Step into a world where passion ignites, emotions run deep, and stories unfold like never before. "When Dogs Bark 2" is not just a book; it's a literary journey that will keep you hooked from the very first page.

From the sizzling narrative of "The 520i" to the unforgettable "Cheeseburger," and the much-talked-about short story "When Dogs Bark," this collection is a masterful blend of compelling tales and evocative poetry. But this isn't just a reprint; "When Dogs Bark 2" is a fresh, invigorating experience. New stories and poetry await, ready to make you ponder and go "Hmm."

If you thought "BARK" was hot, "BARK 2" is scorching. We recommend reading it in air-conditioned rooms because the stories are as steamy as they are thought-provoking. Why do women cry like saxophones? What secrets lie in the pages of "How I Got Over," a poem brimming with fierce revenge? Dive into Promise's diary entry, where she reminisces about a rainy day playing "husband" and "wife" with her childhood friend Lakeisha Ann. And when you're done, pass it on to your friends, male or female, who crave a raw and real literary experience.

Ladies, this book isn't just for you; it's for everyone who seeks a powerful, transformative read. Brothers, "When Dogs Bark 2" is your book. It's rated R for the Real and mature readers who crave substance in their literature. "Cruising in the Name of Love" is not your typical church play. Donny's monologue takes you on a journey through love in the mall, a message that transcends boundaries and speaks to the human experience.

The stunning cover will captivate your eyes, and the words will linger in your hearts. As James V. Thomas, a Scenic Designer, says, Charles Harvey is always "interesting, fun, funny, and provocative." This book promises to be no different, with fresh material that will leave you hungry for more.
