For Deborah, writing is akin to breathing and she firmly believes that if she could not write she would cease to exist. Weaving a story that leaves her audience feeling full and complete—as if they've just enjoyed an incredible meal—is the ultimate thrill for her. Deborah currently has five works of fiction in the marketing stage, and every writer's inevitable drawer full of rejection letters.

In the tradition of the griots, oral historians, and all indigenous
storytellers, Deborah Fletcher Mello brings to life the haunting story of
Janay Tucker, a young woman who is forced to reflect back on her past and
the memories of her tumultuous childhood when she receives notice of her
incarcerated father's death. Rehashing history through the eyes of her
paternal grandfather, James Tucker, Janay is made to flash back to a past
with an abusive mother who dies a violent death, a father imprisoned for the
crime, and the family and friends left to help rebuild her future. Through a
tapestry of human encounters, Rested Waters delves into the emotions and
experiences of love and turmoil, racism and respect, flesh and spirit.

Pleasure before business...
John Stallion may be a ruthless CEO who thinks he can buy her family's Texas
ranch, but Dallas businesswoman Marah Briscoe intends to put her
considerable charm and savvy into breaking his iron grip on the proposed
deal. Instead, she's blindsided by a man as infuriating as he is
irresistible--a man who makes it clear he plays to win, especially where a
beautiful woman is concerned.
Marah is feisty and furious, but all John can think about is the feel of her
soft skin and full, sensual lips. The line between business and pleasure is
crossed the moment she storms into his office wearing skinny jeans and
sultry perfume. Determined to get closer to this passionate woman who has
invaded his life, he begins their negotiations with a kiss....

With his smooth moves and killer smile, celebrity chef Darwin Tolliver was

to him than just the playboy bachelor she remembered?
