This author is not only talented, but writes books that make you smile as well as keeps you on edge to find out how things are going to turn out. Without further ado, please allow me to introduce you all to African Contemporary Romance Fiction Author Temba Magorimbo.
Hi there Temba, let’s start by GETTING TO KNOW YOU.
WHAT GENRE do you write AND WHY?
I write African contemporary romance fiction. That is my forte. Love makes the world go round. It makes the sense work very well. For families to exist it is because of love. Without it we as the human race are doomed. That is why I like to write about love and its problems/aftermath.
Temba, can you please share the TITLES OF YOUR BOOKS?
a) BOOMERANG
b) BUTTERSCOTCH [MEET ME IN ALBERTA]
c) CHILD OF PROMISE
d) FOR ALL HAVE SINNED
e) IF WOMEN CAN WEEP
f) LAKE OF MY HEART
g) LAMB TO THE SLAUGHTER
h) LET CLOSE ON ME
i) OFF THE EAGLE’S CLAWS
j) PATA-PATA [SOFT FOOTSTEPS]
k) SPLASH IN THE LOCH
l) THEY BREED MERINO SHEEP
m) TIGERS HUNT AT NIGHT
n) WHIPLASH [LOVE TRIANGLE]
Do you have a PENNAME?
I do not use a penname.
Let’s switch gears a bit and talk ABOUT THE BOOKS.
Specifically, in BUTTERSCOTCH [MEET ME IN ALBERTA] there is a love triangle. Two women who are very much in love with one man, Raphael, definitely want to either keep or win his affection. Can you PLEASE TELL US MORE ABOUT THE WOMEN IN RAPHAEL’S LIFE?
In Butterscotch [meet me in Alberta] Dorothy is a persevering character who is cool, calm and well groomed while Virginia is an explosive force that can break through the bottle at anytime. Dorothy is slow to react but firm while Virginia is there to smash and crack Raphael’s marriage. Virginia is a silent schemer while Dorothy awaits chance to protect her heart from hurting.
What is the NAME OF YOUR UPCOMING RELEASE?
The latest book in abeyance yet to come to terms with being live is called HONEYSCRISP which is an African contemporary romance book about people in love not yet married. They have to make hard choices to swim with the sharks or drown with the dolphins. Life is not a bed of roses. Tears have to be shed. A few drops of sweat and blood on the romance altar are needed. The heart should always be on sacrifice if you love romance. Anyway you go whatever calling, love rules the roost.

TEMBA MAGORIMBO left us with a short blurb about his novel BUTTERSCOTCH [MEET ME IN ALBERTA].
BUTTERSCOTCH [MEET ME IN ALBERTA]
The heat is on from the moment Raphael concludes his apprenticeship. He starts working part time as a lecturer while searching around for a permanent job of his calibre. He meets Virginia, a state registered general nurse in training. Together they become an inseparable item. He finds contract work that pays well and is within his trade 280-kilometres away from his love. In her part, Virginia concludes her training and is posted further away from her dream boy. As he thinks he is settling down Virginia slips through his fingers like an eel in muddy water. She marries another person. Smitten, he turns to his work and his experience but his heart cries out for love. Four times he meets the same woman in a bus and in another location. Dorothy is not his type but she does have charm, elegance, charisma and things work well between him and her. She is not desperate to end her late spinsterhood but they do work well. He married her. He thinks he has settled won years later when he meets Virginia again. He is tired of one contract after another without getting any permanent work until he gets a call to Alberta, Canada. Both women want to be with him, Dorothy as his wife and Virginia as his girlfriend but of whom will he share his Alberta abode? Will a double divorce and remarriage work with Raphael and Virginia or will the African cultural establishment work its pressure and charm on him. Only one woman can win the race to meet Raphael in Alberta. |
