About the Book

CYBER BLUES is initially centered on three female characters who explore the Internet chat rooms looking for friendships, love, and romance as they encounter deceit, phoniness, pain, and hurtful games where the rules change by the seconds as integrity is tested at the highest level. 

CYBER BLUES reveals each character’s emotional addiction to a cyber world of do’s and don’ts which separates them from the have and the have-nots.

Marlene Givens, a shy widow, is quickly swept off her feet by a crafty, conniving “Don Juan” who wants to play with her emotions as he sends her on a wild goose chase.

Margo Chapman, a pearl of wisdom and an entrepreneur, searches for fun and entertainment on the Internet which spirals into love, but ignores her own motherly advice.

Roberta Thompson, a gifted, talented poet and writer finds her niche as an international performer on the Internet, as she takes risks that lead her down romantic paths and empty perceptions where she triumphs in the end. 

The Internet reminds you of the old man that hid behind video images and sound effects as a lost soul tried to find her way back home. It was a crazy journey. On the World Wide Web, many people from all walks of life validate the addiction everytime they hit the on and off button on their computers. The cyber world becomes your home as you click the mouse endless times to experience a variety of adventures. Some find it becomes there only home in their hearts and minds. While others discover that the blues is just a temporary place full of deceit, lust, love, romance and intrigue until they return back to reality.

CYBER BLUES concludes with a powerful ending as each character realizes that time waits for no one and romance can be defined in many cyber degrees. That deception is just a keystroke away from the truth and that honesty lives in the heart no matter what world of blues you call home.
