Guilty By Association - The Jamieson Legacy
Author: Pat Simmons

The Jamieson Family Legacy series follow the lives of the two Jamieson brothers in Boston, Kidd and Ace and their cousin Cameron from St. Louis. While Kidd, the older brother, is struggling with anger and resentment issues toward his absentee father who never married his mother, but had the audacity to demand his illegitimate sons... more » carry his Jamieson last name. Ace, on the other hand, is on his collision course to be a chip off the old block when it comes to women. Their highly educated MIT graduate, Cameron Jamieson, is all about saving family from self-destruction. Through genealogy research, Cameron's mission is to show his cousins their worth as the eleventh generation descendants of a royal African tribe and give them a choice: stay the stereotypical angry black men or fight obstacles to become strong successful black men.

The three books in the series: Guilty by Association (Kidd's story), The Guilt Trip (Ace's story), and Free from Guilt (Cameron's story), feature the three Jamieson men who have to accept that the past and the present are all in God's hand and without Him they can't advance to their future blessings. The bonus storyline is one that progresses the story of the much-loved character in the previous three book Guilty Series, Grandma B.B and she picks up a sidekick, Mrs. Valentine.

Guilty by Association is the story of Boston bad boy Kevin "Kidd" Jamieson. His gripe is with his father who dared to insist that his two illegitimate sons carry his last name. To add insult to injury, the man never bothered to stick around to give love and guidance as his boys matured into men. Kidd's anger overflows into every area of his life. As his animosity festers, Kidd becomes as a roaring lion, seeking whatever and whomever he can devour. He's as gritty as his cousin in St. Louis, Parke Jamieson VI, is polished. The two strong-willed men clash when Kidd relocates to St. Louis where his cousin assures him it's a land of milk and money in job opportunities. Where is lands a job is far from it.

Through a series of events that involve Grandma BB, her dog named Silent Killer and her Stacy Adams shoes, Kidd meets two women who recognize his hostile tendencies and immediately begin to administer CPR to his soul. LPN Eva Savoy eventually becomes his "Eve," a woman God created from the underlying goodness hidden in Kidd's own heart.

Reluctantly, Kidd allows Parke to divulge information about their royal family heritage. While everyone's care and compassion begins to smother Kidd, he struggles to keep up the bad boy attitude as his walls start to crumble. Kidd learns it's not his association with the name that identifies him, but the man he becomes that defines him.

Faith J. (faitho1) reviewed Guilty By Association (The Jamieson Legacy) on 5/11/2012 + 3 more book reviews

The characters in this book were interesting and funny. Howver, the storyline was pretty predictable and too drawn out. I had a very hard time finishing this book. Totally not what I expected, especially by the title.
