WHEN THINGS GO SOUTH
Raised by southern Pentecostal grandparents, the journey of her Momma, whose Farah Fawcett-type beauty landed her seven husbands, and her seventies playboy Daddy, who has been married five times, proves to cause confusion for the heart of a small-town southern girl Riley Blair, who's determined not to follow in the same path of bad relationships as her parents. Riley Blair supposes it may be her destiny or that bad relationships are just as hereditary as her brown eyes and big boobs, when at sixteen, she finds herself pregnant by a drug-addicted bad boy. Riley Blair, having strong faith in her grandfather's fire and brimstone preaching, along with a flair for the broken, is entangled with taking to heart her Momma's humorous prolific southern philosophies. This sets Riley on a path tainted with chaos, heartbreak, death, and addiction. But Riley Blair keeps the faith that God has someone for her, like a prize at the county fair. She never loses hope for happiness or the fairytale life she dreamed of as a child. Although Riley Blair's story sheds light on a humorous, messy, southern upbringing, it will also pull at your heartstrings and have you rooting for authentic, unapologetic protagonist Riley Blair. A protagonist who gives into the simple pleasures of a feeling, paying no regard to the trauma that may come. Riley Blair recognizes early on that life truly is like a roller coaster ride. It may have its ups and downs, twists and turns, but how boring would it be and who would want to get on if it just went straight? So, at times, you may have to hold on tight and scream, but other times you can throw your hands in the air, let go, and enjoy the ride. The crazy beautiful ride.Complete

Entangled(COMPLETED)
Quinn Matthews is a whole vibe-a certified boss in the operating room and a straight-up genius. She graduated college early, became a surgeon before most people even figured out their majors, and now she's making six figures, saving lives, and getting respect in the medical field.

That's where things get... complicated. No matter how high she rises, Quinn can't seem to shake her love for hood boys.

His hatred for the Blackwells is personal, and he's vowed never to let it go. But just when Indigo thinks life can't hit him harder, he discovers his little sister, Nyla, is dating a Blackwell- a Mitchell family enemy through and through. The betrayal cuts deep, and Indigo's world spins out of control.

G.C Bounds (Generational Curses: The Seeds That Were Planted)
This book will touch on the generational curse that go on in not only African American families but also all families across the world . this is a Christian book so this amazing story God gave me will be backed up by mostly scripture. This is the first Book it will touch on briefly 5 generations and how life affected them through their previous generations mistakes. My plans for this book is to make hard copies to sell in stores this is just the first outlet I pray this book helps the lost souls or helps people realize in life why we sometimes deal with certain patterns in our life. And this I believe will help Christians realize why it's certain sins and struggles it's hard for them to immediately turn away from. God gave me revelation through this book. My goal from this book is to get people to come closer and build their relationship with God Because the End times are Here!!! Two more books on the way as all stay turned.Complete
