Book excerpt: Keke McCoy, a.k.a Brandy, an overworked and underpaid journalist, is given the opportunity to write the story of a lifetime. Unfortunately, the story hits close to home and she is forced to deal with demons she thought were buried ten years--and forty pounds--ago when she left her former life as one of Atlanta's premier exotic dancers. Monaka, the dancer who took Keke's place at The Honey Spot--a female owned strip club outside of Atlanta, Georgia--is brutally murdered while giving a private dance. Keke has to face the feelings of betrayal her dance sisters and former benefactor, HoneyMama, felt when she wrote the article that allowed her to change professions, and unfortunately also gave both stripping and The Spot, as it is affectionately called, more bad press than good. Her boss, Charlie, pressures Keke to "dig deeper" and choose between her loyalty to The Spot and her desire to pen an award-winning article that could make or break her career as a writer. She also speaks candidly about her unpredictable sex life with her lover, Ian, who is never around when she needs him, and her attempt to stay strong and not give into the advances of her ex-boyfriend, Drew, a detective assigned to the case. With her best friend, Shelley, Keke discusses self-esteem issues, her choices in men, and her desire to find her "spot" again. The Honey Spot is a sensually mysterious read that keeps the reader guessing in more ways than one. In the end, all of the characters finally get the justice that they deserve.
