{"product_id":"blake-university-hbcu-series-lyrie-and-bleu","title":"Blake University: HBCU Series-Lyrie and Bleu","description":"In the prestigious Black community of Cove City, Georgia, two Blake University alumni are about to be honored at their university's Heritage Ball—but past events and a looming current threat have the potential to taint the upcoming celebration and destroy everything their families built.\n\nLyrie Jacobs-Stallings was once a platinum-selling R\u0026amp;B artist with three albums, international tours, and Grammy nominations. Now 40, married to her college sweetheart and running \"Lyrie's Everything\" café, she would say she has a wonderful life. So, when she learns she's being honored at her alma mater and Rhythm \u0026amp; Blues Magazine wants to feature her story, her current quiet and happy life may be headed for chaos—again.\n\nBleu Stallings, CEO of the multi-billion-dollar Stallings Real Estate empire, never stopped loving the woman who disappeared from his life after college. Forced to move on without her, he focused on building the family empire. When fate aligned and Lyrie came back into his life—along with trials and tribulations—he wasted no time strategizing to fix the problems and reclaim her. Now he too has learned he is being honored at the Heritage Ball alongside his wife. What should be a time of celebration is riddled with strife: his wife's concern about past mistakes and their impact on her reputation, and anonymous letters threatening to expose a deadly family secret.\n\nSet against the backdrop of Blake University's prestigious HBCU legacy and Cove City's affluent Black community, this dual-timeline romance explores how love endures through trials and tribulations, proving that some storms only make love stronger.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0FH2NV6G3\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.B0FH2NV6G3.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Rochelle, Tabitha\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book has little sign of wear or use  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Blue Vase Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43336790999101,"sku":"BVV.B0FH2NV6G3.VG","price":20.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/B0FH2NV6G3-0.jpg?v=1783807054","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/blake-university-hbcu-series-lyrie-and-bleu","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
