Figuring the Heart Family Out

There are a lot of books that concern the Hearts.





http://sylviahubbard.wordpress.com/2007/12/21/heart-novels/





I think that's the update version of the list.





there's also a category on this blog with the heart of Detroit in it





http://sylviahubbard.blogspot.com/search/label/Hearts%20of%20Detroit





Now to know the whole story, because in each book there are bits and pieces of the story here and there, but the one book that may say it all would be Sex Weed.

(I'm still in love with this cover)

You even get a glimpse into the famous King Heart so if you've never read it, get it, if you've read it, read it again.

Where in the world is Sylvia?

okay, cancel that flight gurl. I'm still alive

And no the ex didn't go crazy and kidnap me.

point blank...

i was frustrated with this love scene and (i'm about to do a TMI) I was horny as hell.

What does that have to do with anything?

I can't write a love scene when i'm horny. I can do a sex scene, but I needed a more emotional than a physical scene right now.

I mean I had the scene after the love scene in my mind and Red's getting restless waiting for it to hapen but it was like i was watching em and reese inthe bed and for some reason I couldn't see them anymore or what they did.

like the tape was messed up in the movie it was playing and it was truly frustrating.

i had to literally put this away and find another way to look into the room.

i found it (after i gots a little - don't ask) and now i'm ready to roll. (though i could stand a lil'bit more)

yeah, i know TMI

anyhoo, i got a look inside and i figured out why i couldn't see. in all my story writing i try not to fight what's happening, that's why i think you never see it coming CAUSE I DIDN'T EITHER and i just had to run with the punches, play clean up the mess and still figure out how to make these two knuckle heads have a happy ending

(because of thousands of threats from readers that they will hunt me down if i dont' give a happy ending).

well, i'm prone to throw shyte at the fan just because but when i fight the shyte, i can't see anymore - well, my brain shuts down because in all cases I do have to be true to my characters and it's wrong of me to step in and wish for a happy love making scene when it wasn't one.

(yeah, i just leaked a little)

But if you know me and you've read my works: I GOSH DURN DIFFICULT to figure out. You read me, but damn... i gotta live with me so trust me, I'm just as frustrated when I have to throw a bone in the middle of two hungry dogs and watch them fight it out just for the sick pleasure of watching chaos.

So. it's 3pm EST now. give me about another couple of hours though cause i gotta run down to get something for a friend and finish off.

Emperor's Addiction Chapter 21.1

small, but hopefully I'll have more.

 

Juanita's gonna get her just due, but I can't bring Cheyenne back nor is black making an appearance.

 

But Queen might come to handle some business. Remember, Emperor just got back from Chicago and you know whose there.

 

hint hint... Do you guys remember Paradise?

 

enjoy...

Author's Notes for 19.1

these are responses to comments made in 19.1 of Emperor's Addiction.

jr boss: that's not mandingo, it's luscious (which I think i spelled his name wrong on the family chart)

tori: yes, you will know eventually if that's really em's daughter

wild_horses (first of all welcome. don't think i've seen you around here before). HE'S GOING TO BE PISSED AS ALL GET OUT!!!

CB: a nervous breakdown? I was really going for an anxiety attack. (laughing evilly) I must work harder won't I?

Shon79 (first, I haven't seen you in a good decade, LOL. Hellow!) I will

Paula: You're up there with CB. I must be doing something right then. I'm going to let that skank Cheyenne die in jail. I've been working on Blaque in my head and no she won't make an appearance in this one, but you will hear about her because I'm preparing for the showdown between her and Onyx. She's on American soil you know Onyx has to take her down because of a long deep seated issue. (Blood don't mean anything in this family when wrong is wrong.)

I'll get back to Shadow

and just because you ask, I'll work Dalton in the game.


Game time: BTW, does anyone remember Jode's brother?

Winner gets a free e-copy of Cabin Fever.

Emperor's Addiction Chapter 19.1

I don't usually post on thursdays but the threatening emails, text messages and lastly the voice mail message left by my "Misery" #1 fan with threats to do me like Kathy Bates did to James Caan, prompted me to post the next part.

 

thanks for the encouraging me and stop refreshing ( I know who you are).

 

enjoy...

Emperor's Addiction Chapter 18.1

Where is the world was Sylvia?

 

Busy as all get out.

 

That's really all I can explain it as. I was durn busy with work, school, the kids and so many other things going on in my life.

 

It's nice to be happy at something and just enjoy being yourself.

 

I don't know if it's because of the beau's leaving or anything, but i'm having fun with my friends when I haven't done that in a while.

 

We laugh and talk about all sorts of stuff and I don't feel guilty for my feelings or have to be careful for voicing my opinion.

 

Most of all I don't fee l bad for being Sylvia and I found that I needed that.

 

I like friends. They make you feel that it's alright in the world and I think I want to marry my friend.

 

Now I just gotta get busy and find a friend who wants to marry me, LOL.

 

enjoy....

Emperor's Addiction Chapter 17

Yes, you're getting the entire chapter again.

I was really out of it for the past weekend. It wasn't just the holiday it was a mental stress break. If you guys have checked out my other blog yet at How to Love A Black Woman (www.loveablackwoman.blogspot.com) then you know about the 7 Days to Get Over Him

If you haven't visited the blog lately, I invite you to catch up on everything.

I've been out of commission for a while and I appreciate you holding on and seeing what's coming up next in this crazy mind of ours.

July (5)

• 7 Days to Get Over: Day 6- Know What I Want
• The Art of Touch Revisited: Guide to Intimacy
• Days To Celebrate
• Day Four and Five: Pamper and Appreciate
• fw: SISTERS ARE DOING IT FOR THEMSELVES: BLACK WOM...

• June (4)
  • 7 Days2Get Over-Day 3:Forgiveness/2Blessed2B Depre...
  • 7 Days To Get Over: Day Two - The Pain
  • 7 Days To Get Over: Day One India.Arie
  • My Brian McKnight worst night ever! Embarrassed to...

Make sure you start at Day One to get into it and find out what's going on to me. I haven't posted Day 7 yet, but I'm going to soon.

I'm trying to build up to it because it's going to be the last day I'm really allowed to feel like I've failed yet again.

You guys have been so patient with me this book and it's one of my hardest ones to write. Thank you.

As for how "weak" Reese is. I should let you know that you should never judge a book by its cover.

Humans have a basic skill and that's to survive and they will do whatever they have to do in a dangerous situation to do.

Reese knows Juanita is more vicious that what people see on the surface. She's experienced it all her life and she's only doing what she can to "survive."

okay, without going any further, enjoy...
