All Books By Zane
For successful African American businesswoman Zoe Reynard, finding the pleasure she wants, the way she wants it, is not worth the risk of losing everything she has: marriage to the man she has loved since childhood, a thriving company, three wonderful children. But Zoe feels helpless in the grip of an overpowering addiction–to sex.
Finding a therapist, Zoe finally summons the courage to tell her story, a tale of guilt and desire as shocking as it is compelling. From the sensitive artist with whom she spends stolen hours on rumpled sheets to the rough and violent man who draws her toward destruction, Zoe is desperately seeking fulfillment–and something darker. As her life spins out of control and her sexual escapades carry her toward a dangerous choice, Zoe races against time to uncover the source of her “fatal attraction.”

From the New York Times bestselling Queen of Erotica about what explodes when a man and woman–both suffering marital problems with their respective partners–coincidentally find themselves involved in a steamy love affair with each other despite the peril that looms at home.
Amanda is bored with life. She spends hours a day on Facebook, her parents act like they are too ancient to enjoy life any longer, and her military husband, Ralph, is deployed to Afghanistan. Gideon is not totally content at home either. His wife, Nina, is a lifetime overachiever and a workaholic. She has moved her mother into their home so she can have a live-in sitter, and Gideon has fallen to the bottom of her priority list.
On Black Friday 2012, both Amanda and Gideon end up at a Best Buy to take advantage of the massive price cuts. When the store opens its door at midnight, the potential customers rush the glass doors and end up in a brawl. Built-up excitement turns into mass pandemonium as the police show up in riot gear. Tear gas containers are being tossed around like lollipops and strangers are beating on each other like a heavyweight fight at the MGM Grand in Vegas.
Amanda and Gideon both end up in the skywalk overlooking the madness and, even though they are complete strangers to each other, the adrenaline rush overwhelms them and they discover quick ecstasy among the chaos. After putting their clothes back on, followed by making formal introductions, they embark on a sexual journey together that re-ignites the flames in their souls. Both are forced to make choices that they never thought would have to be made; marriages are placed at risk; heartbreak is inevitable. What starts out merely as casual sex becomes much more than mere physical attraction and their lives begin to unravel. No matter how incredible something wrong can make one feel, eventually, Everything Fades Away.

Zane’s erotic writing has captivated a legion of fans. Her previous short story collection, The Sex Chronicles: Shattering the Myth, not only became a bestseller but also delivered fully on its promise—exploding the myth that men are more sexual in nature than women and that African American women are particularly inhibited. Now, this second volume of Sex Chronicles, Gettin’ Buck Wild, is Zane’s hottest collection yet. Smart, witty, and extremely sexy, with all-new characters and settings, these stories are tailored to women—but perfect for lovers to share.
Scenarios run the gamut from committed, monogamous couples looking to experiment to wild, single sisters who form a very unconventional sorority. You’ll meet a highly paid, multitasking career woman who gets her groove back in “When Opposites Attract.” You’ll take a ride with an adventurous couple that tries something new in “The Subway—A Quickie.” You’ll discover a new way of celebrating Christmas in “The Santa Claus.” Spicing up real-life scenarios with over-the-top sexual fantasy, Zane gives readers the best time they’ve ever had between the pages of a book.

Hope and Faith: two things that everyone needs to survive–but the words take on a different meaning in the form of a set of twins who attend Crockett University in Washington, D.C.
Soror Ride ’em High and Soror Lick ’em Low, originally hail from Atlanta and, like most twins, they share a connection. In fact, their physical bond is so strong
that one can often feel a pounding while the other is engaged in sexual activity. But everything is not perfect when it comes to being a twin. Sometimes animosity
and jealousy can creep in; especially when Hope and Faith find themselves both attracted to the same man on campus. Is blood really thicker than water? Or, in
this case, thicker than basic carnal desires?
In this long-anticipated second volume in the APF series, a follow-up to The Sisters of APF: The Indoctrination of Soror Ride Dick, New York Times bestselling
author Zane once again proves why she is the Queen of Erotic Fiction. Over the years many have tried to emulate her but Zane’s imagination is not to be
replicated any time in the near future. The freak nights of APF are some of the most artistic, exhilarating, erotic experiences that have ever graced the pages of a
book; evidenced by the thousands of emails Zane has received over the years from women yearning to join the sorority. The sexual revolution continues within
the pages of Head Bangers: An APF Sexcapade.

Zane spoils her fans in this scintillating New York Times bestseller about about two women, four men, two love triangles and the drama that unfolds.
“Hot Box” is a baseball drill that can be played with three or more players and two to four bases. The players take turns being fielders and runners, ultimately trying to tag the rest of the players out. In The Hot Box, best friends Milena and Lydia are playing the game with Jacour, Yosef, Glenn, and Phil. The only problem: the men do not realize that they are merely players in their game.
Milena lives a sheltered and dismal existence, and she hasn’t allowed a man to touch her body in eight years–until now. Lydia dreams of getting away from small-town America, but until she can make that happen, she is prepared to do whatever it takes to continue to have her bills paid on time. Good sex always does the trick.

From the New York Times bestselling Queen of Erotica comes a novel about a testy love affair between a woman who’s had enough and a man who’s had it all.
Jemistry Daniels, the beautiful, intelligent, six-figures-a-year high school principal, suffered through one bad relationship after another. No wonder she adopted the “friends with benefits” mentality when it came to men. For Jemistry, there was to be no “catching feelings.” Her biggest mistake would be to open her heart again.
When Dr. Tevin Harris meets Jemistry at a poetry reading in a cafe, he knows from her confessional writing that her past with men has been difficult. The prominent vascular surgeon, who has been only casually dating for years, is attracted to the embittered Jemistry nonetheless. With a little persistence, Tevin convinces Jemistry to go out with him. She has baggage, but so does he. What about his divorce?
Despite their respective pasts, Jemistry and Tevin’s chemistry is right and the relationship takes off, but not without bumps in the road. When Jemistry encounters her new beau in a compromising position with her bisexual best friend, what follows is an intense, sensuous, and unforgettable drama with surprises around every turn.

By turns tender and outrageous, The Sex Chronicles is a pleasure from beginning to end.
