About the author

Latif Mercado has been a part of the Freestyle Music scene for well over 25 years, and though his role in the beginning was minimal, the role he’s been playing ever since, has been massive, and a major force behind the genre’s continued success.

As a Booking Agent with a who's who roster of Freestyle Legends, as well as his managerial involvement with such industry icons as Lil' Suzy and The Cover Girls, rarely would you find a Freestyle event happening without Latif somewhere in the mix.

In an attempt to make people aware of the fact that Freestyle isn’t just a music, but rather a culture, La’ began writing books, in hopes of reaching fans through a medium they would never expect, and in 2011, his debut novel, FREESTYLE FOR LIFE, did just that!

**Since then, Latif has released several books that, not only feature Freestyle as part of its overall theme, but also its main characters of Latin decent.

Though born and raised in New York, Latif currently resides in North Carolina with his wife, two grown children, four grandkids and a dog named Coco.

Latif loves hearing from his readers, answering questions, and sharing whatever advice he possibly can, whether it be on writing, or maybe something Freestyle related, so be sure to reach out, even if it’s just to say hi.

[R☕️ · Rating 3 out of 5]

I finished this book in about a day and hmmm. I love the plot of the book. A vampire singer who feeds on the most loyal fans. A suspicious radio host and a mysterious man who will stop at no end to find her but for what reason? Its a great outline! I feel we got a bit lost with too much action in the book and there were a couple of inconsistencies in the vampire realm the author chose. You can definitely make a fantasy realm your own but if you are going to set rules make sure you stick to them. I would also like to know how she became a vampire in the first place since it seems she got bitten in her late teens/early 20’s. If that is true and Manny is her father then he would be in his 80’s if she “claims” to be in her 50’s in an interview. I think a rewrite would do this book a lot of justice and that for a first time fantasy book for this author he did a great job!
