Book Description
There is more to being a dope boy, a hood entrepreneur, than slanging dope. The art of dealing the best quality drugs to the neediest crack head took patience, precision and street smarts qualities Kason "Kaotic" Lafleur had down pack. Inheriting the family business from his uncle, Kaotic becomes a self-made millionaire by producing the purest coke and skillfully smuggling them into the US without lifting a finger. With a take charge attitude and boss mentality, Kaotic, the leader of the Dade County Goonz (DCG), only concern is money. To him, if it didn't make money it didn't made sense. Not even the slew of women he has encountered during the many rendezvous has the ability to shift his attention. Getting him to care and love was practically unachievable and non-existent until he met her... Serenity has it all; beauty, brains and a bank account with more zeros than she knew what to do with. From the outside looking in, Serenity has it together. Her life is goals to many except no one knows the demons she faces. The fear of love forces her to use men for sex before tossing them aside. Her wild behavior mirrors the pain she's truly going through, the pain no one can understand, pain that is uncontrollable until she met him...Love can be so beautiful yet painful in the same sense. Kaotic struggles with the adjustment his heart forces him to make as he allows a broken woman into his life, one who is so harmless, but can potentially cause him and his organization so much damage. Serenity struggles to keep secrets hidden, secrets that could potentially cost her- her life.

Back to Blood

ISBN: 0316214582
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 407
Book Description
A big, panoramic story of the new America, as told by our master chronicler of the way we live now. As a police launch speeds across Miami's Biscayne Bay -- with officer Nestor Camacho on board -- Tom Wolfe is off and running. Into the feverous landscape of the city, he introduces the Cuban mayor, the black police chief, a wanna-go-muckraking young journalist and his Yale-marinated editor; an Anglo sex-addiction psychiatrist and his Latina nurse by day, loin lock by night-until lately, the love of Nestor's life; a refined, and oh-so-light-skinned young woman from Haiti and her Creole-spouting, black-gang-banger-stylin' little brother; a billionaire porn addict, crack dealers in the 'hoods, "de-skilled" conceptual artists at the Miami Art Basel Fair, "spectators" at the annual Biscayne Bay regatta looking only for that night's orgy, yenta-heavy ex-New Yorkers at an "Active Adult" condo, and a nest of shady Russians. Based on the same sort of detailed, on-scene, high-energy reporting that powered Tom Wolfe's previous bestselling novels, Back to Blood is another brilliant, spot-on, scrupulous, and often hilarious reckoning with our times.

No Greater Love

Book Description
Look at Helen Baylor today and you don't see the anguish of childhood molestation, the isolation resulting from teen-age pregnancy, the desperation of being strung out on drugs, the vulnerability of being homeless, the numbing fear of having witnessed a murder or the pain of being forced to sell her body. You're too caught up in the purity of her singing, the anointing on her voice. You hear the joy of a changed life. As a gospel singer, Helen has few peers. There are many who are better known than she but few who can sing from such depth of conviction -- and with such passion. Her story is raw and compromised. She tells of becoming a teen-age singing sensation, of joining the cast of Hair, of hooking up with the Ike and Tina Turner Review, the Captain & Tennille, a Chaka Khan and Rufus. Then she tells of her friendship with cocaine and her promiscuity. She tells of bright highs and dark lows. She tells of the underside of life and of her glorious deliverance through Jesus Christ. For Helen Baylor, there truly is no greater love.
