Backstabbers!!!

The two rivals at the helm of Cut Throat Records and The Melody Room in D.C. are vying for control of Quincy "Q" Underwood's vocal talents. Unfortunately for Q, the lead singer in a band called Taboo, he is under the clutches of the Melody Room's thug owner, Raymond James and his posse. Cut Throat Records' owner, Victor Sweet also wants a piece of the action, and uses his street-smart wife, Antoinette, to do the dirt. Knowing singing is Q's heart, Victor, Raymond, Antoinette, and other undesirables use trickery, blackmail, and murder to get what they want. Antoinette develops a relationship with Q, which may cost him his career and his life. The story also reveals a connection between the characters that causes real problems with the plan to dominate Q and his group, which adds more drama to the tale. CUT THROAT captures the reader's attention from beginning to end, and I commend K. Roland Williams for sharing his writing talent. The ruthless characters make CUT THROAT an authentic hood tale that will be remembered for a long time. Reviewed by Dawnna for The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers

WATCH YOUR BACK!

The new TCP writer K. Rolland Williams is one of the authors that you need to be watching. I see each book getting better and better. This book will have you guessing til the very end, just when you think you know what is gonna happen he switches on yoU---everyone one in the story needs to watch their back.

CUT THROAT IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT.

LET ME START OFF BY SAYING K. ROLAND WILLIAMS DID HIS THING IN HIS DEBUT NOVEL. NEXT ONE YOU GOT TO COME HARD. CAUSE THIS BOOK WAS WHAT I LOVE IN A BOOK. I WAS CAPTIVATED FROM BEGINNING TO END. QUINCY UNDERWOOD ALL HE WANTED WAS TO BE THE STAR. HE KNEW HE WAS. TO LIVE LIFE LIKES HE DESERVES. BUT RAYMOND JAMES & ANTIONETTE SWEET HAD A DIFFERENT AGENDA YOU HAVE TO READ THIS BOOK IT TAKES YOU ON TWIST & TURNS, DECEIT, LIES JUST PLAIN GRIMY STUFF ALL YOU CAN IMAGINE IN THIS WELL PUT TOGETHER BOOK . MR. WILLIAMS I CAN'T WAIT TO READ SOME MORE STUFF FROM YOU. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK TO ALL READERS YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT. REVIEW BY LADYSCORPIO (REAL DIVAS OF LITERATURE BOOKCLUB) 5 STARS.

great book

i just got through reading this Book by K. ROland Williams and i couldn't put it down. now it may be cliche about Books regarding a aspiring Musician and there life at trying to get to the top and there surroundings,but it never gets old. the main character in this Book Quincy(Q) is a Singer who is torn between the Stage and the Streets. winning at all costs and also the possibilitys of losing everything all at once. this story is a roll of the dice which could mean having it all and also losing it all. no middle ground and that is what makes this book so compelling and just keeps you reading page after page. so many twists and turns which will leave you wanting more. i dig Q's ode to Stevie Wonder with Q's Songs in the Key of Life" it is very fitting in the end. a must read.
