From the grimy streets of the Upper 9th Ward in New Orleans, to the urban stockades of Bed-Stuy in Brooklyn, BlacK SheeP traces Duce's poignant and haunting journey from college-life, to thug-life, to eternal-life. Life was hard knock in the hood where Duce grew up in a rotting shotgun house with his mother and younger brother. He and his best friend, Jason, were both intellectually gifted teens who struggled together to find a place in society, while abiding in the mire of drugs and poverty in their community. Duce and Jason's tenacity however, set them on opposite pathways - Jason became the neighborhood "Dope Man," and Duce became a "College Boy." By the time Duce graduated from Southern University, it seemed he had it all - honorable grades, an attractive, high-society girlfriend, and a scholarship to attend grad school at Big State, a large flagship university in a rural midatlantic college town. But when he arrived at Big State, culture-shock knocked him off his high horse. Ultimately, his world crashed and he lost everything. When he returned home he couldn't escape the drug culture in his community. At the pith of his despair, he met a young black counselor named Coby in his court-ordered treatment program. Coby felt spiritually compelled to break Duce's defenses and uplift him through black empowerment. However, as Coby helped Duce overcome his demons, he began to unleash the ghosts in his own past. By fate, Duce, Jason and Coby were pieces of the same puzzle, posted on a platform of social injustice, government corruption and street life. The connection they had could be the insight they needed to make life make sense, or the dagger that would rip their souls apart.

From New York Times bestselling author Meghan March comes a story of untold truths and one man’s redemption in the Dirty Mafia Duet. Every family has a black sheep. In the infamous Casso crime family, that black sheep is me—Cannon Freeman. Except I’m not a free man. I’ve never been free. Not since the day I was born. I owe my loyalty to my father, Dominic Casso, even if he won’t publicly acknowledge me as his blood. I’ve never had a reason to go against his wishes… until I met her. Drew Carson turned my world upside when she walked into my club looking for a job. Now, my honor and my life are on the line. Going against my father’s wishes might buy me a bullet straight from his gun, but black sheep or not, it’s time to make my stand. She's worth the fallout.

Here, in his own words, is the true story of America's wildest flying hero, of his extraordinary heroism, and of his greatest battle of all—the fight to survive. The World War II air war in the Pacific needed tough men like Colonel Pappy Boyington and his Black Sheep Squadron. The legendary Marine Corps officer and his bunch of misfits, outcasts, and daredevils gave new definition to “hell-raising”—on the ground and in the skies. Pappy himself was a living legend—he personally shot down twenty-eight Japanese planes, and won the Congressional Medal of Honor and the Navy Cross. He broke every rule in the book doing so, but when he fell into the hands of the vengeful Japanese his real ordeal began.
