- What
inspired you to write this book?
I
was inspired to write the A Louisiana Love Series after I wrote about the
families in my Christmas books Love Me Again and Never
Looking Back. I needed to explore these families a little deeper and
they made sure I knew it.
- What
can we expect from you in the future?
I’m
presently working on another four-book series and a Christmas release that will
go out this year with friends.
- Where
did you come up with the names in the story?
Lots
of African American families keep with the same initials in their family,
especially, if the husband and wife have that initial. So, these families have
stuck to that tradition.
- What
did you enjoy most about writing this book?
With
all three, I loved writing up into the plots. For the first time I really had
no clue what my plot would be. I wanted to try writing without grafting and it
worked for me. I also really enjoyed digging for another language. I wanted to
incorporate Spanish since the characters were Latino, and it was amazing.
- Tell
us about your main characters- what makes them tick?
When
I think about the main family, The Booth Family…
the
wife, Jessica Booth, is definitely the matriarch of her family.
her
husband, Jasper Booth Sr., is a witty mild-mannered man.
their
adopted son, Kane Jackson Booth, is a hothead who is eventually going to figure
out why he’s so angry.
their
son, Jasper Jr., is a complete smart mouth who I’d like to say is me as a guy,
and
their
daughter, Jasmine, is the typical spoiled baby girl of the family who has her
father’s heart and her mother’s stubbornness.
- If
your book was made into a film, who would you like to play the lead?
Angela
Bassett would definitely me Lady Jessica Booth.
Laurence
Fishburne would be Jasper Booth Sr.
Will
Smith would be Dr. James Booth.
Gabrielle Union would be Jasmine Booth.
LaLa
Anthony would be Veronica Kimbrel-Booth.
The
Sisters Valerie (Salma Hayak) & Vashti- (Eva Longoria)
Jennifer
Lopez would be Selena Cox.
Fantasia Barrino would be Jade Booth.
Rome
Flynn would be Vance Kimbrel Jr.
The
Perfect Chance
A
Louisiana Love Book 3
by
Danyelle Scroggins
Genre:
Contemporary Romance
Kane and Veronica’s
wedding became the perfect backdrop for the next Faith Temple
Cathedral wedding, as Damon proposed to Selena. Although it felt
right from the beginning, things are progressing, and Selena is
starting to feel something pricking about her response.
Newly
married Veronica Booth and her sister-in-love, Jasmine Kimbrel, have
decided to throw an exclusive couples event for all the couples of
Faith Temple Cathedral who were instrumental in their life and
wedding. And although there are a few singles in attendance, most of
them are engaged or have someone they’ve labeled as a close friend
or potential love interest. As soon as it seems that everything is
going how they envisioned, The
Perfect Chance
to do what is right, instead of what appears pressured, brings two
people to a space that neither of them saw coming.
Austin
Davenport has been in love with Selena since she walked into Vance’s
room at Louisiana Day Hospital. And although she pulled away from him
and into another man’s arms, Austin’s committed to standing in
faith. Will his faith pay off by presenting The
Perfect Chance
for Austin to win back her heart, or will he have to pick up the
pieces of his broken heart?

decision that could cost them their forever after.
Right

school of love, making
The
Wrong Decision because
of someone else’s wrong decision, can
bring love to a breaking point and destroy what God has plans to put
together.
Now,
that Veronica is heading home, she has to face the facts that she’s
just as bad as Kane. But what she does not know is, Kane has come
face to face with his own facts and is preparing a surprise that will
altar their very lives, and at the same time bring joy and healing to
their hearts.
Jasmine
is now Jasmine Kimbrel, the wife of Vance Kimbrel but her Jessica

between she and Jasper Sr.

this be another Booth surprise to remember? Or will The Wrong
Decision ruin their chances at being the one big happy
family everyone respects?
The Right Choice
A Louisiana Love Book 1
Jasmine
Booth has fallen in love over the Christmas holiday to Vance Kimbrel
Jr. and neither of them are willing to let the other go their
separate ways. If you were born in a pentecostal, Baptist, or
protestant home, you know the cardinal rule when it comes to living
with someone with whom you have not married. It’s the imaginary
eleventh commandment…Thou Shalt Not Shack, and both Jasmine and
Vance have decided to break the rules.
In
The Right Choice, Jasmine Booth, the one and only daughter of Jasper
Sr. and Jessica Booth, has made a choice that has made neither of her
parents proud. She’s moving to California to become the live-in
woman of Vance Kimbrel Jr., and she refuses to change her mind
because her family calls it sin.
Jasmine
feels like she’s old enough to make her own choices and decisions,
but questions whether or not Vance will still respect her in the
end.
Vance
has found the love of his life. Now, coupled with his two main goals,
finishing college and going into the league, he’s now added,
becoming the husband of Jasmine Booth.
Something
will happen to make Jasmine question whether or not the right choice
was made. But in the end, it was Jasmine’s choice to make.
Will
this choice lead them in a direction that’s deeper than
disappointing their parents? Or, will both Jasmine and Vance learn a
lesson that will last a life time.
One
thing is for sure, we all are entitled to make choices, but the
question will always remain, Are we willing to endure the Consequence
or our choice? And, Whether or not it was, The Right Choice.
