They say “revenge is best served cold.” I tried this. However, they didn’t say that when the tables turn on you, revenge is just as hot and heated as a California forest fire. –Angel
Sisters Angel and Alex find life difficult after the death of their mom and their father is non-existent after a heated blow-up. Having a daughter, Angel does whatever she has to, making sure that her daughter and sister are straight. Robbing drug dealers, dope boys, and high rollers was never a thought of Angel’s until an opportunity rises and she takes advantage. Even knowing the high risks involved, Angel robs rich bosses until a single lick sets them up nicely. For the safety of her family, Angel breaks away from that life style until she crosses path with a devil from her past. Full of emotions and with revenge on the brain, Angel put into motion a vicious plan that karma finds her way in, turning the spiteful tides back on Angel.
Alex is tired of Angel’s Robinhood-esque adventures and is weary of the safety of her sister and their small family. Giving Angel an ultimatum, Alex is set to move on with her life with the love of her life, her best friend Maya. A drunken night of “girls just wanna have fun” leads to a third wheel joining in the fun. However, the couple gets more than they bargain for when their sexcapades end with unexpecting consequences. Will the dynamics of Alex and Maya’s relationship change as a result of their drunken stupor?
Forget hot water, Angel ends up in boiling water, triggering karma to enter and putting her in a unsavory position. Will ill-fated revenge and karma cause Angel’s demise? Blended love, unruly treachery, high-key risks, and cold hearted revenge are found in this African American urban hood story. Newly signed author Lakia under Twyla T Presents kicks off her debut book in her knockout blazing new series, Surviving A Dope Boy: A Hood Love Story.
