Product Description

You've heard about it, you've read about it, most of us have been through it, the various stages of lesbian love. It starts with the lingering looks across the room at an interesting stranger, romantic e-mails, flowers, and wearing leather on your first date. Then once you have her, stage two kicks off with all night sex sessions that leave you sore but still wanting more. Soon you don't even want to leave the house for months, and some of your friends even forget your name. Then, if you're lucky (and not on the second date, mind you), the third stage comes around and you've settled into the comfy couch of your relationship. Come join Nghosi Books down memory lane or take this journey for the very first time as we introduce you to ultimate pleasure in our New Voices Series of longing, lust, and love!

Lust, Longing, Love at its best
Ladies and Studs seeking these pleasures can look no further than LONGING, LUST AND LOVE: BLACK LESBIAN STORIES.

Written by 25 new and established writers, this collection of sultry tales, edited by Nghosi Books founder Shonia L. Brown, traces the varying stages of black lesbian relationships - from the art of tease to tying the knot. Every story finds women in different forms of infatuation, pursuit and devotion.

Take for instance, in "Heartfelt" by Nikki Rose, longing is shown through the eyes of Taris, who immediately becomes attracted to a co-worker's sister, Kai, who doesn't give her the time of day. Taris, an aggressive businesswoman, is used to conquering every obstacle and is determined to break down Kai's icy demeanor.

Lust becomes desperate in "Look at Me When You Come" by Tasha C. Miller, as Alexis falls for an extremely sexy stud who grants her every bedroom desire. Married and miserable, Alexis abandons her unsatisfying relationship for a few gratifying hours with Taylor - but eventually Alexis wants something more than just passionate exchanges. Is her stud charming willing to give her what she wants?

Finding and sustaining love are two different things, but Brown's own tale, "From Friends to Lovers" makes it look effortless between acquaintances Erin and Serita. Meeting at a party two years prior, the pair never quite found their way to each other. A brazen phone call one night unlocks the mystery of where their attraction could lead -- from being distant to being together -- without any distractions.

Longing, Lust, and Love takes women there and still keeps a realistic tone with every word. Brown has chosen a well-rounded concoction sure to have you melting, laughing and yearning for love, lust and longing -- everything a woman wants.

Wow is an understatement....
I have been waiting for a book of this caliber for quite some time.... and thankfully, it was created! Amazing stories, excellent editing and details. The story "Bringing Up Daddy" is itself worth the price of this book... and then some. I'm buying multiple copies to give as Christmas presents this year. Every lesbian of color should own this book...

Great read.
I pre-ordered this from Ngoshi Books (the publishing company). The editor of the book broke the stories into 3 sections. Longing, Lust, and Love. All were very good. My favorite was by Laurinda Brown. Very very sexy.
