Deborah's wounded heart was an untended fortress, but Jonah was willing to endure any siege to breach it. From the shadows, however, Duke Markus watched their growing connection with a creeping, obsessive madness. He would stop at nothing to shatter their bond and claim her for himself. And he will cross any line to make it happen. - A ten year old violin prodigy was trapped inside of a popular brothel named The Flower's Garden. With a burst of courage, she and two other girls planned their escape. Yet, their defiance was met with death and blood. But Daniel Wellinger, a respected apothecary, found one of the girls alive and took her home. He nursed her back to health and gave her a new life, a new name - Deborah. Despite the racial prejudices in the country of Briersberg, Deborah grew like a flower under Daniel's protective care. Her new goal is to be a professional musician, but she must fight to achieve this in a world that is set against her. During an outing, Deborah captures the attention of Jonah Watson, the spirited son of the duke's personal physician. He shows her a tender love of which she had never experienced. But would she accept this affection or would the abuse she suffered make her push him away? Her music also tickled the ears of Duke Markus Beaufort, a sickly noble haunted by inner demons. Her songs soothed his mind and brought color to his otherwise dull existence. Yet, what began as fascination soon morphed into a dark obsession. Deborah sought freedom through music; he sought to possess her because of it. Markus watches the pair with cold eyes, unwilling to let her go. Deborah was a valuable light he desired to consume. He has one goal: "I must destroy her if I'm to have her." Torn between a man who'd do anything for her and a man who'd do anything to get her, Deborah must fight for the career, freedom, and love she truly deserves. #3 in Black Woman 8/9/26 #3 in Safe Love 8/9/26

I dragged my nails lightly over his chest, slow, my eyes locked on his. "You told me I was in control, remember?" My voice dipped lower, sultry, daring. I leaned close enough that my lips brushed his ear. "Then say it, baby. Say you're my bitch." A dark laugh rumbled from his lips, low and sinful, the kind that made my stomach flip. His eyes didn't waver, didn't blink. "I'm your bitch," he said...calm, but hot as fuck. The words rolled off his tongue like he'd been waiting to say them, and God, the way he said it almost made me melt right there.

BOOK 4 "Fuck, Carmen," I growl, gripping her locs tight, forcing her down until her nose presses into my abdomen. "Choke on that d-k, filthy a** slut. You love being my little cock-hungry bitch, don't you?"
