Hip Hop Lit and Traditional Romance clash in Thug's Passion!
Hot New Novel by Tracy Gray
(Chicago, IL)
This is a book that had to be written. In an era when most of the books on the shelves of the African-American section of bookstores seem to glamorize and glorify the materialistic trappings, and excess that illegal activities can provide, this book's focus is on a different target. Thug's Passion tells the story of a young woman who has decided that material possessions and a "blinged out" lifestyle are not for her. However, try as she might, Passion can't seem to stop attracting the wrong kind of man. She seems destined to belong to a thug. She's forever a Thug's Passion.
Passion Hill is a twenty-three year old woman who's had a life filled with tragedies. After she buries her mother, and later her first love, she decides that she's had enough. If pain and heartache are requirements for living life as a "hustler's wife", then Passion is content being single.
She's content being single, until she meets Solomon Kent. Solomon's a thug and a drug dealer. He just happens to be the most handsome, most sexy thug/drug dealer that Passion has run into lately. His very presence has Passion reconsidering her stance on never dating another hustler. Add her best friend, a former thug to the mix, and Passion has a few tough decisions to make.
Thug's Passion is a fast moving story, with multi-dimensional characters, realistic portrayals, and a romantic essence that burns up the pages. What's a female to do when her head and her heart are at odds about what's best for her? Pick up Thug's Passion and find out. For more information visit,

This fast moving story, with multi-dimensional characters, realistic portrayals, and a romantic essence that burns up the pages is A MUST READ!!!!
To those on the outside looking in, Passion Hill seems to have it all. She's stunning, self-assured and spoiled. She looks and acts like she's living a charmed life. But looks can be deceiving. Passion's life has been anything but picture perfect. In her 23 years, she's lost a lot. At the age of nine, she was left to mourn her mother's brutal death at the hands of her father's enemies. Thirteen years later, she found herself standing over yet another gravesite crying bitter tears. This time, it was her boyfriend, Lorenzo who was stretched out in the casket. He too, was the victim of a vicious slaying.
After facing the tragedy of losing Lorenzo, Passion makes a promise to herself. She's through messing with hustlers. No more misery and pain. She wants to close the door on that chapter of her life and move on. She's managed to put her life back together with the help of her father, her step mother and Lorenzo's best friend, Jinx Waters. For the first time in years, she's actually happy. She's determined to keep things moving in a positive direction by maintaining her stance on not messing with hustlers until she meets Solomon Kent.
Solomon Kent is everything Passion wants to avoid. He's unreliable. He's cocky. And he's a baller. He's the last thing she needs in her life. But he's also handsome, funny, sexy and GENEROUS. He's exactly what she needs in her life but at what cost?
What's a female to do when her head and her heart are at odds about what's best for her?
