Today is the day PERFECT SHOT meets world. My debut solo book is now available at bookstores and I couldn’t be more excited. The first thing I’m going to do is grab my camera, head over to my local bookstore, and take a perfect shot of PERFECT SHOT.
But before I hit the streets like a wacky woman on a mission, allow me to introduce you to 15-year-old London Abrams, the main character of this story. London’s a special little lady, and not only because she’s a dope volleyball player—London is also the first African-American protagonist to be featured in this Simon Pulse Romantic Comedies series. I’m so proud of this. And I know readers of all backgrounds will connect with London and the rest of the multicultural cast of characters in this book.
On this thrilling day, I’m also proud to premiere the book trailer for PERFECT SHOT. It’s produced by my very own 15-year-old niece Ana. In fact, most of the trailer is a family affair. The featured song (“Butterfly”) was written by Ana and my cousin Maeva and is performed by Ana; my lovely goddaughter Amanda makes a cameo appearance as one of the fabulous models (she’s the first one, wearing a beret); and my cousin Junior is featured as the heartthrob character “Brent.” Take a look!
I’ll be on a Girlfriend Cyber Circuit blog tour all week, so check back with info on where to find my profiles. For now, I’ve got a bookstore to raid!

I’m coming to you from YA Fresh. Congrats on your book. And the fact that it’s the first AA MC to be accepted in the Simon Pulse line. That’s right up there with Disney’s first AA princess!
And you live in Bermuda! Wow, so jealous. That place is on my Travel List.
