Keeps you on the edge of your seat.” —AISHA GUMBY, Philadelphia's Operation manager, DON DIVA Ever wonder if the man in your life who’s been incarcerated, turned to another with an alternative lifestyle for comfort? Meet Candy Sweets, a teenaged, pre-op transsexual who gets arrested and sent to federal prison, one week before her scheduled sex-change operation. Still having male organs, Candy is housed with strong, masculine, handsome male inmates who haven’t touched a woman in years. Candy soon finds herself being caught in several love affairs with men having families, girlfriends and wives at home—waiting for them to be released. Yet, Candy doesn’t kiss and tell, she understands the code of silence: what happens in prison stays in prison... CONVICT’S CANDY deals with sexual identity, prostitution and homosexuality within the prison system, the interactions and relationships between the inmates and officers, infidelity and most importantly, explains how the HIV virus spreads rampantly within the prison. It also reveals how the dangerous and deadly disease is transmitted within society, when infected inmates are released to go home. CONVICT’S CANDY, the new controversial novel by DAMON “AMIN” MEADOWS and JASON POOLE, Essence bestseller of LARCENY. CONVICT’S CANDY—A GHETTOHEAT® PRODUCTION. ISBN 0-9742982-2-0. DAMON “AMIN” MEADOWS was born and raised in South Philadelphia and is the proud father of two beautiful daughters. In 1993, he was tried and sentenced to life without the possibility of parole, being only a first-time offender. Through AMIN’s faith in Allah, he has been successful in the appellant process, given a release date that will grant AMIN his freedom in the near future. JASON POOLE was born and raised in Washington, DC and is the proud father of a teenaged son. He’s also the Essence Magazine best-selling author of LARCENY, writing the novel while serving time in prison. In 1996, JASON POOLE was incarcerated on a drug violation charge, currently serving an illegal sentence due to an erroneous enhancement; awaiting appellate relief any day now. “M-M-M-M-M-M…NOTHING'S SWEETER THAN CANDY!” Yes, HUSTLIN’ HICKSON is still on the loose!!!
