PONTIA DELEON is a college coed at Langston Hughes College in the state of Louisiana. She is quite excited about moving up to the rank of lead majorette in her Junior Year. Her college love, Dominique Charles, is a star quarterback and sprinter at Langston Hughes College, NFL bound, and is very desirous of making Pontia Mrs. Dominique Charles. Xavier DeLeon is her elder brother and is attending medical school at Columbia University in New York City. He is very bright and talented like his sister. As loyal siblings they frequently exchange their views of how they plan to conduct their lives, careers and loves. Pontia believes she has her goals in place. After she earns her bachelor's degree she intends to enter graduate school majoring in Journalism and Broadcasting. She loves Dominique very much but is not yet ready to hear her wedding bells ringing. Uncertain of how to handle the romantic developments of her relationship Pontia suddenly discovers that she has a secret admirer. She is puzzled by the mysterious multitude of red roses that appear at her doorstep. In time this secret turns public and even though the laws of attraction appear quite normal, family and friends have one particular concern: she and he do not share the same skin tone. Now Pontia must choose who will be the love of her life; by happenstance she finds herself in a delicious, White Chocolate situation.

Tastefully Done
May 28 2006

Format:Paperback
This was an enjoyable book to read. Even though it has been several years since I was in college I would actually reminisce about my campus life, the dating, the football games and the occasional drama with my peers. There are so many laughable scenes that make you think about whether it is better to follow your heart rather than to follow your mind. WhiteChocolate is a definite "Page Turner". Once again the author keeps the reader engrossed. I did not want it to end.

This book has it all -- fully developed and sympathetic characters, romance, intrigue, inviting locales, and a story line that immediately hooks the reader. This author skillfully and with a unique style brings all these elements together to create a highly entertaining work. The chocoholic and the non-chocoholic will enjoy this book.

One of a Kind
Dec 23 2006
By T. Ludlow
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Like the author's previous works this novel is in the format of a descriptive narrative. It may be a surprise to some yet, I welcomed the uniqueness that this written format brings. I am impressed with the effort the author has made. This saga carries a lot of sensibility and subtle intensity. While reading WhiteChocolate I wanted to be Xavier then I wanted to be Dominique. Seriously, should this book become a movie I would like to be casted as either guy. I really appreciated how the author developed each character; from beginning to end I felt they had matured from the various revelations realized. As a person of color this novel provided a truth that I do not read about often and that is how these young college students appreciated the diligent work of those who came before them. They have the mind-set that they will need to ready themselves for an internationally competitive world and they respect the times that their parents, grandparents, etc endured. I am very excited about this book because I can see that the author, Henrietta Elmore-Smith writes in a style all her own and I am ready for the next one.
