Book Description
Langston, also known as Tookie Man, is a cocky money launderer that's used to having his way. Newly single, he is ready to mingle with the ladies. Used to getting his way, he is looking for a bad chick to put on his arm. He meets two ladies, Yaniyzah and Brooke that catches his attention immediately. When Yaniyzah rejects him, he doesn't take it personal until he sees her for the third time. He tries wooing her by throwing his cash around. When she's unimpressed by his handsomeness and money, he turns on his charm. Langston tries harder to break through her wall and capture her heart. Especially once the preciousness of her five-month-old daughter Imani awakens a tenderness inside of him that no real thug would ever fess up to owning. Not really the player type, Langston knows he has to make a choice between the two. The closer he gets to Yaniyzah, the more distance grows between him and Brooke. Brooke asks too many questions, and it makes him very uncomfortable. He doesn't let people in his business, certainly not his women. Yaniyzah doesn't ask many questions, but she isn't letting her guard down either. He does everything he can to gain her trust, while leaving Brooke to unanswered calls. Yaniyzah may be winning Langston's heart with no effort, but Brooke isn't the type of chick to play runner-up. Everything seemed to be going great for Langston, until the drought hits Dallas. He begins to supply one of his boys with coke. Once his name starts to circulate around the drug game, another dealer wants in. He considers supplying him until he learns that the FED's are in town. Being that drugs weren't his main source of income, he has no problem with leaving it alone. But that won't be before he is made aware that his face is added to FED's the list of potential dealers. After a brief talk with Brooke, he knows he has no choice but to leave town. Thinking about himself at the time, he didn't consider who he would be leaving behind. He is quickly reminded when Yaniyzah comes and drop a bomb on him. Which woman will be there for him when he needs it the most? Will he be able to get away before he gets caught up? These questions and more will be answered in the first installment of this explosive series.

Publisher: Urban Soul

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
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.

The Road Movie Book
Author: Steven Cohan
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 113482436X
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 396
Book Description
The Road Movie Book is the first comprehensive study of an enduring but ever-changing Hollywood genre, its place in American culture, and its legacy to world cinema. The road and the cinema both flourished in the twentieth century, as technological advances brought motion pictures to a mass audience and the mass produced automobile opened up the road to the ordinary American. When Jean Baudrillard equated modern American culture with 'space, speed, cinema, technology' he could just as easily have added that the road movie is its supreme emblem. The contributors explore how the road movie has confronted and represented issues of nationhood, sexuality, gender, class and race. They map the generic terrain of the road movie, trace its evolution on American television as well as on the big screen from the 1930s through the 1980s, and, finally, consider road movies that go off the road, departing from the US landscape or travelling on the margins of contemporary American culture. Movies discussed include: * Road classics such as It Happened One Night, The Grapes of Wrath, The Wizard of Oz and the Bob Hope-Bing Crosby Road to films * 1960's reworkings of the road movie in Easy Rider and Bonnie and Clyde * Russ Meyer's road movies: from Motorpsycho! to Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill! * Contemporary hits such as Paris Texas, Rain Man, Natural Born Killers and Thelma and Louise * The road movie, Australian style, from Mad Max to the Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert.
