Roxy Reynolds learned all the rules of the street nearly two decades ago as a low-level member of what was once New York City’s most powerful drug organization. She was also a mom at fourteen years old, and did what she had to do to raise her daughter, Chyna. Now Chyna’s all grown up, a stunningly beautiful exotic dancer with a baby girl of her own, while super-sexy Roxy is at the height of her power running Harlem Heat, a gun trafficking ring. It’s a lucrative lifestyle some would do anything to have. And when former drug kingpin Panama Pete returns to the hood after serving fifteen years in prison, a spiral of violence traps Roxy and Chyna and has them running from the law – and for their lives.

Prince, Killa-E, Daddy-O, and Danny grew up together in the projects, moving crack and cocaine, and answering to Diego, the neighborhood drug lord.

But taking the reins of power comes at a high price. Now, with Diego at their back and a traitor in their midst, they find themselves between a kilo and a hard place, ready to spill blood to stay on the top.

There’s a probation officer watching his every move. There are the women in his life, who all want a part of him – his girlfriends and one very sexy psychologist who worked overtime on Jamel in prison. Then there’s the payback plan he’s been dreaming of, getting revenge on those who put him away. It’s a fine line between winning and losing, and Jamel must decide if the world will forever see him as derelict, of if he will rise above the past.

Meta Smith Signs with G-Unit Books

Daniel — Fri, 13 Jul 2007 13:39:00 +0000

Rap star 50 Cent recently added Meta Smith, author of such novels as The Rolexxx Club and Queen of Miami to his growing list of G-Unit authors.

Smith, dubbed the “Queen of Bling Fiction,” was signed to G-Unit book division due to the success of her previous novels, which were released by Warner Books. Smith’s new book titled Heaven’s Fury, which Smith describes as a “nea-noir tale of betrayal and deception.”

“50 Cent has commissioned me to bring you a hot novella reppin’ the streets and so I’m bringing you Heaven’s Fury in November 2007,” Smith said. “It’s all about a good girl who turns bad, once she finds herself caught in the middle of a bloody drug war.” The book is set in Chicago and Gary, Indiana.

In July, Smith is also planning to release an anthology called These Are My Confessions, which Smith labeled “a collection of sizzling Hip-Hop erotica” that features Cheryl Robinson, Electa Rome Parks and Joy King.
