"A piece of me for a piece of you."

When Anthony "Ant" Poole, a young auto mechanic with a creative approach to the mating game, tries out his latest line on Sharron Francis, he has no idea of the impact it will have. For Sharron, an ordinary girl in search of companionship and happiness, Ant's words are filled with mystery and allure. Would she really be getting an actual piece of him, or just a piece, period? What did a piece of yourself mean, anyway? Was it solely physical, or could it mean something spiritual, emotional? The more Sharron contemplates Ants line, the more it confounds her. The only way for her to discover its meaning is to discover Ant for herself. And when she does, her world is turned upside down.

With his highly acclaimed novels Flyy Girl, A Do Right Man, and Single Mom, Omar Tyree delved into such current controversial issues as absentee fathers, single parenthood, the search for good black men, and the experiences of urban life. Now, at a time when men and women are struggling more than ever with the terms of commitment, Tyree returns with this seductive, insightful look at the age-old question: How do people fall in love -- and stay in love? A smooth, sultry love story with a contemporary edge, Sweet St. Louis inspires and delights with its portrayal of romance and passion at the end of the twentieth century -- as real and irresistible now as they've been since the beginning of time.
