Built on Lies

By Nichole Stewart and Jalil Mixx

Quintrell Jones thought that going from drug dealer to inmate to entrepreneur was transformative but he had no idea how meeting an artist from the middle of nowhere could change his life. As the owner of a tow truck company, former inmate number 486321 has done quite well for himself. Putting a life of crime firmly in his rearview mirror, his windshield shows nothing but expansion and growth for his enterprise. Quintrell was not one for emotional entanglements so his women were many and easy. As soon as they start showing signs of attachment, they must go. Charlotte Gibbs was happy with her paint, clay, and reclaimed everything. With her mind set on living a life of creative bliss, meeting someone new was nowhere on her radar. Charlotte's penchant for saying exactly what's on her mind; which does not work well for a man like Quintrell. He, being a man of action and few words, tends to keep things bottled up. A flat tire in the middle of a darkened highway is the catalyst for what could be a beautiful disaster. Could Charlotte's zaniness serve a purpose other than free expression? Will Quintrell be able to overcome his past so that he can embrace his future? Does a middle of the road even exist for such different ways of being in the world? Quintrell and Charlotte both must redefine their ideas of family and come to grips with their personal realities while being there for each other.Built on Lies is a love story that will make you laugh and cry and ask all the reasons why. You will cheer for the main characters as they take you on a journey of love and loss, tragedy and triumph. It will demonstrate how overcoming your own demons is the greatest of challenges that life can hand you but how holding the hand of the person you love while doing so, makes the victory all the sweeter.
