CHASIN’ IT by Tony Lindsay

November 14, 2008 by Daniel · Leave a Comment 


The life and loves of Terri Parrish are filled with obsession, glamour, hot sex and very dangerous men. Once a Las Vegas headliner, she now lives on the streets of Chicago, an ex-convict and junkie looking for any way to make a few dollars and score another hit. The trouble is, Terri still desires the lights of a Las Vegas stage and the adoration of fans. When she meets with Mo-Red, and ex-lover and a chief in one of Chicago’s largest street gangs, she sees an opportunity to regain some of her former glamorous life. After all, a fool can see an opportunity, but a survivor figures out how to take it. Terri considers herself a survivor at the very least. She knows that stealing from royalty means death, but she has to take this chance of a lifetime. With Mo-Red’s money and his drugs, only one question remains – will she get out of Chicago alive?

Chasin’ It is an urban story twisted with jealousy, addiction, denial, obsession and deception. From Las Vegas’s Ceasars stage to life on Chicago’s mean streets, the lessons are hard and many for Terri in this rite of passage tale like no other. Chasin’ It will keep you spellbound from the first pages and fascinate you with a story like nothing you’ve ever read before. It is truly the wildest street story of them all.

SINS OF THE FATHER by Felicia Madlock

November 11, 2008 by Daniel · Leave a Comment 


Devoted, Caring, and Dedicated.
Those are the words that Sammie Jr. used to describe his father, Samuel “Street” Jamieson. His untimely death forces Sammie to move from the tranquility of suburban living to the noise and chaos of urban dwelling in the hard streets of Chicago. Sammie lost everything that he loved: parents, friends, and his way of living. How would he survive? And could he survive?

Player, Liar, and Deceiver.
Those are the words that Terrance and Malik would use to describe Samuel “Street” Jamieson. They never considered him their father. They did not grieve his untimely death; they mourned his departure years ago, when he walked out of their lives unannounced, leaving their mother heartbroken. Nadine sees the same poisonous charm in her sons as she saw in Street. a father’s absence is always present in the lives of his sons. Unsuppressed anger, hatred, and bitterness fester in Terrance and Malik. These emotions surface to a crescendo when they are faced with circumstances that threaten to shatter their world. Can they learn to forgive?

The path of survival will intersect the path of hate. Can they build a road of understanding?
