Recensione:

Advance praise for Tracy Price-Thompson’s Chocolate Sangria

Praise for the national bestseller Black Coffee

“A page-turner that explores the dangerous liaison between two soldiers.” —Essence

“A racy tale of romance and ambition in the military.” —The Washington Post

“Price-Thompson has set this novel among a seldom-written-about group, African Americans in the military. . . . An excellent job of showcasing a lifestyle not often glamorized by contemporary novelists.” —Booklist

“Puts a literal spin on the war between the sexes . . . This is not a light-hearted, sweet-talking love story, but an energizing slice of ultracontemporary romance.” —Publishers Weekly
