Sexy Singles: Sonya Bright

Sonya Bright is something of a "sunshine hustler" because she's all about a tan.

Not only does she own Tantini Tanning Bars, in Newark, Del., and Glassboro, N.J., but she also has a line of tanning products.

Raised in the mountains of North Carolina, she loves fishing, despises cheapskates and has the vocabulary of a highly educated sailor.

She loves Mexican food washed down with tequila.

Nominated by Daily News photographer Reuben "Big Rube" Harley, she's also a hard worker who sums up her secret to success this way: "I consider myself to be an individual who gets what I want out of life because I put in the time and dedication to achieving my goals."
