About the author
Brooklyn June
24 books53 followersJune first discovered his love of writing in public school where he dazzled his teachers with his creative short stories and intriguing poems. His writing was acknowledged locally when it was featured in his graduating class yearbook.
He abandoned his love for writing for the dangerous life on the streets of Brooklyn. His involvement changed from petty crimes to becoming a major distributor of illegal drugs out of state. During his tenure in these activities he was convicted and incarcerated. His time behind bars gave him new insight but when released on parole he went right back to the life that put him behind the barbed wire fences.
here was no stability in his life and the only person he was responsible for was himself but the birth of his first daughter changed the way he viewed life and he set out to change his existence.
June enrolled into college to pursue his Degree where his creative writing ability was again showcased in this setting and recognized by his English professors.
While pursuing his degree, tragedy struck and one of his closest friends was brutally murdered. Not knowing how to deal with the loss he channeled his pain into something that came to him naturally, he wrote the story.
June began penning his novel This Game Has No Loyalty and incorporated his own experiences into his writing to produce the “realness” his story needed to capture his audience. He created his publishing company, FourShadough Publishing to self publish his body of written work.
In 2013 he was discovered by Ashley & JaQuavis and offered a spot on as a signed author to their new publishing company O.W.L.- Official Writers League. His title International Regime is scheduled to be released 2014-2015.
June is currently penning the follow up to his This Game Has No Loyalty Series.

First off let me say I didn't know this was a short story. But it packed a helluva punch! The Council is a story of 3 sisters---Whitney, Wands, & Wendi--- who are trying to get their father Mason out of jail for crimes he did not commit. They do this by any means necessary. These girls bring their 'A's game with them on their capers having been taught by the best.
My only complaint about this story is how abruptly it ended! I was just getting completely caught up in it and it was over! I can't for the drama to unfold in part 2!!

I really liked this book by June. - The Council. The Council is the 3 daughters of falsely imprisoned ADA Mason. Mason discovered the drug ring involving many high ranking officials. His name was black balked and no lawyer would represent him. They rushed him to trial, charged with murdering 4 people, found him guilty and sent him to the toughest prison in New York, far away from his Manhattan office. His daughters, Whitney, Wanda and Wendi are tough. Mason taught the two oldest Whit and Wanda how to shoot and all learned martial arts for protection and attacks. The girls robbed drug dealers of their money. They found one corrupt lawyer who would represent Mason on appeals for a million dollars. Whitney would visit her father once a month bribe the guard for a few minutes alone and they would discuss plans of action. The warden harrasses Whitney trying to find out why she comes to visit. He's sure they're passing information. He even has one of the prison security follow her. She spies him and contacts Wanda. Together they take care of him leaving his burned out car with a dead body in the trunk. Just as the story heats up it's to be continued.

Really!!!
You left me hanging at the end like that? June, you should be ashamed of yourself. This book reeled me in from page 1. Mason raised 3 smart young women by himself. The sisters band together for one common goal, to get their father released. This book goes through their journey of sisterhood to reach their common goal. I am on to part 2 next. I highly recommend this book. It has enough action to hold your attention.
