French Refreshed


Book Description

Simplicity is the new era of chic. Despite the grandeur in which Louis XIV and his descendants Louis XV and Louis XVI lived in the magnificent Château de Versailles, extravagance rarely suggests elegance these days. Befitting spaces less assumedly scaled than the vast palace, alluring, of-the-moment interiors exude a more discreet cachet. Clean, not stuffy, reflects our culture and the times. Betty Lou Phillips is the author of fourteen books on French and Italian design, including the award-winning Villa Décor. A professional member of the American Society of Interior Designers, her work has been featured in countless magazines and newspapers. Additionally, she has appeared on the Oprah Winfrey Show. She lives in Dallas, Texas.

Fly Betty


Book Description

Essence magazine bestselling author Treasure Blue, brings you Fly Betty, the third installment in the acclaimed Harlem Girl Lost series featuring a twentysomething woman who is determined to use what she’s got to get what she wants. In the multi-billion dollar a year entertainment industry there is a secret society of women that few are privy to. All of these women are vying for one thing—an opportunity to live a luxurious, lavish lifestyle by snagging a rich and famous singer, rapper, or athlete. But being drop-dead gorgeous and super fly are only pieces of what it takes to catch one of these wealthy and highly sought-after young millionaires. Where luck, timing, and persistence can be determining factors on the surface, deceit, lies, and manipulation are what it really takes to have a chance at catching their men. Betty Blaise, or Fly Betty to those who truly know her, was not in it to be a wife or even the baby momma of a wealthy public figure—she had her sights set higher, much higher. While most of these women use sex as their weapon of choice, Betty, a senior majoring in psychology, has developed a weapon that proves much more powerful. Up until now Betty has lived her life according to her own strict rules and standards, refusing to compromise for anyone, even if it potentially meant shielding herself from true love. But when she encounters a man that she would never have anticipated falling for in a million years, soon, the very rules Betty once lived and died by are going to be put to the test. The very tools she used so effectively against wealthy men begin to turn against her—and deadly consequences are sure to follow.
