Amanda is bored with life. She spends hours a day on Facebook, her parents
act like they are too ancient to enjoy life any longer, and her military
husband, Ralph, is deployed to Afghanistan. Gideon is not totally content at
home either. His wife, Nina, is a lifetime overachiever and a workaholic.
She has moved her mother into their home so she can have a live-in sitter,
and Gideon has fallen to the bottom of her priority list. On Black Friday
2012, both Amanda and Gideon end up at a Best Buy to take advantage of the
massive price cuts on electronics. When the store opens its door at
midnight, the potential customers rush the glass doors and end up in a
brawl. Built-up excitement turns into mass pandemonium as the police show up
in riot gear. Tear gas containers are being tossed around like lollipops and
strangers are beating on each other like a heavyweight fight at the MGM
Grand in Vegas.
Amanda and Gideon both end up in the skywalk overlooking the madness and,
even though they are complete strangers to each other, the adrenaline rush
overwhelms them and they discover quick ecstasy among the chaos. After
putting their clothes back on, followed by making formal introductions, they
embark on a sexual journey together that re-ignites the flames in their
souls. Both are forced to make choices that they never thought would have to
be made; marriages are placed at risk; heartbreak is inevitable. What starts
out merely as casual sex becomes much more than mere physical attraction and
their lives begin to unravel. No matter how incredible something wrong can
make one feel, eventually, Everything Fades Away.

Hope and Faith: two things that everyone needs to survive. But the words
take on a different meaning in the form of a set of twins who attend
Crockett University in Washington, D.C. As seniors, they are looking forward
to a bright future in corporate America. Meanwhile, they have decided to
relieve some of the stress involved in getting a higher education by being
members of APF.
Soror Ride 'em High and Soror Lick 'em Low, originally hail from Atlanta
and, like most twins, they share a connection. In fact, their physical bond
is so strong, that one can often feel a pounding in her vagina while the
other is engaged in sexual activity. But everything is not perfect when it
comes to being a twin. Sometimes animosity and jealousy can creep in;
especially when Hope and Faith find themselves both attracted to the same
man on campus. Is blood really thicker than water? Or, in this case, thicker
than basic carnal desires?
In this long-anticipated second volume in the APF series, a follow-up to
The Sisters of APF: The Indoctrination of Soror Ride Dick,
New York Times Bestselling Author Zane, once again proves why she is "The
Queen of Erotic Fiction." Over the years many have tried to emulate her but
Zane's imagination is not to be replicated any time in the near future. The
freak nights of APF are some of the most artistic, exhilarating, erotic
experiences that have ever graced the pages of a book; evidenced by the
thousands of emails Zane has received over the years from women yearning to
join the sorority.
The sexual revolution continues...within the pages of Head Bangers: An APF
Sexcapade.

Damon Johnson, who's been married to Carleigh for four years, is one of "the last good men" -- compassionate and honest, he worships the ground his wife walks on. But Carleigh treats Damon like a trophy husband, allowing her friends to salivate over him and disrespect their happy home. Damon has dreams beyond his six-figure corporate job, and Carleigh views his life aspirations as a joke. Her selfish nature makes Damon wonder if he made the right decision when he asked for her hand in marriage.
When a tragic event causes Brooke's and Damon's lives to intersect, truths unfold as they begin to reflect on their own relationships.
In this provocative tale of love and heartbreak, Zane explores what happens when you cater to your emotional well-being and discover the meaning of unconditional love...or, rather, experience a total eclipse of the heart.

What happens when "The Finest Man" you have ever laid eyes on is a woman?
What happens when a woman comes home to her man after a hard day's work with
"Lipstick on Her Collar?" What happens when a married woman runs across the
love of her life -- another woman -- who insists that "It's All or Nothing?"
Is there such a thing as playing too "Hard to Get?" What happens when "Mom's
Night Out" turns into group sex? What happens when you discover your true
sexuality "At Last?" All of these questions and more are answered within the
pages of Purple Panties.
Written by women from all over the world, here is a new level of lesbian
erotica, compiled by Zane, that promises the most exciting and steamy
reading experience possible. These stories move beyond race, age, and all
walks of life, including long-hidden passions, secret rendezvous with
strangers, and May-December romances.
With Zane's ever-growing popularity, and the need for increasingly quality
erotica, Purple Panties will satisfy a long-standing demand for
African-American lesbian literature.
In the tradition of such successful erotica anthologies as Chocolate Flava
and Caramel Flava, Purple Panties uncovers a new world of evocative
risk-taking that has never been explored before from a lesbian perspective.
The adventures in these stories are beyond everyone's wildest imaginations.

