Los Angeles-Author Ci Ci Foster is quickly gaining the reputation for being the hottest up and coming urban lit queen on the block. Her timely, realistic account of Black women’s struggles in life, love and relationships in her debut novel Sunny Rain, (4 Hearts Publications, $14.00, April 2010), has been garnering massive praise and attracting loyal fans in Hollywood and beyond.

With a thought provoking storyline that cleverly describes the true life experiences of countless women of color across globe, Sunny Rain provides a voice for every woman who has experienced abuse, toxic relationships, or struggled with self love. According to Foster, “The purpose of Sunny Rain is to expose readers to the sometimes harsh realities that affect all women; especially today’s African American women. Infidelity, abuse, fear, shame… I bring all of these issues to the forefront hoping to empower my readers, and encourage them to make better life choices.”

Much like Tyler Perry’s latest film “For Colored Girls Only”, Sunny Rain reflects the inner struggles and secret lives of black women dealing with the complexities and tragedies of life. Foster’s debut explores the lives of Natalie, Leslie and Monica; three African American beauties who seem to have it all, but hide their pain and experiences of abuse, low self worth and family dysfunction from the world until their pasts catch up with them and force them to face their inner demons. Laced with high drama, sensuality, and vivid characters, Sunny Rain is an unforgettable, intense page turner that has made Foster the newest rising star in adult contemporary fiction.

Sunny Rain is available at BarnesandNoble.com, 4HeartsPublications.com, Amazon.com, and other popular bookstores. For more information about Ci Ci Foster or Sunny Rain, visit www.CiCiFoster.com.
