American Bad Boy
Samuel's dream of buying a recording studio, making a hit record, and becoming a famous hip-hop artist has hit a snag. The money he borrowed to make it all happen is long overdue. With the money all gone and the record far from finished, he becomes desperate for a solution. So when "The Bruce"--unscrupulous businessman and owner of a string of male strip clubs--gives him only six months to pay back $60,000 or say goodbye to his dream, Samuel knows what he's got to do. To make it all work, he going to take it all off. With his looks and his talents, raising enough money to pay off the loan and complete the record ought to be a cinch, but there's still a hitch: for his plan to work, he needs to keep it secret for a number of reasons. First: his "keeper" of a girlfriend would drop him if she found out; second: he's the son of one of the most prominent, respected preachers in the community. And while keeping his job hidden proves easy at first, it isn't long before word gets out. And now, with lines to get into the club extending around the block, women are starting to talk. To top it off, "The Bruce" will stop at nothing to keep his best moneymaker from getting away. It's too late for Samuel to turn back, and he's come too far to quit. How much hiding is possible when the time comes to expose a star?
