About The Book

A successful young black businessman fights to keep what he’s worked for as everything begins crumbling around him in this novel full of struggle, betrayal, and perseverance.

The higher the rise, the harder the fall…

Blue had his one shot. His entertainment production company had everything: talented artists, professional endorsements, and underground appeal. But after one catastrophic night, Blue is left with nothing. His best friend and business partner turned his back on him. The artists he discovered left him. Worst of all, his girlfriend broke up with him at a time they need each other most.

With his dreams crumbling around him, Blue has hit rock bottom. But to really come up in the world, there is no surrender. Now, all Blue needs is a miracle…
