The Book...
Lady Belle Moore is a diamond in one of the roughest cities in the country. Born and raised in Baltimore, Maryland (B-More); Lady has the combination of street smarts, style, and intelligence that would allow anyone to survive anything. She grew up in an environment where drugs, fast money, fast women, and broken dreams were introduced to her way before she could pronounce her first words.
Moving to Los Angeles to pursue her dancing career in order to obtain success and a better life would bring Lady face-to-face with her personal and family demons. In her fight, she discovers the hard, but real truth: what you don't see is more real than what you do see.
Will Lady allow demons to overtake her like she watched the adults around her die slowly as they lost their battles, or will she win?
WHAT PEOPLE ARE ALREADY SAYING ABOUT LADY B. MOORE:
Being from Brooklyn, becoming a man in Baltimore, working in Hollywood, and then being born again; I can taste, feel, and smell every transition of this novel. Lady B. Moore is where the "Coldest Winter Ever" meets the "Prodigal Son".
--KEL SPENCER, Emcee/Songwriter (3rd Power Music Group)
A MUST READ for every woman, young and old. I COULDN'T PUT THE BOOK DOWN!
--SAMANTHA "BABY SAM" SELOLWANE, National Urban Promotions Director (JIVE Records)
This is a much needed story that shows how you must first master yourself, before you master your gifts; so that your gifts don't destroy you. It shows how your trials and tribulations prepare you for your life destiny. Embrace them, learn from them, and keep it movin!
Tova writes about real life. Her insight and honesty is both hip and wise. From the depths of the dangerous inner city through the slow, often painful process of spiritual growth as the result of hard lessons, Tova's character emerges with the realization that evil really does exist; but God does too! Tova is a fresh, new voice with a bright future. Lady B. Moore is sure to appeal to women of all ages.
--KATHY WILLIAMSON, Editor-in-Chief (Our Weekly)
"If you dare to Be More, let Lady B Moore show you how. It's a story so real and inspiring... you've got to read it."

The Writer
In the beginning was The Word...
Introducing a writer who was called to write the words that were predestined to be written since the beginning. Tova emerges into the literary scene with her first novel, and she is ready to tell it all!
Tova was born in Baltimore, MD as the first grandchild on both sides of the family. While her mom was pregnant, she was watching movies and took notice of the name "Tova" in the movie credits. Because of its uniqueness, her mom chose that name. Tova, meaning "good" in Hebrew, grew up in Baltimore learning survival skills that most haven't experienced unless they grew up in an inner city where death was always right around the corner.
Tova always had a way with words. Being creative was something that she could use to express herself, and escape the reality of being surrounded by drug addiction, alcoholism, and other things that she noticed were destroying the adults around her. Even then, she knew she had a HIGHER calling. Realizing that it takes more than imagination to escape the trappings of this world, she came face-to-face with the Truth.
Now...after many experiences, she has many stories to tell, and a testimony that can cause an unbeliever to believe.
She is currently on her “More Than a Book Tour”. She also has done speaking engagements for Western High School (Unity Day), The National Association of Negro Business and Professional Women’s Association Entrepreneur’s Luncheon, and Making the Right Moves Entertainment Conference in Baltimore, MD to name a few. She is also a poet, gracing different spoken word venues throughout the country.
Tova is also the CEO/Founder of Goood Books, LLC., a publishing company that is producing a new genre of books that tell stories about “real-life”… the hard life, that not everyone talks about, with a WAY of escape to a better one...a real one. There are three books slated to release in 2007.
Previously, she has worked in Sales at Black Enterprise Magazine, production for BET, and for King Management (Jamie Foxx’s Management Company). She is a graduate of Morgan State University and Western High School.
She has one beautiful daughter.
"Goood words are needed. I wasn't created to fit inside the box...I was BORN to be different."--TOVA
