet tiger named Raja who will obey only her. Jasmine is smart, and fun, and beautiful, according to Aladdin. You have Jasmine’s fiery spirit, and you probably have a few close friends as opposed to many acquaintances. You are admirable, for you stand up not only for yourself, but for your beliefs, friends, and whosoever is being picked on. You have a very strong character and you know exactly what you want. Take this quiz!

Check out Shelia Goss’s excellent post on the questions some authors are asked and the responses they give. All I can do is co-sign and amen to this… Check out what she has to say here:
My soror, Elle, has an interesting post on a recent development in the brutal rape and torture of the young black woman, Megan Williams, in West Virginia. All I can say is “makes me wanna holla and throw up both my hands…”
And, our friend the always smart and on-point Angelia has a wonderful post that provides a nice lesson for all of us who like to talk first and listen later…
And Patricia W has another featured author. Today, she’s featuring Janice Sims. And since we here at Gwyneth’s Blog believe in bringing information about African American authors to your attention, here’s the link:
I think Gwendolyn wins this one. That’s the best sexy name of the two, in my opinion. And since Gwendolyn’s life is keeping me away from Gwyneth’s Blog, I guess that’s only fitting… Who knows when I’ll have time to really blog between Gwendolyn’s teaching and Gwyneth’s deadlines I need to take a break. I’ll be back though…
much love and peace,
Gwyneth who’s really Gwendolyn today… and no I’m not crazy… this just helps me deal with my dual life…LOL…

Because I’m still trying to wrap my mind around how to express how horrified and saddened I am about this, I’ll just say take a look at Adrianne Byrd’s blog for news coverage on the cruel and inhumane treatment a young black woman in West Virginia had to endure in our country in the 21st century… I’m so disgusted and angry that I can’t even blog about it yet.
Patricia has an outstanding interview with Christian fiction author Marilynn Griffith posted on her blog. Be sure to go and check it out and comment. You can read the interview here:
Foxy Brown is going to jail for a year. How many ways can I tell these rap chicks that jail is not cute? And Foxy is going to jail behind some dumb stuff. Hitting someone with a cell phone? Just because Naomi Campbell got off with community service for doing that does not mean you can get away with it. I mean really do we have to talk to you like you’re a two year old, Foxy? Okay, here goes… “Foxy, no, no, no. Use your words, sweetie. No hitting.” And trust me you don’t want to be the chick in jail for hitting someone with a cell phone. I mean really, try looking tough in front of Big Wilma talking about, “Yeah, so then I threw my cellie at the chick and told her she must not know ‘bout me. I’m Foxy Brown, B!@#*!” Unh unh. Nope. Not gonna work. Oh well, may be you’ll be able to share a cell with Remy Ma… For now, I’ll just watch this old remix of Total’s “No One Else” featuring Foxy Brown, Lil’ Kim and Da Brat and remember the days before female rappers thought it was all the rage to go to jail. Who knew orange jail jumpsuits would become so chic…
