Markus Randolph and his wife Angel have found themselves plunged into a world of drugs, crime, murder, and undercover Federal agents.

J.D. and Rico Smalls have the drug trade sown up in Reidsville, North Carolina; however, J. D.'s affiliations are about to change life in "small town America" as they know it. When visitors from out of state come calling, can the two survive the outcome...?

Eva Miller has come home to North Carolina after spending most her life in the big city, but when she meets the love of her life, his family's business threatens everything. Can her love save him when the bullets start flying...?

This Week on A Cup of Coffee and a Good Book Radio Program: Greg Interviews Deanna Proach, Author of To Be Maria



Seventeen-year-old Anya Preschnikov dreams of one day becoming a famous actor, but she's faced with two problems: her one-parent, dysfunctional family neglects her and has no money to support her, and at school, she's the target of her peers' contempt. Anya believes that in order to secure her stepping stone to stardom, she must dress like the rich girls and be surrounded by a large network of friends. All of this changes, though, when Maria Hernandez comes to Peach Valley Senior High. Rebellious and headstrong, Maria instantly gains the acceptance of her peers - yet she sees in Anya what everyone else does not: her physical beauty and immense talent. So when Maria extends her hand of friendship, Anya is elated. Her lifelong dream seems like it's about to become a reality - until it falls short one Saturday night at a party when a boy's rude comment sends her into a rage.

Desperate to belong somewhere, Anya and Maria set out to find new friends outside of school. They soon meet Alex and Marissa, a young couple who eagerly welcomes them into their world of parties and drugs. Anya and Maria soon learn that Alex is a drug dealer, but they're so lured by his wealth and aggressive confidence that they can't resist his friendship. What they don't know is that Alex's gang is at war with a rival gang - one run by Anya's older brother, Adrik - until a deadly incident puts their lives in danger's path. To make matters worse, Alex refuses to let Anya and Maria out of his sight.


The two young women soon find themselves forced into a situation that could have very tragic consequences if they don't escape it soon...
