At least that\u2019s what clinical psychologist, Yasmin Ohaji has discovered counseling embittered couples for the last seven years. When she\u2019s ready to settle down, she\u2019ll be sure to find a man in the same socio-economic background, who has a P.H.D. and a six-figure income. The South African-born beauty is a certified knockout, with a healthy bank account and a gregarious, playful nature to go with her zany sense of humor. Her clients love her, her friends want to be her and men are desperate to date her. Yasmin has list of eligible, white-collar men on standby, everyone from politicians to executives but she\u2019s too busy building her private practice to be bothered with her numerous admirers. Professional boxer, Rashawn \u201cThe Glove\u201d Bishop, doesn\u2019t have time for women. He\u2019s training for what could be the biggest match of his career and he can\u2019t afford to be distracted. If he wins the fight, it will not only mean a huge payday, but will launch him into super stardom. A chance meeting with the Yasmin Ohaji, leaves RaShawn intrigued. For some reason he can\u2019t seem to get the lively, quick-witted beauty out of his mind. But how can he convince the ambitious, career driven woman to give him a chance when she thinks he\u2019s nothing but a thug? Rashawn sets out to win Yamin\u2019s heart, and when it\u2019s all said and done, their lives will never be the same again. <b><a id=\"Excerpt\" name=\"Excerpt\"><\/a><\/b><strong>Chapter One<\/strong> Rashawn \u201cThe Glove\u201d Bishop turned around and felt a stab of guilt. He sympathized with the guys he had just chased out of the restaurant.\u00a0 It wasn\u2019t their fault the woman in the tight, curve-hitting dress was stunning, was it? He was ogling her, making a complete and utter fool of himself, but he didn\u2019t divert his gaze. She probably thought he was just as corrupt as those young men were, but her photogenic smile was irresistible and he couldn\u2019t pull his eyes away. The look of annoyance on her face didn\u2019t impede her beauty. She was exquisite. A Nubian princess straight from the motherland. Her mink-black skin reminded him of whipped cocoa. She had thin eyebrows, a delicate nose and the biggest, brightest eyes he had ever seen. They were as deep as the Atlantic, round and bright. Under the subdued, overhead lights, her eyes glittered like diamonds. Beaded earrings dangled from her ears, a chocker graced her neck, and gold bangles hung from her wrists. She had a one-of-a-kind look that made her stand out in a room full of women who were trying too damn hard. Her vibrant, copper-brown hair was an abundance of twists and Rashawn had to fight the urge to reach out and touch them. Her locks weren\u2019t as wild as Lauryn Hill, but they were just as thick. The definition and tone of her arms and her healthy figure told him she was no stranger to diet and exercise. She had the kind of body he liked, all curves, all woman. \u201cI\u2019m sorry about that, Ms. They obviously don\u2019t know better.\u201d Yasmin eyed her defender. The stranger had a gravity about him that intrigued her. He had to be of mixed heritage, because his skin was more beige than brown. She couldn\u2019t see beyond his steel-blue suit, but the way his jacket gripped his shoulders and draped casually over his chest told her everything she needed to know. He had a solid upper body, a flat stomach, and not an ounce of fat. He was a regular at a fitness club or had damn good genes. Either way, he was appealing in every sense of the word. His hair was corn rowed, in an intricate criss cross design. He wore a cologne that smelled like the great outdoors and reminded her of the carefree summer days of past. Yasmin loved his goatee, the quickness of his smile and the sensual tone of his voice. Unlike Cecil, she could listen to him talk all night. He had a host of attractive physical qualities, but his dreamy baritone was definitely his greatest charm. She shattered the silence, by saying, \u201cThank you. I really appreciate that.\u201d \u201cNo problem. I would have done something sooner, but\u2026\u201d Rashawn trailed off when he noticed her date was standing behind her, scowling. \u201cAgain, it was my pleasure.\u201d With that, he turned and stalked away.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0Kimani Books ISBN-13: 978-0373860913 \u00a0&gt; Amazon \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0&gt; B&amp;N Opposites don\u2019t attract.
