The Best of Both Worlds

Marvin Bundy Sr. left a hefty legacy behind. Blasts from the past have loved ones recalling yesteryear as if it were yesterday. Cut down in his prime, Marv Sr. was deprived of his chance to be a father. Will his heir come full circle or has too much venom been spewed?

At The Court's Mercy starts right up where Driven left readers. Nasir has acquired custody of his little soldier, he's gainfully employed as a teacher's assistant, making a difference in others lives and he and Farren, after being together a year, are looking to rent a house. Still a big time flirt, Nasir is unable to restrain himself around other women; after all he is his fathers' son.

Must be nice having someone who sticks around when the rough times get thick.

Torn between Farren, Nakea, his jump off, the past and living honorably, Nasir has to learn that a man has to do what a man has to do as well as face the consequences of those actions.

With charges racking up, tragedy boiling over, and demands being made, it becomes a struggle between the just vs. the unjust. The game doesn't change only the players. Has the cycle ended?

Even with all of the chaos, I liked Driven more. Here it seems as though the characters have gotten even more dysfunctional and further away from dealing with the loss of Marv Sr. Though Nasir does show traits of becoming a well adjusted man and role model, his heart is still in the streets. I know that it's hard out here for a PIMP, so I'm preparing for the remainder of the raucous.
