Tinsel Town is about to learn a few lessons from a Southern doctor with the courage to win the heart of a man who swore no woman ever would.

If it doesn't have a scientific basis, Dr. Laney Olivia Houston doesn't believe in it and that includes love at first sight. One encounter is all takes with Raphael Baptiste for her to realize her life is changed forever.

Jazz musician, Raphael Baptist is no stranger to women or their beds. When an illness strikes, his life is thrown into turmoil. Can a quiet Southern belle look beyond his past and capture his heart?

"WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN, is a combination of love and suspense. There are enough of both to keep the reader interested in both plots. There are many characters, but each stands out with his/her own personality, which makes it easy to keep them separate. It also offers good advice on forgiveness and moving on. I would recommend this book for lovers of romance, as well as suspense."
RAWSISTAZ.com (4 out of 5 Rating)

"WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN is a powerful testament of perseverance. The character development flows intimately with the story line, making you part of the Baptiste family. The romance, while believable, instills hope in the love that is available in the world. Taylor-Jones' sophomore project definitely proves she has the gift of writing page-turning romance. Can't wait to see what she has coming out next."
Affaire de Coeur - Reviewer's Pick

"It is rare that a romance novel begins with one person madly in love with the other and both parties aware of the feelings and the courtship. Most of the time the romance evolves between two strangers or when one person is unaware of the other's feelings. This is a fresh look at romance. Trying to figure out whether or not Vic would succumb to A.J.'s advances and exactly how A.J. would convince Vic to take a chance on love with him will keep readers intrigued."
Multicultural Romance Reviews (9/10 Rating)

Nursing administrator Victoria Bennett has soured on love. She has sworn off men; they bring too much drama and too much pain into her life. That is, until she meets pediatrician A. J. Baptiste, a single parent who is determined to woo her. A. J. will stop at nothing to have her, and Victoria finds her resolve put to the test...but is this a fight she really wants to win?

"LaConnie Taylor-Jones shows us what true love is when it is in its purest form. She is definitely an author everyone should be on the look-out for."
RAWSISTAZ.com

"This is a fast-paced story with a plot that focuses on family, trust, and redemption."
Romance in Color

"Tenderness, passion, and mystery shine through in WHEN I'M WITH YOU. Marcel and Caitlyn are destined to be together no matter the twists and turns in the road to "happily ever after"."
Multicultural Romance Writers

Marcel Baptiste is a wealthy entrepreneur and philanthropist. He meets Caitlyn Thompson, the head of a struggling youth center, when she appeals to his philanthropic foundation for funding. Marcel is smitten and begins wooing her, but she is a hard sell: she has relocated to Oakland after being beaten and raped by Cole, her controlling ex, and is very gun-shy when it comes to men. As Marcel falls more deeply under her spell, he decides that merely loving her isn't enough: he must also help her vanquish the ghosts of her past.

About me:
LaConnie Taylor-Jones :: Romance—old school style

Hey thanks for stopping by and welcome to The Novels of LaConnie Taylor-Jones here at MySpace! I'm Dr. Alcee Jules Baptiste (better known as AJ to family and close friends) and I'm the one who will acquaint you with all you'll find and learn while you're here...

So, who am I exactly? Well, I'm the leading man in my creator's (LaConnie Taylor-Jones) latest novel, WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN.

I'm a Pediatrician and received my Medical Degree from Howard University - GO BISON!
I'm the 2nd oldest male in my family, but I'm 3rd born of 6 siblings.
I'm single, yet I'm the PROUD father of two beautiful adopted twin daughters, Taylor and Tyler.

So as you can see my life is complete. Well, almost complete; the only person missing in it is - Victoria (Vic) Bennett! Okay, I'm in love with this woman and I've been trying to get next to her for months!! But she avoids me and tells me constantly she wants nothing to do with love and even less to do with me. Whatever happened in Vic's last relationship put a hurtin' on her so bad that it has been impossible for any man to get close and love her like she deserves to be love. I thought that I could push pass her protests but now she's on the run.

So what is a man to do? Well, I called on the creative pen of LaConnie Taylor-Jones to help me out. My oldest brother, Marcel Baptiste, swears by LaConnie's abilities and what happened for him and Caitlyn in WHEN I'M WITH YOU — which won her the Romance Slam Jam 2008 Debut Author of the Year Award by the way.

So check out my story, WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN and I'll let you be the judge if my life is complete in the end or not!
