White Cat (Curse Workers)

White Cat (Curse Workers) Review

Cassel comes from a family of curse workers—people who have the power to change your emotions, your memories, your luck, all by the slightest touch of their hands. Since curse work is illegal, they’re all criminals. But not Cassel.

Now he is sleepwalking, propelled into the night by terrifying dreams about a white cat. He also notices that his brothers are keeping secrets from him. As Cassel begins to suspect he’s part of one huge con game, he must unravel his past and his memories. To find out the truth, Cassel will have to outcon the conmen.

Supernatural Interracial: How the Beautiful Light-Elf Became the First Female to Break the Heart of Cato the Black Vampire Stud

Supernatural Interracial: How the Beautiful Light-Elf Became the First Female to Break the Heart of Cato the Black Vampire Stud Review

Warning: Explicit Supernatural Interracial Sex Story

We live in a time where it is widely accepted that vampires and elves are only found in books and movies and to believe that they really exist is less than intelligent. This is exactly how the elves, vampires and other magnificent creatures of earth want it to be.

Even though some of the key events in this story went on right here in the building I live in, I would never have suspected any of this was possible if Cato hadn't needed someone to unload on so badly. Even a 275-year-old black vampire can have his heart crushed; and, when it happened to Cato he couldn't take not having someone to talk to. So, over the course of the last few days, he's told me the whole tale.

Cato is real and here is the true story of him going from heart-throb to heartbreak.

Fink became like a brother to Robert Dunn during last two years of his life, absorbing his journey. He spent more than a year with Dorothy's family, chronicling her story.

Curses and cons. Magic and the mob. In Cassel Sharpe’s world, they go together. Cassel always thought he was an ordinary guy, until he realized his memories were being manipulated by his brothers. Now he knows the truth—he’s the most powerful curse worker around. A touch of his hand can transform anything—or anyone—into something else. That was how Lila, the girl he loved, became a white cat. Cassel was tricked into thinking he killed her, when actually he tried to save her. Now that she’s human again, he should be overjoyed. Trouble is, Lila’s now been cursed to love him. And if Lila’s love is as phony as Cassel’s made-up memories, then he can’t believe anything she says or does.

When Cassel’s oldest brother is murdered, the Feds recruit Cassel to help solve the crime. But the mob is after him too—they know how valuable he could be. Cassel is going to have to stay one step ahead of both sides just to survive. But where can he turn when he can’t trust anyone—least of all, himself?

Black Heart (Intersections in Communications and Culture: Global Approaches and Transdisciplinary Perspectives)

Black Heart (Intersections in Communications and Culture: Global Approaches and Transdisciplinary Perspectives) Review

Black Heart is a provocative and polemical critique of African American literary studies at the beginning of the twenty-first century. Through a series of sharp and insightful essays on a wide range of critical thinkers, Phillip M. Richards traces what he sees as an erosion of moral reflection in African American literary culture—a process that has left contemporary black academic criticism socially, politically, and culturally hollow. Exploring the work of Henry Louis Gates, Jr., Michael Dyson, Karla Holloway and others, Black Heart sets forth the rhetorical strategies of present-day African American critical writing, and probes the ethical dimensions of its institutional life in the academy, the media, and the public sphere. Richards undertakes to recover the procedures by which cultural and moral value may be recovered for black literary culture and to establish the possibilities for a new humanism in African American writing and literary culture.
