From the Publisher
Funny-from beginning to end, lets you know that you are not alone in the game of love.

From the Inside Flap
In a world where love is dying
sex is used as a weapon,
jealousy and hate feed on each other
and dreams and reality become nightmares -
a man and a woman will try
to beat the odds before the worms
have their say.

Ummmph Blackfunk!
This was a good book, I wasn't sure if I would like it but I am glad I did decide to purchase it. I couldn't get enough of this book. I didn't understand what the title of the book ment, but now I do. Some people like blackfunk and some people don't. I think I would enjoy blackfunk, lol!

Love is out there, you just have to find it
Have you ever read a book that you just don't get?  That's the way I felt reading this book. The author does not do a good job of creating the synopsis of the book until close to the end.  I'm not sure what the main focus of the book was, but if I had to guess I would say it was vaguely about honesty and trust in relationships.

The book opens with Andria catching her boyfriend Paul in bed with the neighbor, Florence. Andria yells and screams for them both to get out. Paul packs his stuff and leaves.

Now we have Rashun, a tall, dark chocolate brother that is a high powered attorney. He has given up on finding a good, faithful woman. He finds a video tape of his girlfriend with another man. This man is performing blackfunk on her.  Now in order to find out what blackfunk is, you have to read the book.

Rashaun and Andria meet at a club and they are both smitten with each other. They get to know each other over the months, and then it gets serious. They both have trials and tribulations that they go through with all the emotional baggage they bring to their relationship.

There is a part in the book about a priestess that is very entertaining that makes this book worth reading. You will read about the interesting way Rashaun and Andria get rid of their demons.  You'll also understand what blackfunk is and how it affects Rashaun and Andria's lives.

WHOA????
The title and the cover grabbed me. It's slow in the beginning I guess it's the introduction. OH MY BLACKFUNK???? The meaning is WHOA???? This book has you asking yourself is this for real? The typos are so perturbing, it's hard to get lost in a book where you're trying to figure out was this the word the author wanted to use! It's an interesting book, it has a sequel that gets a little hotter.
