The Thanks You Get is a compelling story that explores human behavior and the driving forces behind people’s actions. The novel’s main character Hank Goodman is drawn into a mystery involving one of the wealthiest men in South Florida, Benjamin Beasley, and an old college acquaintance, the lovely Sonia Santamaria. The three become embroiled in a search for Beasley’s long-lost brother while navigating a myriad of disruptions in their path. Woven seamlessly throughout Corey’s novel is the theme of families, however defined, and the ties that bind them. While turning the pages, Corey hopes his story will compel readers to contemplate whether whether there really is such a thing as coincidence and whether people are naturally inclined to “do the right thing” as they define it in their lives.
Rhythm and Hues - Twenty-Three Stories of Hardship and Hope is a collection of stories that explore the challenges and triumphs experienced by marginalized communities. In America, hardship and hope are strange bedfellows that often travel in tandem through many communities of color. From families and friends mourning the loss of loved ones taken too soon to youngsters striving to achieve through difficulties not of their own making, these pages lift the veil and offer the hued reader a look at the sometimes familiar. They also offer the non-hued reader some understanding of how communities often burdened by crosses so heavy manage time and again to summon the strength to continue looking upward.
