Deja Vu' Desires

About the Book

Devina is a 25-year old virgin consumed by the vision of her veiled prince. One day while she is leaving work, Devina accidentally bumps into a man who catches her in his strong arms, preventing her from falling. Devina is stunned by the familiarity of his strong, yet lilting Caribbean voice asking if she is okay. She is unable to respond because she is captivated by the love, passion, and desire she sees in his light brown eyes - - her body flushed with heated arousal as her skin remembers his sensual touch; her senses heightened as she inhales the euphoric scent of his cologne. As she gazes deeply into his familiar eyes, inhales his fresh breath and swallows bits of what seems to be his very essence, Devina wonders if her years of fantasizing have finally collided with her reality.
