The Velvet Rope

GREAT

READ IT FIVE TIMES AND STILL WANT TO READ IT.....ENOUGH SAID

Kinky As You Wanna Be

Brenda Thomas returns with another erotic literary rendezvous. Tiffany Johnson has gone into business for herself with Teaz Entertainment. At what should be a joyous time, things come crashing down around her as she learns her fiancé and sister know each other a little too well. Still reeling from the shock, her personal life spills over into her new business venture and vice versa. She doesn't know if she's coming or going or which way is up or down as she delves deep into a sexual abyss.

While the sex scenes were hot, that alone couldn't make up for a just okay story. The Velvet Rope was by no means a bad book, but it doesn't begin to touch the momentum of Threesome or even Fourplay. Ms. Thomas seems to have veered off course, but I hope not for long.

Real Affairs

The Velvet Rope had a life like feel to it. It was hard for me to put this book down. It liked the fact that Tiffany wasn't just a woman but a woman with business. And the affairs seemed so real. I would recommend this to high school and up.

good work Brenda

Off The Hook !!

As soon as you start reading this book you will not want to put it down until the very end. Tiffany is a piece of work. A smart, successful young woman, you will hardly believe the decisions she makes. Mixing business and 'pleasures' as you would hardly imagine with a twisted family of men who are into much more than tactless business practices and sexcapades. This is a must read. Brenda Thomas has never let me down and if The Velvet Rope is just her 2nd novel I can't wait to read all the ones to come!! I am sure Threesome is sure to be a treat.

really good

i think that the book was really good. & what i liked about it the most was it had a lot of DRAMA, so if your someone who loves drama, i think this is one of many books you should read

This book is a bannga!

You gotta read this book. if you haven't you don't know what your missing. its such a twist and turn in this story.

Good Read

This book was so good I went out the next day and bought Threesome. This book keeps you wanting to know what's going to happen next. This book really lets you know even the beautiful have problems.

All that glitters ain't Gold; but this is a Work of Art

The drama starts right from the beginning and doesn't stop until the very end. Brenda L. Thomas, where have you been? Your characters are so defined and each event is detailed wonderfully. This book caught my attention just as a velvet rope would in a theater and the story flowed as smoothly as the touch of the same velvet rope.

it was good

I liked this book it was great i loved all the drama that keep me in the book

Intriguing family drama

Public relations expert Tiffany Johnson decides to go for her dream to become the ¿Philly queen of the night¿; she quits her successful career at Platinum Images and forms a partnership with her sister Kamille, her fiancé Malik Skinner, and her best friend Essence to open up in a few months a club, Teaz Entertainment. She also obtains backing from suburbia¿s Greg ¿D-Dog¿ and his father........................ As the club becomes the in-spot, Tiffany learns that her fiancé and her sister shared a one night stand in college that they hid from her; her nephew Kareem could be a result of that fling. The cops begin investigating the money trail of the club as drugs and mob ties surface with the link seemingly being D-Dog and dad. Tiffany¿s dream has taken a nightmarish spin with no one for her to depend on or trust except herself............................ This intriguing family drama smoothly switches from first person accounts to third person so that the audience obtains a deep character study. The ensemble cast is easy to delineate one from another, but Tiffany receives the most empathy though she is far from an innocent babe. The story line feels like an African-American 2005 Peyton Place as it seems everyone is doing in everyone else; thus readers will feel no empathy to any character. Still Brenda L. Thomas provides a strong look at the downside of hanging with the in-crowd, which proves to be more glitter than gold.................................. Harriet Klausner
