God-daddy Chandler M. Josie

Janine and Falana are best friends. They have been for years, growing up in the Bahamian-American community of Port Salerno and also the children of neighborhood friends. Their bond, cemented by the one thing that they had in common; a local man chosen by their parents to stand as God-parent when they were christened as infants, a man they affectionately refer to as God-Daddy. God-Daddy is a successful businessman, controversial to some because he achieved big city success in this small town setting; so successful, that it has been suspected, rumored, and speculated that the majority of his wealth is being accumulated by illegal means. Although his business practices are debated, one thing that is evident and is no secret to anyone, is his love that he has for his God-daughters. He generously showers them with gifts and pretty much grants them their hearts desire simply for the asking. As they grew older, Janine and Falana became more inquisitive of God-Daddy's influence and business acumen. Understandably, the rumors and implications of their God-Daddy led them to want to discover answers for themselves. They are torn, however, between being unwavering in their love for him and not doubting the man that has been a constant in their life and wondering could the whispers and negative, suggestive conversations have some truth to them. As circumstances, both direct and indirect in involvement began to surround them, Janine and Falana are drawn into a side of God-Daddy's world that they wondered about, but could not confirm, existed. As events unfold from around college campuses in Tallahassee, the waterfront and neighborhoods of Port Salerno, and the islands of the Bahamas, will they finally get the answers that have been eluding them for years? Or will they discover some things that should have remained unknown?
