Certainly the first American city I think of when I see the word 'Gangsta' is....Oklahoma City. Yes, I can imagine it's 'urban' population is just sprawling.

book jacket

"The Network and its affiliates used to be one of Oklahoma City's most organized crews. No one knew exactly where they got the money to buy up businesses and real estate, but everyone on the streets respected them. Their criminal enterprise is unraveling quickly, though, as member loyalty is challenged and betrayal becomes the name of the game."--P. [4] of cover.

Surely if Jane Austen was alive today she would've spiced up Pride & Prejudice with a bit more bodice ripping

book jacket

Pride and prejudice : hidden lusts / Mitzi Szereto

"Imagine that Jane Austen had written the opening line of her satirical novel Pride and Prejudice this way: "It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a good romp and a good wife - although not necessarily from the same person or from the opposite sex." In Pride and Prejudice: Hidden Lusts Mr. Darcy has never been more devilish and the seemingly chaste Elizabeth never more turned on. The entire cast of characters from Austen's classic is here in this rewrite that goes all the way. This time Mr. Bingley and his sister both have designs on Mr. Darcy's manhood; Elizabeth's BFF Charlotte marries their family's strange relation and stumbles upon a secret world of feminine relations more to her liking; and, in this telling, men are not necessarily the only dominating sex. And of course there's some good old fashioned bodice ripping that shows no pride or prejudice and reveals hot hidden lusts in every page-turning chapter"-- Provided by publisher.

Look, I know no one reads this thing, but it gives me my own sad pleasure.  The frickin' RSS is down.  YOUR tax dollars, hard at work ya'll.  (yeah, right...)
