Being appointed to the Board of his father's multibillion-dollar empire means nothing to him since his fiancé Avery left him. Carter intends to use every available resource-and compromise every moral-to find her and get her back. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Meanwhile, Carter's brother, Michael, has a problem of his own. His relationship with his wife Kimberly has been strained ever since she exposed a shocking secret in his mother's past that nearly destroyed everyone. Now Kimberly faces a new threat from her own past that could cause her to lose Michael forever and destroy the entire Chase legacy. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Miles away, Avery Jackson tries to put the past behind her. To succeed she will have to make sure the Chase family never discovers the secret she's taken with her. But that may be impossible when an emergency brings her back home and everyone's paths converge when Avery's father, View Park's Chief of Police, is shot. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>But it's not just the Chase men who are in turmoil. Oldest daughter Leigh is being publicly wooed by a hot Hollywood star with a fast, self-indulgent lifestyle that places her in danger and changes her life forever. And with the youngest daughter Haley creating scandal after scandal, the family may be in hot water not even their billions can buy them out of. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <div><FONT size=1><STRONG>(<U>Note:</U> This is book 3 of the Chase series by Angela Winters)</STRONG></FONT></div> <div> </div> <div><A class="" href="http://viewparkexcerpt.blogspot.com/" target=_blank mce_href="http://viewparkexcerpt.blogspot.com/">CLICK HERE TO READ A FULL EXCERPT NOW!</A></div> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><A class="" href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/0758212631?tag=urbanreviewsc-20&camp=211189&creative=373489&linkCode=as1&creativeASIN=0758212631&adid=1YBRNZN4QR54CYNEJGPA&&link_code=as3" target=_blank mce_href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/0758212631?tag=urbanreviewsc-20&camp=211189&creative=373489&linkCode=as1&creativeASIN=0758212631&adid=1YBRNZN4QR54CYNEJGPA&&link_code=as3">CLICK HERE TO ORDER YOUR COPY TODAY!</A></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>Urban Reviewshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01448754239492620738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20345155.post-85557754128324927132008-07-22T11:58:00.001-05:002008-07-22T11:58:44.975-05:00The Forthcoming: Breena Clarke - Stand The Storm<div><IMG src="http://images.barnesandnoble.com/images/24520000/24524641.JPG"></div> <div><STRONG>Breena Clarke</STRONG></div> <div><STRONG>Stand The Storm</STRONG></div> <div><STRONG>Available Now!</STRONG></div> <div> </div> <div> </div> <div>Even though Sewing Annie Coats and her son, Gabriel, have managed to buy their freedom, their lives are still marked by constant struggle and sacrifice.

They are shameless in their attempts to win Rich's heart, but as far as Rich is concerned Jacy has his heart locked up and buried 10 feet deep in the depths of her soul. He just laughs at other women, especially his baby's mother LaTisha and the ever persistent new arrival to the story, Yvonne.<BR><BR>When Jacy tells a little white lie that causes Rich to take a few days to get his head together, it might be just the ticket someone needs to get their grubby little hands on Jacy's man. A twisted series of events causes Jacy and Rich to grow even further apart until the inevitable seems to be occurring. Readers will be held on the edge of their seat as they already know that J.Gail tells a story that doesn't always result in a happy ending. Find out once and for all what will be the fate of two of the most beloved characters in modern urban fiction--Jacy Thomas and Rich Wilkins.</div> <div> </div> <div> </div> <div><A class="" href="http://www.jazolipublishing.com/chap1_3.htm" target=_blank mce_href="http://www.jazolipublishing.com/chap1_3.htm">CLICK HERE TO READ A FULL EXCERPT NOW!</A></div> <div> </div> <div><A class="" href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/0972697853?tag=urbanreviewsc-20&camp=211189&creative=373489&linkCode=as1&creativeASIN=0972697853&adid=049H10479VESMTNSKTNH&&link_code=as3" target=_blank mce_href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/0972697853?tag=urbanreviewsc-20&camp=211189&creative=373489&linkCode=as1&creativeASIN=0972697853&adid=049H10479VESMTNSKTNH&&link_code=as3">CLICK HERE TO ORDER YOUR COPY TODAY!</A></div> <div> </div> <div> </div>Urban Reviewshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01448754239492620738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20345155.post-61075246695218354252008-07-05T14:10:00.001-05:002008-07-05T14:10:03.596-05:00The Forthcoming: John H.

Lazarus claims he witnessed the killing-though his hold on reality is questionable.

Is the man guilty of murder or innocent and in big trouble? With no clues, Vera takes a shot in the dark that sends her on a trail from the local diner to the medical examiner's office to the seedy digs of a street informant, all the way to the FBI.
