Good Peoples and 4 Guys and Trouble, both Blackboard best-sellers, sealed Marcus Major's reputation as a hot name in contemporary fiction. A Man Most Worthy is a lively story of love, ambition, sex, and friendship. When young millionaire John Sebastian decides to win back the great love of his life, he vows to succeed no matter what it takes. But he soon realizes that he will have to prove himself worthy of her.
New York Times best-selling authors E. Lynn Harris and Eric Jerome Dickey, and Blackboard best-selling authors Colin Channer and Marcus Major have joined forces in Got to Be Real, a compilation of fresh, funny, and honest love stories. Each one is a unique look at love in the modern, urban age. Harris' leading man faces one of his greatest fears with a Valentine's gift that could change his life forever. Dickey takes readers on a trip south of the border that leads to a steamy relationship where race and a language barrier creates no deterrent. Jamaica is the hot spot where Channer weaves his titillating tale of people in the music industry. A certified womanizer meets his match in Major's provocative story set in Philadelphia. These four popular African-American writers have put together a treasury of stories that is as sexy and entertaining as it is candid and thought-provoking.
Marcus Major, author of the Blackboard best-seller Good Peoples, crafts this fun, stylish and delightfully perceptive tale of four best friends, an oath--and one very special young woman. Colin, Dexter, Ibn, and Michael have been inseparable since college. Besides sharing similar interests, they have someone very important in common--Erika. Erika is the little sister of a friend who died, and they've promised to watch out for her. But when Erika grows up into a very attractive woman, it proves increasingly difficult for the guys to ignore their changing feelings for her. Narrator Ezra Knight gives the listener a front row seat as the group's dynamic is disturbed by Erika's new relationship and each friend is forced to re-evaluate the way he treats the women in his life.
Novelist Marcus Major creates this sexy, sharp-witted story of love and the dating game in the style of Eric Jerome Dickey. Set in African-American and Latino communities, Good Peoples looks beyond a man's bravado to his longing for that special someone. Tired of the dating scene in suburban Philadelphia, 29-year-old Myles Moore is waiting for the right woman. He fills his days with basketball, teaching grade school, and "good peoples," but his buddies always get on his case about his lofty standards in females. When he meets beautiful Marisa Marrero, a black Latina lawyer, he knows she is the woman of his dreams. But Marisa is all too human-ambitious, self-sufficient, and with her own views of romance. With Marcus Major's ear for authentic dialog and Peter Francis James' dramatic performance Myles and and each of his exuberant friends step from the pages.
