Transition isn’t easy, especially when you have to migrate to a whole other state after so many truths had been exposed, and all betrayers have been shown as who they really are. But is there even more underneath the surface than what was already confessed? Nio, critically injured by the rest of the crew, is not only fighting for his life but some type of truth to be told after all was said and done. Was Dante lying about the events of the past, just to get closer to Drea? Was he fabricating some of the wrongful things that his brother may have done just to steal the attention of the crew, and to gain more riches and reach for himself? Drea herself has a hard time transitioning while readying herself for a divorce, but it seems as though the more she peels back about her own reality, the more she finds out. Trina and Flame, still balancing home life and worried about the future of their money, try their best to keep everyone together, all until they receive a visit from Trina’s sister Tahiry. With City living with them, a new love seems to blossom, but it isn’t as easy as it seems with Tahiry being as hard up as her younger sister Trina. When Nadia slithers her way back into the picture, it might as well be a fight to the finish to win over the City Slicker’s love. Smalls and Alaina are as excited as ever to move back home to Brooklyn, yet it opens old wounds and remind them of all they had yet to conquer together. Could they join the growing number of couples who could possibly call it quits before it’s too late? All of the drama comes to a head and even more secrets and tall tales are exposed in this explosive finale. Plenty of blood will be shed before it’s all over. For the women, it will definitely teach them that there are consequences of choosing a forbidden street king.

I’m the one she should have stayed away from. The thief, the hustler, the boy without a past or a future. A kid forged by the rules of the streets.

Fifteen years later, she’s back in my life, needing a favor only I can provide. The street rat she once knew is now king of an empire, where every favor comes at a price.

Sex. Violence. Scandal. These are words we rarely associate with the sacred text of the Bible. Yet in this brilliant new book, Jonathan Kirsch shows that the Old Testament is filled with some of the most startling and explicit stories in all of Western literature. These tales of seduction and rape, voyeurism and exhibitionism, intermarriage and illegitimacy, assassination and murder have been suppressed by religious authorities throughout history precisely because they are so shocking. "You mean that's in the Bible?" is the common reaction of the contemporary reader to the stories that Kirsch retells and explores. In The Harlot by the Side of the Road, Kirsch recounts these suppressed and mistranslated tales in the grand storytelling tradition. Here is the tale of Dinah, the young Israelite daughter raped by a princely suitor. The price for her hand in marriage? The circumcision of every man in his kingdom. Here, too, is the story of Lot's daughters, who, when faced with the possibility that they are the last survivors on earth, must copulate with their drunken father to continue their race. And the story of Tamar, the harlot by the side of the road, who must disguise herself as a prostitute and seduce her father-in-law in order to bear the child who has been promised her. Kirsch places each story within the political and social context of its time, and delves into the latest biblical scholarship to explain why each story was originally censored. He also brings to light when and where each story was first written down, and how it found its way into the Bible. And he shows how these stories have something important to say to contemporary readers who might never pick up a Bible. Kirsch reveals that the Bible's real power lies in its unflinching lessons in human nature. And he illuminates the surprising modernity of the Bible's characters: these were, like us, people delicately balanced between their destructive and generous natures. Certain to excite controversy and ignite intellectual debate, The Harlot by the Side of the Road will undoubtedly be one of the year's most talked-about books.

Riddle me this... "I am neither dead, nor alive, and I'm not something little Madison can hide. But you will be dead, by the time this is done... the timer starts now, and the games have just begun..." Madison Montgomery comes from money and power, but when someone close to her commits the ultimate crime, Madison must live with her tainted name for the rest of her life. When she begins Riverside Preparatory Academy, the private school her father has swept her into in The Hamptons, she hopes for a fresh start. What she wasn't hoping for was the pack of bad boys who run the school; ten, to be exact. When Madison gains the attention of their leader, Bishop Vincent Hayes, a whole new world that she didn't think existed is exposed to her. A whole world that starts and ends with The Elite Kings Club and these boys, are about to flip her world upside down. Secrets are overflowing and family lies are about to be exposed. Is there more to Madison Montgomery than even she knows? About this book: I need to admit something right now. The Silver Swan is f*cked. It might be the most insane story I've ever written with equally insane characters. Who knew? You know, when I started this book, it was supposed to be YA. I wanted to write a book that my sisters could read. A book that won't have people look at my mum like "damn... what sort of messed up shit happened to your kid?." The angst, the assholeness, the games, the f**kery, the WHAT THE F**KING F**K ARE YOU DOING !!!... I cannot even.... anyway, this is a warning (and the only one I'll give you). It's crazy. I don't compare my work to my others, but this book is f**ked. It will most likely stomp all the f**k over people's hard limits (and not give a sh*t while it's doing it) and will make you second guess all the morals you thought you had. This most definitely is not looking like a love story right now... more like a..... I don't even.... anyway, I apologise now. You asked for it..
