"You ever ran from one kind of trap just to land in another?" When Sarai Daniels escapes her abusive boyfriend in the dead of night-lip busted, ribs sore, and heart racing-she boards a Greyhound to Decatur, Georgia, with nothing but a prepaid phone and a prayer. Her only plan? Find the boy who used to share his snack cakes and defend her from bullies back in fifth grade-Eastland "East" Riggins. But East ain't a boy no more. Now, he runs his side of Decatur with silent power and sharp precision. On paper, he's the founder of a successful security firm. But in the streets? East's name rings out. And in his home-tucked in a quiet cul-de-sac off Wesley Chapel-he rules with discipline and devotion. When Sarai shows up on his doorstep bruised and broken, East takes her in without question. But it's not just him she's living with. Asha, his elegant and serene wife, greets her like family. Nyelle, the other woman in the house with the sharp tongue and mean walk, barely hides her attitude. It doesn't take long for Sarai to realize the truth: East doesn't have a wife. He has two. And the way they look at her? Like she's about to become the third. She came to Decatur for safety. But this house? This life? It's full of rituals, rules, and rewards. Asha cooks like a first lady. Nyelle handles the guns. And East? East listens more than he talks-and when he does talk, it's in a voice that commands obedience and melts resistance. He offers her comfort, control, and sensual discipline. But there's a price. In East's house, every woman belongs to him. And Sarai's body is starting to understand that before her mind can catch up.

In Harlem, his name is etched into sidewalk whispers and alleyway legends-Pablo, the ghost who rose from fire. Once a forgotten foster kid bouncing between shelters and cells, Zachariah Mulatto forged his name in smoke and strategy. With a diamond-tipped smile and ice-cold eyes, Pablo doesn't just run blocks-he manipulates whole boroughs like a chessboard. But power this pure always comes with a curse. Behind the muscle cars, penthouse parties, and bulletproof bravado lies Zachariah-a man whose trauma speaks louder than his reputation. Years ago, a betrayal inside a Harlem group home left him for dead and erased the only family he ever knew. Now, he rules the city not for wealth, but for revenge... slowly, methodically, beautifully orchestrated. Then enters Neveah Brown-a Harlem-born artist and activist fresh from Paris, back home to heal her roots. She's all paint-stained fingers, political poetry, and defiant softness. She sees through Pablo's armor from day one-and calls him by his real name. She doesn't fear his ghosts. She just wants to know who they are. But Neveah's return isn't coincidence-it's part of a secret buried in Pablo's past. A secret tied to the night that made him a monster, and the truth about who really betrayed him. As enemies close in and Harlem's streets boil with blood and ambition, Zachariah finds himself at a brutal crossroads: protect his empire and finally take his revenge... or burn it all down for a chance at the love and peace he never thought he'd deserve. PABLO is a lyrical, high-stakes urban tragedy steeped in survival, romance, and identity-a love story tangled in hood politics, street justice, and the cost of healing when your past is the thing hunting you.

"There's always a price for everything, including life. Men pay millions for power and knowledge. But a wiser one would kill to know even your silliest thoughts." Zaviero De Santis, The Maestro. *** Zaviero They call me The Maestro, for sinister reasons. You see, corruption and depravity sings in my soul, an unending melody into darkness. As the Don, the Italian underworld is my brutal symphony and my heart? A callous stone that beats only for vengeance. When I am faced with the task of producing an heir, I already know who my bride is. Her. The girl I left behind. Kaira He was my best friend, an almost lover. Until a dark tragedy tore us apart. Now, he's back with an ultimatum I had no idea of-get married to him or face the dire consequences. And this time, he's more savage. Dangerous. Wicked. While I tell myself I am done with the blood stained lies and the gory secrets, those silver eyes of his, reveal a different story. Beneath that ruthless exterior is a boy who once held my heart. And now, a naive part of me is drawn to the sensual pleasures he promises. To the fiery touch of sin. His sins. But in a world where betrayal is currency and love begets weakness, loving him might come at a dark cost-my life. An 18+ Dark Mafia Arranged Marriage (Book 1 of The Touch of Sinners)

We bid our time behind bars, planned and prepared for the day we got out. Now we're free and hungry for redemption. I know what must be done. I know whose blood will be spilled. But before I go after him, I'll go after his daughter. I never said I play fair. *Book one in the Marino Brothers Duet. Rated 18+ due to explicit language, sex, and violence.*
