Ride back with the class of 1997 and see the crazy things we do in the name of love...and hate. CHANTAL's a Philly songbird longing for the love she never got at home. The neighborhood slut, she gets caught sleeping with a married teacher, and is sent to California to get some tough love from her brother. Former model SHALONDA was born to have the best. Her baby boo CHRIS---a multi-talented, tatted-up, NFL superstar-to-be---is her key to the good life. Their four-year relationship has been rocky, but he does everything she wants just to keep her smiling. Once in L.A., hooking up is the last thing on Chantal's mind, but the minute she steps on campus, girls violently threaten her, thinking she wants every chick's boyfriend. After one threat too many, Chantal gives them all something to be mad about! Rumors about Chantal and Chris fly overnight, but Shalonda's not about to lose her ticket to fortune. She uses every trick her mama taught her to keep her man, even if that means getting another man on the side. But Chantal isn't looking for love. She just finds the friendship and family she's always wanted in Chris. The more her own family shuts her out, the more he lets her in. And as lies and jealousy threaten to destroy his future with Shalonda, Chris turns to the very woman he should be running away from. They all fight it, but what Chris and Chantal share is as real as the tattoos on their backs, and it runs deeper than ink. But Shalonda vows, there's no way she's going to be the only one left in tears. PART TWO...COMING SOON!

As the daughter of an underground hip hop legend who died right before he hit big, Bri’s got massive shoes to fill. But it’s hard to get your come up when you’re labeled a hoodlum at school, and your fridge at home is empty after your mom loses her job. So Bri pours her anger and frustration into her first song, which goes viral . . . for all the wrong reasons. Bri soon finds herself at the center of a controversy, portrayed by the media as more menace than MC. But with an eviction notice staring her family down, Bri doesn’t just want to make it—she has to. Even if it means becoming the very thing the public has made her out to be. Insightful, unflinching, and full of heart, On the Come Up is an ode to hip hop from one of the most influential literary voices of a generation. It is the story of fighting for your dreams, even as the odds are stacked against you; and about how, especially for young black people, freedom of speech isn’t always free.

Download or read book Blood Trails written by R.M. Yeager and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2019-05-14 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As worldwide law enforcement's facial recognition software improved by leaps and bounds, criminal cartels around the globe scrambled to find a solution to defeat the new and improved identity system. One cartel, in particular, using an unlimited pool of resources, designed a foolproof way to give the underworld a new face. Or so they thought. Until a pair of twins and a small California high desert police department pulled the thread that would unravel their well-oiled machine. A gruesome murder would lead to a hidden surgical suite where missing migrants were used as tissue donors for clandestine facial reconstruction surgery. A manhunt through the sage and cactus of the high desert would lead three detectives to a final showdown with a pair of ex-military butchers hired by the cartel. At least they thought the case was closed. However, the greed from within the organization would ultimately ignite a new flashpoint with the cartel's head man sending in a team of assassins and a beautiful woman hacker to erase both people and secret files. Files kept of the cartel's surgical clients as they were before and after facial reconstruction. It then became a race against time. If the encryption on each file were broken and the files sent to Interpol, then the cartel itself would become a worldwide target to every criminal with a new face.