Truer words have never been spoken. This heart-wrenching collection of novellas brings that statement to life in three unique ways, penned by three of the generation's most prolific authors.
In Eileen M. Johnson's "How the Other Half Lives," Jamellah and Fernecia have been friends since forever. Having escaped the poverty of their youth together, they both had made their mark in society. However, men problems threaten to make them literally fall apart. Fernecia is married to a man who was raised to think he is better than everyone -- even his own wife. Jamellah has always used men to get ahead but eventually everything catches up to her. The two friends must ultimately count on each other in a world of havoc and distrust.
In V. Anthony Rivers' "Love Is 2 Blame," Malcolm is devastated after a two-year relationship with Shaylisa ends. He finds it difficult to function because he cannot comprehend why she would want to end such a perfect situation. He was everything she had asked for; he treated her with respect and showered her with love. Yet love was not enough. Trying to move on to someone new will not be as easy as it used to be, but will the lovely Zahara show Malcolm what true love is all about?
In Zane's "Staring Evil in the Face," Robier has everything a man could ever wish for: a stable and rewarding career, two beautiful children, an elegant home, and the woman of his dreams. Having loved Tiphanie since college, he is determined to keep his marital vows until . . . Tiphanie is involved in a horrible car accident that changes the entire course of their lives.
From nervous breakdowns to drug addiction, Love Is Never Painless explores the deeper side of love; the side rarely explored in romance novels. Zane, Johnson, and Rivers have penned a powerful collection of novellas that will not only have readers talking but also examining their own relationships with a new perspective.

In the latest romantic romp from New York Times bestselling author Zane, two hapless lovers get lost in a dating game gone awry.
When Washington, D.C., chiropractor Yardley Brown goes to his local bank, it isn't only to make deposits into his account. He has long since accrued some interest in Rayne Waters, a bank employee who's too beautiful to be true -- and too beautiful to be single. At least that's what Yardley believes, which is why he has never approached her.
Little does he know that Rayne is anything but taken. Not for want of trying, of course. But after barely surviving a dating disaster with her hairdresser's brother and then falling for a member of her church band who, it turns out, is celibate, she's on the verge of giving up. That is, until Yardley -- discouraged by his own slew of dead-end romances -- finally works up the courage to give her a try.
The true craziness, however, is just beginning, thanks to a cast of characters who seem bent on botching the young couple's relationship.
There's Rayne's erratic mother, who constantly boasts about being a "good whore"; Yardley's playboy buddies, always trolling for sex; and, worst of all, past lovers who make a habit of popping up and ruining things as only old flames (or previous mistakes) can. Weaving the carnal and the comical in true Zane fashion, Rayne and Yardley's struggle to find love in a world gone mad is a timeless talk about everything that can go wrong in the dating game -- and a few things that can go right.

Publisher: Atria Books
Most corporations hand out bonus checks or gift certificates for Christmas but Wolfe Industries hands out drama. Skyscraper centers around the week before the Annual Christmas Party at Wolfe Industries, the first African-American automobile manufacturer. It examines the lives of four central characters: Chico, an 18-year-old mailroom clerk, Anastasia, a 25-year-old secretary, Diana, a 37-year-old executive assistant, and Tomalis Wolfe, the 50-year-old CEO.
Chico resides with his overprotective, extremely religious mother and is the typical young man when it comes to sex. He doesn't turn it down. Anastasia, along with her best friend and coworker, Shakia, spends her nights in the secret penthouse maintained by Wolfe executives for partying and wild sex. Diana, a single mother of twin boys, is frustrated with her current position as an executive assistant. Meanwhile Edmund, a parking garage attendant, has the hots for her but she will never give him the time of day. Tomalis has all the money in the world and all the problems: a whorish wife, a bitchy mother-in-law, a druggie daughter, and a trifling son. A determined individual who built his empire from scratch, Tomalis is not one to be toyed with and he intends to make everyone around him understand that for once and for all.
The week leading up to the Christmas party is unforgettable, as the lives of four people who have barely interacted with each other in the past begin to cross paths in the most disturbing ways. By the time the actual party takes place, they will be lucky if the Wolfe Industries Skyscraper is still standing.

Zane's legion of fans can't get enough of her way of telling a juicy, sexy story. Now, the New York Times bestselling queen of erotica brings us a tale of a woman with a split personality -- one highly sexed and one sexually repressed.
Jonquinette Pierce has always been nervous when it comes to men. She
took a job dealing with mostly women so she could avoid men. She goes to
work and comes straight home during the week, but on the weekends her
other self, Jude, takes over and goes on intense sexual escapades.
Jonquinette recognizes that her alter ego is a problem and seeks to
resolve it with the help of Dr. Marcella Spencer, the psychiatrist Zane
originated in her bestselling novel Addicted. Jude's response is to get
angry and go on a sexual rampage. In the meantime, Jonquinette becomes
interested in her new neighbor, Mason, after having a conversation with
him at a mutual friend's wedding. Jude has no intention of letting
Jonquinette fall in love and find happiness at her expense. Jude is
having way too much fun using the body she shares with Jonquinette. This
"two faces of Eve" scenario is a fun fantasy for women who have imagined
their own alter ego behaving badly in a sexual way. But for the leading
lady of Nervous, this is a nightmare. Based on a short story of the same
title from her bestselling collection, The Sex Chronicles, Nervous is
classic Zane with an edge. So, relax, sit back. You're in for a
nerve-tingling read.

