Book Reviews of Casanegra: A Tennyson Hardwick Novel

Book Review: "Ten" is a Winner.
Summary: 5 Stars

Blair Underwood with the help of Tananarive Due and Steven Barnes delivers a new hero Tennyson "Ten" Hardwick who is a fresh as the tabloid headlines. The pace is fast with many twists and turns as the reader delves into the underside of the "rapper" music scene.
An old client turns up for an afternoon's delight that holds hints of a future, but before the night is over Serena "Afrodite" Johnson is found wrapped in trash bags and Ten is suspect number one.
Plenty of family problems keep this novel moving and interesting, heavy sex no longer carries a story for the reader. There must be something more substantial and CASANEGRA delivers.

Summary of Casanegra: A Tennyson Hardwick Novel

Casanegra follows the adventures of Tennyson Hardwick, a gorgeous, sexy actor and former gigolo, living on the fringes of the good life in Hollywood. This story, which chronicles the redemption of a prodigal son, combines the glamour of Hollywood with the seedy hopelessness of the inner city.

In this hot and steamy mystery, Tennyson struggles to hang on to his acting career and redeem his sex-for-pay history, which estranged him from his family -- especially his father, a decorated LAPD captain who raised Tennyson to call him "sir." Now, in the wake of his father's sudden stroke, Tennyson has to save himself from taking the fall for the first murder of a female rapper. In the process he discovers his hidden talents -- the hard way.
