When all you know is what you were taught by parents and friends that are ignorant to the world, you grow up to be a man like Riley Pranger, a passive racist and chauvinistic. But Riley is going to get a fast re-education when a single black mother rents his home for the summer and he has no choice but to recognize the actions of the people around him. 

Stella Burton is a no nonsense, 6-foot tall curvaceous black woman who has no problem with hurting a man’s ego. She is opinionated, specifically about a country where she has been single handedly raising her multi-racial son to be a well-rounded black man. 

What happens when white privilege is suddenly challenged? When races clash and you mess with the wrong black woman? This novella contains twists and turns and sexiness as well as appearances from Lt. Christopher Jameson, Ashleigh and their children from the novel Beast, Bodie and Shaundea Matthews from A Wrong Turn Towards Love and True from True’s love. 

Warning: This story includes sexual situations, graphic and strong racist and homophobic language. This story discusses American politics and race relations in a fictional setting.

The Miseducation of Riley Pranger

They sat down to a lunch of tomato soup and sandwiches. Mrs. Jameson apologized that it wasn‘t anything special but Stella told her that it was indeed special because it meant that she didn‘t have to prepare lunch.


Adam watched Brianna‘s dad load his sandwich with ham, roast beef, and turkey. And then he added slices of tomato, lettuce, onions, mustard and mayo. He mimicked him and his mother warned that he had better eat all that he put on his plate. Adam assured her that he would but she ended up splitting half of the sandwich with him and then having some soup.


When the baby woke up Christopher put him in his high chair and they laughed at the mess that he made with his little cup of soup and crackers.


Brianna was a chatterbox and once they discovered that Adam was learning Japanese he was persuaded to share some words and phrases with them.
