About The Book
A fun, spicy romcom with the poignancy of Abby Jimenez and a modern twist on “surprise baby” for fans of Jasmine Guillory.
Megastar Whitney “Sahara” Richardson has everything planned - including when she’ll have kids. But a medical mix-up makes her the biological mother of a child she didn’t carry and whose father she’s never met.
World-famous Whitney “Sahara” Richardson is at the top of her game. With four Grammys, an Oscar nod, and a half-billion-dollar clothing line, her career is skyrocketing. Even her headline-grabbing dating life is looking up. And if everything goes as planned, marriage and children are just a few years away. However, a mix-up at the fertility clinic where her eggs are stored puts the cart before the horse, and Sahara suddenly has a daughter... whose biological father is reluctant to share.

‘Token has it all: laughs, heat, a second-chance romance and – most importantly – so much to say on EDI and racism, all wrapped up in beautiful writing. Kendall’s way with words and how she weaves her way through the story is utterly enthralling and will have you hooked.’
My Weekly
'Discerning and insightful, Token delivers a deliciously daring and sexy romance with confidence.'
