My best work is done at night. Whether I have been out clubbing with my peeps or not I am usually up writing or yapping on the phone until at least 3AM, so I do not take kindly to being woken up at 6. The phone rang and it was one of my friends telling me to go to my computer.

Official Site: www.planetAbiola.com DARE is the adventurous, high energy,
smart, funny, sexy debut novel by BET host ABIOLA ABRAMS; A
sociologist who goes undercover and winds up in too deep as a racy
rapper searching for love in the crazy world of entertainment. Dare
has sizzle, lyrics, poetry and romance as well as spirituality and
motivation.
MEET
MAYA HOPE. Double-dipped in cocoa with brick-house curves, she's a
lover of jazz, a political poet, and a sociologist. Her best friend
and roommate, Athena, is her opposite in every way -- a petite
ex-cheerleader who's always blaring rap, grinding out rhymes, and
ready to take the next man home. When Maya is forced to pinch-hit
in an audition and bust Athena's rhymes, she finds herself on an
undercover escapade in the wild world of hip-hop as the raw, sexy,
roughneck Jezebel. After striking a deal with her own personal
devil, Maya sets off on the tempting roller-coaster ride of a
lifetime -- finding music, more fun than she's ever had, and even a
fine man or two...but not without consequences. Brimming with
electric sensuality, Abiola's DARE is an unforgettable,
envelope-pushing odyssey of two gutsy women playing by their own
rules. Does Maya find joy or lose herself?
