Latter Rain (2009)
Isaac's out of jail and has committed his life to God. But which road will he take? Will he revisit his old life of crime? Or will he embrace the respectable future as provider and protector for the woman he loves and the child they share? Sure, hustling wasn't easy, but Isaac was a master at ruling the underworld?a self-made CEO of the streets. And then came Nina. She dared to show him Christ's love and her way changed all the rules. Now all Isaac wants is to live by God's Word and win Nina back. Though when the past catches up with him, and tragedy creeps through the back door, all bets may be off... Will he prove to his enemies?and to Nina?that the lure of the streets no longer has any power over him?

Former Rain (2008)
When it rains it pours, just ask Elizabeth Underwood or Nina Lewis. They thought the unfaithful men in their lives caused their storms, but as they are forced on a journey of self-examination, they realize that something greater than a "do right" man is needed to heal the hurts that trouble their souls.
Kenneth Underwood and Isaac Walker want to rid themselves of the selfish, ungrateful women in their lives. Kenneth, a successful businessman, is planning to divorce Elizabeth, his wife of 7 years. Isaac, a man of the street and Nina's former lover, has a more final solution to rid himself of his problem.
Will they allow the grace of God to heal and restore the shattered lives they have created, or are they forever destined to go through the storm?

Through The Storm (2008)
Isaac Walker was once a heavy-handed drug lord, who was proud of the fact that everybody feared him. But after dedicating his life to Christ, Isaac begins snatching wayward souls out of darkness and into God's marvelous light. That is, until the day the people Isaac ministered to start coming up missing and someone begins terrorizing him and his family. Before giving his life over to the Lord, Isaac would have handled this situation with a Glock, but now that his only weapons were his Bible and prayer he is counting on God to send His angels to help him fight this battle.
Iona Walker is successful, beautiful and every bit as cold-blooded as her father, Isaac Walker once was. As a lawyer she represents some of the most unsavory criminals in her city. Guilt or innocence doesn't matter to Iona; cash is what counts. Iona is on her way to achieving wealth, and she doesn't care that she had to turn her back on God to get it. But when both her parents are put in life threatening situations, Iona discovers that all the money in the world won't help her get a prayer through to God.

Rain Storm (2007)
Beautiful and lethal, Cynda Stephens, expects nothing from life but the same kick in the head she's always been given. Wearing her anger and bitterness on her sleeve, Cynda's hatred for life and men grow as her addictions grow and force her into prostitution. Keith Hosea Williams is a God fearing man who had always refused to compromise his spiritual walk. But when he is convinced that God has called him to marry Cynda, will he allow her lifestyle and addictions, as well as what man thinks, to overpower the will of God?
Despite each of their personal struggles, Cynda's heart opens up for Keith in ways that she never expected, but her thoughts of unworthiness eventually cause her to run away from a love she desperately wants to call her own. She then discovers another love even greater than the love Keith has given her. It's a love that she had been blind to, but a love that had been with her for all the days of her life; a love that refuses to let her go no matter how hard she tries to fight it off. But until she accepts this love into her life, into her heart, only then can she receive all that God has to offer.

I am an Essence best-selling author, playwright, and motivational speaker. I have been writing since about the age of eight or nine. As a child I wrote poetry and short stories. As an adult I began writing stage plays and novels. However, it wasn't until I committed my life to the Lord in 1994 that I realized all gifts and anointings come from God. I then set out to write redemption stories that glorified God.
To date, I have written the Rain Series and the Storm Series. The books in the Rain Series are: Former Rain, Abundant Rain, and Latter Rain. The books in the Storm Series are: Rain Storm and Through The Storm. These books have received rave reviews, winning Best Christian Fiction Awards and topping numerous Bestseller's lists. I have also edited two anthologies, This Far by Faith and Have a Little Faith.
I self-published my first three books, then in 2006 I signed a five-book deal with Urban Christian/Kensington. My books can now be found in Wal-Mart, most all major bookstores, including African American bookstores and online bookstores such as Amazon.com.
I am a dedicated Christian and devoted mother. In 2007 Vanessa was ordained by her church as an exhorter. Which of course, I believes was the right position for me because God has called me to exhort readers and to help them rediscover their place with the Lord.
I am also a graduate of Capital University with a degree in Organizational Communication.
