Ivy's Twisted Vine Latrivia S. Nelson

Memphis, TN is buzzing over a sex scandal that could upset one of the city's oldest black political families, and it is all centered around one woman - Ivy Winters. Ivy Winters is a college queen on the rise to becoming the next big thing to hit the Memphis marketing industry. All she has to do is finish her last year of college with top honors and plan the biggest wedding event of the year, before she's off to being Mrs. Grey Henderson. Her five-year plan is working out smoothly until her fianc¿ dumps her. In utter despair, she falls into the arms of another man and ends up pregnant by either the love of her life or the man of her dreams. Grey Henderson knows what he wants and gets it. Labeled the most eligible bachelor in Memphis, secured by riches and power, and son to the most hated and loved Mayor the city has ever seen, his only goal is to become the next Congressman of District 17. But like many men, Grey is a slave to sex. Marriage to Ivy would win the seat, but his desire to continue as a single man creates waves when he breaks off their engagement only to discover he wants her back. Italian lover, Lt. Nicola Agosto is one of Memphis' top cops. Living life on the edge and sleeping around is a past time he enjoys when he's not serving as the Mayor's henchman. Operation Paycheck is a opportunity that will put his specialized unit in the forefront of a huge movement. However, all his plans come to a halt when he possibly gets Ivy pregnant. Now, not only does he have to face the Henderson family, but he also has to face his love for Ivy.
