Ashley & Jaquavis Coleman  

Literary duo juggle parenthood, marriage; authors of a New York Times best seller

Ashley and JaQuavis Coleman, co-authors of more than 20 best-selling novels before even reaching the age of 25, are the hottest young African American voices in literature today.

Starting at the age of 17 in high school in Flint, MI., Ashley and JaQuavis developed their first book when they met and discovered their mutual love for storytelling. Reading each others material, they decided to combine their works together and the rest is history. During their freshman year in college their first novel "Dirty Money" (2005), caught the attention of New York Times and Essence bestselling author and publisher Carl Weber. Ashley & JaQuavis were both signed to publishing deals before the end of that school year.

A jumpstart to an amazing book writing career, Ashley and JaQuavis developed a magnificent library with bestsellers such as, "The Trophy Wife" (2008), "Diary of a Street Diva" (2009), "Supreme Clientele" (2009) and "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang" (2009), to name a few. But it was "The Cartel" that readers around the country took notice of their true talents. The New York Times best-selling Cartel trilogy is the story of the fight to take down a ruthless Miami family drug Cartel.

The Coleman duo newest novel, Murderville: First of a Trilogy has been labeled as the couples best work. The expertly woven tale of love, crime and money takes the reader around the world from the streets of war-torn Sierra Leone to the Mexican drug trade and to Hollywoods little known multi-million dollar A-List sex trade.

With their career rising Ashley and JaQuavis is also living the married life along with their 1 year old son. They both feel that life in this business is only acceptable when you have the drive to continue.
