Meagan has a history filled with lies, murder, and constant disrespect, now a murderous letter signed Disrespectfully Yours could crumble her world to pieces… Do you remember your first love? Meagan will never forget hers because William played an important role in her life, one that should have prevented them from coming together. There were so many reasons for them not to be together, like their twenty-one-year age difference. But tragedy took the lives of those who stood in their way, and Meagan was happy it did—at first. The people who taught her the deadly game opened Pandora’s box. They were the ones who sent her into William’s arms, but his constant cheating and physical abuse sent her into the arms of many others. Now that she’s unhappily married, Meagan searches for love through a cougar’s eyes, and she thinks she may have found it in Devin, a man young enough to be her own child. But her husband’s sneaky moves get in the way. It takes her limousine driver, Angelo, to open her eyes to the immediate danger she is in. He accidentally stumbles across a past that neither of them knew about or is ready to acknowledge, and it seems all parties may have a deadly connection.

All hail to the West Coast, where its natural resources of breathtaking beaches, smokable trees, and beautiful women are unlimited. From the freezing top of Mt. Denali in Alaska to the fly-ass architectural marvel of California’s Golden Gate Bridge, the region is one of the most desirable places to visit on Earth. But for a problematic girl like Temper Chey, it’s a prison, and she’s dying to be freed. Perhaps Temper’s longing to escape is a result of being raised on a road less traveled in an area of South Central Los Angeles, where tourism is obsolete and gang banging and dope slanging reign supreme. Or maybe it’s because of the widespread enigma that “the only way out the hood is over a thirty-foot wall.” If this hood proverb is true, then being born half black and half Asian should’ve given her a ten-foot ladder as a head start. Will her brief escapade with one of the most infamous Crip kingpins force her to twist, toss, and burn her exit plans? Will she give up on the promise she made to her uncle to “bust her ass” to get those missing twenty feet? Or will the chaos be the defibrillator that revives her and provides an escalator ride to freedom?

Type "Kingpins of Memphis" in any search engine and you'll see images of Craig Petties and his alleged crew, and that's how Ethan Wade Carruthers prayed it remained. Though he had never met the youthful-faced man covered in diamonds, he knew the information wasn't completely accurate, because he should have discovered his own face and crew. Not that he expected to pull up any results under the name Ethan Wade Carruthers besides an old missing person's report on a 16-year-old boy from the South Side of Chicago. Why would he, when Ethan didn't have a life, nor a past, worth reading about? His intellect had him rejected from the deadly Chicago gang life before he could decide if he wanted to be accepted or not, and with both parents in love with their addiction to freebasing cocaine, he found it easier to pack up and leave. It took many years and miles to impregnate his mind with thoughts of survival. With self-preservation growing inside of him, he birthed the deadliest kingpin to walk the width of the United States. He named him Joe and released him onto the streets of Memphis. With everyone's eyes stuck on what they could see, Joe made moves that could only be traced back to a ghost whose origin, location, and moves were no more than an urban legend. With his name gracing the list of the most notorious kingins of all times, will Ethan's rebirth lead him to a fate in a jail cell or a casket, as it had many before him? Or will Joe be the mastermind to construct an exit plan so well thought out that it would give him a way out as quietly as he arrived? Trust, he's not your "average Joe."-- Back cover

In the third installment of the Kismet series about obsessive love gone very wrong, Savannah and Dre's relationship turns a corner when secrets are exposed... Savannah was everything Dre wanted in a woman: beautiful, educated, independent, and classy. On top of that, she was the best lover Dre had ever had. It had to be kismet that brought these two together, because karma would have never allowed it. Savannah had made too many negative deposits into karma's bank without any withdrawals to end up with a good man like Dre. Perhaps, karma and kismet were in cahoots. There was a lot about Savannah that Dre didn't know initially, like her non-nurturing, revenge-seeking, conniving, and unfaithful ways. Nor did Dre know that he had fallen in love with karma's new prey on the eve of her receiving a taste of everything she had dished out. However, there was also a lot about Dre that Savannah didn't know, nor did she take the time to find out. Two facets, in particular, were his low tolerance for infidelity and zero tolerance for lies! After pushing Dre over the edge multiple times with both, what will she do when he volunteers to jump off?
