TONIGHT I GIVE IN
by Mia A. Moore
 After
a hectic first year of graduate school and working, Myella McBride just
needs a release and to let off some steam, but little does she know
across the room destiny could await in the form of the battleship of
masculinity, parting the sea of people and making his way towards her.
Mya’s workload for her masters in English literature while teaching
overloaded sections of English composition has left her wanting and on the
verge of burning out. At the persistence of her free-spirited best friend,
she decides to take advantage of Memorial Day weekend, the first collective
opportunity around Chi-Town to shed the cold weather frocks and don
something crazy, sexy, and cool, before she retreats to the pseudo security
of her books. All she is looking for is some fun and a little harmless
flirting with the background of good music to groove to, because unlike her
friend, she does not believe the panacea to everything is a man. Besides
everyone knows you cannot meet a good, quality man at the club.
In
walks Trévon Threat, all-star pro linebacker, charming, handsome, and
intelligent. This intriguing modern day gladiator blows her mind and all her
preconceived notions about the spoiled self-indulgent conceited athlete.
This man with the intimidating name and ferocious occupation spawns emotions
and awakens feelings she didn’t realize she was capable of feeling. The
commonality of past sorrows and mutual interest, along with preternatural
chemistry forms a solid, special bond of friendship that grows into more. A
painful past, with a mentally and emotionally abusive mother and a failed
four-year long-distance relationship with an unfaithful boyfriend, has left
her with steamer trunks of suppressed baggage. When Mya initially avoids the
pitfalls of this baggage and overcomes her fears, she is able really to give
her heart for the first time. A dream romance develops between the two
friends, but is friendship, romance, and love enough for them to maneuver
through the sexual politics of a new relationship and find their way back
together, while combating an onslaught of jealousy, envy, insecurity,
temptation, and miscommunication, which is only compounded by Tré’s
high-profile career and outside foes?
Mya and Tré are perfectly flawed round,
dynamic characters. Their attraction excites you; their friendship renews
you; their romance captivates you; and their love nourishes you. Their story
is an engrossing emotionally complex journey of growth, understanding, and
love that all readers will enjoy.
