Book excerpt: What extreme lengths would you be willing to go through for the sake of a true love? What if you were a broken, and weighed down woman, feeling as if you were drowning within an abyss of emotional pain and darkness? Jelissa never thought that she'd find that pure unconditional love that she'd always prayed for within the arms of an incarcerated man just as broken as herself. But once the two crossed paths in the most controversial, and forbidden way, their journey becomes one that some can never understand. In the story; Love Worth The Wait: My Journey As A Prison Wife, Jelissa shares her journey as the wife of an incarcerated man in whom she was forbidden to fall in love with. Against all odds, and many near death experiences, it was their true love that gave them the tenacity to push forward to the unforeseeable end. “You don’t truly understand the definition of strong until you’ve had to fight to hold your marriage together through visits, limited phone calls, and letters. I am often judged by my decision to stand beside a man who is behind bars. Every night I look over at the empty space in the bed, I just know without a shadow of a doubt that my king is coming home. Patience is definitely a virtue, but I continue to hold him down. Every day is unpredictable, but he, our love is worth the wait!” -Jelissa

This book was released on 2018-10-09 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frank D’Angelo is an intrepid entrepreneur, singer, restaurateur, and the James Bond of the Canadian beverage world. At least one of his products can be found in almost every convenience store in Canada under the brands D’Angelo or Arizona, and he has raised thousands of dollars for charities through his music. Born to Sicilian parents in Toronto, Frank nurtured his keen business sense as a boy by buying and consolidating paper routes, and then contracting them out. He flipped his first house at age 20. Six years later, he mortgaged his house to buy $150,000 worth of apple juice, which he used to start a multi-million dollar business empire from his truck. Frank appears in lots of his TV commercials, in various incarnations, and his inimitable “Eye-talian” style is arguably as famous as his drinks. You need only mention the catchphrase, “I Cheetah all the time,” and the infamous Ben Johnson Cheetah energy drink commercial springs to mind. Frank D’Angelo doesn’t just push the envelope—he pushes the entire post office; and in so doing, revolutionizes the very idea of merchandising. With a raw wit and seasoned debonair, Frank now hosts his own Friday night variety talk show, the Being Frank Show, with A-list guests and an assortment of comedy skits and live music. Despite his huge successes and achievements, Frank D’Angelo is probably best known for just...Being Frank!

Download or read book Hustler s Dreams Federal Nightmares written by Amir Sanchez and published by Urban Soul. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The game once had three major rules that were never to be broken or compromised, regardless of how serious things got in one's life. Death before dishonor was more than just a code; it was the law of the streets, written in the blood of the OGs who killed and died upholding it. Back then, there were many rewards for those who followed the codes. On the other hand, the penalty was death for anyone who violated the laws, and anybody close to him. At the very least, that person would be blackballed from the hood and any illegal street ventures. Clearly the game as we once knew it has been changed by today's hustlers, gangsters, and crooks. Most of them have strayed far from the script. The majority of them would rather save their asses than save face. They would sooner live with shame and disgrace than die with honor and respect. With the current status of the game and the sheisty individuals who are playing it, is there anyone who will honor the past and acknowledge the rules of the game for what they used to be? A newcomer to the urban lit scene, Amir Sanchez delivers a realistic, gripping story of life on the streets, where hustlers still rule, but honor and loyalty have taken on new meaning.
