| Publisher Description: What happen to the next generations after the 'Great Migration, ' and 'Civil Rights movement'? This is one story. Cousins Danielle and Crystal Alexander's world is woven into the 1970's fabric of this inner-city transition with entrepreneurial parents, drug trafficking neighbors, and a love that knows no racial boundaries. From screaming star-struck teen-agers to budding entrepreneurs to deep religious convictions. From a neighborhood basketball court to the NBA to a luxurious lakefront condominium. Danielle compromises personal happiness as she is sucked into and mesmerized by the luxuries of the mighty dollar, even when acquired by illegal means or a legitimately prestigious source. Like many of us, Crystal is unknowingly already rich with integrity, insight, and the ability to wither, and weed out the undesirables that cross her path. Even if that means challenging friends, family and man-made definitions of Gods will. Many of our communities have untapped talent that should be explored and encouraged. It's about respecting and supporting each other's individuality and abilities to move forward in life. You will love the characters innocent, but often-gritty performance, making this a multi-cultural thrill ride Future history will determine if we're standing still, traveling in circles, or moving in a Forward Motion |
