Novels
I loved writing my stand-alone novels, and readers enjoyed them. I received an award for best novel from the Black Caucus of the American Library Association for Ain’t Nobody’s Business If I Do, still one of my favorite books.

Ain’t Nobody’s Business If I Do: A Novel
At forty, artist-turned-librarian Eva Hutchinson isn't looking for a change. But on a hot Friday the 13th in June, Hutch, her husband of ten years, picks up his suitcase and walks into the night, searching for the "joy" that he feels is missing from their marriage. Suddenly, playing by the old rules doesn't make much sense to a not-quite-young sister whose stable world has turned upside down.
