Timid… Weak… Invisible.
These are the words that many people use to describe Asian men in the modern world—a quiet acceptance of this not-so-hidden truth.
But what if there was someone who decided to break the mold? What if someone decided to discard the “model minority” moniker and create a new, more kinetic personality?
Black Sheep is a series of inner thoughts spread across a lifetime of experiences that created this new evolution of the modern-day Asian man. This poetry book was created with the hope of moving the needle away from being the docile, harmless platonic friend to the prime example of emotional intelligence, unending confidence, and attraction that goes way beyond the physical.
EVERY SECRET HAS A PRICE
When U.S. Marine Angelo Marquez is sent to Spain on what appears to be a simple overseas assignment, the break from monotony seems like just what the doctor ordered. But between the hot summer nights and the strong drinks, deeply buried memories always seem to claw their way back to the present.
A trusted friend hides the true reason for bringing him there.
A violent organization is watching every move.
And the woman he meets—confident, intoxicating, and impossible to ignore—is connected to it all.
Every action he takes pulls him deeper into a web of secrets.
Every choice he makes carries consequences he can't predict.
Drawn into a dangerous world of hidden agendas and buried pasts, Angelo must decide who he can trust—before the lies close in around him.
American Novela is a story about the risk of trust, the weight of unspoken secrets, and where the biggest betrayal comes from the person you never wanted to doubt.
