ABOUT ABIOLA'S BOOK:
DARE is the crazy, sexy, smart debut novel by Abiola Abrams about two women who dare to step outside themselves to get a life.
DARE is the sizzling story of a sociologist who goes undercover as a racy rapper and winds up in too deep, searching for love in the glam world of entertainment, a searing tale of love, music and temptation.
Meet Maya Hope. Double-dipped in cocoa with brick-house curves, she's a lover of jazz, a political poet, and a sociologist. Her best friend and roommate, Athena Jackson, is her opposite in every way- a petite ex-cheerleader who's always blaring rap, grinding out rhymes, and ready to take the next man home. When Maya is forced to pinch-hit in an audition and bust Athena's rhymes, she finds herself on an undercover escapade in the wild world of hip-hop as the raw, sexy, roughneck Jezebel.
(Order DARE by ABIOLA ABRAMS at Amazon, Barnes & Noble or wherever you buy books! www.abiolaabrams.com)
Brimming with electric sensuality, DARE is an unforgettable, envelope-pushing odyssey of two gutsy women playing by their own rules. On her fantabulous journey through the delicious world of temptation, the real question is whether Maya really finds joy or loses herself?
