About Me

Linda Dominique Grosvenor is a Bestselling Author and Relationship Expert affectionately known to many as Princess Dominique. She has been teaching both popular and aspiring authors how to promote their books for the past 10 years! She refers to herself as The Woman, The Celebrity, The Brand, because she believes that for someone who walked past blighted property and vacant lots on the way to and from school every day in the South Bronx, she is living proof that with faith and the favor of God there is nothing you can't do. Grosvenor made her foray into non-fiction with the inspirational smash hit The Plural Thing: Spiritually Preparing for Your Soul Mate. Her expertise on dating and relationship issues has been used in articles for publications such as Modern Bride, Jolie, Honey, Jewel and MORE Magazine. More like a chameleon, she is engaged to fashion, particularly vintage dresses or jeans and nostalgic tees with very high heels--three to four inches at best. She confesses that although she's genuinely smitten with fashion and studied a semester at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City in the late 90's, the love of fashion is really just the anesthesia that helps her face the current state of fiction. A tireless advocate and student of Nyack College, Grosvenor founded the Love Better Camp a non-profit organization that is dedicated to boosting the self-esteem of young women and men from all walks of life in 2007.
The Plural Thing: Spiritually Preparing for Your Soul Mate (ISBN:0-9793660-9-7 | $19.95 | Princess Dominique Multimedia) is unadulterated, hard-hitting, tough-loving, no-nonsense truth. With Biblical principles, keen insight, self-disclosure and candidness Grosvenor provides guidance to those struggling with sexual soul ties, an adulterous relationship, low self-esteem and have resigned themselves to settling for second-best or are just in love with being in love and finally want the freedom to receive God's blessings for their lives.

My Interests

Fashion including A-list designers and also an interest in up and coming designers. I am smitten with the glam style of the 20's and anything vintage that translates well to the modern. Shoes are definitely my fetish--4 inch heels are my candy. Lip gloss and ruffle skirts too. I love all music personally, but lean toward the alternative and neo-soul sound. Art, television and movie making are interests as is learning to play the guitar. I'm currently toying with my first documentary. I would also love a small part in an indie film (just in case you're casting) I can play a barmaid and make a kick-butt Cosmopolitan.

I'd like to meet:

Just about everybody.

Music:

My favorites artists are Teena Marie, Prince, Maxwell, Wendy and Lisa, Jill Scott, Shu, Floetry, Marc Anthony and newly added Jamie Foxx, Kem, Kevin Max Smith, Alicia Keys and some popular music soundtracks.

Movies:

I'm an 80s kind of girl so, some of my favorite movies are The Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink, Flashdance, St. Elmo's Fire and some other favorites include Pretty Woman, Love Jones as well as Il Postino, Anti Trust, The Bridges of Madison County, What Lies Beneath, Unfaithful, A Walk on the Moon, The Notebook and City of Angels. Also, Underworld, Some Kind of Wonderful, The Italian Job, I Think I Love My Wife and X-Men.

Television:

Veronica Mars, America's Next Top Model, The OC and Laguna Beach, The Bad Girl's Club and The Ghost Whisperer are some of my favorites. There are more but who has time to list them all? Besides everything I love gets canceled so half of these shows probably won't be on anymore by the time you read this.

Books:

My favorites are Butterscotch Blues by Margaret Johnson Hodge, Anything by Pablo Neruda, Anything by Sonia Sanchez, The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros, Selah's Bed by Jenoyne Adams, Love's Reparations by Jackie Young and Waiting in Vain by Colin Channer. I'm currently reading Love by Leo Buscaglia. But the books closest to my heart are my own.

Heroes:

My only hero is Jesus Christ, yet I've still met some very impressive people in my life.
