Here's an excerpt from my new novel, FAST LANE! Visit www.shakeerafrazer.com for more information!
_____________________________________________________________


Trish had seen him at three other parties over the past few months. He was always with an entourage of people and surrounded by two or three body guards. She could never get to him. But last night he was alone and she was going to get him! He was at the bar in V.I.P and when Trish spotted him she left Nina, Paulette, and Crystal in an instant.

Trish walked over to V.I.P. and began to work her magic. She could feel all eyes on her as she glided across the room and she loved it. Trish was not your typical beauty but she had a natural sex appeal that almost everybody, guy or girl was drawn to. She was about 5’7” with chocolate brown skin, bright brown almond shaped eyes and a curvy shape. Trish adjusted her white A.B.S strapless mini dress and glanced down at her perfectly French manicured toes peeking through her silver rhinestone encrusted Jimmy Choo stilettos. She grabbed her Louis Vuitton handbag and took out her perfect shade of MAC lip gloss, Oh Baby, and put on a coat as she ran her fingers through her brown long curls. Pleased with herself she strutted through the crowd and thought of what she would say to her mystery man.

When she reached V.I.P a heavily built burly dark-skinned man that resembled the late Biggie Smalls guarded the roped area.

“May I help you?” he asked in a deep voice.

“Yes you can by letting me in” Trish said as she batted her long naturally curled eyelashes. Trish usually didn’t have to say anything to get her way.

“Who are you with?”

“Excuse me?” Trish asked with an attitude.

What the fuck is his problem? He must be gay.

“I said who are you here with, you don’t have on a band”

“Him” Trish said as she pointed to a random man sitting on the couch in the V.I.P section.

The man took one look at Trish and smiled and nodded his head.

“Aight” The guard said as he opened the rope and let her pass.

Trish walked up the steps and looked around for her man.

She spotted him and was about to make her way over when someone tapped her shoulder and said

“Where you going?” The man asked

“Excuse me?” Trish turned around and asked with an attitude. Then she realized that it was the guy she pointed to on the other side of the ropes.

Trish sized him up quickly; he was okay, but definitely not her type. He was light skin, with light brown eyes, curly hair and a little on the chunky side. He was rocking tan slacks and Bill Cosby sweater, definitely not her style, he looked broke, but what the hell, she could have a drink with him.

“Come over to my table and get yourself a drink” He said

“Okay”

When Trish sat down there was a bottle of Rose sitting on ice, Dom Perignon at that.

Maybe he’s not broke. Trish thought, because she new that a bottle of Rose was at least $350 and at a club it was going to be double, she did her homework.

Maybe I’ll give him a little of my time.

He poured Trish a glass and handed it to her.

“So what’s up gorgeous? What’s your name?”

“Trish”

“I’m Walter, nice to met you”

“Nice to meet you too”

Trish really didn’t give a damn about meeting him. Just make this shit fast.

Walter began to talk about his self. His life, his job and Trish was bored to death.

She began to ignore him as she looked around to make sure who she really came to see didn’t leave.

“Are you looking for somebody?” Walter asked annoyed.

Trish ignored him. She had completely tuned him out by this time; she didn’t even know he was asking her a question.

“Hello, Trish are you looking for somebody” Walter raised his voice over the music.

“Actually I am, thanks for the drink” Trish said as she got up and walked away.

Trish walked right over to the other side of the room where she saw him. He was sitting on a couch in the corner sipping on a drink. He had on some dark True Religion jeans, black Gucci Sneakers, a black fitted T- shirt and a black blazer.

Trish walked over and stood in front of him with her legs slightly open.

“Hi I’m Trish, nice to meet you” She said confidently

“I’m Jay, have we met before?” He asked as he gently took her hand

“No, I’m sure you would have remembered me.” Trish said as she licked her lips and ran her fingers through her long brown flowing curls.

“So you here by yourself beautiful?” Jay asked

Looking at him he was not typically her type but she was attracted to him anyway. He was sexy. He just had a swagger about him. He was very laid back and confident and she loved that.

“No I’m with my girls, but you looked so lonely I decided to come keep you company”

“I’m chilling. I just got off work and wanted to stop and get a drink before I went home.” Jay said

“What kind of work do you do?” Trish asked.

“I’m a producer and I’ve been in the studio all night.”

“So are you going home alone?” Trish asked getting right to the point.

“Why you want to join me?”

“I was waiting for you to ask”

Jay grinned and finished the last sip of his drink and called the bartender over so he could close out his tab.

“You want something before we go?” He asked Trish

“No I’m good”

“You ready? Jay stood up and asked.

“Yeah, let me just tell my girls I’m leaving. I’ll be back in a minute”

Trish turned around and walked very slowly. She knew Jay was staring at her ass. She walked over to Nina, Paulette, and Crystal and she said “I’m leaving with Jay. I’ll call you guys in the morning.”

Who the hell is Jay? Nina asked.
