Story
Award-winning authors Victoria Christopher Murray and ReShonda Tate Billingsley are both beloved for their strong female leads and juicy plotting. In Sinners & Saints, Murray and Billingsley join forces to tell a tale packed with drama, scandal, and redemption. Jasmine Bush and Rachel Adams both want their husbands to be elected president of the National Baptist Association, and they’re willing to use plenty of low-down tricks to win. But when another woman joins the fray, she proves more devious than either of them could imagine.

Hurt people tend to want to hurt people. Great story with lots of bits of truths and hopefully shades of exaggerations. Funny how some things never change. Lol.

Frustrated with this disconnect and passionate about the hip-hop community and culture, John and three of his best childhood friends started the iconic fashion label FUBU (For Us By Us) in John’s mother’s home in Queens.

In my book, you will meet a little girl named Viola who ran from her past until she made a life-changing decision to stop running forever. This is my story, from a crumbling apartment in Central Falls, Rhode Island, to the stage in New York City, and beyond. This is the path I took to finding my purpose but also my voice in a world that didn’t always see me.

Loved everything about this book. Viola is a down to earth super-beautiful super-being to tell us her story so openly including the good, the bad and the ugly things in life. A big thank you to her family for allowing her to share some of their stories too. Giving honor where it was due but opening eyes along the way. Life is meant to be lived... No matter where you start, or what obstacles you encounter.... Keep living your life.
