The biggest critics of my books are the people who never read them.

I managed to take a family trip to the Bahamas and it was quite lovely.

My weakness is wearing too much leopard print.

I have considered rap music stars, and there is one in my new book, Lovers and Players, and there is also a hip-hop music mogul who I think you will like a lot.
