You see this princess had dreadlocks that were so long, they dragged behind her when she walked. Not only were they long, they often changed colors and shapes. Yes, yes I understand.

Dubbie would go to live with his grandparents full time. Dubbie has been coming to his grandparents' farm for the summer since he was five years old, so living there was nothing new to him. But now he wouldn't go home after the summer ended. Although this is the life Dubbie wanted for himself, he never realized it would come through heartbreaks and tragedies. In the midst of everything going on in his life, Dubbie also finds the love of his life, the girl next door. She had been there the whole time, and Dubbie never knew it. This is the tale of an unforgettable story where a young man is forced to grow up into adulthood as life unfolds before him. In a way that only a C.R. Waters's novel can, love is allowed to grow through heartaches and pain, laughter and sorrows, where a young man's love for his parents and grandparents is deep and the love of two young people grows deeper.

Book excerpt: Alex Rutledge, freelance and part-time Key West crime scene photographer, awakes to his first day off in months. Late August, the off-season, the dog days. Everything's okay until his phone rings. His old navy buddy, Zack Cahill, now a successful Chicago banker, is in town and, at 8:00 a.m., drunk in Sloppy Joe's. Zack demands that Rutledge join him for a celebratory beer. When Alex arrives at the bar, eight minutes later, Cahill is gone. The day continues downhill. A high-noon murder in the tourist district, the ransacked apartment of a local bartender, and the chance encounter of Abby Womack, Cahill's ex-mistress, combine to convince Alex that Zach Cahill's disappearance may be linked to all of these events. An overnight fire and a drive-by shooting the next morning amplify the strangeness and danger. By calling in favors from a crew of Key West characters, stepping aside of law enforcement, and traveling to New Orleans in an attempt to help his friend, Rutledge will fall deep into a mysterious range war, a fight for the profits from a twenty-year-old smuggling deal.

Book excerpt: It's the late '50s, that yeasty time of a new era struggling to be born, and Detroit is still the fabled Motor City, full of vitality, swagger and vivid characters. A young reporter is learning his craft, and the facts of life. A brutal murder turns out to be both more and less than it seems, and a handicapped boy becomes a pawn in covering up the truth. A gifted politician launches what will surely be a national career. A beautiful girl is torn between her love and the aphrodisiac of power. The story probes the city's gamy underside, from Jimmy Hoffa's Teamsters and their gangland allies to the "respectable" men who deal with them under the table. In the end, the tangle of interlaced schemes erupts into national news.
