5.0 out of 5 stars Great authors-great anthology 22 Nov 2000
By Harriet Klausner - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
"Second Chance" by Rochelle Alers. In Washington DC, fifty-three years old widow Leigh Walcott badly twists her ankle. She is rushed to the emergency room of a nearby hospital where she meets Dr. Scott Alexander. They are immediately attracted to one another, which is a surprise for Leigh who has not thought of a male in three decades since her husband died. Over a series of dinners at Leo's supper club they fall in love.

"Eye of the Beholder" by Donna Hill. Tara Mitchell takes her best friend English professor and gospel singer Jae Crawford to Leo's to celebrate the latter's birthday. Though feeling out of her element at the nightclub, Jae meets Clyde Burrell and soon love is on the menu.

"Main Agenda" by Brenda Jackson. Four years ago, Raven Anderson and Lincoln Corbain met and shared a romance on a Black College Weekend in Daytona. Lincoln wanted to continue their relationship, but never found Raven when he traveled to Tallahassee to see her. Now she has entered Leo's as he sits at the bar. Can the memory of that glorious weekend become more than just a personal history tidbit and turn into a lasting relationship?

"Sweet Temptation" by Francis Ray. Howard University teacher and Texas Ranger Chase Braxton and confectionery shop owner Julie Ann Ferrington go on a blind date to Leo's. The two immediately hit it off as sparks fly.

Fans of urban contemporary romance, especially African-American tales, will fully relish this anthology. Each story is well written and quite entertaining. The four lead couples are charming as they welcome the readers into their hearts.

5.0 out of 5 stars I Couldn't Put It Down... 3 Feb 2001
By "misslove" - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
These ladies are LETHAL!! Welcome to Leo's is a tastefully crafted ensemble of amorous, sensual, and eloquent stories about love, surrender, trust, and understanding...all centrally located at the fictitious supper club, Leo's, in our Nation's Capital.

This esoteric compilation fuses the writing talents of Rochelle Alers, Donna Hill, Brenda Jackson, & Francis Ray, who each present a story that rapturously embraces a common theme...finding love at Leo's. Each author's unique ability to create longing, sexual tension, euphoria, and passion makes 'Welcome to Leo's' a delightful read. The effulgent love stories intertwined with the artistic capability of these authors to verbally pluck emotions and visually elicit stimulating images of ardor, makes this chronicle of tales extremely difficult to put down, but very easy to finish.

My personal favorite was the short story `Main Agenda', which extended the satisfaction of success in a women's life to include love instead of excluding it. Make sure you allot enough time to read this book from cover to cover, because after you start reading it, you won't want to put it down.
