Synopsis:
The golden boy, Mandingo, has warmed the beds of many women during New York City’s chilly winter nights. Yet, since he didn’t know or care about these women’s marital status- many of them were married with children- eventually he finds himself in a world of trouble, facing deportation and even the threat of losing his life.
But, Mandingo isn’t oblivious to the dangers ahead of him. After surviving a previous murder attempt, he told himself that he would be more careful. Yet, with so many women throwing themselves and their rich husbands’ money at him, those words are easier said than done.
Mandingo received a blessing from God in the form of a new lease on life. But when his thirst for money, fame, and the mind control he has over the women he beds causes him to go fishing in a pond of women that are married to the most powerful and ruthless men in New York, will Mandingo open a can of worms that even he can’t overcome?
Ride on Mandingo’s wave of sex, money, and mayhem. Experience the chill of his manly prowess and the thrill of him trying to avoid the punishment that his enemies have in store for him. Then learn if Mandingo’s over the top sex game can bring him the luck he needs to survive any and all pitfalls or if riding the dangerous wave of adulterous sex will finally make him wipe out once and for all.
