What's the first sign that lets you know you're dealing with a sociopath? Corporate Thugs is riddled with clues. Set in the new reigning hub of African-American drama - suburban Atlanta - it explores the psyche of a man whose desperate yearning for superstardom renders him straight-up certifiable. It depicts the hardcore competitiveness of professional football alongside the cut-throat battle for corporate success. But in this game, only one person can win. Gerald Alexander had only two dreams, to play professional football in the NFL and to make the cover of Sports Illustrated. When the former became a reality it was short-lived due to a serious injury. And just like that, all the fame, fortune, parties, and women... gone. On the contrary, his best friend since childhood, Marcus Stone, was on top of the world - a successful business, a beautiful wife, and a fat bank account...he seemed to have it all. Being a supportive friend, Marcus offers Gerald a job hoping Gerald would have a positive impact on his company. But when jealousy and murder come between them, which one will fall? Could Gerald be so callous that he'd set his best friend up? Is Marcus even capable of unleashing his own wrath? They solved the riddle. Can you?
About the Author: The only thing Bridgett Renay loves doing more than writing is breathing. If you let her tell it, the first spoken words from the quiet but observant Navy veteran were, "I should really write this down". As a young girl she undoubtedly had the gift. Everything from poetry to short stories filled her PeeChee folder with fantasies as well as the realities of life growing up in south central Los Angeles. And her talents didn't go unnoticed. A Thanksgiving poem she wrote in elementary school found its way into the neighborhood newspaper, but it wasn't a sign of what was to immediately come. Before pursuing her dream of becoming an acclaimed novelist, the pragmatic Bridgett Renay believed she had to first make good on a promise she made to God. That promise revolved around the pursuit of higher learning and community service and was made after He healed her from a traumatic childhood incident. The years of personal triumphs earning a Bachelor of Science in Technical Communication and a Master of Business Administration, as well as professional growth as a corporate operative and Navy Reservist, tells the story of a journey that took her to faraway places, introduced her to intoxicating people, and shaped the way she viewed the world and her place in it. Now that she has reached the top of her pyramid, per se, Bridgett Renay is ready for the novelistic spotlight. The pen is back, the passion never left ...another journey begins.
