He's loved by millions but understood by few. Chris Brown father, icon, and flawed man is used to keeping people at a distance. Women come and go, the spotlight never dims, and the pain behind his smile stays tucked away where no one can reach it. Until her. She's not impressed by his fame. She doesn't ask for tickets, clout, or access just conversation. Peace. Time. A friendship forms that feels like freedom. And maybe, just maybe, the beginning of something real. But love doesn't come easy for a man who's been burned and watched the world judge him for every scar. This time, the story goes beyond the mic.

New Rules. Time for some Damage Control.

𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐊 𝐓𝐖𝐎 ⌖ 𝙨𝙖𝙬𝙚𝙚𝙩𝙞𝙚 𝙭 𝙘𝙝𝙧𝙞𝙨 𝙗𝙧𝙤𝙬𝙣. ❦ | 𝐔𝐑𝐁𝐀𝐍 𝐅𝐈𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 . ᶜʰʳⁱᵃᵐᵒⁿᵗᵉ ʳᵉᵃˡ ᵍʰᵉᵗᵗᵒ Five years ago, Iris walked away from the wreckage with blood on her hands & survival on her mind. Loving Jasiah had been like standing too close to a fire-warm at first, until the flames started to reach for her throat. When the law finally took him, she mourned him like someone dead, convinced that whatever they once shared was too dangerous to ever be resurrected. To save herself, she didn't just leave him behind-she buried the love entirely, believing some things had to be killed before they killed you. In the years that followed, Iris rebuilt. She built a life that was quiet, more structured, & way more safe with her husband & two growing children. A life where Jasiah Syncere Brown existed only in court records & steel bars. Prison was supposed to be a long sentence, guaranteed that the past would stay where it belonged. But the past didn't stay buried. Jasiah returned home years earlier than anyone expected, his arrival shattering the order Iris painstakingly built. But he didn't come back kind-he came back ruthless, upending everything in his path. Old wounds ripped open, & the man she once loved, the man she hated, the man she never truly escaped, was suddenly real again, standing back in the same city, back breathing the same air.

𝐆𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐃 : Haile and Kaiden's love story was one that would often appeared in her nightmares, it was one that allowed love and hatred to coexist, where resentment seemed to become routine until there was no escaping but it was also something that Haile couldn't stir away from. She was only twenty years old when she was forced to leave Kaiden behind but after five years and a trip granted from the universe, she slipped into his grasp and fell victim to love once more; attempting to give their relationship another try. "Growing up.. I've heard that grief is the final act of love. If I have to grieve you for the rest of my life, Haile, I'm prepared."

"In a city built on fire and secrets, love might be the most dangerous game of all." Heat Check blends the sexy tension with the grittiness of urban Miami, where pride hits harder than bullets and love feels like war. It's about two people with fire in their veins who were never meant to fall for each other-but do anyway.

Best friends turned lovers.

An unlikely pair, Sybil & Syre find themselves being pulled toward the other by an undeniable force. They both have decided that they hate each other but over time that "hate" turns into something else all together. As it turns out, these two wounded souls are just what the other needs to heal. Childhood trauma haunting Syre has left him in a loner mentality, and angry at the world. He trusts no one, and cares for nothing. For Sybil, she craves love but after surviving the abuse of an ex, has come to the conclusion that true love is just a myth. Will their paths crossing mean tragedy? Or will they finally find what the other has been missing all along?
