May 28, 2008 by Daniel · 7 Comments
Isis Tatum knows firsthand the way love can mess up a person. After all, she saw her mother drive a truck through the home of her father’s mistress before killing her dad. And ever since Isis was a teenager, her love life has been a series of disasters: her first sweetheart was executed by the state of Virginia, and her next lover was sent to jail for murder. Now Isis is a successful jewelry designer, but she remains a failure with men. When she meets Logic, a Las Vegas high roller who treats her like a princess, Isis reckons she’s finally struck gold – literally. Logic sees to it that her custom pieces of jewelry are seen on the hottest rap stars and pro athletes.
But when this Mr. Right ends up in jail too, Isis starts to believe that she’s cursed, that she’s a true Black Widow. Always one to roll with the punches, she embraces her life and walks bravely down all its twisted paths, taking her business to unprecedented heights while letting the men who dare to get involved with her take their chances.

Imagine This is the sequel to Vickie Stringer’s bestselling Let That Be the Reason, her stunning debut novel based on life as she knew it in the shocking underworld of the sex and drug trade.
Vickie Stringer has gained a legion of fans for her portrayal of Pamela, a.k.a. Carmen, a woman who had it all but lost out when the love of her life left her penniless and alone to raise their son. Pamela refuses to remain powerless, though. She pulls herself up, becomes major hustler in the street game, gains independence, and makes big money – but the consequences are more dreadful than she ever imagined.
Imagine This continues the saga of Pamela as she does jail time and has to decide who she really is: Pamela, a woman who, more than anything, loves her son and wants to be there to raise him; or Carmen, the ruthless baller, who does the crime, serves the time, and honors, at any expense, the code of the street.

THE CLIQUE by Brandie
The first rule when trying to survive in prison is to find people who are going to watch your back. Sometimes alliances like this are made in the weirdest situations. For Mo, Royal, Emil, and Ascada, the last place they wanted to be was in prison together, but as fate would have it, they all became inmates of the Walsh Facility for Women. As different as they all are, they do have one thing in common – Kemp. Kemp is known on the streets as a hustler with nothing to lose. He doesn’t care about anyone but himself, and that included the children that he’s fathered with three of the women who are locked up.
But when Kemp gets arrested by the Feds, all sorts of the drama jumps off, putting the girls in a situation that they can’t get out of alone. The last thing any of the girls wanted to do was “bury the hatchet” and be friends, but they will have to in order to get out of alive.

After five years in prison, drug dealer Jamal Stewart is becoming reacquainted with the perils of the streets. His rehabilitation, if any, can only be seen through the yes of his new love Dream Nelson, a middle school teacher.
With a criminal record, finding employment becomes a job in itself for Jamal. His best friend Dawg pushes him to contact an old cocaine connect. Dream attempts to keep him from the life of crime that eventually reels her in as well.
Living in a world filled with unprotected sex, violence, payoffs, disloyalty and drug dealing, Jamal becomes the focus of a man hunt. Vowing to never return to prison, he decides he will hold court in the streets. He soon learns how some things can be caught…without a chase.
This multi-plotted suspense novel will bring reality far too close to home.
