"Day delivers a lively romance." --RT Book Reviews
The Blue-Collar Lover Series
Meet the Carter brothers, five hard-working men with a lot to offer. They may not be wealthy but they're rich in integrity and loyalty--not to mention sex appeal. They just need the right women to share their world. . .
At thirty, eldest brother Byron hasn't dated seriously in a while--not since he became a single dad to his beloved baby girl. Besides, he's found that most women can't see past his job as a bus driver, and he's not interested in that type of superficial foolishness. When he meets Cynthia Hall, her disinterest is obvious. Still, there's something about her. . .
Cynthia has been successful in her career and unlucky in love. But those two worlds collide when Byron ends up in her office on business. It's a coincidence that casts him in a very different light than she's previously seen. Too bad he's not the upscale professional Cynthia had in mind. Yet given the chance, she might discover that while money can't buy happiness--a loving and passionate man can. . .

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Somehow the friendship between Bryon and Cynthia made me think of Valerie Garner Green and her husband in Beverly Jenkins’ “Black Lace”. Did Val have a problem with the fact that her man was a mail carrier and did it bother him that his wife was world famous? Somehow I don’t think it was a concern. Historically men have had problems with women making more money. Add to that all the injustices of slavery where he had to watch his woman submit herself to the lusty desires of the owner or overseer, black men can’t always accept this. In the beginning Cynthia is a user in a lot of ways. She wants to sleep with Byron, but feels he’s not up to her standard. Reminds me of a lot of the professional women I knew when I was younger. They couldn’t find a young black professional, so they hooked up with men they felt were beneath them. These were often men who treated them well despite how badly they were treated. Cynthia did come to her senses.I liked the fact that the characters were believable even if they weren’t likeable.
