Move over, 50 Shades! There’s a new romance in town. Superstar Wendy Williams brings on the heat in her first ever, no-holds-barred, down and dirty romance novel. In Hold Me in Contempt, Kimberly Kind is a successful, beautiful, smart lawyer finally finding direction in her life and getting out of the streets. But a terrible accident threatens to throw her carefully laid plans off course. Enter King – a perfect mix of Justin Timberlake and David Beckham that oozes sex and swagger. Their chemistry is off the charts, but Kim’s hiding a huge secret…one that could threaten everything.