Zane is back with Gettin' Buck Wild: Sex Chronicles II, more stories for the
legion of readers that made The Sex Chronicles a bestseller.
Zane's erotic short stories have captivated the minds of both sexes and all
races. The Sex Chronicles: Shattering the Myth did exactly what its title
implies -- exploded the myth that men are more sexual in nature than women,
and that African-American women in particular are inhibited compared to
their female counterparts of other cultures.
Her audience is growing by leaps and bounds, nurtured by her Internet site
and her previous bestselling titles, including The Heat Seekers, her debut
in hardcover. Zane knows exactly what her readers want, and in Gettin' Buck
Wild she gives them some of her most provocative prose to date. Her
characters and settings run the gamut from committed, monogamous couples
looking to experiment, to the wild single sisters who belong to a very
unconventional sorority. Zane tells the story of a high-paid multi-tasking
career woman who gets her groove back in "When Opposites Attract," a couple
who try something new in "The Subway -- A Quickie," and a new way of
celebrating Christmas in "The Santa Claus." She spices up real-life
scenarios with over-the-top sexual fantasy and ultimately gives her readers
the best time they've ever had between the pages of a book.
With all-new characters and settings, Gettin' Buck Wild is Zane's hottest
collection of stories yet. Smart, witty and extremely sexy, this second
volume of Sex Chronicles is tailored to women -- but perfect for lovers to
share.

The Sisters of APF is Zane's first book based on one of her most popular short story subjects, the sexy escapades of a sorority like no other.
APF stands for Alpha Phi Fuckem, a sorority dedicated to sexual freedom and the fulfillment of its members. Zane's APF stories have appeared in her earlier collections, including The Sex Chronicles: Shattering the Myth, and are favorites among her readers.
Many readers have written to Zane and asked to join the sorority or to launch a new chapter in their region. APF is fantasy, but the enthusiasm of Zane's fans is real. So now, with The Sisters of APF, she's offering readers what they want, a book-length story chronicling the adventures -- and recruitment process -- of the fearlessly sexy women of APF.
Mary Ann is the daughter of a chicken farmer from South Dakota. She has never been more than fifty miles from home and has led a sheltered life. By the time she goes off to college in Washington, D.C., she has been intimate with only one man -- her high school sweetheart. The resident manager of Mary Ann's dormitory, Patricia, befriends the country bumpkin. She finds Mary Ann amusing, but also senses something intriguing about her, hidden under the surface. After Mary Ann becomes smitten with Trevor, the campus playboy, Patricia is determined to show Mary Ann how not to be a victim, but rather how to outdo the players and heartbreakers. She indoctrinates Mary Ann into the ranks of the sexiest secret society ever: the sisters of APF.

Shame On It All

Publisher: Strebor Books International, LLC
Pub. Date: June 2001
From the Publisher:
Can you say WILD? Can you say FREAKY DEAKY? Can you say in your
best Shananae imitation, "Oh my goodness! No she didn't
even go there!" If you can say all of that, then you can
probably handle reading this book. However, the only thing you
will be able to say after you finish it is "Shame on it
all!" Thus, the title.
Harmony, the oldest, is the conservative type. A successful business owner who often puts in long hours to make extra money to help support her younger sisters. She is often torn between doing what's right and doing what feels good but there is one thing she doesn't sway her opinion on and that's the physical and emotional welfare of Bryce and Lucky.
Bryce, the middle sister, is fascinated with two things; hair weaves and hellified sex in that order. She is by far the wildest of the Whitfield crew. While she often talks trash about Harmony to her face, she simply will not tolerate it from anyone else. Sometimes rowdy and always uninhibited, Bryce takes no prisoners when it comes to getting what she wants out of life.
Lucky, the baby of the bunch, is a thriving medical school student and as Afrocentric as they come. She brings a degree of balance to the often volatile conversations between her two older siblings but sometimes she lacks good judgment when it comes to relationships with men.
Fatima, Harmony's best friend, wants out of a troubled marriage to a wealthy businessman. She is willing to do just about anything to get him out of her life and with the aid of a few trusted friends, she does just that in the most unique way.
Colette, Bryce's best friend, puts the H in hoochie. She spends the majority of her time macking men. That is, until she meets her match in the form of a male stripper sporting a 2 x 4 between his legs.
Jam-packed with unpredictable, unbelievable and just downright crazy situations with a few surprising twists thrown in for good measure, Shame On It All is as wild as they come
The five sections of Shame On It All are separated by four commercials, adding to the uniqueness the book. All of the people featured in the commercials end up as minor characters in the book.
