Description:

A romantic thriller introducing two characters, an African American male, Travyon and a Hispanic male, Mario, who are members of two rival gangs. Travyon's jealous rage elevates the hatred with Mario when Trayvon murders Manny, Mario's twin brother. Revenge fuels Mario's hatred and he takes the lives of Trayvon's parents, which creates destruction within the community. Roseanna, Mario's grandmother is tired of the senseless killing in their community. She believes in prayer and asked God for an Angel and her plea for mercy came in the form of a woman, Trayvon's sister, Josie. Josie brought comfort to Mario's dying grandmother and captivated her heart, BUT CAN LOVE CONQUER THE HATE IN MARIO'S HEART? Gang violence amongst African Americans and Hispanics daily plagues and pierces communities, homes, neighborhoods, schools and prisons. According to the Los Angeles Polices Department's latest crime statistics, Los Angeles is home to more than 400 gangs with more than 39,000 documented members. The department believes with gang intervention programs, gang-related crimes dropped 11.2 percent in 2009 compared to the previous year, and gang related homicides dropped 15.6 percent. Summers believes one life lost to gang violence is far too many. CAN LOVE CONQUER ALL? Some might say it's just in theory only, it's not really true, but the question is in many tests in Angeleica's Revenge. Will an inter-racial love relationship between African American and Hispanic gang members solve the problem or add fire to the flames?
