Power Preview: Three Moves Ahead

ByElaine G. Flores, Chief Editor

I’ll say this for Ghost St. Patrick, the man is an optimist. Just because, he’s a drug distributor and Angie Valdes,  the love of his life is a fed assigned to a drug task force, does not stand in the way of his dreams for them. Ghost and TommyHe thinks he can just walk away from his surly wife Tasha, and the criminal enterprise that his made him a wealthy man. He thinks his loose-cannon friend, partner and dragon is just going to let all that happen despite the fact that the maniac tried to kill Angie, is loyal to Tasha and loves his outlaw lifestyle. Unlike Ghost, Tommy does not seem to have higher aspirations. He does not want to run off to the Eden Roc Miami Beach, a luxury resort, and spa where he can spend all his time running his hands through Angie’s full-bodied chestnut tresses, which stand up to Miami humidity, the rain and all manner of inclement weather. Here’s a sneak peek at the next episode.

    ByElaine G. Flores, Chief Editor

    When Angela Valdes strolled into Truth, James “Ghost” St. Patrick’s nightclub, the high school sweethearts had a lot of catching up to do. Angie was assigned to an FBI drug task force hunting an upper-tier drug distributor named “Ghost.” In other words, Agent Valdes was unwittingly looking to nab her boyfriend. Angie sabotaged the FBI case so that Jamie could walk away from his criminal past and spend his days running his fingers through her magnificent chestnut tresses. Mexican cartel leader Lobos was a bother so G.had to team up with Tommy Egan, who is G.’s business, partner, dragon and white soul brother to whack Lobos. Too bad Tommy’s girlfriend Holly jumped the gun and inserted herself into the situation; a pissed off Tommy ended the relationship by strangling Holly with his bare hands. He feels bad but, sorry Tommy, no backsies.

    Reunited high school sweethearts Jamie “Ghost” St. Patrick and Angela Valdes are in love. Their romance is like a screwball comedy. He’s a successful drug-distributor, she is an ambitious federal agent. Tommy Egan is Jamie’s friend, partner and dragon. Angie has been searching for a shadowy figure named Ghost and wants to believe that Tommy is that man, although she has reason to suspect her lover. It’s all one raucous comedy. Let’s go!

    When Angela Valdes sauntered into James “Ghost” St. Patrick’s nightclub, the high school sweethearts picked up where they left off. Everything was perfect. Angie was part of an FBI task force investigating a mystery man called Ghost. Drug distributor Jamie goes by the street name Ghost. Oh, and Jamie is married to Tasha. And Tommy Egan–Ghost’s business partner, dragon and white soul brother–is loyal to Tasha and detests Angie and her magnificent chestnut tresses. Angie thought she finally figured out who Ghost is–Tommy. Once she learned the truth, she did what any federal agent would do: destroy evidence. Have you seen Jamie? It was worth it. In doing so, Angie messed things up for her stalkerish former boyfriend Agent Greg Knox, who hates Jamie. Things are so much different now, except that Jamie is still married and not telling Angie everything about his professional life, and Agent Knox is still following Angie around and determined to bring down Jamie.

    When Angela Valdes strolled into James “Ghost” St. Patrick’s nightclub, the high school sweethearts had a lot of catching up to do. Angie was on an FBI drug task force looking to nab a major drug distributor named “Ghost.” As it turns out, being a nightclub owner is Jamie’s day job. Well, technically, it’s his night job. In any case, his real job is being Ghost. It all worked out so now Jamie can spend his days stroking Angie’s magnificent chestnut tresses. Jamie will never be involved with crime again, pinky-swear. Jamie also patched things up with Tommy Egan, his business, partner, dragon and white soul brother. Drug lord Lobos ordered Tommy to kill Ghost, but he didn’t do it so Holly, Tommy’s girlfriend, arranged a hit so she and Tommy could get on with their lives. When Tommy found out, he was a bit peeved and choked Holly to death. Ghost was there to bury the body because that’s how love works.
