Her eyes dipped down to my lips before beginning to trail her hand up to my neck, "You want to make her jealous?" she asked, but it sounded more like a statement. I only nodded, looking up at her intently as her hand trailed closer to my lips. When her thumb swiped across my lip I didn't think twice before sliding it into my mouth. And she kept her heavy stare on me while I swirled my tongue across her finger. Leaving a thin string of saliva as she pulled out of my mouth completely. "Can you fuck me better?" I questioned, watching as she rubbed her thumb and forefinger together. I stared intently as her expression remained mixed, becoming increasingly harder for me to read. "I can show you better than I can tell you," the mysterious woman replied, her voice so unbelievably attractive. The only thing I did was squeeze my thighs together at her words. "Show me then." ⌖ Valentina Alvarez is Houston's top private investigator, but she doesn't say yes to just any case. After taking on a homicide, she gets pulled into something bigger.

What should have stayed strictly business becomes intimate, charged, and impossible to forget. *** [LONGER VERSION] Roman Alvarez is infamous in the publishing world: cruel, uncompromising, and brilliant enough to get away with it. As the first Black and female CEO of Bloom Press, she has built her career on steel walls and impossible standards. Kaalia Amoretta, the new assistant editor hired to support her, expects a tyrant.

When Bloom's newest release hinges on securing a reclusive poet's anthology, Roman and Kaalia go on a "working vacation" to India. But what should have been a straightforward business trip unravels into something far more dangerous: monsoon-soaked nights, shared secrets, and a slow-burning tension neither woman can ignore. Under tropical skies and an old woman's poetry on love and colonialism, their professional boundaries blur, their walls crack, and a tender, terrifying love begins to take shape. But as they return to New York-with media storms rising, a billion-dollar lawsuit looming, and family expectations closing in-the real question emerges: Can a love born far from reality survive the world waiting for them? *** A sweeping, sapphic, slow-burn romance and the kind of love worth risking everything.
