The best laid plans

On the verge of becoming a hip-hop star, diva Stacy Watts begins receiving threats from her ex-lover who was at one time her manager. He will reveal her unstabled past if she doesn't let him back into her life. Stacy devises a plan she hopes will expose him, to her fans and the media, for what he is, just another spurned lover seeking revenge. After agreeing to an interview with up-and-coming television host, and media playboy, Omar Masterson, Stacy decides to tell her own story. She also hopes to persuade Omar to go along with her plan; pretend he is her new beau. Omar, who has had more than a mild interest in Stacy, agrees. But there is a hitch to Stacy's plan. Her new manager, who treats Stacy like a daughter, doesn't like it, she thinks Omar is another opportunist. For the first time, Stacy is at odds with her manager. She wants to do this, plus something about Omar touches her heart. Omar must make some major decisions when Stacy's 'ex' issues more damaging threats. When unsettled issues from her manager's past, along with her manager's unexpected medical issues arise, both ladies are forced to take a good look at the state of their careers and their lives. STRAIGHT TO THE HEART is an intriguing, and at times, suspenseful offering of rags to riches. Michelle Monkou writes a solid story of abandonment, jealously, and monumental expectations, all which caused negative choices. She gives real characters with the strength to accept the challenge and reach beyond themselves. This is a warm story with a somewhat surprising, but very interesting ending.
