Author Faye Thompson

Faye Thompson’s love affair with books began early on. By age ten she was pounding out her first book on the keys of her mother’s old manual typewriter. A product of the New York City Public School System and a summa cum laude York College graduate, today she is the author of four drama-drenched gems–In Her Mother’s Shadow, Cheesecake and Teardrops, Red-Hot Pepper, and Slippin’ Sippin’ Saints…

Her second novel, Cheesecake and Teardrops (2009), met with rave reviews, landing her a coveted spot in Black Expressions Magazine. Living in New York, three best girlfriends struggle to resist a seductive boss, commitment-phobic boyfriends, and a body by Haagen-Dazs®. The trio embarks upon a spiritual odyssey of redemption, forgiveness, self-acceptance, and tolerance in their quest to be made whole. Cheesecake and Teardrops quickly became a book club favorite.
